Sealing the alliance between Maison Francis Kurkdjian and Maison Baccarat, two symbols of French excellence, Baccarat Rouge 540 Édition Millésime is an exceptional olfactory and artisanal creation, embodying the alchemy of the senses more than ever.

Born in 2014, Baccarat Rouge 540 is a unique piece in the olfactory wardrobe of Maison Francis Kurkdjian, an inimitable trail that has become an icon of contemporary perfumery. Inspired by the manufacturing secret of "red with gold," obtained by the progressive fusion of clear crystal and 24-carat gold powder at the exact temperature of 540°C, it evokes extraordinary metamorphoses where the hand of man interacts with the magic of nature.

Extending the fascination, Baccarat Rouge 540 is now revealed in its ultimate expression.

With Baccarat Rouge 540 Édition Millésime, Francis Kurkdjian sought the quintessence of quintessence. Without ever betraying the original inspiration, this variation has been sublimated thanks to ambergris, a rare and precious natural material. A fragrance with floral, amber, and woody notes, Baccarat Rouge 540 Édition Millésime appears in its most sovereign and refined form, offering a fusion between the minerality of ambergris, the warmth of fire, and the air breathed by the craftsman shaping the crystal.

The red crystal bottle and its clear crystal imprint, created thanks to the talent and audacity of the Baccarat collective, required five hundred hours of work and mobilized nineteen artisans, including several of the Best Craftsmen in France and Knights of Arts and Letters, masters in the art of blowing, cutting, modeling, gilding, and engraving.

Made of red crystal, this bottle embodies the meeting between artisanal heritage and the rigor of assured modernity. This ambitious project is designed with a vaporizer, a unique technical feat in the world of perfumery. It took two years of research and development to combine watertightness, design, and functionality, without sacrificing beauty.
