What do reviewers say about Baccarat Rouge 540 and Candy Eau de Parfum?
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
Some will call it synthetic. Others will call it the best decision they made all year. The cotton candy note doesn't whisper, it sticks around like a secret you can't quite keep.Candy Eau de Parfum
