Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir Sample Decant

Warm Ambery Resinous Glow: Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir Eau de Parfum

Immerse yourself in the golden hour of a Parisian evening with Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir, a 2016 creation from the French maison (unisex, amber oriental, enveloping warmth)—composed by Francis Kurkdjian as an ode to twilight and intimate gatherings, blending rich resins, sweet vanilla, and glowing amber into a luminous, comforting embrace. Celebrated as one of the most addictive ambers in modern perfumery with prominent amber radiant sweetness, vanilla creamy depth, and benzoin balsamic richness, it's praised for its velvety, skin-like warmth—merging golden resinous glow with subtle spicy accents, addictive coziness, and exceptional longevity in a timeless, luxurious composition.

This glowing elixir opens with a soft, luminous burst of amber and bergamot for warm, radiant lift that's inviting and slightly citrusy, then unfolds into a heart of labdanum and tonka bean for deep, balsamic-sweet layers that feel opulent and comforting, finally settling into a base of vanilla, benzoin, and musk for creamy, resinous warmth with lingering sensual trail. It’s ambery yet sweet, warm yet luminous, rich yet wearable—like amber-bergamot glow over labdanum-tonka resin, enveloped in vanilla-benzoin that lingers as a golden, intimate aura.

It awakens with amber-bergamot—radiant, warm, and subtly citrusy with golden lift. The heart reveals labdanum and tonka bean, crafting a deep, balsamic-sweet core that’s opulent and captivating. It dries down to a lush, enduring vanilla-benzoin-musk finish—creamy, resinous, and softly animalic—delivering a smooth, mesmerizing trail that’s unisex, luxurious, and endlessly comforting.

Fragrance Notes – A Warm Ambery Resinous Glow

• Top Notes: Amber, Bergamot — Radiant amber sweetness fused with gentle citrus brightness for warm, luminous opening.
• Heart Notes: Labdanum, Tonka Bean — Deep balsamic resin blended with creamy, hay-like tonka sweetness and subtle spice.
• Base Notes: Vanilla, Benzoin, Musk — Rich creamy vanilla anchored in balsamic benzoin and clean, skin-like musk warmth.

Frequently hailed as a cornerstone of MFK's amber collection—amber-radiant dominant, vanilla-creamy iconic, benzoin-balsamic standout, with a strikingly cozy yet sophisticated vibe—Grand Soir is described as uniting a glowing amber opening, resinous heart, and creamy-woody base (often praised as a "liquid gold embrace," warm yet balanced, with luminous lift and enveloping depth). It’s a versatile cooler-season star (ideal for fall/winter daytime coziness or evening elegance, perfect from intimate gatherings to special occasions) that consistently draws compliments for its potent projection, enveloping sillage, and magnetic allure.

Performance as an Eau de Parfum: 10-14+ hours longevity (evolves masterfully from amber burst to creamy-resinous skin scent), strong projection (generous yet refined trail), and exceptional staying power—transitioning seamlessly into a persistent, sensual embrace. Devotees rave about its premium resin-vanilla harmony, masterful warm balance, and luxurious comfort, though some note its bold sweetness—ideal for those seeking enveloping amber scents with radiant depth and creamy richness.
