Maison Francis Kurkdjian A La Rose

Maison Francis Kurkdjian A La Rose is a feminine Eau de Parfum from 2014 that presents rose in a bright, joyful, and utterly beautiful way. Created by one of the world's most celebrated perfumers, this fragrance takes two of the finest roses, Bulgarian and Grasse, and frames them with citrus, violet, and magnolia.

It is the rose fragrance for people who want to smell like actual roses at their most radiant. The opening pairs Calabrian bergamot and California orange, providing a bright, sunny citrus frame.

The bergamot adds warm, Italian sunshine quality, while the orange is sweet and juicy. Together they create an uplifting introduction that makes the rose feel fresh and modern rather than old-fashioned.

The heart is pure rose perfection with Bulgarian rose and Grasse rose joined by violet and magnolia. The two roses complement each other beautifully, Bulgarian rose bringing its rich, honeyed character and Grasse rose adding a more delicate, dewy quality.

Violet contributes gentle powdery sweetness, and magnolia adds a creamy, slightly lemony floral quality. This heart is as close to smelling a perfect real rose as perfumery can achieve.

The base settles into musk and cedar, providing a subtle foundation that supports the roses without competing. Musk adds a soft, skin-like quality that makes the fragrance feel natural and intimate.

Cedar contributes just a whisper of woody warmth. The base is deliberately minimal, keeping the focus entirely on the beautiful roses above.

A La Rose is a spring and summer staple that works beautifully for daytime and evening. It is perfect for garden parties, romantic occasions, and any moment when you want to feel elegantly feminine.

For rose lovers seeking the purest, most beautiful expression of this timeless flower, A La Rose is essential.
