What do reviewers say about Baccarat Rouge 540 and mark Sophistique?
This fragrance generates polarized reactions. The saffron note is polarizing on its own, but the ambergris and ambroxan combination creates a warm, almost hyperreal quality that some find synthetic.Baccarat Rouge 540
The lotus-and-rice combo either intrigues you or leaves you cold. No middle ground. If it clicks, though, Sophistique becomes the one you reach for when nothing else feels quite right.mark Sophistique
