Airy and sweet at once, Baccarat Rouge 540 from Maison Francis Kurkdjian glows warm with a sugary edge. Saffron and jasmine open it, warm and faintly floral. The heart is amberwood and ambergris, lifted by the fresh, transparent bloom of Hedione. Underneath, cedar, burnt sugar, Ambroxan, oakmoss and a resinous touch of fir give it a woody, almost candied depth. It launched in 2015 and is worn by men and women alike, often by people who want something that feels clean and rich together. Wear it through autumn, winter and spring, mostly in the evening and at night. The longevity vote leans eternal and the sillage vote leans strong, so start light. A 3ml decant tells you in a week whether you want it every day.
