Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait Limited Edition 2021

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait Limited Edition 2021 is the concentrated, amplified version of one of modern perfumery's most iconic creations. This unisex Extrait takes everything that made the original famous and turns up the volume, creating a scent that is bolder, longer-lasting, and even more mesmerizing.

If the original is a candle, this is a bonfire. The opening features saffron and bitter almond, a combination that immediately signals luxury.

Saffron brings its warm, honeyed, slightly metallic richness that has been prized in perfumery for centuries. Bitter almond adds a distinctive nutty, marzipan-like quality with a slightly sharp edge that cuts through the sweetness beautifully.

The heart of Egyptian jasmine and Virginian cedar provides the bridge between the spiced opening and the deep base. Egyptian jasmine contributes a rich, indolic floral sweetness that is heavier and more intoxicating than common jasmine varieties.

Virginian cedar adds a smooth, pencil-like woodiness that gives the composition structure and elegance. The base is where this Extrait truly lives.

Ambergris, cashmeran, ambroxan, musk, and woody notes create a foundation that seems to last forever on the skin. Ambergris and ambroxan together produce that famous mineral, almost crystal-like quality that makes Baccarat Rouge instantly recognizable.

Cashmeran adds velvety warmth, and musk provides intimate softness. This is a fragrance for cooler months, perfect for evening events, special occasions, and moments when you want to leave an unforgettable impression.

The Extrait concentration means a little goes a long way. It projects strongly for hours and leaves a gorgeous trail that people will follow and remember.
