1. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir EDP
Francis Kurkdjian is the name on everyone’s lips. The perfumer’s Grand Soir is aptly named. It arouses a big night for the time-tested couple, whether they hired a babysitter or have taken two dozen laps around the sun together. This one isn’t for first impressions or risks. Instead, it’s a lasting love—an amber-forward, sweetly searing scent that stokes the flame.
