More about Maison Francis Kurkdjian Lumière Noire Pour Femme
Lumière Noire Pour Femme is Francis Kurkdjian's 2009 chypre floral — a sophisticated study in shadow and light. Rose stands at the heart, but it is no innocent rose: smoldering pepper and cumin lend an animalic spice, while narcissus and lily of the valley bring an unexpected aromatic green nuance. Patchouli, balsam, and orris build a dark, resinous foundation. A fragrance for the woman who finds beauty in contrasts — refined yet brooding, classical yet provocatively modern.
