Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 is a luxurious unisex perfume known for its complex and refined composition, impressive longevity, and elegant style.

Composition:

• The fragrance opens with airy, bright top notes of jasmine and saffron, which add a floral and slightly spicy brightness.

• The heart features woody tones of cedarwood, enhanced by bitter almond and rose in some versions, creating a warm and creamy middle.

• Its base is a rich, long-lasting blend of ambergris, amber, musk, caramel, woody accords, and sometimes notes like caramel and musk, producing a warm, enveloping, and sensual sillage.

• The scent is described as woody, ambery, and floral with gourmand touches due to ethyl maltol (with caramel-like facets).

• The overall aura of the perfume conveys transparency, density, and a poetic alchemy inspired by crystal-making, balancing air (jasmine, saffron), mineral facets (ambergris, dry woods), and fire (sensual gourmand ethyl maltol).

Longevity:

Style:

• The perfume is elegant, opulent, and sophisticated, suitable for both men and women.

• It transcends gender boundaries and is often associated with luxury, refinement, and exclusivity.

• It fits well for special occasions and evening wear due to its rich, warm, and classy character.
