On June 18, Maison Francis Kurkdjian organized its second Commitment Day.   A day designed to bring to life the Maison's commitment mission: to make creation a force for positive change. Creating encounters, horizons, knowledge, and impactful projects for sustainability and inclusivity.   In the morning, 55 high school students were welcomed to discover careers in luxury and perfumery, in collaboration with the Excellent! program for equal opportunities supported by the LVMH Métiers d'Excellence.   In the afternoon, the Engaged Conversations brought together 3 of the Maison’s associative partners: Fonds LINK who came to raise awareness among teams about the fight against HIV AIDS, Association Les Yeux dans la Tête, to discuss the inclusion of people living with neuro-visual disorders, and Longitude 181, which works daily for the preservation of sperm whales and oceans. Authentic conversations about the impact of the actions the Maison supports, and the progress still needed for a more inclusive society that is more respectful of living things.   A special thanks to the employees for their mobilization, and to the friends of the Maison who made this day a success.   #maisonfranciskurkdjian   © JPH/Clandoeil.fr

Reflecting on Ouissem Belgacem’s, with Maison Francis Kurkdjian's support, intervention at Collège Villon in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, his voice and commitment through his association #Yamma continue to challenge homophobia and foster a more inclusive understanding of difference. Through his testimony, Ouissem Belgacem speaks directly to younger generations about inclusion, social pressure, and the harmful effects of silence and stigma. With clarity and sincerity, he encourages students to embrace tolerance, empathy, and respect, while reminding them that difference should never lead to shame, but to dignity and self-worth. #maisonfranciskurkdjian

With Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s support and through his association #Yamma, Ouissem Belgacem, accompanied by Francis Kurkdjian, visited Collège Villon in the 14th arrondissement of Paris for a meaningful exchange with students. This initiative was spearheaded by Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Ouissem Belgacem, former professional footballer, author, and committed voice against homophobia, shared his story and opened a dialogue around inclusion, identity, respect, and the courage to be oneself. Through this encounter, the Maison reaffirmed values deeply rooted in its identity: inclusion, equal opportunity, and respect for every individual. #maisonfranciskurkdjian

"Nature is the first perfumer." At Maison Francis Kurkdjian, perfumery begins with the olfactive treasures nature offers: a playground we are committed to respecting and preserving for future generations. On this #WorldEnvironmentDay, the Maison wants to shine a light on its philanthropic commitments and its partners, who act every day for environmental preservation. Château de Versailles: through the Maison’s patronage, the Perfumers' Garden and The Biodiversity Observatory honor nature's olfactive palette and preserve the unique natural heritage of Versailles. Reforest'Action: the Maison supports 3 agroforestry projects across Morocco and France, to combine environmental preservation and social impact. Since 2023, more than 42,000 trees have been planted to combat climate change effects and preserve floral culture. Longitude 181: Protecting sperm whales, the source of the legendary Grey Amber, and acting for the rights of oceans, the true lungs of our planet. Because preserving nature means preserving the roots of perfumery artistry. #maisonfranciskurkdjian

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
