    It wasn’t a bad perfume; it’s a very different scent. It’s a fragrance you can come to understand and appreciate, even if it was difficult. It wasn’t so shocking that I couldn’t wear it. It’s still adapting to my skin; I noticed how it reminded me of the milk and vanilla coffee my grandmother used to give me as a kid. It becomes very caramelized, or rather like a resinous, burnt, or smoked caramel, like sugar caramelized for dessert. It doesn’t remind me of a dentist’s office, but of a bakery or pastry shop. You have to know how to understand it and not judge it without giving it a chance.

  • charlotinable

    After wearing it on my skin, I conclude it’s not for me. It smells like burnt and caramelized sugar, ready for a flan mold. It has a fine plastic and burnt sugar aftertaste. There’s a very artificial note that didn’t bother me in other scents, but here it does. It’s not a bad perfume, but I’m not up for understanding something so strange that smells like someone dumped vanilla coffee candies or a Starbucks cappuccino latte on me. I retract my praise; it’s not the big deal, and once worn, it’s just not for me. I love vanilla notes, and while it’s not declared, the amber reminded me of rancid vanilla. To be honest, I ended up hating it.

  • It smells exactly like opening a package of sterilized gauze. I know what I’m talking about; I’ve heard that before.

  • It smells very sweet but not cloying; it’s delicate. Its projection is soft and not annoying. It smells great; you can tell it’s well-made and worth the price, but for that reason, I feel there are much cheaper fragrances in the same style.

  • Thanks to Francis Kurkdjian for this magic. It’s animalic, luminous, and solid. I don’t know what a panther feels like being a panther, but I feel close to that sensation. The world bends to your feet because it radiates warmth, without being cloying or intrusive. It’s not for everyone, but it wasn’t designed to be. And it’s perfect.

  • Sofigm594

    I don’t smell like a dentist at first, but I get why people say that. It heads in that direction. It feels like a very generic fragrance, ideal for cold days.

  • Mitafragance

    It’s rare to catch it, but it has its glory days. Usually, it goes unnoticed because it’s so light, but on sunny days, it shines and feels sweeter. A white shirt with this scent in the warm breeze is pure bliss.

  • 17_serpiente

    I love it, bought it for my girlfriend, but she didn’t like it, so I kept it. Scents have no gender, even though this one is more common on women. It’s a classic; clones can’t match it, and the quality shows. It doesn’t smell like cotton candy, but I get why people say that. Perfect for temperate or cold climates, day and night. Longevity is good, but it’s pricey. Clones are more affordable and smell the same. If you can afford it, grab it at an outlet; boutique prices aren’t worth it anymore. The extrait is better than the eau de toilette.

  • Markus Ross

    One of my first fragrances when I stepped into the world of perfume. I always used what people gifted me, and although I’m not a huge fan of unisex scents, this aroma is detectable in seconds, and you know the wearer is a lover of luxury. The airy facets of jasmine and the shine of saffron settle on the skin like an amber and woody floral whisper. In short, I love it.

  • Lorenapicazo

    From hate to love with this perfume. I tried it and was convinced I’d never wear it, but smelling it again so captivated me that it became addictive. I’m surprised so many others felt the same. I have it for autumn and winter now. It’s a luxury in perfume. It smells metallic, slightly burnt, sweet, the resin is very noticeable, with an intense woody base—luxury and exclusivity. Maybe because it’s so different, it’s so exclusive. I feel powerful and secure. It’s one of a kind.

  • My go-to perfume. I got it as a gift three years ago and I’ve gone through three bottles. At first, it smelled like a dentist’s office—very fresh—but once it settled on my skin, wow, mother of pearl! I can’t quite describe it; it was sweet but not childish, more mature. It smells incredibly luxurious; I can picture it on a wealthy woman. It evolves, getting warmer and more gourmand with time. It lasts all day, if not two, and its trail is massive; people have heard me from far away. I’ve gotten tons of compliments, mostly from women. I don’t think men would like it; my partner has never complimented me on it, though I don’t feel it’s unisex—it smells totally feminine. The only downside is that after about two hours, I can’t smell it on myself anymore, like my nose gets tired, but everyone else can.

