What do reviewers say about Baccarat Rouge 540 and II?
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
This is sweet enough to flirt, dry enough to mean it. The powder in the heart isn't grandma's thing, it's the warmth of skin, of someone who doesn't need the room to know they're there.II
