Description
With Absolue Pour le Soir, created in 2009, Maison Francis Kurkdjian delivered one of perfumery's most daring oriental interpretations. The name — 'absolute for the evening' — makes clear that this creation speaks exclusively to the darker hours.
Spanish labdanum and orange open the fragrance with a staging that belongs to the most refined chapters of classical oriental perfumery. Together these two notes open a deep, almost leather-warm resinous space.
The heart pairing of lavender and Siam benzoin adds exceptional depth; the vanilla-like sweetness of benzoin dancing with the cool florality of lavender conjures a midnight garden.
The base of amber, vanilla, tonka bean and cedar creates a legendary sillage with 12+ hour performance. An essential addition to any wholesale perfume portfolio, this signature stands at the apex of the evening fragrance category.
