What does Baccarat Rouge 540 (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The scent is built on saffron, Virginia cedar, Hedione and Ambroxan. Sweet, gourmand tones meet a floral base, while the spicy and woody side is softened by a creamy feel. It has a clearly synthetic, airy quality without feeling heavy.

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and night-out wear stand out. It reads slightly more feminine, yet sits comfortably on men and women alike. Asabi № 2 Intense and Zara Red Temptation Men have a close profile.
