What do reviewers say about Baccarat Rouge 540 and De Young Red?
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
Raspberry keeps the rose honest. The pepper doesn't back down but it never attacks either, it's the hello that opens the door. Woods and musk underneath mean this isn't just fruit salad.De Young Red
