Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Aura Eau de Parfum
This BR540 dupe is a bit of a chameleon, often triggering nose-blindness in wearers but leaving a lasting, sweet woody trail for others. It's a fantastic, affordable alternative, but expect some debate.

Our Verdict - Sun Moon Stars Midnight Eau de Parfum
If you're after a budget-friendly dupe of Baccarat Rouge 540, this is your jam. Otherwise, swerve it, as the reviews are clear: it's not trying to be unique. Expect a crowd-pleasing, if unoriginal, amber bomb.
