Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP
A cult icon that radiates crystalline sweetness and radiant woods with a metallic shimmer. Instantly recognizable, seductive, and divisive, it’s a statement of modern luxury and enigmatic allure.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait
Pearl Fragrances' B R 540 chases Maison Francis Kurkdjian's cult Baccarat Rouge 540, keeping its sweet saffron-amber signature loud from the first spray. The mineral, glass-like ambroxan depth that makes the original distinctive is simplified into a warmer, more ordinary sweet musk.
