Baccarat Rouge 540, a genius coalition
By Jo Phillips
When thinking about luxurious crystal vases, glasses, perfume bottles and so on, the first word that should burst into mind is Baccarat.
Indeed, founded in 1764 in the town of Baccarat- where it draws its name from-the crystal house instantly became the royalty’s favourite and quickly spread its notoriety worldwide. Specialised in drinkware, mirrors and chandeliers, the house of Baccarat’s significant creations were and still are in perfume bottles.
Therefore, Maison Francis Kurkdjian- one of the world’s finest perfume houses- decided to create Baccarat Rouge 540, an elaborated and luxurious perfume which celebrates the 250th anniversary of the emblematic crystal manufacturer.
Available now fully from many stores, as originally this was a limited edition this Eau de Parfum is a real olfactory experience. The top notes of jasmine and saffron delicately blended to woody amber notes, the whole established on fresh cedar notes create an exquisite and luxurious unisex fragrance.
The exclusive liquid lies in a very recherché bottle: pure Baccarat crystal and 24 carat gold powder were heated at 540 degrees, giving to the crystal this vibrant scarlet impression.
If you are looking for pure luxury in its finest form, here it is: Baccarat Rouge 540 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian.
