Maison Francis Kurkdjian
In the Fall of 2014, Baccarat, the most prestigious and opulent crystalworks in the world, celebrated the 250th anniversary of their founding by releasing an extraordinary crystal decanter containing a luminous, exclusive fragrance created by Francis Kurkdjian. Only 250 of these bottles were produced, for a price of $4000 apiece. Now, for the first time ever, this spectacular fragrance is available to the world as Baccarat Rouge 540, a gorgeously woody floral-amber equal parts transparent, dense, and intense.
MFK describes Rouge 540 not in terms of top, heart and base notes, but rather as the interplay between three unique accords, each lending a distinct and visceral characteristic. The "breeze" accord, jasmine and saffron, sits sheer and delicately spiced on the skin, leading way for the cedar-driven blend of woods that make up the robust and crackling "heat" accord. Finally, a "mineral" accord of ambergris seems simultaneously warm and cool, delivering deceptively straightforward depth to mimic the sophistication of Baccarat Crystal itself. A fragrance that was only meant to belong to 250 of the world's wealthiest collectors is now available, and we could not be more thrilled to offer it.

5/5 Love it. Tons of compliments.
I’m still deciding on it but I don’t hate it!
I just love this fragrance its very feminine and sophisticated.
One of the best scents I've smelled yet. Has a really "red" scent to it (maybe that's just in my head because of "rouge" in the brand name). I love wearing it with a red krewneck or red hoodie and blue jeans as I think the scent fits well with the colour, but I can also see it being worn with professional attire or a suit. I will definitely be getting a large bottle eventually. Really attractive scent.
It’s a wonderful scent but sometimes I can’t smell it at all. It’s kind of frustrating to find a perfume that you love but not smell it on yourself. I’ve spent a lot of money on dupes but that was just a waste. There’s not one dupe of BR540 that smells nearly as good as the original. I might get a full bottle but not at full price.
For me, this falls somewhere between my favorite By the Fireplace, and less favorite 5 sens Life of the Party. Life of the Party feels like something is missing, and this is where Baccarat Rouge 540 got it right! It still falls slightly under By the Fireplace for me, but it’s a good runner up option.
Hate it smells like BBW
Absolutely LOVE the light fragrance! Defeinitely elegant and mature!!
I can't get enough of this scent. It's strong but feminine, has a softness to it while still holding your attention.
Very strong alcohol smell like it really didn’t smell like parfum at all. I sprayed on wrists. After an awhile the alcohol smell lingered i smelled a faint scent of the parfum. I guess this was a bad batch for me. Heard so much about it and I’m truly disappointed.
It is 5-stars worthy, but I am not completely wowed! I was so excited to try it, but I don't think it lives up to the hype. Maybe it is because there are so many dupes out there, that it is not as unique as it once was. With that being said, it is a lovely scent. Not as much projection as I expected. It can easily be worn in the daytime and in the office.
One of my favorites. It's great for work only issue is it doesn't last long enough.
Solid 5 out of 5
Mixed feelings on the scent at first but it's grown on me. I've gotten nothing but compliments!
Enjoyed the scent, but can see where someone might not like it. It’s defying a love or hate scent.
Smells good, but not something I think I would purchase a whole bottle of
I just don't get the hype. For me, the staying power of this fragrance was average at best. It wasn't particularly complex and there was no "wow" factor... you know the kind that makes you keep smelling your arm all day. I will use the travel size up but won't go out of my way to get more.
Surprised at how much I love this scent.
The scent is strong except I don't smell good. I smell like I'm wearing incense. I looked forward to this fragrance but the experience was disappointing.
Absolutely love. Great high end scent with longevity
It’s okay I feel to wear out for an evening
Amazing
This cologne is top tier. This is one of the my favorite cologne all of the time.
This is a good smelling cologne. I’ve heard many people talk about it and now I get to see for myself.
Love it
I really wish this lasted longer. I absolutely love the smell
I love this scent! I get so many compliments from friends and strangers when I wear this fragrance. It can be worn for any occasion in my opinion.
I’ve smelled this perfume on so many occasions but could never figure out what it is, now I know!! Such a nice scent, sweet but also ever so slightly woody.
What can I say. Many scent hobbyists feel fatigued on this fragrance. I still love it. It's great on the skin. Let it air dry, throw on an undershirt and dress shirt and head out to work. It projects pretty well through clothing but I like to layer it scent like Mocshino Toy Boy or Nishane Vain and Niave.
I have smelled Baccarat on other people several times and enjoyed the scent so ordering it for myself was a no-brainer. It does smell great, however I own other fragrances by Maison Francis Kurkdjan and this one does not last as long as the others. It seemed to fade away after a couple of hours.
Smells really freaking good
Smells great. But gave it to my wife it’s more on the feminine side
If this scent were a TV show, it would be Dynasty or Knot’s Landing. If it were a room in your grandmother’s house, it would be powder room under the stairs. If it were a person it would be Patsy Ramsey.
Best smell I've received so far, really different and good
It was a miss for me I tried to pick it up, but I think all the hype is for nothing. it is almost a half smell that comes from it. I will try it again in the summer time.
Fragrance is ok, I can smell a lot of rubbing alcohol in it it smells like. Doesn’t last long at all.
This one slaps hard. Don't even think twice, just do it.
God this scent is so sophisticated and alluring. It is my go to for night time or business meetings. Amazing.
I didn't know this was such a popular scent when I added it and I see why - one of my faves. Spicy and warm on me and on my skin I get whiffs of it all day. I'm going to save up for FSB.
I thought I would really like this but it's smells just like the dentist. I can feel the little bib and taste the tangy fluoride treatment when I smell it... it's not for me
5 stars but it doesn't last very long! I love it though
Love this perfume, its sweet, sexy, and just overall delicious. i find i need a couple sprays to get the scent to last buts its not super long lasting on me. it does stick to clothing well though.
LOVE IT!!! Definitely putting it back in my lineup!
I was disappointed with this fragrance. Having loved it on so many people I was supe Excited to try it. However I felt it was quite weak with poor longevity.
Smells great need to last longer
Last a long long time on me but I also put it on at least three points. To me it smells like the inside of the Bellagio hotel in Las Vegas. There is an oceanic note from what is unmistakably ambergris, and a jasmoindes note that provides a floral note. There is also woody, and spice notes, the ambery musk goes on and on along with ambroxan.
I don’t get the hype. The smell doesn’t last, unless I’m not spraying enough lol. It smells good though. Just not a fave.
I loved the smell ??
I was really excited to try this perfume. However I think my experience was ruined because I already have Zara Red Temptation and they smell the exact same. It’s a wonderful scent but you can easily find a dupe for a lot less!
After hearing about the hype, I added this to my fragrance queue. Honestly, I wasn’t that impressed. It smells good don’t get me wrong but it doesn’t last long on myself on top of it doesn’t project far. I feel like there are so many other more affordable fragrances that smell just like this one.
Barely smelled anything at all
One of only a handful of perfumes so special as to evoke an emotional reaction - one of joy and sheer delight. On my skin this lasts at least 12 hours.
This has become my favorite of all time perfume. The compliments are endless when wearing this perfume.
I hate it.
Simply, love it!!
Amazing and affordable
love this scent. i get so many compliments, classic, rich and ladting. undertones of amber.
Smells amazing… best scent so far
I love the smell of this in the bottle, smells amazing, however when I put it on my skin I smell like an old man. When my daughter wears it she smells amazing. So idk if there’s something with my skin it just doesn’t like but I can’t wear it.
I love it, smells a lot like “Cloud”
At first spray there’s a minty coolness I was unsure about but, once it dries down it starts to fade a bit and the scent turns into this sweet (not sickly sweet), woody, vanilla-ish, jasmine-y fragrance that’s beautiful. The best way I can describe it is, imagine u walk outside on a cold winter day and something in the crisp cold air smells of a sugary vanilla, woody jasmine. U smell all of those notes blended beautifully but along with that, u also smell the cool crisp air. It’s a very nice fragrance. But personally it’s not something I would buy a whole bottle of.
Couldn’t smell anything
I didn’t like the smell
This is a really nice fragrance. It smells very autumn/winter, like a soft warm spice. Lasts a while directly on skin but doesn't linger long.
This is a nice scent, but doesn't last long. The price for a full bottle is ridiculous. which is why I dropped it down to 4 stars and because of longevity
Can’t really rate it. Bottle emptied out during shipping. Someone didn’t close the bottle right. Bummer. Now I have to wait to see if scentbox will replace it
It smells nice in the air so I can see this being nice on others, but it does not work well with my body chemistry at all. It's like burning plastic.
For the price point I was really disappointed. It make me smell like an old lady
Love love love it.
It smells beautiful. I gave it 3 stars because I feel it was overhyped in how amazing it smelled, and I wish it was stronger so it could last longer.
Doesnot mix well with my body chemistry
It’s a pretty scent that is recognisable. Clean and slightly sweet. After having kids , most perfumes I liked (Chanel tendre and similar) stopped smelling nice for me. So I was happy to find something I actually Like!
Incredible on its own but layers well with almost anything . I love this layered with oud satin mood or portrait of a lady.
Upon initial spray I find this perfume to be a Very clean scent. I don’t get any sweetness. To me it’s not very complex. For me, I’d use it as a base to layer scents that are more fruity or sweet. This scent seems very uneventful to me. I don’t think I’d buy a full size bottle, I would, however, use the sample and do understand why people enjoy this fragrance.
I love this scent! It is my favorite!!
Warm. Slightly spicy. Not too overpowering and a great scent for fall. This has been my favorite so far.
My favorite scent so far!
Smells nice. still searching for the perfect defiance
I guess I’m late to the party, do this scent was not unique
Nice scent not very strong at all to be such an expensive perfume.
Based on the notes, I thought I would like it. It’s veryyyy sweet and smells juvenile. It’s not for me so I immediately returned.
Very sweet, reminds me of cotton candy. Not at all what I was expecting. It grew on me. I gave it 4 stars because it doesn't last very long. I do like it though.
This is a VERY pleasant fragrance, just not my favorite profile. I like more vanilla. This is, however, sophisticated and refreshing.
There is a reason this is one of the best out there. 100% complete package deal. Performance and smell is top notch.
it does have a unique smell to it that can be easily identified as the famous 540 but the scent it self isn't that mind blowing, kinda over rated but worth a sample
I really wanted to try the og as I normally use Zara Red temptation which honestly i think last longer and is stronger its still good though
One of my favorites!
Actually didn’t like this at first. It sat on my shelf for a few months and decided one day to wear it again. Every time I wear it, I get so many compliments. Don’t know if I just didn’t give it a chance or it needs to sit for a little for the scent to develop better.
This is my favourite so far, I find it to be a really pleasant, warm scent that I believe the term "mature" suits quite well. Probably more feminine, but I still enjoy it anyway.
Smells more like perfume to me
Smells amazing. A real head turner.
Love the smell, just didn’t last very long
I have had more compliments while wearing the fragrance than any other! The nice thing is when they did they did not smell me or get to close they walked in my vicinity and said something smells so good over here whoever is wearing that fragrance it is beautiful. If it happened once while sitting in the same spot I would not have thought it was my fragrance but not matter were I was that was the same story. It also lasted all day!!!
People will notice. Not really powerfull, bue pleasant.
One of my favorites! When I first put this on I wasn’t sure if I would like it or not. The more I wore it, the more I fell in love with it. It’s a very sexy and long lasting scent.
BR 540 is definitely a different scent from any other I have owned or tested. I like it, but I prefer it layered with my vanilla woods scent. For fall, it would be great on it's own. It's definitely genderless.
Amazing scent with a variety of notes.
One of my very favorite fragrances. Carries long and last long.
Pleasantly surprised at how much I liked this! I didn’t think it would live up to its hype but it does. My husband commented on how while I smelled in our date night.
I had heard this perfume smells like a hospital, and at first, that's exactly what I smelled too. But over time, I got used to it and now I really enjoy wearing it every day. One spray is enough, and it lasts all day. It’s the perfect scent for the office—clean and professional. I can’t see myself wearing it anywhere else, though
I love this fragrance! Smells like a rich women with old money who wears long white gloves and smokes Virginia slims from a cigarette extender ???? My only complaint it doesn’t last long. The cool down period smells the best but it doesn’t last as long as it should for the price you’re paying. Still one of my favs nevertheless.
I like this one but I prefer the extrait because it’s a bit more feminine and subtle.
I expected more from this scent.
It’s a no for me it smalls cheap like Walmart of perfumes
This is overhyped. Smell is strong and lasts DAYS, but when it smells this awful, that's not a good thing. Smells like vomit breath the morning after drinking too much.
Welp! looks I'm one of those ppl that are super sensitive to ambroxan bc this blinds my nose instantly. I can't honestly even say what this smells like bc I have yet to smell it despite using it 4 times already. Apparently a lot of ppl have this experience so be warned! It's insane and so disappointing. I'm giving it 2 stars bc my husband does think it's a really nice light smell and described it like a cloud which reminds me of Ariana's cloud being compared to this. Wish I knew! ??
This is my go to scent, however I mix it with bath and body works dahlia!! Always get compliments saying it's not an overpowered scent.
I love it but I do love a soft yet masculine scent. The initial spray does smell off putting but the dry down is soft and more subtle.
Nice but definitely not for me
This was an immediate return. I do not know why people rave about this fragrance. It smells cheap and the worst notes lingered for hours and hours.
Im sure its great, but Ill never know bc USPS never delivered it to my house.
Love this- it’s hypnotizing!
I loved this smell and have gotten compliments. Was bummed that it was leaking when it arrived
It’s okay, not a fragrance that I’d wear everyday.
I always here about this perfume so I was surprised how much I disliked it.
Just a tad bit too masculine to me. The dry down is lovely though.
I really wanted to like this colunge, it's not bad by any means. There's just no real smell to it. It's a whisper of a smell. It doesn't really change notes.
LOVE THE SCENT GET LOGS OF COMPLIMENTS
I wanted to like this since it’s so hyped up and people even say it’s Rhianna signature perfume. But in my opinion it smells like freshly cut grass. It’s just not for me. Will keep using though as I’m not wasteful so it might grow on me overtime. As for longevity, I feel like it personally lasted all day for me (and I live in Miami where it’s hot and I’m sweaty just stepping outside).
My 2nd favorite scent I own! Loooove this and I get tons of compliments when I wear it.
I know this is all over the place. But it truly does smell amazing and its my number one.
LOVE IT
I did not like this one, it smelled more like a man's fragrance and had a "bleachy" smell. Not for me!
The smell is fantastic. I have nothing but good things to say about the way it smells. But this fragrance does not project at all. For a purfume that cost 400 dollars a bottle I would expect the the projection to be fantastic. And it was a total let down.
Was not a fan of this scent. Not too sure what the hype was about. It did last the entire day and then some. However, I prefer Ariana Grande’s God is a Woman. It has a cleaner scent.
When I first sprayed it, I did not like it, but once it was on for a little bit, I fell in love!! So I would say if you don’t like it at first, give it a chance to mellow out a little before deciding for sure.
Love this scent seems to last a while on my skin as well
I like it, a lot. I'm just not sure if I love it on me, yet. I'm going to keep trying. I'm almost 50, but I still feel like this scent might be a little too mature for me. Not really old-ladyish, but not youthful either.
