Maison Francis Kurkdjian Masculin Pluriel is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2014, created by Francis Kurkdjian. Masculin Pluriel settles into a heart of Woody, Leather, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Masculin Pluriel carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some swear by its classic charm and modern barbershop vibe, while others are left wanting more for the price. If you want silky lavender and that clean, shaven feel, it delivers, but prepare for debates over its performance - 'beast mode' it ain't.

About

It kicks off with a smooth, almost metallic lavender that immediately evokes a luxurious barbershop. This crisp opening melds into a sophisticated heart of earthy vetiver and patchouli, underpinned by a clean, creamy cedar. As it dries down, a subtle, soft leather accord surfaces, deepening the woody character without ever feeling heavy, maintaining an airy, refined elegance throughout.
