About this item
Few modern releases have been imitated as often, or as badly, as Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Unisex Fragrance, which starts with saffron and jasmine, a sharp, faintly medicinal brightness some people love immediately and others need time to understand. Amberwood and ambergris form a heart of luminous, almost synthetic warmth, sweet in a way that suggests burnt sugar without ever naming it. Fir resin and cedar leave it dry and slightly smoky. The strength is unusual and so is the longevity, and it sits on skin with a radiance that carries further than most. It is the kind of scent that gets recognised across a room or a friend walking through the door. Baccarat Rouge 540, a woody amber Eau de Parfum, is built for autumn and winter wear. In the Eau de Parfum concentration, Baccarat Rouge 540 wears exactly as intended.
