Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Celestia Forte is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Francis Kurkdjian. Aqua Celestia Forte opens with Lemon, Lime, Petitgrain, and Mint, settles into a heart of Currant Blossom, Jasmine, Lily Of The Valley, and Mimosa, and dries down to a base of Musk. Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Aqua Celestia Forte carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This isn't just a freshie; it’s a powerhouse. Aqua Celestia Forte boasts an invigorating citrus blast with surprising longevity, though its soapy leanings and occasional 'cleaning product' vibe mean it's not universally adored. Pricey, but many rave about its exceptional performance.

About

A vibrant symphony of zesty lime, bright lemon, and cool mint ignites the senses, reminiscent of a crisp mojito. This energetic opening gradually mellows into a clean, green white floral heart, where delicate lily of the valley and jasmine intertwine with the subtle earthiness of petitgrain. A soft, clean musk provides a long-lasting, sophisticated base, retaining the initial freshness.