Beautiful scent, but not a lot of staying power for me
I have been in love with this since I tried it last year. I'd give it 5 stars but the longevity is terrible. The scent itself is slightly masculine but in a very sexy way. I get tons of compliments when I wear it. I get migraines so I've always stuck with gourmand or fresh/citrus fragrances. This is neither. It's a very grownup sexy scent. Definitely a unisex fragrance. It's pricey so getting it through scentbox is perfect if you're not wanting to spend that much for a full size bottle. Hands down one of my favorites. Like I said the only downside is the longevity.
I’m still not 100% sure how I feel about this scent. When I sprayed it the first time I was not in love with the scent and could not understand the hype. As the day wore on, and the fragrance settled down, I actually found it quite pleasant. It is a very sweet smell. Hard to describe really. I’m not sure I would spend the money on a full-size bottle, however, I have found that I actually do enjoy this fragrance.
Definitely one of love scrumptious since I’ve ever smelled if anybody give less than five stars, they need to do a nose check lol
LOVE THE SMELL!
So, I'll start off by saying that I've only ever smelled dupes of this perfume, but I have smelled just about every dupe their is, with varying levels of enjoyment of the fragrance. My biggest complaint with every dupe is that they all have this sort of weird synthetic element to them (think burning plastic). I'm glad to say that the original doesn't. It's very well blended and is smooth. Everyone has always said the dupes are well done and smell exactly like the original. But truly, they do not. This one is sweet and woody and sultry. I don't like the price tag, but this is the best version of the woody amber scent profile. I recommend trying it, as its fairly pleasing to most people. Doesn't last as long as I though it would though surprisingly.
Hands down. This is the best most enchanting fragrance I have ever encountered. It is a perfect blend of jasmine, saffron and woody scents. 10 out of 10 amazing
Strong fragrance, not good on my skin but I can see the potential on someone else’s. My rating is purely my experience. I would not pay the asking price for this cologne.
Everyone always asks what I’m wearing and I’m glad I can have this always on hand through this service. A whole bottle would be so much money up front. I don’t know if it’s a ‘special occasion’ perfume, but I honestly wear it as an everyday perfume. It’s perfect for me.
Love Love Love This is my second favorite ever, it’s only beat by 540 Extrait
This is my go to fragrance.
I was really hopeful for this perfume since it seems to be so popular but it's much too intense and spicy for me. I tried to let it dry down but it still chokes me out.
I find this fragrance warm and comforting, not an overpowering scent at all. A unisex scent that can be worn by men or women.
Beautiful Fragrance! Sweet, Fun, Daytime. Not worth the hype in my opinion but still very nice.
Sweet ??. So frickin sweet. This smells like Fruity Pebbles and cotton candy. Like many reviewers I was super excited to try this after all the hype. Unfortunately, I am sadly disappointed. The scent is strong, and it lasts a long time, but the sweetness is cloying to me. For someone who wants to smell like candy however, it would probably be a win.
I don't get the hype.. I dont even know how I feel about the scent tbh lol
Immediately fell in love! It lasted my whole 10 hour shift in a hot factory!
Absolutely love it. Such a great smelling fragrance. Immediate compliments after putting it on.
Don’t really understand the hype on this. I know a lot of my friends love it but when I tried it on myself, it reminded me of an old-lady scent and made me nauseous. Tried to scrub it off but the scent was still in my nose for a while. Gave it to a friend, otherwise would’ve sent it back for exchange.
Great scent, very warm and floral. Definitely sprays more intense and almost unpleasant, then mellows out to a nice, pleasing aroma.
Great scent. Just couldn't see myself spending that much money on it.
a dissapointment, it lasts forever & projects well but the scent is just off. It also smells sort of like a hospital. I would give it 2 stars for the scent itself, but the performance quality earned it an extra star. I am exchanging it though as the scent was nothing like i expected
This one was an immediate NO for me! I can’t understand the hype and am beyond disappointed. It was awful to me. I can’t even describe why I hated it so much but it was so bad, I tried scrubbing it off and it wouldn’t come off. So, 5 stars for longevity! But actually awful to me. It smelled like spicy incense and chemicals gone rancid.
This scent is a personal favourite! It's sweet, but not in a cheap or simple way. It's complex and works for young and old, in the office or a night out. I've had more compliments on this than any other fragrance. However, for the price, I expected much more longevity. I was thinking it would be a similar class to Le Labo, but it was not near that potent! Some would prefer that!
I was really hoping I was going to love this one especially because of all the hype it gets but I was honestly disappointed in it. I love the smell but had to actually drench myself in it to smell it and even after doing that after an hour I couldn't even smell it anymore even on my clothes the smell was completely gone. For a perfume that is so expensive it should actually last much longer.
I like the scent. Just doesn't last long enough. I've had compliments on it but I don't believe it's my scent.
I was very excited and curious to find out why this perfume was so well talk about. Unfortunately the smell did not sit well on my skin. On me it smells like Clorox with a hint of jasmine and the slightest tiniest bit of sweet. It mostly smells like cleaning agents on me. On my friends and my daughter it smells fruity floral and cotton candy. Smells good on others but it’s not for me. It’s good but not worth the price it is.
I love it!! My signature scent
Amazing sent and lasts a long time. This is a must try.
One of my favorite
Best scent I have ever smelled!!!
I love it. It’s sensual, sexy, and sophisticated. Definitely my top fragrance of the moment
Enchanting- my husband loved it!
Love this! Very sexy and sweet. One that I’ll wear on date nights for sure.
The best , so many compliments!
I've had a hard time finding a perfume that I like and can wear until now. BR540 is woody, spicy and has fast become my favorite and I will continue to buy.
I used my rewards to get the sample amount (not included on my plan) and I cannot convey to anyone just how good this is. The scent is sexy, sweet but not childish, floral but not heavy. In the 2 years I’ve been subscribed to scentbox, this is hands down my favorite scent.
The first 2 times I wore it I was like, wow, I am SO glad I hate it because I cannot justify that kind of money for a full bottle. Who likes to smell like wet inner tube and mint gum!? The third time…they got me. It is absolutely heavenly and now I’m trying to put it on layaway like my mama used to do Christmas presents at K-Mart. It truly is exquisite.
Smells amazing, longevity is poor.
Absolument parfait!!
Not the best. Smells like the Ariana cloud perfume, but stronger.
Love this scent!!!!Smells amazing In affordable price and long lasting
I absolutely am in love with this scent. I want it EVERYWHERE!
?????? my fave
Lovely, long lasting
Love it will buy it again smells great last long
Extremely overrated, this smells like almost any other ambergris or amber scent I’ve used, but with a slight spice added. Definitely not worth the hype or the money, especially when the same fragrance can be achieved with a straight amber oil and a spicy/oriental lotion base. Rather disappointing, very glad I tried it before I wasted the money on a full size product.
So I of course had to see what all the hype was about with this perfume... Honestly, it smells great. It's got some spice to it and it more of a night time perfume. It's a beautiful scent, very rich and mature smelling. The only down side is that it doesn't last very long.
Nice. I love it.
Loved this and it's well-worth the hype. Not as strong as I expected, meaning it's definitely wearable.
I love this scent! So far it's my favorite out of the scents I've tried, I'm going to try the rose one next month now... get this, you won't be disappointed
Elegant and classy with a holiday feel. This will be my go-to scent for the winter holiday parties, etc.
Trash and don’t last long at all
Smells absolutely delicious. Very unique scent, classy?????? Highly recommend. A bit to expensive to purchase the big bottle?? But will definitely purchase smaller size.
Smells amazing but I feel like it doesn’t last very long. Found myself reapplying more than i normally do
My new favorite, very classy scent!!!
While this scent could be gender neutral, it leans feminine. I wound up giving this to my fiancé and I love it on her. It typically lasts all day and she has a little cloud of warm sexy fragrance around her. Lots of compliments and a great perfume.
A very good scent! Perfect for date night or going out!
The smell from the bottle was incredible. I couldn’t wait to wear it. The first spray was both fruity and spicy in a way that I’d never smelled before. Then it hit my skin. I smelled like a tree-shaped car air freshener. I smelled like the inside of a 1978 Camaro. I smelled like my childhood babysitter’s petty criming boyfriend who was NOT allowed to visit. Dry down has morphed into someone’s nice grandpa who has an occasional cigar. I smell like a spa with a hairy chest. Not for me.
Love it!! I get so many compliments!
It smells nice. There is something I can't pick up, but it's different.
Definitely lives up to the hype. It’s a well-rounded fragrance, and sits a little more on the subtle side. Absolutely love it!
Not as good as the real bottle but I’m running out so I’m mix it. I also mix it with bond.9 tribeca
It’s nice, definitely overhyped but it is nice. Crowd pleasing. Nice layering option.
It's so good. Warm and unique (well it was for its time). Sexy and uplifting. Has an intriguing note which was very enticing to me and I couldn't put my finger on, but was later ruined when someone in another review mentioned that it can smell like a hint of bandaid. So now I both love this fragrance some days and can't stop smelling a hint of bandaid on other days. Some people say its the saffron that has this quality. Try it for yourself. It either completely works for you or doesn't. A slightly polarizing scent. Very heavy so stick to one or two sprays.
Too intense
I love it lasts long time get compliments on it.
I don’t understand the hype.
My daughter loves, I got it for her. It didn't really smell that amazing to me but my oldest daughter and my husband lives the way it smells. Apparently it has something to do with the olfactory sense and I can't smell it at the same capacity that others can. I don't dislike it I just wouldn't buy it for myself.
Unisex
It smells so good but it doesn’t last!
It is different and refreshing. Not my number one but a go to for a change. Light and lasts long.
I agree with many reviews that there is a burnt sugar, woodsy scent to this. I am newer to fragrance and I don't think this would be my scent; however, it does work and is unique in its own way. I also could not smell this a short time after applying which I found odd as many had stated its potency.
So I can barely smell anything but this perfume I was able to smell and omg it lasted so long. I wore it for a whole evening and woke up the next morning being able to still smell it. I love it I wish I could buy the whole bottle
Nice fragrance but not long lasting. Not worth the price (IMO) nor the hype. It took me a few days to decide if I like it or not =(
I love the scent. I do think mine smelled like pure alcohol occasionally, or when I sprayed on my wrists it smelled like alcohol.
It's ok. Due to all the hype I expected more from this fragrance.
I love this fragrance. Not because it’s trendy. Or because someone told me I smell “rich” LOL. Because it suits me. I can’t smell it on myself but I’ve had children hug me and say “you smell so good” …and my friend called and said I wore your sweater today, and it smells like you! I miss you! That’s what a fragrance should do.
It does smell amazing but not what all the hype was about cloud smalls just like it and it doesnt last long like I expected so I later it with cloud overall dont think I will be buying a bigger bottle I'm going to try some of his other fragrances
I love the different notes in Baccarat Rouge 540. This is not a strong fragrance at all. It is a very light, warm scent. A hint of tea. A gentle touch of Jasmine and a smooth finish with the Saffron. My only issue was that mine smelled like alcohol, until it started to dry down. I don’t know if this is normal for the fragrance or for decanted versions.
I. AM. IN. LOVEEEEEE!
Not what I expected
Love this.
The best smelling perfume. I bought this to see what all the hype was about and then wished I hadn't because now I'm going to have to buy a full bottle. It's stunning
Not my favorite at first. I did have to warm up to it.
It is a beautifully blended scent! Soft and sexy!
It smelled amazing and smelled even better after I got pregnant and my sense of smell changed. All time fave! Nothing compares, simply love it!
Intoxicating
Very masculine and smells like musky wood
Obsessed, love love love everything about this fragrance but I feel like it doesn’t last long or projects as strongly as I kept hearing about!
I now completely understand why this has been all the rage. This smell is out of this world & the off brands do smell similar but this smell is just one of a kind & lasts for days on end! I picked up my jacket today & can still smell it from over a week ago and..I have COVID right now so my smell is off!! I will definitely be purchasing this in the future this is a gotta have perfume that will last you forever! Yes, the price tag made me flinch but honestly I've never had a perfume that lasts this long that I could wear all the time!! Especially, for date nights. My husband never says much about my perfume & he actually told me I smelled great the night I wore this & wasn't even that close to him at that moment!! ??
Fabulous! My new signature scent. It smells so good. Not over powering but there! Sensual, casual, sophisticated. The ultimate champion of perfumes.
Been dying to smell this for some time now. Been hearing about it everywhere….. probably not what I expected but I don’t know what I expected. …. I DO really like it though and I’ve been getting compliment after compliment it seems. I ended up receiving an extra atomizer of it …(my subconscious must have ordered it because I don’t remember doing it ) but sure glad I did!!!!!!
Literally smells like fruit punch to me
Love this scent, can’t get enough of it. Not overpowering, can easily wear to work. Two sprays last all day for me, and can smell it on clothes for days. Got so many compliments, and a few dates. Buying a full bottle immediately.
Disappointing
Wasn't expecting to like it this much. Great stuff
It smells good, but had high expectations I probably wouldn't buy a big bottle.
This is one of the most unique scents I have ever smelled! Nothing out there smells even close to this gem. The candy-sweet, semi woody, and ambery opening turns into a minty fresh still a candy-sweet scent with subtle hints of sweet and fresh spices coming through. It is so unique yet so familiar, like when you meet someone new and you get the feeling you actually known them your whole life. I was wondering for a long time what all the hype surrounding this cologne was about; Well, now I know! The projection during the day is not overly strong, more close to the skin. However it actually lasts for days! Great all-year-round and everyday scent.
Lovely smell. Definitely a year round scent for me.
I fell into the hype due to TikTok creators, and I had to try it. In short, the perfume is not for me, it isn’t bad per se on me but it just doesn’t flow well with my body chemistry. On my partner though, it smells great; thankfully someone will get to enjoy it!
This isn’t the correct scent, literally smells like alcohol
Not what it’s built up to be. Goes on faint and last no time at all. Would not suggest this to anyone, esp a parfum enthusiast.
I really don't like the smell. I had high hopes for this, but it's a no for me.
Love it!
There is something in this fragrance along with another popular designer fragrance that flares up my asthma.
This is such an amazing fragrance it definitely lives up to the hype the only thing i can complain about is the longevity, it doesn't last long at all and i really wish it did cuz I could smell this all day and be good, bur either way amazing scent.
Smells amazing and long lasting
I bought a bottle immediately… loveee this scent! It smells sweet like candy/flowers and has a saffron undertone that gives it this elegant smell!!! It smells fancy
Very fruity and floral with a slight musk. Has a nice smell and it’s unisex but definitely leans more feminine to me.
One of faves. Luxurious not overpowering. Cult classic
It was everything I hoped for. Sophisticated, intoxicating & memorable. Ugh I wish this stuff wasn’t so expensive irl I could bathe in it
I love it!
Smells like cheap perfume
I absolutely love this scent. It's like walking in to a candy store full of wonder! To me it's like walking in The Willy Wonka Factory minus the chocolate smell. Freaking AWESOME! 5 out of 5
Love love love it , my best friend loved it too spicy and fruity mix doesn’t last long on both of us about 3 hours then you have to be really close to smell it . Lasts longer on ur clothes . I repurchased another one .