  • Pure love-hate. A persuasive twist from repulsion to addiction: dentist vibes and ambroxan. You hate the pain but love the anesthesia; give me more of that analgesic shit to forget. It drags you from clinical, antiseptic scents toward that ambroxan (not listed here but on Kurkdjian’s website). It’s constantly shifting between sweet and bitter, evasively fighting smoky notes. Finally, something different. Best for cool weather. When it dries down and up close, it reveals a blend reminiscent of old makeup powder; it’s not iris but close, warmer and dirtier. I like these less-traveled, polarizing aromas; it’s a sign of complexity, risk, and personality. It’s a statement of principles: you don’t have to please everyone, and that’s fine. Would I pay its price? Absolutely not.

  • Every so often, magic happens in perfumery, and Francis Kurkdjian takes the crown with this one, alongside the extrait and Oud Satin Mood. I still remember the first time I smelled Baccarat Rouge; it hit me like an olfactory version of Stendhal Syndrome when seeing Michelangelo’s David. What really gets me going are those cheap knock-offs.

  • This perfume is trendy, there are thousands of inspirations. Cloud is less sharp, more marshmallow and delicious. The 540 is luxurious, sharp, like burnt cotton candy, woody and resinous. The Zara one is identical. I also tried Magma Red, which is more leather and perhaps here the cotton candy is more cherry, but always in the background. Excellent. I’d love to have a small version to feel like I’m in a casino: dark wood, leather seats, expensive cigars, pure luxury.

    They gave it to me as a 5ml sample and at first I didn’t like it, feeling I’d already smelled it elsewhere, so I left it for a year. Until my wife ran out of her perfume and I told her it was unisex. At first she wasn’t convinced, but I left it at her work at 8am and at 5:30pm when I entered the car, it smelled amazing! I told her it suited her perfectly. She said she couldn’t smell anything, but I felt constant bursts. She only used 4 sprays and the next day, when I passed by her again, it still smelled strong. Now I love following her trail; it smells incredible on her, though I want it for myself. It’s expensive, but the longevity and quality are a gem.

  • It smells good, but it’s basically Cloud. The difference is Cloud is cheaper and Baccarat has a synthetic leather scent that I absolutely hate.

  • I bought it for the hype and upon trying it, I thought: ‘This is Ariana’s Cloud mixed with Burberry Her!’. It has all that DNA, though Baccarat is more woody and amber. In the end, I discovered those two are the shameless clones of this. I gifted it to my wife because it’s super feminine and sweet, like fairground cotton candy.

  • What a madness with this saffron, worked to the max and giving it a leather note that’s exactly the bare minimum you’d ask for. When it dries, I’m not lying, it smells like a dentist’s office, but I love those scents, so I’ll keep refilling it without a doubt.

  • I love it, but it’s only for winter. It gives me a terrible headache every time I smell it in summer until I get sick of it, and that’s delicious. I love Baccarat, but it’s intolerable in the heat.

  • It’s a saffron bomb that lasts forever and turns sugary when dry. Meh. I detect white flowers in the base, woods, and something metallic. The opening is good, but when it dries, there’s something that doesn’t convince me. There are things I like and things I don’t. I understand why people like it; it’s just not my style. It performs and projects well, works in the cold, and I see it as more unisex. Charming to know, but not made for me.

  • Casablanca77

    Baccarat doesn’t work for many people, but it does for me. I know it can be repulsive to some, but I notice something unique: it’s like an operating room with iodine where a wonderful cedar grows, and a doctor eating strawberry candies walks in. It’s weird but incredible, good taste. On my skin, it’s never heavy but noticeable, giving bursts of happiness. Many have hallucinated and don’t want the fakes because of the price. I can already expect another bottle, though I’ll be happy with Zara’s Red Temptation too. The mystery of Baccarat will continue, and I enjoy it.

