Fragrance notes
Manufacture date and shelf life
Can I tell when my Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Universalis Eau de Toilette was made from its batch code?
Yes, as an estimate. Maison Francis Kurkdjian uses the Maison Francis Kurkdjian format: for example, code S25213 reads as August 1, 2025. Results come from public reports, not from the brand.
How long does Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Universalis Eau de Toilette last unopened?
Maison Francis Kurkdjian does not publish an unopened shelf life that could be verified (checked October 2026). Go by the date printed on the pack.
How long can I use it after opening?
Look for the open-jar symbol on the pack (for example 12M = 12 months after opening). The period-after-opening calculator gives the exact date.

Declared fragrance allergens 14
Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil, Limonene, Benzyl Salicylate, Linalyl Acetate, Linalool, Geraniol, Pinene, Citronellol, Citral, Beta-Caryophyllene, Terpinolene, Geranyl Acetate, Alpha Terpinene, Terpineol
EU rules require these fragrance components to be named on the label above a small threshold (the list was extended in 2023). They are common in fine fragrance; if your skin reacts easily, spray on clothes rather than skin, or patch-test first.
Other things in the bottle
- UV filters (Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane) protect the juice’s colour and scent from light — they do not protect your skin.
Shelf life and storage
Most perfumes stay good for years unopened, and usually 3–5 years after opening when kept away from heat and light. Keep the bottle in its box, away from the bathroom and windows. If the colour darkens or the opening smells sharp or sour, it has started to turn. Check the batch code to see when it was made.