I can see why this is so popular. This is an amazing scent if you like a good, not too sweet gourmand
Smells amazing but doesn’t last long at all. Has a musk and fruity scent. Good for evening or winter weather.
Such a great fragrance! It's strong yet pretty and light at the same time. I can smell it on myself all day long.
O.m.g!! This smells sooooo amazing. My new favorite fragrance. I love it.
THE BEST
I changed my subscription to try this. I had to see what all the hype was. It's not bad, it's just not what I thought it was going to be. I may like it better if I could smell it a little longer. It doesn't last very long for me.
Scent disappears quite quickly, but is amazing while it lasts
Love it!!
Gorgeous scent!
Wow I am in love with this scent! From the first delicious sweet notes, heady but still light and transparent in a way that is impossible to understand until you have experienced it. The warm amber and comforting woody notes finish it off perfectly. I reapply regularly for a fresh burst, mainly because I’m obsessed, not because it needs it. I loved it so much I bought the full size bottle plus the extrait and body lotion, worth every penny!
I could not smell this and it did not live up to the hype. I get more compliments on Juicy Gold then I received with this fragrance. Nothing too bad nice light scent however it was just very faint had to spray multiple sprays and still my friends said they smelled nothing. Gave 3 stars because again it didn't stink but I don't feels as though it was anything special.
I get a lot of compliments when I wear it and it’s good but my only complaint is that I don’t feel it lasts very long
It's okay, my husband and 3 kids say an enthusiastic 10/10 though! It reminds me of my time in Vegas but not in a cheap way. The glitz, the glamour, staying in the Bellagio. When I go back you best BELIEVE I'm wearing this lol. I only used two pumps and my husband could smell it from across the room. I could smell it on my skin for over 24 hours until I put on heavily scented lotion and even then, I could still slightly smell it.
Love it
Had to smell what the hype was all about, i got many compliments on the scent but I'm not sure if its my favorite for a daily perfume.
Absolutely love this scent and it last long, I still smell it on my jacket, will definitely be. Using a big bottle of this!!!!
This one is between 4 and 5 stars for me. It wasn't a blind buy; I enjoyed smelling it, and also the extrait at Bloomingdale's. I hope Scent Box gets the extrait. Anyway, I liked this one too, well enough to get the decant, but I like so many frags I don't need to invest in a full bottle. This one is hyped up due to to the Baccarat crystal bottle story, but to me, it's an equivalent value to other luxury perfumes of this price. Don't worry about the hype and just use your nose. If you like it, it's worth it that's it. Impressions: On me, to my nose, it leans feminine. I know guys are interested but I'd not call this a masculine scent. Also, my first and most lasting impression is that it's a fruity scent. In frags that have citrus notes, Bergamot, orange, orange flower, Mandarin, etc., those notes are always front and center for me, no matter how many other notes are listed. I get an orange, orange blossom mix with a note that stays cool and fresh all along. Like a cool, moist, fresh note. Even hours later I still get that, with a floral powdery dry down to round it out. I feel like you could wear this year round daily, may be a little heavy in hot weather, we shall see. It's ok for office, but on me, it's a little strong with overspray potential. I used 3 small sprays on neck and wrists 14 hours ago and it's still there. Office friendly if you're not a heavy sprayer. I'd like to smell this on a man and see what impression it leaves. This is another nice one. Scent Box, can we have the extrait please!
I found it to be overwhelming and a bit nauseating. It smelled like I had my face to the air vent at Hollister stores. I liked that sent in the store when it was subtle. This fragrance is far from subtle. This one is not for me. I'm glad I changed my subscription to try it though. Exchanging to try something else.
This scent is amazing it last all day and every person smells it on me it can be layered and that does change it a little but layered with vanilla body spray makes it even more irresistible
doesn’t live up to the hype at all, just meh for me. I much prefer their other fragrances
I bought this for my wife. It’s a sexy scent that is soft on her. I like it.
The best
One of my favorites. Love smelling it
I wanted to see if this scent was going to live up to the hype that it was getting. Unfortunately for me it did not give what it gave to others. I was disappointed. It (1) did not last long (2) It was a bit manly for me. My daughter said maybe I need to pair it with something else. But I am by no way a chemist and I do not have the patience to be mixing and matching perfumes like I am in some science lab. LOL
I love it! I have tried the oil version of this for a lot cheaper price and it smells the same. The difference between the knock offs and the real one is the dry down. The original dry down is unmatched.
Tried before and didn't like it. I tried it a week ago and now love it.
I love it. But the powdery notes I'm not a fan of.
Smells nice but much sweeter than expected, not heavy though. I feel it gives toffee apple but none of the bites suggest it. ??
Absolutely amazing! I never get complimented on scents I wear and everyone said how good it smells!
I wanted to see if this lived up to all the hype since I’d seen it all over social media and also the dupes posted for it. Well, it did NOT disappoint. I don’t usually like unisex scents as I don’t want something that smells manly. I like some femininity to fragrances. It has that, but I could also see a man enjoying it as well. I definitely feel like the amber is the star of the show, and the woody, almost spicy and floral notes balance it out. Its sexy. I wore it to work and got compliments all day. Even after being there for 8 hours my coworker said she could still smell it. I asked if it was overpowering when I first got there - she said no and it just smelled delicious.
It smells great but doesn’t stay on all day. For the price, you’d expect it to.
This fragrance had some nice notes and good longevity.
Have gotten compliments everytime I wear it
This scent smells good,but to me is very overrated for the price. It's not very strong and has a pretty intimate sillage. I have other scents that last way longer than this at half the price. It is definitely a pleasant smell though, just a bit of a disappointment with all the hype around it.
Everything that I expecting! Definitely purchasing the full size.
Smells nice but too faint for my liking. I prefer something that will give a stronger first impression.
I guess this is either a love it or hate it fragrance. For me, its a love! It smells... interesting. Fresh and woodsy, and sweet at the same time. It smells familiar to me, but also unlike anything I've smelled before. It got me some compliments at work, and I could smell it on myself all throughout my work day.
I adore this scent. It's fresh, uplifting, isn't powdery, and has longevity. It's going to be repeat order.
so sophisticated smelling
my favorite so far
Did not smell good on me unfortunately.. I was really hoping to like it but it smells like chemicals mixed with sweet woodsy scent, mixed with rubbing alcohol, mixed with sharpie marker at a horse stable or monkey pen… There’s a faint sweet smell after a shower but I don’t like the initial smell. I can’t walk around with that terrible smell.
Amazing: to say the least! This scent is incredible and one I’ll have to purchase as soon as possible. I have one dupe for this but after receiving the “real deal”, I’m only interested in investing in the original fragrance.
Love the scent. Did not last all day!
I love this scent on me. I got so many compliments when I wore it.
Amazing! However wore off quickly.
OMG!!! definitely a Head Turner! It does last a long time. When my significant other comes home from, I can still smell it on him!
It smells good at first. It just does not last on the skin.
Smells fine- wanted to see what the hype was having never smelled it and the instant I did I recalled five times I last smelled the scent. A bit too sweet for me- too common and not for me
Absolutely love it
Smells great on my wife. Projects well and lasts all day. On fabric (like sweaters) it lasts multiple days.
I wanted to try it without the big investment. Anyway, this was nothing that I thought it would be. This reminded me of someone at work who wears this scent. I do not love or hate it. It is just not a scent for me.
Love It!
Love this smell. Very sexy soft
Overhyped
worst smell EVER! SMELLS LIKE WATERED-DOWN TOOTHPASTE & POO-PURI. 0/10.
Love love love. Fresh but also sexy.
I get the hype around this perfume. I can't quite put my finger on what it reminds me of, but it has a comforting and familiar scent. It doesn't fit the typical old or young lady fragrances - it's a good happy medium that would be appropriate for any occasion or season.
Smells nice but not what I expected.
It has a weird smell that I can’t put my finger on. Considering how expensive this perfume is, I was pretty disappointed.
The best way I could describe this is if original cool water for men was also soft and semi sweet. I can see why men wear this too. My husband gave me the omg reaction, my 10 yr old son said you smell like peaches! My 7 yr old daughter asked me if I took a shower. I gave it a 4 because I find it really unique and many fragrances smell the same to me. I took a shower the next day and I can still smell it on my skin. I smelled it the whole day I was wearing it. The soft sweet part kind of melts away quickly and the cool watery part is left behind.
It smells good, but definitely not one of my favorites. It really is the epitome of a unisex fragrance in my opinion because it smells a little too feminine to be for men, and a little too manly to be for women. With that being said, my wife didn't like it for her, so I kept it for me. I get some sort of a candy smell coming from it, which I guess is what gives it that feminine smell.
Now I understand the hype for this fragrance. It smells amazing. My daughter and I love it!
I picked this fragance to see what all the rave was about… It did not meet my expectations. It was not long-lasting, and it smelled like some of the standard perfumes available at chain beauty stores.
Smells great! Get a lot of compliments and smells lasts
Definitely overhyped! I am not sure if it’s just me but it lasts about 10 minutes.
Love this. I get compliments even though I may not be smelling myself. I have been asked at least once if it was Ariana cloud (which I haven’t tried but I’m aware price tags is cheaper). Regardless I still love it. I’ve been told it’s screams sultry and sexy.
??????
I do love this scent but I do think it is so over hyped and it's not as unique as it used to be because you can go to any store, restaurant, mall and you'll smell at least two women wearing it. The scent does have longevity and you do get a strong wiff when someone wearing it walks by you. I honestly wouldn't buy a bottle just because it's so popular and just not one of my favorite perfumes anymore.
smell did not got me to the expectations, I mean I though it would be smelling a lot smoother, richer, better
It was alright but a little more feminine than masculine
Amazing fragrance and long lasting.
Too manly for a woman in my opinion. Very masculine. I gave it away because sending things back just seem like a hassle in my mind.
Beautiful scent! It smells comforting and familiar in a way that I can’t pinpoint. I wore it to work today and got a compliment. The scent lasts, it’s there but not light and not too strong. It’s the best smelling fragrance I have out of twenty bottles. I may save up for a bottle!
Love it last long smells great and is a must have for any occasion
Not a fan. Used once then gave it away. In my opinion a super hyped scent.
love it!
okay so i'll start off by saying i've smelled a few dupes of BR540 before i smelled the real deal, so i was already familiarized with this fragrance DNA and i really liked my dupes. i was slightly nervous to smell it because it's such a hyped perfume and i really wanted it to be much better than all my other dupes but... it's okay? the dental office/toothpaste smell to me is stronger in the original than in the dupes i have. i will say the notes are sharper in the original, you can almost smell every note more distinctly if you focus rather than it all being blended, which may be the reason why the toothpaste smell is stronger in this one. nevertheless, i like it. but i was bummed the dupes are so similar to the original, IMO not worth the heavy price tag when you can snatch the same smell for a fraction of the price.
Was looking forward to getting this cologne in. Was very disappointed found it had no smell. Tried several times with no luck.
It gives luxurious formal event. Very rich
Smells like rubbing alcohol mixed with perfume.
Unique and unforgettable!
From the moment I sprayed Baccarat Rouge 540, I was entranced by its allure. The amber and jasmine notes harmonize seamlessly with my body chemistry, creating a captivating scent. Wearing it daily has become a habit, despite initially planning to reserve it for special occasions. The compliments flow consistently, affirming its irresistible charm. This fragrance has effortlessly transitioned from a reserved luxury to an essential part of my everyday routine, adding a touch of sophistication to every moment
I really don't get the hype. It's an ok fragrance in my opinion. There's something in the opening that I'm not a fan of, just can't quite put my finger on it. And it only lasts about 4 hours on me. Not full bottle worthy for me
Smells good. Very pretty scent.
Stopped having a smell after 4 uses
Surprisingly intrigued by the multilayered notes. This is one to sit on as it has much to say from the first to the last note. I would say it really depends on body chemistry.
What can I say about this fragrance that hasn’t already been said? This has quickly become a cult favorite across all age groups. I of course love this MFK fragrance a ton! Strong staying power and just the right amount of reach. Anyone who knows fragrance can spot this one right away, just like MADEMOISELLE!
Smells like burnt sugar or toasted marshmallows to me, which I personally love. I can’t get enough of this scent. It’s not overpowering either. I think its projection is on the weaker side.
This is my new go to. If the song Let's Get It On was a smell, it would be this scent. Love it. It starts of musky but fresh, then there are notes of soft floral. Not one I would have chosen for myself usually but I've seen so much about it i had to try it. It is pure magic and i am in love. Definitely recommend.
In love!!!
I've now tried 100s of fragrances - this is by far the most unresistible. Many perfumes smell great; this one always gives me an OMG moment - actually, several throughout the day. I agree with the other reviewer - when my sample runs out from here and from the discovery kit, I'm going to have to splurge. If I could only have one perfume for the rest of my life, it would be Baccarat Rouge 540. If I could have two - the runner-up is definitely Gentle Fluidity in Gold. I didn't expect my two favorites to be from the same house. I didn't choose a season or occasion because it really fits all of them.
Great scent, soft, unique, and long lasting.
Smells like a grown up version to Ariana cloud to me! Kinda of a lighter scent than I was expecting, not much projecting and longevity on my skin. If I had the money I’d buy the full size, until then I’ll stick to the subscription.
Pretty scent but can’t smell it on myself, not on my skin or clothes. I now put a little on my Yorkie after his bath and I enjoy the smell on him. Not sure why I can’t smell it on myself, wish I could because I’d buy the biggest bottle ever!
I loved it. I thought it would be super strong but it wasn’t. It smells light and citrusy to me. I compared it to cloud by Ariana and I can’t say I smell the similarities but I wish I did because I really love this fragrance and I don’t wish to dish out $325 for it. Please let me know if there is another dupe!
Sweet but strong and mature. Really good! I was excited to try this from all the hype.
Just a bit too sweet for my taste, but very rich and elegant.
??
This absolutely lives up to the hype. Of all of the colognes I've sampled, this is the one that I would gladly pay for a full bottle.
Very heavy and suffocating. I felt like I was being choked by the scent. It does not go with my chemistry at all.
Beautiful smell, hyped up perfume and well worth it it’s lovely. Smell lasts for days and wears really well. Sweet but not too sweet.
It wasn’t for me, but it definitely lasted a long time.
It smells really good and sweet. Very similar to a lot of other fragrances I already own. Would not purchase the full size just due to the cost but it is really nice.
Very sweet and last a very long time. This is very hyped up perfume and it lives up to it.
I love this perfume. It’s so unique and I never get sick of smelling it. It definitely softens down but I can still smell it on clothes the next day.
This was sooo hyped up. I HAD TO TRY IT. Honestly, it's so meh. Don't get me wrong it doesn't smell bad or anything like that. The thing is..it's just not all that and a bag of chips. It's not turning heads. Been there, worse that, with a much cheaper price tag.
This is one I’m gonna have to spin the block for!
Love it!
Loved it and a little went a long way.
At first,I didn’t understand the hype around this fragrance but the more I wore it the more I fell in love with it.
Smelled great and lasted all day
I like the different payers of scents that come from wearing this perfume throughout the day. I wanted to try it before buying the bigger bottle, and I think this subscription has solidified my decision to buy it.
