Harga Parfum Baccarat – I was familiar with this incredible manufacturer from an early age, because I grew up seeing and hearing the word “Baccarat” at home. My mother would throw fancy parties from time to time, and in every meeting, the beautiful, carefully carved Baccarat crystal glasses were a staple in my house, along with other beautiful pieces of decor also made by the same brand.
Fast forward to 2015, Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum was launched to celebrate the world famous crystal manufacturer’s 250th birthday; what excitement! Initially, it was to be a limited edition of only 250 bottles, but due to the success and the positive reaction of the world, perfumer Francis Kurkdjian decided to keep it as part of his permanent collection. Baccarat Rouge 540 quickly became the most sought after and cloned fragrance ever created.

When I heard the name “Baccarat” I felt that I had to get my hands up my nose because it was a brand I grew up with and felt like “home”. Furthermore, when I learned that this fragrance has saffron in the composition, which is one of my absolute favorite notes in perfumery, I felt that this fragrance was screaming my name, period; I have to try it; and so I got it at Neiman Marcus right now. I tried not once but several times, and you know what? I didn’t like it, actually it was very incredible!! At one point I wasn’t sure if it was the smell or the pushy salesman trying to convince me to buy it, but it was definitely unpleasant.

Over time, BR 540 EDP grew on me and I ended up loving this beautiful perfume, but what I find really fascinating is the bottle and all the details that are included.
The brand’s signature color, often seen in their chandeliers, is a deep, bright red. To get this vivid red color, fused (melted) clear crystal is mixed with pure gold, a mixture that master craftsmen use to create the fantastic creations for which Baccarat is known. Once the creations are formed, these pieces are heated to 540 degrees Celsius and this is where the magic happens, and the clear crystal turns red. If you turn the bottle and look at it from the back, you can see a red chandelier on the back of the label as a symbolic representation of the famous brand.
After the great success of Baccarat Rouge 540 in the Eau de Parfum formulation, the house (Maison Francis Kurkdjian) launched BR 540 extrait de parfum 2017 (that’s my favorite), with the same nose behind: the master perfumer Francis Kurkdjian.
BR 540 (both EDP and extract) are incredible blends of synthetic notes, a true example of modern perfumery that proves that contrary to what many people think, synthetic is not always a bad thing, especially in the perfume industry.

The notes present in this composition are saffron (actually a synthetic form of saffron, because in its natural form this beloved herb has an allergic connection), cashmere, ambroxan, red cedar (which gives the scent with what many people recognize it) as a “pencil pencil”. Smoke, much creamier and less dry than other types of cedar wood used in perfumery), and jasmine.
This masterpiece smells like nothing ever made, in fact it’s hard to describe what it smells like, and I think that’s part of what made this fragrance so disturbing when it first appeared in 2015. There are many perfumes on the market with the same notes and similarities, but Mr. Francis Kurkdjian has mastered the art of blending just a few synthetic notes to perfection, and despite all the Baccarat rouge 540 dupes out there, it is still unique and the only one that is 10/10.
The smell of BR540 has been described as “burnt sugar”, well… not for me. I love cooking and baking and I am very familiar with the smell of burnt sugar, which is a bit bitter. In this case, however, there is no bitterness at all, if there is any, it has a very subtle salty scent that lingers in the background, perfectly balancing the otherwise excessive sweetness. Every time I eat berries at home, I sprinkle them with brown sugar and the moment I bite into a berry, Baccarat Rouge comes to mind.
If you ask me what it smells like, I’d say it smells like candied berries with crushed brown sugar on top (not the “sandy” and moist brown sugar; I’m talking about the dry, golden, crystallized).

The extract version is a little different, but not dramatically different. In fact, someone who is not into perfumes and smells them for the first time will probably not be able to distinguish them. However, Baccarat Rouge 540 Extract a different opening, which is useful and not as sharp as the opening of its EDP sister. This strong bitter almond accord is, in my opinion, one of the main distinguishing factors of the original version.
It’s a fairly linear fragrance that transitions slowly without much change until it settles into the drydown, where you get a less nutty but more woody, slightly dirty and denser scent that lasts at least six to eight takes Lasts hours on my skin. I would say that the extract is a more mature scent compared to the EDP and yes, this is one of my top compliments.
Baccarat Rouge 540 extrait screams “I’m expensive”. It’s luxurious and over the top, but it’s not overwhelming, intrusive or intimidating.
This may come as a surprise to many as it is an extract de perfume, but this perfume is not what we in the perfume community call a “beast mode” scent with incredible projection and mind-blowing sillage, quite the contrary, it is a scent that is close to the skin. People think that when perfumes are in their purest form, that is extract (or perfume), they are stronger, they project more, and the trail is impressive, and I am here to tell you that this is not 100% true . Due to the high oil concentration in extract de perfumes, this form of formulation tends to last longer, but usually extracts are skin scents with moderate projection and no noticeable sillage.

Conversely, lighter formulations such as eau de toilettes, because they have higher amounts of alcohol and a lower percentage of oil concentration, will leave a nice trail when you walk, projecting from a longer distance, even if they don’t last as long. as a perfume extract.
Because oil concentrations vary from house to house, not all perfume formulations will behave the same, even if they belong to the same category. For example, Tom Ford’s private blend that offers a great selection of eau de parfums has a higher oil concentration than the standard eau de parfums we see on the market, so any perfume from this line works better than other eau de parfums the perfumes with a low oil concentration.
It seems to have a certain molecular structure, as many people experience a “hide & seek” game with BR540 EDP. What I mean by this is that many people can’t smell it on themselves after a while, but the people around them. Unfortunately this was not my case. It seems my skin “eats” this scent and it disappears after an hour or so and no one around me seems to even notice, but this is not the case with the extract version which I love and will always keep in my collection.
Baccarat Rouge 540 Extract is a compliment getter and fun fact, most of the comments and compliments I get when I wear this fragrance come from men. If you want to check out my blog post about my most complimented perfumes, click here.

This is definitely a night type fragrance, something I wear for formal events, and even when I want to feel like a “femme fatale” and red carpet ready.
Baccarat Rouge 540 is absolutely beautiful in both formulations, especially the extract. If you asked me a while back if it was worth the hype, I would have said yes, because it was a very disturbing fragrance that smelled like nothing else on the market, although it was not love for me. Today, there are so many similar scents (even dupes/clones) of BR540, making the original perfume lack the exclusivity it once had. That being said, there is nothing like the original, and personally I don’t like dupes and I encourage people not to buy them.
Worth it or not, the hype is there and if you have a chance, try it. This is not a safe blind buy, so make sure you test it first. It is very alluring, fascinating and luxurious, and for many people one of their most complimented perfumes of all time. I can predict that it will become a modern classic and a staple in many collectors collections, including mine.
