And one huge trend started on Tiktok was the worldwide obsession with Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s ‘Baccarat Rouge 540. A partnership between Baccarat, the crystal making company, and the renowned perfume house Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Baccarat Rouge 540 is regarded as one of the most versatile and flattering scents for both men and women.

What Exactly Does it Smell Like? 

Now you may be wondering, how enticing must this fragrance be that it is captivating so many individuals far and wide. Well, the perfume contains notes of citrusy orange and hedione coupled with undertones of lavender, saffron, and sage, and balanced out by woodier hints of oak and ambergris, all of which contribute to one of the most unique and beguiling scents. Due to the high and strong concentrations of the various notes, the perfume is known to be long-lasting and perfect for date nights

One of the most precious components of the perfume is the ambergris, a bizarre and rare substance created by the intestines of sperm whales when they accidentally consume an undigestable item. This substance is so highly sought after and rare that a lump of it weighing slightly over 1kg can sell for more than USD 70,000. This is one of the reasons why the exquisite MFK Baccarat Rouge 540 has such an insurmountable price tag. 

All in all, this perfume does indeed live up to its fame. To use, simply spray a small amount onto your pulse points such as your neck or your wrists, and enjoy the alluring scent that lasts for hours. If you prefer a stronger and less subtle scent, then spray some into the air and walk through.