This scent wasnt bad but was definetly a little too spicy for my typical preference. Would wear once in a while.
Longer lasting. Great compliments. BR540 is classic
Too synthetic and too much rose.
Overall a good scent. Cloud by Ariana Grande is a cheaper dupe for it tho
For me, this is a more masculine scent. It's light and airy, but has something kind of metallic to it. I got this to see what all the hype was about. An unusual fragrance that's just not for me.
I purchased this for my wife, she loves the scent! It can also be worn as a men's fragrance but bit sweet for my taste. Perfect scent for fall/winter. She wears this everyday and will be purchasing again!
Not my favorite
I don’t wear this scent often because it’s so cliche at this point, however it’s a lovely scent. A gourmandish dental floss smell. Everyone loves it. I love it. I mix it with fresher scents to brighten the scent up.
Lingering smell, I don't like scent notes at all.
This is the perfume that specifically got a subscription for to try. I have smelled it many times but never had the chance to see how it wears on my skin. I adore the scent, but the lasting power is much better on hair and clothes than on my skin. For a perfume that’s $500 for a full bottle, I would expect significant longevity. I’m glad that I’ve had a chance to try this and I do love the scent, but I’m most likely never going to purchase a full bottle since the longevity isn’t there.
Needed to see what the hype was about. Its ok, im not a fan, this isn't something Id buy a whole bottle of.
I wanted to experience this scent after hearing hundreds of women rave about it. I had to figure out what all the hype was about! I was left feeling very underwhelmed by this scent. My husband and son loved it, both complimenting the smell without prompting. However, it wasn’t for me. It’s not a bad smell, just doesn’t have a flair or any particular note that stands out more than the other.
Love the smell on me.
Smells like moth balls or a really bad cleaning product. I sprayed this on my shirt as soon as I got it to try it, and it smelled so bad I had to change. The smell is still in my nose hours later. Will be exchanging
This is not my favorite fragrance. It does smell like an older lady to me. I was really hoping to believe all the hype about this fragrance but it’s just not for me.
I love the smell and with how i spray for me it last most of if not all day. This has easily become my favorite fragrance so only having the subscription size bottle right now im only using it for special occasions really but I’ve gotten plenty of compliments on it and everyone that i had just smell it loved it too. The 4 people (3 females and 1 male if that matters) i had smell this fragrance with 3 other fragrances and rank then from favorite to least favorite all put this as their favorite. Would definitely recommend trying if you haven’t already
Doesn't last that long. Reapplied. Went nose blind to it right off the back couldn't smell a thing.
I was dying to get it cause It smelled amazing on a coworker. It’s ok, not a big fan on how it smells On me but it’s ok overall
Beautiful
It’s okay. I actually gave it to my mom. It doesn’t last as long as I would have liked. It smells very similar to one of Zara’s fragrances and Cloud
This one certainly smells sophisticated and would do great in an office setting. I would guess this works best year round.
I remember loving this when i first sampled it a few years ago. I immediately bought the big bottle and ravaged it within a season. Now, I don't know... it seems basic. Maybe the extrait would do me some justice. Or perhaps this is just where my nose is these days. It's still pretty, just not exciting.
Smells just like Ariana grande cloud perfume I love it!
I heard so much hype about this. Not sure how I feel about it, I was sort of underwhelmed. At first I thought it lasted long, the next day not sure. Maybe because I love LV fragrances. I’m going to wear it some more to see.
It isn't that strong but I love the scent. I find myself having to keep spraying more to keep the smell around. It's different and I like it. I want to keep smelling it ??
I love it! I'm committing to the purchase.
Pretty. This is definitely an interesting fragrance and it wore nicely on me and smelled great. It had good longevity and I’m glad I had a chance to try it. I think I came in a bit too late and it didn’t live up to the (extensive) hype for me, but it was fun to try!
I got it for my sister.. she loves the scent. It lasts all day. She usually wears Chanel and Flowerbomb… but this is her favorite right now
Sexy, Yummy, smoldering seduction in a bottle. Love a first mist.
I don’t care what fragrance snobs say- this will always be fragrance royalty. She’s luxurious, sexy, beautiful. Often imitated but never duplicated. She had me in a chokehold the first time I smelled her.
Very nice fragrance long lasting
I had just a few sprays. I thought it was not long lasting. However the next day I can still smell it in my room. I am assuming it lasts very well on fabrics. The smell is pretty good. I'm not sure if I would buy it considering the retail value of it. It was pretty good wear.
Love this scent. It’s like the dupe but is not overpowering. It’s light and airy with a fresh smell. The dupe is very strong and seems to last longer as far as smelling up a room before you walk into it.
NIce but does not last long.
Better mixed with a vanilla scent.
This was a blind buy and when i first sprayed it i thought it smelled almost identical to Tiziana Terenzi's Spirito Fiorentino although i think Spirito smells a little better.Dont get me wrong BR540 smells wonderful i just think Spirito is a better version. To each his own ......
I HATED this smell. As soon as I sprayed it, I was like “nope” and the longer it was on, the worst it got. I don’t see what the hype is about.
Very light scent but a nice one.
I really don’t see what all the hype is. It doesn’t smell luxurious to me, is smells like a dime store perfume. It's a bit loud and dries down too powdery. No thanks, I am returning. To try another Kurkdijan fragrance.
Smells great in tube until you spray it. I have a love/hate relationship with this scent.
Love this. Gave one to my fiance!
Not for me. Has a strong smell of waxy lipstick. I do like it on other people. Just not for me. Oh well.
I freaking love this scent. Perfect to layer with Forest Essentials Nargis scent.
Maybe for you but not for me. Didn't work well with my body chemistry. However... it was amazing on a friend. So not for everyone but a good scent overall. For some the scent will be just ok or not at all and others it's amazing. Everyone's body chemistry is different. I gave it 3 stars for inconsistency.
Leave it. Only fragrance I have returned so far, and I really don't get the hype. Smells similar to Another 13 which I also don't like. For some reason I think of old lady when I smell both. I know both are loved, so its probably just me. It does stick tho, I had to scrub in the shower to get rid of the smell.
Love everything about this one! Lingers forever. Strong leather and almond notes which I love. Wish it were not so pricey though. This is def a tie for my favorite perfume though. This is a winter perfume for sure!
It took me a day to get used to it but once it settled on me, i was in love. My clothes still had a lingering scent the next day. It definitely gives a rich, sexy feel. Will definitely get another one.
It's just ok I don't know what all the hype is about. My husband said it smell like a chemical and that's the best way I can describe it. It's not something I would buy but I'll use what I have. I feel like it lasts long as my sister says she can still smell it on me after a long day at work.
I do not know why this is so hyped, smells exactly same as cloud by ari. It lasted about an hour and no one around me could smell it lol
Love the cool down on this it's amazing. I went through it pretty quickly. But I'll definitely buy it again!
This gets me so many compliments.
Very powerful sexy scent!
Lots of compliments!
Love the scent but it doesn’t last long at all. Maybe for about an hour but that’s it.
A truly elegant unisex fragrance. Very strong with great sillage. Also could be used year round. Worth the price!!
My favorite so far!
I resisted as long as I could but I finally tried it. I’m hooked. It is lovely. It’s warm, sweet, soft, yet assertive. It’s me and I adore it.
Very elegant scent
This was my 1st aver and I wanted the most expensive and talked abt fragrance. I was highly disappointed, the smell is definitely not for me. It's very woodsy, a little musky and a bit too masculine for my taste. Exchanged it immediately.
This was my first scent selection and was by far IMPRESSED to say the least. bacaret Rouge is simply the most beautiful perfume I've had the pleasure to try by far. I have had a staple go to perfume for years and although I still love it, I thought it was time to expand my collection and ScentBox is definitely the way to go. This perfume is sexy, soft and elegant. I love the notes that linger all day. Can't wait to see what next months pick is like. Thank you SCENTBOX... I'm dazzled and so happy I decided to give this a try.
Staple, classic scent, can wear throughout the year, day or night. Great for layering with other scents. The EDP doesn’t last long, though. Need to try the extrait
I really love this fragrance. This is the second time I have ordered and will be purchasing a full size bottle soon. As others have said. I do not smell it much on myself but receive so many compliments from others when I am wearing it. I understand that many women use perfume to enjoy it on their own, but what a confidence builder when you are constantly being told how wonderful you smell.
it is sooooo good
This perfume its fantastic. I love the scent. Its aromatic, soft, but yet sweet enough to make the perfect combination.
WOW! The balance in this scent is amazing. Great floral, sweet and a hit of earthy. I was expecting over the top sweet and vanilla, not at all an overwhelming gourmand scent. This is playful and sophisticated at the same time.
Amazing! super sweet and sugary. Everyone around me liked it. Highly recommend.
Very good
I wanted to wait to see how long it lasts before submitting a review, but I couldn’t!! I absolutely LOVE this perfume; I’m obsessed already, and it hasn’t even been an hour since I put 1 spray on my wrist. I’ve been leaving the scent in every room in my house; my fiancé loves it. I normally can’t smell the perfume I am wearing, but with this one it’s a different story!
Smell good. I feel like I smelt this scent before. However, I hear it’s a popular classic.
This is a very unique scent in ways that you do not smell it on yourself; however, others can smell it on you. I am not good at describing scents. But, I will say that this scent is a classy and rich vibe fragrance.
It smells amazing . I am completely in love !!!
great smell for the office a real head turn
Could barely smell it and it didn't even last 4 hours. I don't see what the big deal about this perfume is. I would never pay full price for a bottle of it.
This smelled so good, I bought the full size bottle.
Absolutely love this fragrance. I have gotten so many compliments.
Love it!
Long lasting woody/floral gourmand. A mature, romantic show stopper. I get compliments from both men and women.
I thought that I was going to be disappointed because all the dupes I was smelling wasn’t giving me that wow factor but once I got the real deal I was amazed I see myself buying multiple so I don’t run out it’s long lasting it projects very well and once you pair it with another scent it gives u a while different scent that smell amazing definitely worth spending the coin for
I love this scent and always get compliments.
If you love musk and amber this is the one for you, I wanted to try for so long and to be honest I was overwhelmed at first it’s such a complex fragrance but I keep coming back and I love LOVE love the way it smells on me and how long it wears on my skin. It’s amazing!!!!
By far the worst fragrance I've ever used. I'm not sensitive and I had to shower, it gagged me, it smells like old grandma breath YUCK maybe a rich wealthy grandma but very gross!!!
I was really hopeful based on the hype for this fragrance but it is not for me. It is nice but heavy. I am going to continue to use it in different environments, maybe with layering, to see what works.
I cant small it. I waited so long to have it and I can't smell anything
Love this scent
This scent was not for me. It had an old lady feel to it. I didn't give it much time as I could not get past the top notes.
It smells like a very old lady its definitely not for someone young & fun
Smells soooo good. Tried many similar ones but nothing lasts as long. I could still smell it just as strong at the end of the day. 10/10
Love it!
Love this scent, it's very polarizing. You either love it or hate it. I like the woody, amber tones.
This fragrance is a masterpiece. I try to look for new perfumes that give me the same effect as this one but I can’t find it. I always result back to this perfume. I’ve even been trying layering options.
Don’t really understand the hype about this perfume, it’s way too expensive & doesn’t last long in my opinion..
I’m sorry if this offends anybody, but I don’t get what the big deal is about this fragrance. It was weak, it didn’t last even an hour, and wasn’t very appealing to me.
I am looking for a new scent and saw all the hype about this one. While there is nothing wrong with the scent, I consider it 'average'. Once you factor the price in, it's a solid NO for me. It starts off fairly soft, a little powdery and sweet, under that - a little woody, then dissipates quickly for me. I'll use this, but it'll be a weekday/work fragrance.
Definitely overhyped. The initial scent is lovely. Sweet...but it doesn't last. The lingering spice scent reminds me of Replica By The Fireplace.
I think I ruined myself with this cologne because I smelled it once and I enjoyed it and then I ended up getting a bottle of Instant Crush by mensara and it's so Amplified and overpowered that when I got this sample, I was pretty underwhelmed. A decent fragrance but the projection is not good and it doesn't last very long
This is definitely not what I expected especially for over 300 a bottle. It's very strong sticky almost cheap smelling to me. If you like loud sticky sweet smell. I don't like this at all. Love that you can try through scentbox without wasting so much money. Guessing how long I had to wash it off.
From all the hype I expected more! It smells good and all but IT DIDN'T LAST! n I knew it wasn't a room filler but I expected someone sitting close to me would smell it! VERY DISAPPOINTED!
I love it. Smells unique, a great sigmature scent.
Absolutely love it!! My favorite so far.
don’t get me wrong, this smells good but the toe behind this cologne when i’ve already had several imo that are better left me off disappointed. it does last long but can’t smell this cologne very far and only smelled by people you let near you. i would recommend to try if you have this subscription but not to buy the $350 bottle.
I don’t get the hype. It’s not horrible or anything, just not what I expected. I sent it back and asked for something else.
Very nice scent, I can see why it became so popular. It does have a very powerful alcohol scent when first sprayed but one it dries down it’s great! Can smell it all day long on me but it doesn’t really fill a room
Smells like my grandma at church. Horrible.
This is probably one of my favorite perfumes. It is easy to go nose blind to the scent. Usually it will last a while. Unfortunately, I have heard that some of the bottles smell like rubbing alcohol/have something wrong, and it seems that might have been the case for the one I received from here.
Smells like money!!! In a good way!!!
Uhhhhh…NO! On me, and to my nose, it just smells like generic cleaning chemicals. Everyone in my house tried it, none of us liked it. Honestly, I’m glad I don’t like it. Way too expensive anyway. I love love love the sweet stuff. This is just a big “nope” from me.
My wife really liked this one. I also really enjoyed it!
Great scent, however with how many clones of this are out there I’d save your money and go with Armaf Untold or Franck Olivier Pure Addiction.
Lots of hype here. it smells really good. $325 good? you'll have to decide. does smell great though but not enough for me to purchase full size
No no no no no. I have no idea how this perfume gained cult following status because I cannot stand it. Smells like smoker's breath mixed with seaweed. I cannot stand it. I know this is one of those that is supposed to mix with your brain chemistry and become irresistible, but both me and my husband almost started gagging on first sniff. I had to go take a shower and change because I was sitting on the couch near my husband and he eventually had to ask me if I could go wash it off because it was making him feel ill. It was making me feel the same way but I was trying to tough it out thinking I would start to like it after smelling it for a while. I definitely did not
It smells like I spilled a children's juice box on myself. It is very sweet smelling. I think it smells like a women's perfume but my wife thinks it smells like a man's cologne. It has some good undertones but I can't get past the sweet smell. Overhyped in my opinion.
Love this scent. The best one so far
Like the scent expected it to last longer
): I WANTED TO LOVE THIS FRAGRANCE! :( But I have to be honest. Initial smell was a sweet candy that dried down to an overwhelming plastic smell. I can't get past this pungent sharp scent of a doctor's office. Such a bummer because I was SO ready to shell out the big bucks for the full size bottle. I am very thankful for Scentbox, because I will be exchanging this for something more my style. P.s. A little tip would be to layer this fragrance with another scent to tone down the overpowering Ambroxan that comes through.
Smells okay. Kinda sweet for me. Over hyped for sure.
