Description "Francis Kurkdjian had made two earlier attempts to reformulate this classic (hyper retro!), but the result was not satisfying. This time, working with a new supplier, he has access to super high-quality ingredients and the result is both perfectly faithful to the original, with a little twist that makes it a little fresher, and therefore even more desirable." - founder of MDCI, Claude Marchal

Enlèvement au Sérai was one of Francis Kurkdjian and MDCI's earliest phenomenon, as it captivated those who love retro, dense, and elegant white florals of a bygone era (and equally shocked them when it was discontinued due to ingredient scarcity). This new iteration is their answer to the many requests for its return, as well as a celebration of their ability to build a new version that stands up to the original.
