A Crystal-Cut Masterpiece: Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540
Baccarat Rouge 540 was inspired by the collaboration between Maison Francis Kurkdjian and the legendary crystal maker Baccarat, created to honor the crystal house’s 250th anniversary. This iconic fragrance mirrors the elegance and craftsmanship of Baccarat's exquisite crystal, especially the brand’s signature red crystal, made by fusing clear crystal with 24-carat gold powder and heating it to 540 degrees Celsius—hence the name "540." The result is a scent that radiates the same brilliance and refinement, combining airy jasmine, luminous saffron, and mineral ambergris to evoke the sleek, glass-like clarity and warmth of Baccarat crystal.

As it settles, ambergris emerges, bringing a mineral and slightly salty undertone that feels like a breeze over smooth, polished crystal. Finally, the fragrance deepens into woody cedar, grounding the scent with a freshly-cut, earthy warmth. Each stage reflects an intricate dance of light and depth, from luminous radiance to the quiet, intimate embrace of amber and wood.
