safe & trusted since 1999

The art of fragrance made easy. Inspired by life itself, the Aqua Vitae Maison Francis Kurkdjian eau de toilette is sensually full bodied by nature and delicate by essence. It scents the skin to become one with the wearer. This citrusy scent tickles the senses and wakes you with lemon from Calabria, mandarins from Sicily, hedione, vanilla absolute, tonka bean and gaiac wood. The delicious whisper of Aqua Vitae eau de toilette consumes the space between you and the other triggering an irresistible urge to plant tender kisses on the neck.

At the beginning of January in Sicily, the fields of mandarin trees offer an almost unreal landscape. Rows of green shrubs punctuated by orangey yellow fruits spreading as far as the eye can see between sea and mountains. This Citrus reticulata was imported from Asia at the beginning of the 19th century. According to legend, its name came from its color, identical to the ceremonial dresses of Chinese Mandarins. The fragrant compounds contained in its peel are extracted by cold expression to obtain its oil. This variety has citrusy, zesty but also green, sweet and slightly sulphurous facets. This sparkling and joyful top note enhances a Cologne and energizes an oriental perfume.

Aqua Vitae by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance for women and men. Aqua Vitae was launched in 2013.
