Francis Kurkdijan, the nose behind the iconic Baccarat Rouge 540 once more outdid himself with this scent whose unusual sillage as described makes the perfume mysterious. Baccarat Rouge 540 was born from the encounter between Maison Francis Kurkdjian and Baccarat to celebrate the crystal manufacturer’s 250th birthday. The fragrance was inspired by the signature ruby crystal -the French crystal house Baccarat- used in their iconic chandeliers. This romantic-feeling scent opens with the ethereal notes of jasmine and saffron, before softening into a woodier blend of amber accord and cedar. The fragrance is long-wearing and has a strong sillage. The woody scent releases a poetic alchemy, a highly condensed and graphic olfactory signature. Breezy jasmine facets, and radiant saffron boost the ambergris mineral notes and the woody tones of freshly-cut cedar. It is suitable for both men and women. The top notes of jasmine grandiflorum and saffron from Egypt delicately accentuate the powdery, gourmand facets of bitter almonds from Morocco, extracted as an essential oil using an ancestral process.
