The fragrance opens with bright saffron and jasmine, imparting a refined and radiant freshness. Next, amber and resinous notes blend together to form a warm and sensual heart. In the base, cedarwood and musky accents ensure a long-lasting, addictive fragrance experience. This perfume feels like a subtle blend of warmth and crystalline clarity, as if it melts into the skin and continues to evolve throughout the day.
Does Baccarat Rouge 540 contain ambergris?
Although Baccarat Rouge 540 has a warm and mineral undertone, it does not contain natural ambergris.
