Sustainable Commitments

Maison Francis Kurkdjian was co-founded by Francis Kurkdjian and Marc Chaya, two individuals who share a common vision but also each bring a unique perspective on the urgent need to restore perfume's sense of luxury: nobility and durability of materials, respect for creation and the time it demands. The most precious will always remain what is inside the bottle, and not its adornments.


True to its original vision, the Maison has defined its sustainable commitments with a conviction: it is within the limits of resources that creation flourishes. It compels us to provide innovative solutions, to adopt sustainable practices compatible with planetary boundaries.

Vision of the Co-Founders

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Paris


« True luxury? Dematerialized.

It's clean air, silence, space.

I am a perfumer who creates perfumes, I am not a perfume bottle designer. The most precious material is the liquid inside. »

Francis Kurkdjian



« True luxury? To be reinvented.

I would like us to return to our beginnings and recreate the art of gifting and perfuming oneself, by borrowing less from nature and giving more to others. »
