    What do reviewers say about Baccarat Rouge 540 and 05 Candle Lit Evening?

    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 honey-rose combo is an open door. Approachable. Then the bourbon walks in and closes it behind itself. That's not a warning, that's the whole point. Warmth with a backbone.05 Candle Lit Evening
