About this deal

His Mother died of cancer at a relatively young age - not long after the time I used to go round almost every day. My boyfriend and his teenage daughter both have finicky noses and after I sprayed myself once and walked into the living room they both said, “Mmm! i know this fragrance has an army of admirers, im not trying to be disrespectful but, this is really awful. This is the typical smell that comes out when you sharpen a pencil: woody, dry, slightly spicy and creamy. MFK describes Rouge 540 not in terms of top, heart and base notes, but rather as the interplay between three unique accords, each lending a distinct and visceral characteristic.

I got mine 3 years ago as I was looking for a special wedding perfume and at that time it was already very hyped. On me, it smells like the dentist's office—strawberry bubble gum tooth polish, latex gloves, cleaning supplies, the dentist asking how you're doing with their hands in your mouth while you make indistinguishable sounds. I always loved the scent of their house - like sweet berries mixed with chamomile, soft leather jackets and something antiseptic coming from the beautician's annex. I regret spending the money for this trash and can think of a hundred different fragrances niche and or designer that I would gladly have dropped the coin on instead.

As time went on, the fragrance never switched back to being the beautiful masterpiece that it was when I first encountered it. BR540, however, is also on that list but I'm fascinated by the fragrance itself and by how people respond to it.

It is so popular that now it became a generic type of perfume with lots of dupes and i smell it everywhere. Again, I think it is by design that the weirdest iteration is the most expensive and most exclusive. ALCOHOL; PARFUM (FRAGRANCE); AQUA (WATER); DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL; ETHYLHEXYL METHOXYCINNAMATE; ETHYLHEXYL SALICYLATE; BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE; BHT; LIMONENE; BENZYL BENZOATE; LINALOOL; CI 19140 (YELLOW 5); CI 14700 (RED 4).In essence, there's a prominent metallic something to my nose so I totally get the dental/medical/latex gloves reviews. Baccarat Rouge 540 Maison Francis Kurkdjian extrait de parfum embodies the profusion and fusion of elements that can only be tamed by the art of the perfumer and the wisdom gained with time.

A sensual, audacious and contemporary scent, Aventus is inspired by the dramatic life of a historic emperor who waged war, peace and romance with equal magnitude. In its natural state, it comes into the composition of the scent of tea and jasmine, even if it is quite different, more airy, more luminous. But the few who could,smelled it in my workplace and were asking where is this amazing smell coming from.

However, this is more nuanced and refined, not as creamily sweet, and doesn't make me wrinkle my nose in the same way. However, If any irritation or inflammation occurs wash with warm soapy water and seek medical advice. The dupes are really good, so in my opinion there is no point spending that much on the original BR540.