I really like this scent.
Goes away quickly, also has a very feminine smell in my opinion
Fresh scent that will turn heads
I really like it. I just wish it lasted. I haven’t found a perfume that lasts on me. I will use it daily. The only reason why it’s not 5 stars is because it doesn’t last on me.
This scent is addictive. My first impression was Hollister-like cologne with cedar whiffs. The more I wear it though, the more I get these delicious candy undertones. It's spicy, but sweet and creamy too. It's soooo good. One of my favorites, for sure.
REEKED. My GOD ?? I wanted to like this so bad because I like many other fragrances that are considered adjacent like CLOUD but this was SO nasty. It smelled sour and like BO. When I first tried it, it had barely any smell. I waited again and tried it the next day. It was heinous. Had to wash it off. So sad. Maybe I’m one of the people who smells iodide or maybe it’s a body chemistry issue but ??
This is one of those smells that you don’t like when You first spread but the longer it sits the better it starts to smell
Really like the smell but it doesn't last.
Yes I see why everyone loves it!!! It has a rich but in my words relaxed smelled. Not over doing it but still making a statement. The scent lasted for sometime. I got compliments on it!!
Love it!!
Love, love, love! I get so many compliments when I wear this one.
I wanted to love this, it’s not bad but immediately gave me a headache.
I love the scent but it doesn't project
It's unique. Not floral. Just different. I get compliments when I wear it. It has staying power for sure. Still smell it in my hair next day.
Smells amazing and the fragrance is very long lasting especially on the skin
Smells great.
Smells much better on skin then clothing. I think overhyped tho
Good is you like woody/ fresh
Doesn’t live up to hype
At first, I couldn’t understand the hype. The next day I gave it another shot, then I really started to like it. The opening of cloud is spot on, but the dry down is much different. BR 540 is much better. The silage is great as well as longevity. Just purchased a big bottle.
Not as great as i thought it would be
LOVE! Lots of compliments
Love love love this fragrance! Definitely saving up to buy a full bottle of this beauty. It’s a subtle sweet and airy scent that is so inviting! I want shower in it!
My favorite scent!!!
It's a classic, I'm glad I could get my hands on a small size rather than paying the hefty price of a full bottle!
Very Good
My wife is still undecided on this fragrance, but I'm hooked on how it smells on her. It smells like a chocolate hard candy.
Love it!
Not impressed at all….. Smells like old lady and chemicals . Certainly didn’t meet the expectation or the hupe
Favorite scent! Love it.
Fell in love with this upon receiving it. It’s all things a little floral but not overwhelming. Very decadent and warm.
I'll need to wear it more to see for sure. I sprayed a couple sprays on the wrists neck and shirt and I didn't smell it at all an hr later. I didn't wanna over do it cause it was my first time using it but not what I was expecting. I've smelt it on other people and it's fire as far as the scent goes. Next time I'll just have to bathe in it to really see what it's like on me cause I didn't smell a thing
Smells great on my man and lasts such a long time. Beautiful masculine fragrance. Not the usual
I'm so disappointed after the hype and reviews on this. 1 out of 10, do not recommend. Its giving dusty grandmother, and old Karen.
At first I didn't really like this scent at all, and thought it was overpriced and overhyped. It was strong and mature. However, after actually wearing it out and about, I fell in love. This has staying power. The first time I wore this after a night out, I came home and snuggled under a blanket on my couch. I could still smell the residual scent on the same blanket weeks later. This scent quickly and unexpectedly grew on me, and it's now one of my favs even though I wish it wasn't due to the price tag.
To me, doesn’t smell too too different than the Ariana grandes cloud perfume. I like her perfume and I like this but for the cost, I’d like to smell more distinct differences. Perhaps my nose is is compromised still from prior Covid as well lol
This was not for me. It is powerful, heavy and lasts forever! One light spray on each wrist was too much. After scrubbing with soap and hot water, I could still smell it , although much more bearable. Remains on my clothes days later. The dry down is gourmand and sweet. Quite pleasant in small doses. However the main notes of this to me are masculine, reminiscent of a suffocating men's cologne. Those notes disappear and then reappear randomly for me. I noticed that it also really projects in a warm room. Can't believe that this was all observed by what was left after scrubbing it off! I really wanted to like it and if it was just the sweet gourmand dry down, I would. I just really don't like the main character of this scent. I totally understand how this is a love/hate thing for people.
It's true that it is not as strong as the original. In fact it is extremely lighter. Smells nice but it goes away so fast. The first 4 sprays I think were the strongest. I will eventually unsubscribe to find a good duplicate.
It does smell good but it’s not masculine at all. It’s sweet and smells like cotton candy.
Interesting, pleasing smell. Doesn't last long for the cost.
Good. But more feminine for sure
Absolutely NOT what I was expecting. Smelled watery and weak. My wife and I both agreed.
Smells irresistible. I get compliments every time I wear this. My wife hates the fact that I smell so delicious that other women are always commenting.
This is the perfect date night/cold weather fragrance. It’s warm with citrus and amber notes. The fragrance lasts all day on me and is not “old lady” or powdery smelling in the least. I have placed it in my rotation with Chance by Chanel and YSL Black Opium.
I love this scent but it's really soft. Anyone saying it smells like "old lady/grandma" is not telling the truth. I doesn't last that long either (but will get a small whiff everyone in a while/recommend spraying it on clothing instead of skin). Price range is just not worth it but love the sample with the subscription.
Yep! Its good! I was so worry I would barely smell it, or i would be disappointed but nope! Its amazing and it really is one of a kind!
I was so excited to receive this after all the hype i had seen about it....don't believe the hype. Only sprayed it once and that was enough to develop a aversion to this, even my family requested I not spay in the house again. Absolutely awful smelling , Smells like plastic and old people!
I dont get why people like this? It smells like an old grandma rotted in a dumpster.
Smells good but doesn’t last long at all
I loved it!
Love this!!!!!
It's good but not really feeling the Hype slightly overrated. Probably just me. Glad I tried it.
Best shit ever !!
Love love love this scent! I get so many compliments every time I wear it.
Such a sophisticated scent. It is my new favorite.
I love wearing this scent. My wife compliments me so much and even borrows it from time to time. I am more feminine and she is more masculine and we can both enjoy it equally.
Smells sooooo good! I wear new scents at night so I can see how long they last on skin/clothing. This was still going strong the next morning. I sprayed a blotter and laid it on my nightstand and for 2 days that was all you could smell when I came in my room. Very strong!! I’m figuring out just how much to spray so it’s not overpowering.
I can see why this is so popular. It just has that air of luxury to it. The amber notes are really the star of the show and it smells like beautiful body lotion. It seems to last longer and smell nicer on my clothes versus on my skin but after spraying it this morning, I can still smell it. Not sure if I'd be able to justify the price for a full-sized bottle, but it is very, very nice.
Smells amazing-wears off really quickly on skin though ?? it seems to last longer if sprayed on clothing.
I love it smell so good it’s my favorite I wished last longer.
Long lasting smell of amber and florals, she projects on me super well. Definitely worth the price in my opinion.
Strong and feminine, but not long lasting
I feel bad giving this 2 stars as I believe that maybe it's my DNA BUT this smelled AWFUL to me. I could smell it before I even sprayed it. I don't know how to describe it but I do have an aversion to Saffron, which apprently this does have in it (though I didn't specifically smell that?). My daughter and husband said it smelled good but I couldn't STAND it. It smelled like cheap, pungent Walgreens cologne. Straigh up chemical. Again, this was probably my chemical make up, DNA, whatever you would like to call it but TERRIBLE to me.
I love this scent, I get many compliments where ever I go. The ladies love it
Perfect scent. Not too sweet or powdery or floral, just fresh and very sexy. Has a very crisp, fresh, elegant, unisex quality that the copycats (Ariana Grande’s Cloud for example) don’t quite get right.
An absolutely beautiful, unisex fragrance. I have worn it twice and have received several compliments both times. Stunning and complex. One of a kind fragrance. Projects like crazy!
Crazy good
With the first use, I was so reminded of Ariana Grande's Cloud that I couldn't understand the hype. Now that I've worn it a few times, I'm picking up on the uniqueness and I really do love it. It's incredibly long lasting, and it does have an airy, elevated cotton candy vibe. If you like sweet scents, I think you'll like it. I want to put it on every day, and I could see getting the small size again when I run out.
This smell lived up to its hype. I used one spray on my wrist and could smell it all day long. Worth the sample price for sure.
I love this scent, but definitely not worth the price. It doesn’t stay long. I have an oil version that stays much longer.
Very sultry but also very strong and a little too spicy to use every day
I wanted to try this because it's so highly rated and people seem to go crazy for this scent. When I sprayed it I couldn't smell it unless I put my nose close to my wrist. The only thing I could smell is burnt sugar. I'm not sure if this scent doesn't project or it's just my nose. It was a skin scent on me. However, the staying power is amazing. Even after washing the places I sprayed I could still smell it. It was hours after I sprayed! In fairness I just don't think I like this scent profile. I haven't cared for any scent that was suppose to smell similar.
I love this scent. I want a huge bottle!
This is beautiful. The scent is captivating, alluring. I love that it’s not overpowering. The longevity it perfect in that it does not define you.. but becomes a part of your aura. It lingers and that’s so sexy!! I love a fragrance that keeps you craving and this is it!! A beautiful scent and a beautiful design.
Smells great just wished the scent lasted longer.
Very complex fragrance! It is a top 10 for sure.
My husband asked me what was burning ?? I thought it smelled nice but he obviously didn’t like it. Plus it gave me a rash… contact dermatitis to be exact.
This fragrance is delicious. If you like intense smells then this is the smell for you.
Have wanted to try this fragrance for years, just out of my price range. The lingering scent makes you feel confident and sexy!
Not worth the hype at all, nor the price tag, glad I got the travel instead of blind buying the fragrance, Orientica Amber Rouge is an EXACT DUPE of this with a lesser price tag
It didn’t dry down well on me.
Long lasting and beautiful fragrance
I got this just to see what the hype was about and I can say it’s giving sexy
I really like this scent, it's very feminine without being heavy floral or sickly sweet. I would probably get it in my subscription again but having smelled it I do not feel inclined to purchase a full bottle at the exorbitant price. This will see occasional use in my lineup but definitely not signature scent or something I'd want to wear regularly as it causes a slight headache for me with just one spray
This is an okay scent. The cedar notes dominate for me and make it very masculine smelling. This was a great way to try it out and I will use this perfume it just isn't my favorite and I have to layer it to enjoy it.
It smells like cotton candy or slightly burned sugar. Not a great scent on me.
Smells sexy, delicious, n expensive. Always get compliments from all gender
Not a projection type of fragrance and no exact notes of anything natural. But overall a great scent!
Amazing smell
Smells good last couple hours however for the price point I would go with Ariana Grande cloud perfume
I think is a controversial fragrance due to its popularity and price. Some people love it, some hate it. I had read prior that arianna grandes could is a dupe for this, and that’s spot on. Obviously BC540 lasts way longer but if you’d like to know what it smells like, try Arianna grandes cloud!
I had seen this mentioned everywhere online. Many people were singing its praises while others were convinced it was gross or just an overpriced product with a much more affordable dupe (Ariana grande Cloud). I already own Cloud so I was curious to see how similar they were as well as what all the fuss was about. Having smelled both now I can say they are very similar. To me Cloud is sweeter than BR540. After smelling it I also understand why people love it so much. I really love it. I think I like it more than cloud, but I’m not sure that I can justify the expense of a full size bottle. For now I’m planning to thoroughly enjoy my sample.
So, I’ve been using a dupe for over a year, and I wanted to try the real deal. I honestly like the dupe more because it smells identical but is much stronger. Lovely scent!
I love it!!
I love how this smells. It has a very cotton candy dry down smell to me. It doesn't last a long time, but while it's there it's *chef's kiss*
I can see why people love this scent but I found it was way too masculine on myself. Wore for about a week and had multiple people asking if I was wearing men's cologne. Have loved this scent on others though!
Smelt amazing my wife loved it and i got plenty of compliments
Love it!
Oddly, I can't smell this on myself - but I get tons of compliments when I wear it.
Love the scent but doesn't last as long on the skin as I hoped.
A few things here that left me with 3 star energy. It does smell nice but too familiar for the price tag. I have at least 2 perfumes that smell just like it and better…and cheaper…and lasts waaaay longer. That’s something that really disappointed me…it doesn’t last long AT ALL! For the price that this goes for…it should last way longer. Maybe because I wear a lot of Arabian perfumes…hmmm. I genuinely do not understand all of the hype around this specific perfume. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice but it’s not unique at all and I really wish that it packed a punch and/or lasted longer. I might smell it a bit after 3 hours, maybe. And if I do it’s bc I did a good amount of pumps. But who wants to spray 4-5 times after you pay this much, ya know?!
I can understand why its a popular smell but it was not for me. I tried really hard to like it but at the end I didn't enjoy wearing it.
I was really excited to try this one, but was disappointed. Both me and my fiance thought it smelled like AXE body spray. Don't understand the hype for this perfume and if anything, it smells more like a men's cologne.
Love the scent, but it definitely does not live up to the hype! Seems like it wears off quickly and doesn't smell very strong at all. Was expecting soooo much more!
Yes
For it to be so hyped, I'll just stick with my Dossier dupe
Love it smells amazing!
I must be the only person on the planet, but just don't really like this one much. It is OK, but definitely not worth how much hype it gets in my opinion.
beautiful
Absolutely love this perfume it is the only one of my selections that I was actually impressed with, it smells divine, it lasts, and received nothing but compliments, will be purchasing full size in this!!
I love the way it smells, but it seems like it wears off quickly.
It smelled good, but a pretty mild scent. Didn't really live up to the hype.
Smells great and lasts through a 12 hour work day!
Smells AMAZING however, i have never gotten any compliments unless i got hugged
Beyond amazing
Amazing can't get enough smells great last forever
While I enjoy the fragrance I don't think it lives up to the cost or the hype ..luckily this is the exact reason I have scent box .. I def would enjoy wearing this but it is something u have to re apply the 30 days wouldn't last an actual 30 to wear this because it doesn't last at all. Scent wise it's nice. Sexy but basic . I want more from something that's said to be one of the most expensive perfumes there is
Honestly not worth the hype. I thought it smelt bad… the scent last a long time though my shirt still held a little of the fragrance the next day
It smells like nothing? I don't understand the hype at all.
loved the scent. just wasn’t strong enough for date to smell
Love it and I get so many compliments!!
I am enjoying this fragrance so far. The scent lasts the whole day approx 8 hrs. My fiance commented that I smell good but gear towards a more mature scent. For reference, Im in ny 30s.
My absolute favorite! I love pretty much everything from Maison Francis Kurkdjian but this ones the best! It lasts forever and compliments any occasion.
I love this fragrance it’s really expensive but that is why I got scent box because other providers of the smaller bottles didn’t give me my money worth
Baccarat Rouge is an interesting fragrance. A strong musk is right at the top, pleasantly earthy and slightly animal. It is powdery, more in a dry quality than baby powder. It quickly become transparent and vaporous, and evolves into less a fragrance than a presence. It’s sense of presence is its greatest quality and the best accomplishment of the perfumer - it is an aura rather than aroma.
ok i was so excited to sample this because everyone and their mother loves this and the hype is insane but omg... it just smells like burning latex to me. wtf.
