Maison Francis Kurkdjian

For the past three years, Maison Francis Kurkdjian has cultivated a distinguished dialogue between art and design for its esteemed teams, fostered with the Centre Pompidou.   In 2026, this significant engagement evolves. The Maison proudly presents, at the Jeu de Paume, "The Art of (Re)Thinking: AI at a Safe Distance" — an immersive experience pairing Martin Parr’s compelling exhibition with a bespoke masterclass dedicated to artificial intelligence.

Starting May 9, the Perfumer’s Garden will reopen every weekend. Created at Château de Versailles in 2023 thanks to the patronage of Maison Francis Kurkdjian, this garden located in the Orangerie of Châteauneuf brings together hundreds of fragrant plants in the heart of the Trianon estate, the birthplace of the perfumer’s craft as early as the 17th century. Created through the collaboration between the Trianon gardeners and Francis Kurkdjian, and supported by the expertise of Alain Baraton and his teams, it features historical plants, original essences, and so-called “silent” flowers. Organized into three distinct areas, it offers a sensory journey through contrasting atmospheres, botanical collections, and more intimate garden spaces. An immersion into the expertise and craftsmanship of perfume creation. Discover : https://lnkd.in/epQTaXNe #maisonfranciskurkdjian

Following the opening of the Perfumer's Garden in 2023, Maison Francis Kurkdjian strengthens its patronage with the Palace of Versailles by supporting the creation of the Biodiversity Observatory. This scientific project aims to list, study, and preserve the environmental heritage through four observation themes: inventory of fauna & flora, biosurveillance of beehives, and water quality studies of basins and fountains. By its very nature, perfumery is intimately linked to nature and its biodiversity. A large part of this art relies on the use of natural ingredients in the composition of perfumes. Protecting biodiversity, preserving ecological balances, and studying their evolution in the face of climate change is ensuring the transmission of this heritage and the future of perfumery.

Her journey, a testament to passion, perseverance, and exceptional leadership skills, including a mastery of vision, coordination, and collective inspiration, resonated deeply. The discussion was expertly guided by the insightful moderation of executive coach Jody Malbouef Julien.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian is proud to announce that Baccarat Rouge 540 Édition Millésime has received an Innovation Award at Paris Packaging Week, recognizing the integration of a refillable pump system within a hand-blown crystal bottle. Two symbols in French-style excellence – Maison Francis Kurkdjian and Maison Baccarat – came together for this exclusive creation. Brought to its ultimate expression, the exceptional sillage is housed in an equally magnificent case that pairs perfuming artistry with crystal-making expertise. Crafted according to the highest standards, the Édition Millésime bottle and its crystal base required over 500 hours of work, mobilizing 19 artisans, including 4 Meilleurs Ouvriers de France and two Knights of the French Order of Arts and Letters. Developed over more than two years, this ambitious project illustrates the convergence of heritage craftsmanship and bold modernity, pushing the boundaries of crystal-making and perfumery alike.
