L'Homme À la Rose
L'Homme À la Rose by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2020 in the luxury price tier. It opens with grapefruit and damask rose, moves into rose de mai and violet and dries down to amber, musk and cedarwood. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
Heart
- Rose de Mai Softer, honeyed May rose. Expensive and unmistakably natural.
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