I love the top citrus notes that descend into a slightly-sweet, woody, almost musk-like finish. It doesn’t last at the strength I like, to the length of time that I prefer, but that’s just a minor detail.
Gorgeously warm & sexy fragrance
Lovely fragrance, definitely see the hype about it however on me the longevity is weak. After a couple of hours it dries down very light.
I tried the fragrance because of YouTube. The fragrance is okay but I swear I have smelled this scent before, I can’t remember by who.
Social media got me excited to try this scent. It was just ok on me. I understand that everyone is different. It wasn't for me
Gorgeous. My signature scent
I love this so much, but I become aosmic to it quickly.
Very sexy scent
It's a TikTok made me try it. Not my typical perfume family, but decided to give it a go. I liked it a lot, hubby liked it as well, just prefers other perfumes on me over this one.
It’s expensive. I wanted to sample it first. It does smell amazing. It’s in my top 5 right now. I only wear for evening or special occasions. I do find myself spraying on more because I love the scent. I remember I wore a jacket and didn’t wear it for a few more days and the scent was still there.
My favorite fragrance of 2022
Love the smell but doesn’t last long.
Amazing, I keep hearing reviews that its overhyped so I lowered my expectations but it smells delicious
I was not sure what I was expecting but it’s a very soft intense fragrance. Smells lingers all day pairs really well with pretty much everything and definitely will get you compliments. Definitely would get again
LOVED the scent but it did not last at all. I don't know if mine came defected but it does not last
Super disappointed. I think it barely smells like anything. It is like sugar, bandaids and cardboard. Luckily it is super faint. Honestly I think I want to return it for something else. Considering I paid $30 for 8ml. I’d rather have something that actually smells good on me.
It’s over hyped , dark and rich amber smell. It last an ok amount of time but I have other scents that smell way better than this if your looking for something classy and “material girl” like you’ll be disappointed.
I was not impressed. It feels like it’s missing something. Like a pot without a lit. Boring, bland. The only way it works for me is to layer it with another perfume.
Cream of the crop
This one is my favorite!!
A beautiful scent that I enjoy a lot for both males and females. It’s hard for me to describe other than fancy, smells a bit like a really nice mall, and it’s more gourmand than I had expected. I only use a few sprays, so with more sprays I’m sure it would last longer.
Smells really good
Excellent longevity. Projection isn't great on my skin, but on cloth it's fantastic. Days later, it's still on my jacket. I get a smoky sugar with a touch of saffron, plus the cedar and fir. It isn't earth-shattering for me, but it's a pleasant neutral. My husband likes it a lot, but I'm more of a deeper, darker scent kind of gal. This isn't that. I'm still happy with it and will continue to wear it when I need a cheery scent.
Everytime I wear this, someone comments on how good I smell. I love this one.
I am in love with this and it lingers on my clothes for days!
I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect with the BR 540. I thought it would emit an intense spiciness but it ended up being quite sweet on my skin. However, it’s a complex, sexy, grown up sweet - not at all like candy or icing. It’s very long lasting on me and I honestly can’t get enough of it. You certainly can’t box this fragrance into just one category - it could be for any occasion during any season in my opinion. It’s so intoxicating! I would recommend that everyone at least give this a try. You might just be pleasantly surprised.
The smell is a little too strong for me. Reminds me of R.E.M by Ariana Grande. I’d say get that one instead. It’s less potent but very similar fragrance.
Nice warm amber scent but does not last.
I was super excited to try it out and am afraid to say it smells like straight up medicine on me. It's long lasting thou. I mixed it with cloud and I liked them together
Every time I wear this scent I am flooded with compliments and it seems everyone stone me loves it! The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because I don’t personally love the way it smells on my body.
Wow ! Literally all I can say ??????
This is now one of my favorite perfumes!! So many compliments
Is it full bottle worthy? Yes, the hype is real. The smell is inviting, sensual and sophisticated with just a little fun! Though I love it, I first purchased a dupe from Dua which I fell in love with so BR 540 has been in comparison to that one and it has admittedly fallen just a little short. Dua Casino Royale Cotton Candy is BR 540 times a million. It is everything special about BR but elevated. I am still after a full bottle of BR though.
I really love it. Beautiful sent
Overall I liked the scent. I was expecting more because of all the hype. It’s a very sweet scent. It does last forever which is nice.
Smells good initially, but there's no staying power. 15 minutes after I put it on I can't smell it anymore and no one else can either.
I wasn’t sure about this initially because it has amber/musk undertones and I generally do not those scents, but I ADORE this fragrance! It smells great and my husband loves it on me. I do wish it had better longevity given the price, but I’d order again.
I was so excited to get this bc of all the vital tik toks. As soon as I got it I sprayed it and thought this reminds me of something... it smells exactly like Cloud. So I was definitely kinda disappointed bc yeah it smells ok but not worth the price and u can just get cloud.
I have Ariana Grande's Cloud and love it, but it is nothing compared to this fragrance. Men come up to me and tell me I smell good, which is something that never happens when I wear Cloud. Love this one!
Beautiful and delicate fragrance. It’s like a mix of Not A Perfume by Juliette Has A Gun meets Delina by Parfum’s de Marly. Longevity on my skin was not the greatest but you have a good couple hours.
It's terrible, strong smells like a cologne!
Very nice. Not an everyday perfume, but a beautiful fragrance for a special occasion or date night.
this reminds me of the way my house smells when making Coquito. its warm with a little spice a great winter smell.
It smells like Cloud by Ariana Grande
I didn't expect to like it but I loved it. I'm not usually a fan of trends and it seemed like this hot so much hype. I wanted t try out of curiosity and I was completely surprised. It's like nothing I already have or can think of and I will be investing in a full size! Must HAVE
I love it !!! It is a soft clean smell.
Love this scent
Love It!!!!
Everything I thought it would be and more. It's kinda sweet in a suuuper subtle way. Plus men seem to dig it ??
It smells amazing but I feel like the longevity could last longer
We've all heard how mesmerizing this scent is...and I have to completely agree. There is something so alluring and warm about this fragrance, and it lingers so perfectly all day after dry down. It's hard not to overuse it because I just want to keep smelling myself! Nothing but compliments from other people on this one.
Let's start with the pros. Unique scent, very long lasting and strong projection. Leans feminine. However, it smells synthetic and sticky like spilled well drinks at a college bar. Cloying for sure. Overall distasteful and annoying in my opinion. I don't get the hype so I sent my sample back.
Absolutely love the scent!!!
Starts off very musky and develops to become sweeter. Definitely a new favorite.
I heard so many great things about this. It’s a nice smell but I wasn’t blown away by it like I expected to be. It was just okay for me.
Always
This is the best scent ever. I was unsure on first spray but it develops so beautifully
Bad itch vibes perfume ! I absolutely love this smell, makes me feel so rich
I love the smell but unfortunately doesn’t last long on me or radiate.
This smells amazing. Like burnt sugar initially and then it opens up to a beautiful citrus scent. Leaves behind a clean smelling soap on the dry down. Overall it makes me feel happy.
Love this perfume so much! It lives up to the hype.
I've heard some people think this is the best fragrance they've ever smelled. I wouldn't say that, but it is a nice fragrance
Love it! Best perfume in the market!
The amount of compliments I got with this perfume ????
This has to be one of the Best Fragrances I have ever smelled
Love it! Ariana’s cloud perfume is definitely a dupe for this. Baccarat Rouge 540 smells less sweet than cloud and I actually like that a lot better.
This scent is much softer than expected. It's a very sultry scent with notes of indulgence and radiant beauty. Many compliments are given to its wearer, as it is complex and inclusive.
Used to love this scent but don’t as much. It does last a long time. Just something about it I doing like.
It settles and smells so good and long lasting definitely worth a purchase
This has to be #1 on my list of fav fragrances. It’s just such a pretty scent… however this perfume does NOT last long which is why I’ve given this 4stars. It’s like the Cinderella of scents comes out with a big bang then at 12 she’s out of there (unless I’ve been using it wrong) this is one of those scents you want to smell like 24hours but it only last 2-3 hours Such a bummer especially for the price of a full bottle.
The longevity is beast mode. Once you spray it on, it’s there until the next day. I can still faintly smell it after showering! I gave it four stars because of the scent. The scent is nice, really nice. But by the way everyone is raving about it, I thought it would have been a lovelier smell. I’m still thinking about purchasing a full bottle though…
I Didn’t Want to believe that Cloud was a Dupe, BUT DAM Ariana truly Copied This Juice and PUT it In Her OWN Bottle ! Wow !! Thanks scentbox for letting me try it at a tenth of the price, it’s Not on my Bucket list no more. To think I was going to spend 300 nope…. Ariana’s Cloud it is ..
The opening is a sweet and spicy mixture, and dries down on the sweet side, which I prefer. There is something in here which smells a little odd but the overall smell of the fragrance is good and covers it up.
So I love the scent of this perfume (sweet and feminine) but either it doesn’t last long or I simply become nose-blind to it, because after an hour or two I can’t even smell it anymore. And I literally have to spray 4-5 times to even make a truly noticeable scent. For $300 perfume I would expect more of an impact! I do enjoy the scent though (and every time I wear it my husband tells me I smell good) but I don’t think I would ever spend $300 for this perfume. It’s too subtle for my liking.
Amazing sophisticated scent. It’s now my go to luxury fragrance.
One of my favs
Was really hoping it lived up to all the hype. It started out smelling wonderfully fruity but then faded to a woodsy, musky scent which was very faint. Even though the scent didn't last long it still had a nice soft scent.
Amazing sweet, refined and definitely a statement, the epitome of class... a light sweet vanilla, beautiful fragrance...sadly doesn't last on my skin
This fragrance is stunning, since trying it I haven’t reached for anything else. Warm, sweet and a hint of something fresh. It’s so good I don’t care if I smell like everyone else.
I know everyone is crazy about it but I’m not a fan. It’s too sweet for me but when I had it on some people liked it.
Was so excited when I ordered this fragrance, but right off the bat it gave me flashbacks to Ariana Grande Cloud which was a fragrance that did not settle well with me.
I know that this perfume is so popular and I wanted to love it and it first smells good but the musky note after it dries down on me is way too strong. Gives me a crazy headache and makes me super nauseous after the good part is gone.
Wonderful, delicate smell. Quite feminine though. I love it!
Love!
Amazing!!! I had high expectations for this perfume based on its reputation and it did not disappoint. This is the most unique fragrance I’ve come upon…burnt sugar…woodsy…success…It’s hard to describe just get it, wear it and love it.
Lovely Scent… Expected More From It!!
At first sniff, I didn't really get the hype. However, I sprayed BR 540 on a couple of throw blankets, and now I love it. This really is a unisex fragrance; my husband has pretty much stolen it from me- it's his new favorite.
Love it....it doesn't last all day but I'm still in love with it....
This fragrance has blown me away completely! It’s earthy and smoky, but it’s equally as sweet as it is spicy it’s like matured candy is the most brilliant thing I’ve ever smelled in my entire life. I was so surprised by it. The bottle makes you think it’s going to be there’s a very strong and spicy woody smell but it’s so sweet at the same time. My only wish is that it lasted longer. If it lasted all day, I would buy this and only this for the rest of my life.
I loooove this one. I didn’t like it years ago when I first smelled it but it sure has grown on me. Each time I tried it I liked it a little more until I finally had to have it. If you don’t like it at first, come back and smell it at a later date. I normally loathe sweet, gourmand scents but there’s a musky note and a saffron note that balance it out in an interesting way and make it not smell cheap. Then there’s the addictive ambroxan note. There is a synthetic plasticky note that may be offputting for some but it’s nostalgic for me. It reminds me of opening a fresh toy when I was a child. Remember how some of them were scented? It’s definitely a unique scent worth checking out.
I always get compliments when I wear this one. It last all day and is still there before I shower the next day. My bf is the one who recommended it to me
So many compliments with this fragrance wish I could afford the whole bottle ????
Best scent ever…especially when layered with the sweet but subtle fragrances!!! I will buy this over and over if I could!!!
it's ok, but turns out I had a dupe at home already...ariana grande moonlight body mist! i guess knowing i got the body spray for $8 at ross kinda ruined the luxury of having THE baccarat rouge 540. once i realized it was the exact same scent I didn't even bother trying it out. but hey, go buy moonlight!!
This is my favorite scent right now. I really wish that it wasn't though because the large sized bottles retail for over $300.
I get the hype!!! This stuff is so amazing! It has a youthful, sweet fragrance that lasts!
Everytime I smelled this on someone I absolutely loved it. It's definitely unique and intoxicating in its romantic allure but I applied 2 sprays in the afternoon and it remained so strong that the scent was waking me up as I slept during the night. I got sick of it real quick.. going to try wearing it a little more subtle maybe just a spritz to the wrist or decolleté instead of the neck where I couldn't escape it
It’s gets some getting used to - for me I found the scent to be a little strong
I love this scent so much, I'm holding off on the full bottle only due to the price. I don't pick up on the medical or gasoline notes thankfully. To me it's sort of warm and woody and perfect for fall and winter. Nothing lasts long on me but this is decent.
I finally got my hands this after wearing dupes for a few years and if I would have been introduced to 540 before any of the dupes, I could honestly say I get the hype but one of the dupes I have I much prefer and is actually a signature for me. I don't get nose blind to this like many complain and I don't get the dentist office/medical vibe. Not full bottle worthy though. There are just too many good dupes!
The smell is amazing, but it is VERY VERY subtle and only can smell ot randomly on occasion well it is on. It lasts a little longer than most colognes in the sence of time and durability, but can hardly smell it anyways excluding the times it smacks you.
I do actually really like this scent. Yes, it may not be for everyone, but I like what I like. Wear what’s best for you. This was the first time trying it and I fell in love. Scentbox allows me to get it 8ml at a time without spending hundreds of dollars. I love amber scents and this one is a sweeter floral amber scent that I love. I would absolutely wear this anytime of the year. I really wish it was a beast mode performer like Montale fragrances, but even after it stops projecting you can still smell it close to the skin.
I usually don’t like fragrances like this but this one is amazing. Everyone gives me compliments on this scent. This scent reminds me of what Greece would smell like.
I really like BR540 it's like a sugary gasoline. I shared one spray between my wrists and my husband could smell me across the room. The scent lasted all day, and was a skin scent into the next. I am unsure if this should be worn in a crowded space, but I am impressed.
I love it. I put it on and it lasts all day. This says the perfume is sporty. I disagree. I think it's sexy and perfect for date night
I love love love this scent. It turns a lot of heads
Beautiful scent! I met a girl wearing this and had to ask her what it was. Once I put it on myself, I knew it would be a favorite. I usually favor the more manly lady scents but this has the perfect balance and the sweetness in this one is clean and sophisticated.
I felt nauseous immediately after spraying it. Although it lasted pretty long, even after washing my wrist where I had sprayed it. Maybe it’s not my type of fragrance.
The dry down is not feminine enough for me. Mature, spicy and long lasting but not my type of scent.
