Baccarat Rouge 540 evokes the density and transparency of crystal around its three inherent breaths: the mineral breath, the breath of fire, and the breath of know-how, as if human hands were conversing with the magic of nature. Like a true alchemy of the senses, its graphic, highly condensed olfactory signature delivers floral, ambery, and woody notes inspired by crystal’s fusion process. Airy jasmine facets and intensely radiant saffron carry the mineral notes of ambergris and the woody, lightly spiced tones of red cedar.
Born of the perfumer’s mastery and time-tested wisdom, Baccarat Rouge 540 extrait de parfum is, for Francis Kurkdjian, a culmination. The power and radiance of the three breaths that compose the eau de parfum are intensified without betraying the original inspiration. The expert hands that pick Jasmine Grandiflorum from Egypt to transform it into an absolute demonstrate the element of expertise. The breath of fire is enhanced by the powdery, gourmand facets of the bitter almond from Morocco, extracted as an essential oil with an ancestral process. Lastly, the breath of mineral built around the ambergris notes softens on contact with a woody, musky accord.
With a magnified intensity that awakes the senses, Baccarat Rouge 540 extrait de parfum is also synonymous with preciousness. Its bottle is adorned with a dazzling red color with golden details reminiscent of crystal’s fusion process.