  • Andrecilla09

    Perfect for me. I know it’s trendy because of the clones, and many say it smells like a hospital, but it’s crystal clear, fresh, sweet without being cloying, with elegant woods and great performance. What more could you ask for?

  • AliceDima

    It’s the DNA they’ve tried to clone the most and failed at. Hundreds want to be it, but they aren’t. I get why some think it’s surgical, but for me, it’s art. Nothing casts a shadow on its longevity or projection; it’s a bomb. I broke a sample, and the broom still smells like it a year and a half later. It’s expensive, but worth it if you like the original. Copies claiming to be better just don’t like the original; Zara, Lataffa, or Afan are not this.

  • I fell in love smelling Axe Cherry Spritz deodorant at the supermarket and knew it was this perfume in spray form. I bought it and it’s a delight, super versatile, and almost no one can hate it.

  • lacasitadepan

    Started with a 3ml sample, then the 70ml bottle, and now my second 200ml because it’s unbeatable. With body oil, it’s a beast. Don’t believe the people selling fakes; I tried them all, and none come close. I met it in 2021 and will never leave it.

  • It smells luxurious; it’s an archetype, something psychological. That slightly burnt wood sweetness gives it that vibe. Yeah, it does smell like a dentist’s office as they say. What’s funny is the price and how clones have made it so common that even Mercadona released an air freshener that imitates it too well.

  • It smells delicious!!! At first, I was thrown off because I sensed a note that reminded me of the dentist’s anesthesia, hahaha, but as I used it, I understood it and that feeling disappeared; it’s just very rich. I would buy it over and over again; I don’t care if everyone uses it or if there are a thousand dupes, I love it. If you’re the type who prefers exclusivity, stay away, but if you’re like me and don’t mind that half the world uses the same fragrance, I highly recommend trying and owning it; it’s beautiful 💜 I would wear it in autumn, winter, spring, and maybe on cool summer evenings.

  • My sister is grossed out by it, scrunches her nose, and asks me to stop using it every time. She says it smells like plastic.

  • There’s nothing to argue with how incredible this perfume is. It has a quality, sillage, and identity that changed the rules of the game. The downside is that it was copied so much that it ended up wearing thin and lost a bit of its exclusivity, but the original quality can’t be matched; the copies feel flat next to the original. It’s a shame it doesn’t feel as unique as it did at first. It remains, without a doubt, the one that has given me the most compliments, especially when nobody knew it. I always keep it in my collection even if I don’t use it as much. ✨ Iconic, unforgettable… though a victim of its own success.

  • juancarobles

    It’s undoubtedly a complex fragrance, one of those love-hate classics, just what happens with your dentist… and yes, it has a hidden scent of something we dentists use: formocresol, a hospital disinfectant formaldehyde. Does it smell like money? Probably a little! Hahaha.

  • NormaCuevas

    It hasn’t worn me out, and never will. Dupes are welcome to me, since the DNA of this beautiful, unique creation is worthy of being replicated and played with. A forever favorite.

  • I tried it on a 2ml decant and see it as unisex, though it leans slightly feminine. I wouldn’t buy it for myself: it’s not bad, just not convincing enough. It smells good and is easy to wear, but I don’t feel the connection to justify the price, especially given its performance on my skin. Personally, I prefer how it smells on female skin versus mine. On me, it feels sweet, clean, and modern—like cotton candy or burnt sugar, without being cloying or heavy. It stays subtle with a woody base that accompanies without overpowering. I also notice that dental office nuance many describe, a clean, almost clinical touch that’s part of its essence. As for longevity, it’s been discreet on my skin: about 4-5 hours with a pleasant but short trail. While it’s generally said to have great projection and a heavy sillage, on my skin it’s much more contained, so I personally don’t think it justifies the price. I acknowledge its quality, its olfactory signature, and why it’s famous, but it just doesn’t fit me. It’s one of those scents I enjoy more smelling on others than wearing myself. Rating: 6.5/10.