I'm very satisfied with this fragrance. And I know this may come off as naive, but it smells exactly what you would think a cotton candy fragrance for men would smell like. Soft, sweet, and subtle. Don't expect to fill a room up with your presence. Will need to get one for the collection soon!
Initial smell is sweet, but it dries down as a very masculine scent (IMO). It literally lasts all day, even when intentionally trying to wash it off! It is a synthetic formulation so beware if you are sensitive to perfumes, it gave me a headache IMMEDIATELY! It is a very nice scent for a man, IMO
It smells like new car scent on me but my friend loves it and it smells amazing to her. It smells exactly like a leathery new car scent if you ask me but I know this is very well loved so it could be chemistry.
Absolutely Amazing Smell that last all day . I love it my absolute favorite.
One of the top 10 best fragrances I've experienced. It's a sexy long lasting scent that is distinct - once I smelled it I remembered I've smelled it while out and about in public. And there's a reason it is so popular.
Smells divine!!!!
I did not like this. I don’t understand the hype. It does smell like a medical office. The dry down is tolerable. It reminds me of an older Persian lady(I am Persian, so I can say that)
Worth the hype I am obsessed! It's like a sweet smell but as it wears it turns into a more mature scent without the sweetness. Reminds me of arianna grandes cloud fragence. I wish it wore a bit longer I find it wears out in 3-4 hours
I wanted to love this but it's terrible. I can't stand the way it smells made me fell gross all day
I SO wanted to like this fragrance because I’ve heard so much about it. But honestly, it smells like gloves at a doctor’s office. And the dry down is very masculine and mature. What I CAN say is that this is the only scent I’ve come across that stays on for hours on end. Even after washing it off 3 times, the scent is just as strong as when I first sprayed it on. Tried to give it to my mom, but even SHE didn’t like it. It’s being returned.
Love this. Very fresh
Love it
smells amazing but i’ve found there’s not much staying power. i’ve heard from so many people that this lasts forever, but even with four or five sprays it’s gone after a couple hours
Smelled like piss . This absolutely stinks. I asked other people to smell it they said the same thing
Spicy...elegant and then gone. Buy the Zara or Cloud. The original is nice but the price tag for no staying power just to buy into the hype? NAH. I got it just to compare to make sure I wasn't missing out on something glorious.
Omg… totally in love… I still don’t know if I want to spend that much money… but definitely enjoying my monthly supply.
I haven’t been on a hunt for THEE perfume for me and this is #1 right now. It smells amazing and stands out from the rest.
I am enjoying this perfume and I find it quite long lasting on me, which isn’t the case for most of my perfumes. It hasn’t quite wowed me or blown me away yet. I do find it similar to scents other call “dupes”, such as Burberry Her. So… I’m still trying to figure out what’s so magical about this one to make it so popular and viral. And how it would be considered unisex - it smells more feminine to me (but obviously, wear whatever you want - everything is unisex!) However, I’m glad to have tried it through ScentBox.
My favorite scent, but doesn’t last long enough to warrant the price of a bottle.
Nice unisex fragrance but doesn’t last long.
It smelled okay after a while, but not anything I would want to wear again.
I am in love with this fragrance. It lives up to the hype. It’s romantic and feminine. I find I do need to reapply after a few hours though.
Giving this 2 stars just because I don't personally like this smell. It's powdery and makes me think of strawberry or rhubarb flavored candy. Smells like it would be expensive, very high-class smell. It smells very feminine on my skin
Nice. Can be a little sharp upon first spraying but the magic happens in the dry down beautiful amber fragrance!
Beautiful is the best way to describe this fragrance the second best universal fragrance can be men or womens however this version is more for men the other is more feminine imo this is definitely the second best unisex fragrance out behind creed Pure White which is truly hope scentbox adds to the collection. But I won’t talk on that MFK is another elite house they make only the highest quality fragrances a true niche house beautiful scent very well projected carry’s well in any weather warm or cool. Highly recommend this fragrance.
I do love the smell, but this does not last on me but for a few hours and then I can not even smell a hint of it. I even made my husband smell parts I sprayed it on to make sure it just wasn’t me. Smells great but had no staying power.
Beautiful scent, but not sure it lives up to the hype for me. Seems to disappear quickly on me and not something I'd spend $300+ to purchase a full bottle of. Maybe the extrait would have better performance.
One of my very favorites. However, I was a little surprised at the lack of performance in longevity and sillage on me. I have a dupe that smells exactly the same and performs much better.
I like it…Smells nice- very different! I would never spend the amount of money to get a bottle. I’ve bought the “ALT” version and it was the exact same!
Initially, I wasn't interested because I'm not a fan of unisex scents, but wanted to see what the hype was all about. Hands down the best fragrance I've ever worn! It smells expensive if that's possible. A little goes a long way and the scent lasts amd lingers when you leave the room. My closet smells amazing from a blouse in my bag for the cleaners. A+
Love it!! ??
This scent is classy and sexy. Sweet with just a bit of musk. It's brunch or date night worthy. A must add to any collection.
Overall a very nice scent and lasts about 3 hours noticeably. That’s worth 4 stars alone. Did seem similar to others I have tried tho
I love love love love this perfume!! It has been my favorite for years!!!!!!! I wish it lasted longer though..
Amazing everything it’s advertised to be!!
Very unique scent, smells like nothing I have. People say this fragrance is a gourmand but I seem to be picking up different notes. Definitely smell the amber and saffron but the top note reminds me of a rubber tire. It sounds like a bad thing but it’s honestly so clean and lovely, an addictive type scent. Very unisex, doesn’t lean more masc or I wouldn’t like it as I’m more inclined to buy sweet/fem fragrances. People also say this fragrance lasts 8+ hours but sadly it was only about 4-5 on my skin. That might be a personal problem though bc nothing lasts 8+ hours on me.
I love it
I don’t understand the hype, I really dislike this scent. It’s much too powdery and strong, I had to shower and scrub it off me, the scent was making me nauseous. I’ve been wanting to smell this for so long, I was so excited…what a let down. I even questioned if this was actually the right scent, but after reading some reviews, it seems I am not alone in my dislike.
Love it but it reminded me of another perfume but couldn’t quite figure out what one. It lasted all day on me. Just wish it was a little more affordable.
I love it. I wish they offered the 540 EXT. It last on my skin a few hrs but if sprayed on clothes it last longer. People wanted to know what i had on when I walked in the house.
I LOVE the way this smells. It's so unique. Sadly, it doesn't last very long on me and after a few hours of wear, I couldn't smell it at all.
My husband loves this one on me
Love it!
Sensual scent
Beautiful but not really deserving of all the hype.
It’s everything I dreamed it would be and more! All of my dupes are pretty darn close but I have to say there is something slightly different about it and the longevity is chefs kiss! I smelled it on myself all night when I went out.
I have heard so much about this perfume, and I wasn’t disappointed. Moreover, I fell in love with Baccarat from the first spray. Sweet, gourmand, chic - it’s all about Baccart Rouge. I love this smell!
This is my absolute favorite fragrance. Sweet with a little bit of spice. Not too sweet though. I'm getting the full bottle for Christmas. I've tried the dupes - there are 2 Tiziana Terenzi fragrances (Kirke and Spirito Florentino) that are similar smelling, and Burberry Her is a similar but more fruity version. Those are great, but this one just has something special that dupes lack. It's the longest lasting one as well and projects better!
Too strong and powerful scent. Too musky and powdery for me
It smells great and lasts! However, I was told it was one of the best smelling perfumes but I am not crazy over it. I will wear it but will not purchase full bottle. It is not my kind of signature scent.
I've heard this is a "you either love it or hate it" scent, and unfortunately I fall in the "hate it" box. The smell reminds me of the dentist's office. It is long lasting at least, I keep smelling it long after I wish not to.
I like the scent. It last a while on my skin.
I really do like the sent. I’m giving a lower rating because it does not last long on the skin. No staying power which is really disappointing with such an expensive brand.
Smells great and lasts
It’s great is smells so good it lasts long & has a mix of clean citrus it’s such a balanced fresh fragrance
Loved it
AMAZING!!! RICH WOMAN WITH A FUR COAT TEAS! Its giving purchase. I gives Beyonce going on a dinner date in a red dress.
Horrible. I don’t understand the rave reviews. It’s horrible. Instant headache. There’s something in the scent that’s a spic, and I don’t even want to breathe… it’s that’s bad.
Smells rich
This remind me of Kalan from PDM and I hate it, the scent gave me headache. You either will like it or hate it kind of fragrance.
Yup, worth the hype. Rich, warm, enveloping amber and subtle jasmine. Unique and special. I'm a believer.
Love this, on my skin however there’s something that smells a bit off. Almost a piss-like smell at the top notes. It wears off towards the mid notes and is gone at the base notes or dry down. This fragrance smells amazing in the air and my gf said she could still smell this even after I left for work. It’s long lasting also. This will take me through an entire work day.
Overrated. I went to the hype but it is to sweet for my taste.
Very nice.
I didn’t care for this smell at all. Glad I can return it.
The best smelling fragrance I ever had
Amazing, Sensational, Wonderful
Smells like playdough to me. I was excited to try it. Meh... Did last a long time. Couldn't wait to shower it off
Smells luxury and like nothing I’ve smelt before! I love anything with jasmine and this is the best perfume I have ever used! It lasted forever and I got so many compliments on it!
By far my favorite perfume I have ever tried. It lasts on my skin. I love the drydown and when first sprayed, it doesn't smell like alcohol.
I personally don't get the hype around this perfume at all!!! To me it smells like pool water. I don't get sweet I don't get fruity nor do I get SEXY! Longevity on me personally it lasts too long and lingers forever. I have found however that I absolutely love layering it with YSL Black opium or with other scents that don't last long. I'm really trying to love it on it's own . Not sure if I'm ever going too get there.
I tired my hardest to like it and I finally did when I actually was able to smell it. It is a very soft and light perfume, to me it had a vanilla/woodsy / marshmallows smell but its so light and fades so fast for me that I forget I even put any on me Sol de Janeiro 68 BEIJA FLOR is so similar to this perfume and pairing it allows me to smell it so much better.
Very luxurious scent but doesn’t last long
I’ve tried this fragrance for 2 weeks. It smells super sweet to me. Like pineapple juice. Did not vibe with me super disappointed
Overrated in my opinion. Burberry Her Intense is a prettier, more feminine, and longer lasting dupe. I enjoy masculine, musky scents but this had an old cedar box smell to it. I had almost purchased a large bottle as a blind buy and I'm glad I didn't.
At first it feels really heavy but wow in love now ??And definitely lasts
I like the scent but it does not even last on me. Maybe it’s my skin reacting to it differently but I barely smell anything
Amazing fragrance. Doesn’t last long but it’s very elegant and sexy
Worth the hype! Full bottle worthy
I love it, it smells Rich!
I was definitely nervous but I absolutely love it! It’s sweet, warm and def lasts long!
Great fragrance, lasts all day!
Absolutely love! Waiting for my bottle to arrive!!!!
My first thought is that I have definitely smelled this before. This immediately reminds me of a themepark (bear with me) because I definitely remember smelling this when standing in long lines all smushed together with other people. It's a common enough fragrance to sniff and say 'oh, yup. I smell this often on others.' Reminds me of the scents at Disney World... sweet and cozy scents. That said, I'm also really surprised by the profile. I've put this on both skin and paper and those aren't the notes I get. I cook with saffron, and fir and cedar aren't really what I get in any of that. I smell: Fig Sugar Amber very slight touch of Saffron In that order. It smells like a sweet, figgy pudding with a sweet amber drydown to me. It's nice- it's a smooth formulation with no hint of alcohol. To my nose it is more of a gourmand fragrance. I think it's also very inoffensive because there is no 'spice' to it. I don't smell the fir or cedar really at all- maybe a hint of cedar with the amber at drydown, but if it's there I can barely detect it. It's nice at first, but has a slight metallic tinge that later that just is offsetting to my nose. I definitely wouldn't pay full price for it- it might be worth a dupe for an easy reach- I can easily see it being a daily office signature scent. Sweet figs to me with a metallic tinge.
smells great, complex, pleasing
Loved this scent!
One of the best perfumes I’ve ever smelled. Very clean and sexy. Perfect for summertime date night.
This is a very sweet scent if you love really sweet scents. I love it but not for everyday. It sits close to the skin and is a light fragrance but needs to be or the sweetness would give a headache. So with this being said it sits just right on the skin. I wish it lasted longer though especially for the price.
I see what the hype is all about!!! Definitely an expensive fragrance!! Best quality is long lasting!!
Soft, cotton candy type of scent.
Great scent. Unique and feminine.
It dint smell like anything I literally drenched myself and did not smell a thing and no one else around did either.
Smells like money!
Great, A+, In my top 3
Beautiful scent, ALWAYS get compliments, my new favorite!
Love it!
This is absolutely my fave so far!! 10 outta 10
I love the airy sweetness that this fragrance has. You can smell the quality, plus it has good longevity and sillage. Unisex leaning feminine in my opinion. Perfect for so many occasions from work to date day/night or even a formal event. I prefer a scent like this in cooler weather (fall and winter) but I know some people like to wear it year round.
Amazing, sweet scent with powerful projection. Definitely a more feminine scent.
Beautiful fragrance. It lived up to my expectation!! A pleasant sweetness that's not overwhelmingly sweet. Received many compliments with this fragrance.
Very good and long lasting my new favorite even though it’s slightly feminine that’s ok sometimes too
This is definitely a summer evening out fragrance. It was as sweet but not over powering. The initial spray I got marshmallow and mellowed into a woodsy scent on me with a pop of marshmallow sweetness through the day and night. It is definitely one of the most long lasting and unique perfume I’ve tried.
I really wanted to love this one. I’d heard so many great things about it. However, it fell a little short for me. The dry down had a nice sweetness that I really liked, but there was a dry wordiness to it that kind of muted the sweetness more than I wanted. If heard people compare the scent to Sol de Janeiro’s Beija Flor cream and I get it. It has the sweetness that BR540 has amplified without the dry notes in the way. Overall, it is definitely not a bad fragrance. It has a subtly I truly enjoyed, like I said I wanted to like this so bad! Perhaps if I’d never tried Beija Flor I would. I think it’s a daytime fragrance, nice for everyday wear and that if you like more subtle scents, you may want to give it a try.
WOW. I was skeptical since this has been so hyped up for so long. I finally got around to trying it and I had no idea what to expect. I get a lot of the fir resin and some ambery sweetness. This has got to be one of the best fragrances I have ever smelled. I don’t know how to explain it. This was a mistake, as now I want a full bottle and the price is out of my range! The hype is real
Very beautiful. Smells almost exactly like Ariana Grandes Cloud perfume. It’s sweet and pretty.
I really liked this perfume but I wouldn't buy the full size bottle. There are other perfumes that smell similar to it but slightly better (Cloud by Ariana, Red Temptation by Zara). I went anosmic to it after 10 minutes even though people around me told me they can still smell it. I prefer perfumes that I am able to continue smelling since I wear it for myself, not for other people.
This one comes on strong.....I had heard so many high compliments for this fragrance. Honestly, on my skin, it reads like a really aggressive men's cologne. I understand the appeal for many, but it just doesn't work on my dna.
This is the most amazing scent I have ever smelled. It smells different but great on men and women. It is unique and sexy.
