Francis Kurkdjian

"Coloratura is a rare Eau de Parfum created as a limited Maison Francis Kurkdjian release in 2012. Its fragrance character moves from sparkling mandarin and Sicilian lemon into an airy bouquet of lily-of-the-valley, peony, white lily, and rose. Vetiver and ambergris provide a clean, mineral, lightly earthy foundation. The overall effect is luminous, transparent, and floral rather than dense or opulent. Its unusual scarcity and restricted distribution have made it especially appealing to collectors. The composition is presented as a graceful meeting of Russian and French sensibilities, expressed through the image of white petals and snowflakes."

Fun Facts

Coloratura was released in a 70 ml bottle rather than the house's more common 100 ml format.

The fragrance was reportedly produced as a very small numbered edition, with approximately 50 bottles allocated to Moscow.

Reviews Summary

“Coloratura is generally regarded as an airy, luminous white-floral fragrance with a brisk citrus opening, a dewy floral heart, and a clean vetiver and ambergris drydown. Reviews are limited because of its rarity, but it is associated with spring wear and notably strong projection. Community ratings reported for the fragrance include 4.42 out of 5 on Accord and 6.9 out of 10 on Parfumo.”