I really love this scent. It's complex and presents differently depending on who wears it, as most scents do. I like the bright components that stick out from the warmth and musky aromas. I read reviews that say people love it or hate it. This was true of peers I asked to rate the scent (in air). For me, it's a winner.
Obsessed with this fragrance. It’s super sweet like candy which isn’t what I usually love but I love it!
I was expecting this fragrance to knock me over but it failed to live up to the hype. It is not too strong or stinky. I’m glad I got to try it because this is an expensive fragrance to blind buy and not enjoy. Everyone has their opinion and perhaps it just didn’t work with my body chemistry.
Baccarat Rouge is a complex woody blend; the scent is long lasting.I would wear this fragrance more in the fall.
I like it
It smells good, it gives me a luxury smell, it is a bit over-rated but I would buy again
I really do not understand the fascination with this fragrance, it is disgusting. I can't even really explain the smell. I spent hours trying to get the smell off of me. A waste.
Can't make up my mind about this fragrance. I do and I don't. It's a weird smell for me. Never smelled anything like it. It seems to be more on the masculine side to me. And on me it doesn't last long . If I'm going to buy a fragrance I want it to last at least all day.
I have never hated a fragrance this much in my life. The second I sprayed it I gagged...literally dry heaving. I spent the next few hours scrubbing my arm with alcohol desperately trying to get it off. I could barely eat my dinner because the smell of this was making me nauseous. I sprayed it on paper to see if it was just body chemistry thing. Hated it even more. I dont smell even a hint of this sweetness everyone talks about. I couldnt pick out any notes. Just overwhelming, astringent, harsh, synthetics that defy explanation. My boyfriend said it smelled like an old lady, but it wasn't bad. I guess it's a personal nose thing. I woke up this morning horrified to discover that my bedroom still smells like this fragrance. Thank god this is so expensive. I couldn't handle smelling this on people all the time.
Smells so good. Worth the hype
It’s a great soothing scent. I loved it
Love! Love! Love! I’d been wanting to try this for years and now that I have I’m in love, from the first smell! Definitely may have to give in and buy a full bottle.
Beautiful scent and with two sprays it’s overpowering. If you want to buy the bottle I recommend looking into d o s s i e r version because to me it smells exactly the same. Giving it to my sister because I own the other bottle
On me, it was just way too masculine. The wood notes came through strong. Honestly, this is going to sound weird - this smells like Vegas. I’m not sure if everyone there is wearing this or it’s the aroma from the shops but that is what this makes me think of. It maybe my body chemistry with it but I’m not getting cotton candy or sweetness, on me it’s very sharp, strong and bold.
Unbelievable scent.
Beautiful fragrance
Very long lasting, even after showering! Nice fragrance.
The only reason this doesn’t get 5 stars is because it just doesn’t last as long as a perfume that costs this much should. I swear it is undetectable after about only two hours of wear. Other than that, it is an absolutely beautiful scent!
Smells great but lasts for about 22 seconds
Wasn’t what I was expecting, was just ok
This smells amazing I’m definitely purchasing the larger size
Im obsessed with this fragrance! It smells like a wealthy cotton candy owner who also owns a vanilla farm. But not in an obnoxious way. I want a full bottle. Iv already told my husband for the next holiday/ special occasion he must get this. He agrees. We both think it smells amazing. I thought I knew what expensive perfumes smelled like. But now I know!
Really thought I would love this, but I don’t. Judging by the rest of the reviews - this could just be the way it mixes with my body chemistry. It does seem to last forever though, I felt like I was choking on it all day.
Disclaimer— I am definitely biased because I smelled Cloud first and I do not like Cloud. I think it smells like plastic sugar and sweat, so to me this smells like that as well, especially on a testing strip. The “woodsy” base note ends up smelling musty to me. On the skin, unfortunately, I like it even less. It has the synthetic sugar-musty smell with an added aquatic aroma that I really don’t like. I feel like this aquatic smell is the “hospital” smell everyone talks about and I definitely agree. It’s not appealing to me. 3-stars because I can acknowledge that it’s well made and well blended. My opinion (like all perfume reviews) is biased and based on personal experience. Also, I tried it a few days ago and the room I sprayed it in still smells like Baccarat Rouge, so the lasting power is eternal. I think others may really enjoy this or it will work better with their skin chemistry! However, I don’t think it’s a safe blind buy. Definitely try it for yourself!
So glad I chose this one because of all the hype from You Tube. I want the full bottle!
Smells so good like cotton candy. Glad it wasn't super strong and this is a nice anytime scent.
Love it!
I really loved this scent and had no idea how popular it was. My initial thought was it smells amazing but wasn't unique to me like I've smelled something similar to this. I generally don't like sweet fruity smells but this was different. It lasts all day and has great projection without being overwhelming. My husband and kids love it too so this was a win for me.
Simply mesmerizing and addictive
Sweet, sparkling, woody, full bodied with an addictive quality. Good year round.
IT'S AMAZING SMELLS LIKE COTTON CANDY!!!
This scent is GORGEOUS and sweet without being cloying or overpowering. It lasts a really long time. I could still smell it on my skin the next day.
I LOVE it! I purchased another sample using my scentbucks because I loved it that much!! I just wish it was more affordable for a full size bottle. So far my favorite perfume of the ones I’ve received (Beats my Delina sample hands down in my opinion). I also own a Cloud perfume sample and while It is similar to BR, you can definitely tell them apart. Cloud is much sweeter, more juvenile, and does not project as well. You can tell that BR is a finer perfume and if I had the money, I would purchase it before I would purchase a full size bottle of Cloud. Not enough similarities for me to purchase Cloud as a dupe. I will certainly be looking for a dupe though or if need be just continue buying samples from scentbox
Love it light wish I could afford a bigger bottle
Wasn’t love at first sniff, but it took just under 1 week for my nose to accept the challenge and fall in love with it. I’m on the hunt for the Extrait version of this perfume at this moment!
I love this scent…now I completely understand what everyone was raving about.
I see there is mixed reviews on this unisex scent but for me I quite enjoyed this. It was almost addictive. I constantly kept sniffing my wrist where I sprayed. It is a light sweet burnt sugary smell. I don't see this being a scent for a male because it's not floral or woodsy its just sweet. I can see this being used in all seasons but I would lean more towards the Fall becauses it is a warm scent. It is a light fragrance but powerful I think 2 sprays maybe 3 is perfect anymore it becomes annoyingly sweet. I would recommend purchasing this from scentbox because of the price and plus if you don't like it you can exchange it instead of losing a couple hundred bucks. I have never smelled the original or Cloud (people say this is similar) so my opinion is only based on the scent from scentbox. I bought it to see the hype of the raving reviews and I can say I do like it but it's not really what I was expecting. But then again I don't really know what I was expecting from such a expensive fragrance.
My husband said it’s what a beautiful woman should smell like.
Baccarat is not that girl. The medicinal, iodine smell is too much for me, and this is the second let down from MFK's line!
Beautiful scent! One of my favorites
Love it smells great!! Very sweet scent!!
I've been through many fragrances in my life from vintage classics, niche, and popular every scents like many found here. Never in my life was I so immediately repulsed by a fragrance. My husband said "what's that metallic smell". It remined me of the vet, dentist, and ER rolled into one, with a strong dose of iodine. I tried scrubbing it off, but it hung on for hours. As usual, however, it may work on you. BTW, Cloud aroused the same reaction, so I may be just these notes.
I dont understand why this is reviewed so highly. It smells really bad for men and women. I do not recommend this. Choose something else.
Smells amazing! But smells just like Burberry Her which is half the price for the double the amount of perfume. So unless you just want to be fancy you might as well go with Burberry
I love it!!!!!
Amazing, the best genderless parfum on the market
Didn’t really like it for woman.. Gave it away to a male friend of mines
??????????
Not a very strong smell or lasts long for the price
Delicious. The Initial spray was really nice.. but that dry down ?????????? just amazing
So sexy! Sweet and musky and rich … subtle but somehow manages to project like crazy. Smells like warm skin after a sugar-scented bath. I don’t smell like I’m wearing perfume. I just smell good… all day long. Even my friends who don’t like perfume love this.
This scent is very nice, feminine and sweet on my skin but it doesn’t last long. The scent fades away within two hours.
Unique…. Smells great… can wear for every occasion… and the quality is apparent
I love this scent. I feel like it's similar to another scent but cant put my finger on it. Its beautiful, lasts forever, & is perfect. Im so glad i got this
I absolutely love this fragrance. It’s long lasting. Has a sweet tinge to it. Def not a everyday fragrance but I’m sure you will get plenty of compliments when you wear it.
Smells beautiful...for literally five seconds. This has no drydown for me. I had my mom try it too- nothing. I literally cannot smell this perfume after 10-15 seconds.
The only problem is it doesn’t last that long but it smells so good I’ll still buy the full size bottle.
Unfortunately I seem to be anosmic to this. I can barely smell anything at all after just a few minutes.
Addictive fragrance. Smells amazing on me and even better on my wife. Truly an amazing “unisex” fragrance.
Awesome!!!
It’s good! It’s different. It’s fresh. On me it’s sweet. On him it’s sultry. Great job MFK.
Amazing sweet scent, but masculine enough for a man!
Great scent!! I think this is great for an evening out not an everyday scent!!
Sweet, not too strong. It doesn’t last long. I liked it
I don't see the hype about it. I don't like it all. It smells just like Cloud and I hate Cloud. So if you have Cloud just stick with that. It's only a subtle difference at a fraction of the price.
My husband loves this on me. I’m nose blind to it. Every once in a while I get a whiff of something sweet for a moment and then nothing. My husband said that it smells very classy and expensive. He didn’t know what it was, when I told him how much a bottle of it costs, he said that it definitely smells like it. I’m disappointed that I can’t smell it. My husband said it’s a very strong fragrance, so I do a maximum of 3 sprays. I probably wouldn’t invest in a bottle of this because I can’t smell it but my husband likes it so I will let him decide if he likes it enough to purchase a full size bottle
Smells good.
It okay. I don’t understand why this one has so many rave reviews. It’s sweet and woodsy. It is long lasting. I don’t hate it but I don’t love it. I don’t think it’s unique either. I’m giving it to my mother in law, because it seems like a fragrance she would enjoy.
I don’t get the hype. It’s a nice smell, however I have a bond perfume that smells really similar. It’s nice, I would layer it with something else though to give it an oomph.
Everyone talks about this perfume like it’s liquid gold. People going on and on about how great it smells. The hype was high with this one so I was determined to get my hands on it but the price stopped that. I heard Cloud was a dupe but I ended up hating how that perfume smelled. It had a weird smell that was sweet and off putting at the same time. So I told myself that B540 would smell better and it did but I still don’t like it. Maybe my nose is broken because I just don’t understand the hype.
Sweet and a bit spicy on application but it mellows out.
Lovely fragrance. So far I'm happy with my subscription!
I like this scent but I think it's WAY overrated. I actually prefer my Cloud perfume to this. They smell very similar but cloud is slightly sweeter.
I would give it a 5 star however, I like my perfume to be a bit louder. I still LOVE it but prefer BR540 extrait to the regular. Had I bought the original, I might feel different. I purchased the extrait and adore it. I get so many compliments when I wear it.
It does smell very pretty, I was so looking forward to this thinking it was a strong head-turner like so many others have said. However, to me the fragrance is so so light, it is barely there. Which is quite unfortunate for something so expensive. I have to put my nose right up on my wrist to smell, but when I do it is a lovely bright woody and floral. I think I would have to spray myself 8 times to make it last, but it might work better with someone else!!
Smells sooooooo good, my man was all over me & even wanted it for hisself, fragrance definitely long lasting if I had a bigger size I would spray more on me but had to be cautious cause it’s only a little
Received lots of compliments ??
It lasts forever and fills the room...but it can be a bit too sweet. Great for special occasions, but not an everyday scent.
I didn’t love it as much as I thought I would. Too sweet.
Smells really good but a bit too feminine for my taste, but my wife loves it for herself.
Chose this because it kept popping in all fragrance related discussions, ratings etc. It is definitely a perfume worth having, even if I do not like to use what everyone else uses. But this smells clean, soft, sophisticated. It's not as sweet, at times has a medicine-like hint but that doesn't bother me. It doesn't last too long on my skin but seems to last longer on clothes. Received compliments and makes me feel great when i wear it. It gives me a sense of comfort.
beautiful cologne. soft and smells like candy.
Beyond amazing. Head turner and all. So glad i found it
I love this scent!
Unfortunately I am completely nose blind to this fragrance. I do smell an initial sweetness and then a chemical smell followed by a woody smell but it soon disappears. I'm very disappointed as I really wanted to enjoy this scent.
This perfume is what I imagine an ancient Persian empress or queen would smell like. If you want to carry the fragrance of royalty, wear this. It is elegant and intoxicating---woody, slightly sweet, and deeply mysterious, and yet almost familiar. This fragrance is gold in liquid form, it is meant to be worn by someone aware of its strength and character. It is lovely, captivating but not overwhelming. There is no singular note that overpowers the other, but the perfume instead encompasses a complex scent made up of notes that merge into a divinely fragrant liquid. Truly a royal perfume.
On me this smells just like Cloud, by Ariana Grande. Soft and clean. It's a pleasant scent that lasts.
Gorgeous! Perfume
This is an amazing fragrance! But there are so many other perfumes that smell similar to it for a cheaper price. If you want to splurge on this one, I do find it to be more long lasting than the dupes.
Does not sit well with my body chemistry. It’s long last and I can see why people like it, but it doesn’t work for me.
This may be the best fragrance I’ve ever owned. Unique. Long lasting. Literally smells like opulence.
The baccarat of fragrance as they might say! It certainly smell lovely, almost familiar but then mysterious as well. It’s woody, floral, slightly sweet but rich and delicate at the same time. It’s a dynamic scent, it will work with your body chemistry accordingly. It’s the perfume that I would imagine a Persian empress or queen to wear. It’s the perfume of royalty, of a beautiful, powerful and cunning woman.
Love how long it lasts!
When I tell you I was SO excited to get my hands on this due to all the hype surrounding it. Boy was I expecting something…better. It’s not that it’s awful but on my skin it turns into a weird seaweed and saltwater smell. I have Burberry Her and it is a near identical dupe but it’s slightly sweeter and half the price. Plus it mixes with my chemistry so much better. I’ll stick with her…but glad I had the chance to try BR540 through scentbox. Waaaay easier on the wallet!
Unique smell. Received compliments all day. Smells expensive
To say this is a beautiful smell is an understatement. This is a very classy, woody, ambery fragrance that lasts a night. Gets you compliments all the time. Please don’t hesitate to buy. Love love love this fragrance. Please offer a big size to buy.
Beautiful fragrance, soft and lovely. Very classy.
Goes on really strong and kinda bad smelling but once dry is extremely pleasant. It may be different for everyone but with my body chemistry the cedar came out a lot to an almost peppery scent still very nice to me. It is quite masculine id say kinda smells like a Abercrombie if it was high end.
Smells amazing! Soft and powdery. Lasts long!
Long lasting, woody floral scent, glad I have it in my collection now. Stands out, not your usual floral sweet scent.
Very beautiful scent!
