Yes, you need both. Both are heavenly! Extrait is more woodsy while regular is more fresh.
Totally agree!
I purchased Extrait today because of this video…and Nordstrom did price match!
I love this scent. It’s such a compliment getter. Thanks for doing this review.
It always turns heads. You are so welcome.
👏 Thank you for clarification that there is no dupes for this precious perfume.👏
No problem! Baccarat Rouge 540 stands alone.
Agree
OMG girl! I've FINALLY been gifted the extrait and I AM IN LOVE! I've had the edp for years and I like it a lot, but it doesn't last very long and it does a disappearing act on me... The extrait however lasts for eternity, I've worn it out twice and got compliments in elevators, office, even from my head elf who got it for me because I told him that once I had it my collection of just over 90 frags would be complete! I know it's premature, since I received it yesterday, but I think I've FINALLY found my signature scent!
That's great!
Had to get back on here as FINALLY placed an order for the EDP - thanks for the head's up on the 15% discount!!
Yes! I like to save my elves some coin!
Thank for your review. This girl went ahead and bought both perfumes and added Aventus for her by Creed. I smell fabulous, I feel fantastic my confidence up!! You are right, dupes are not worth it always for the original.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching.
Great detailed review!
Thank you for watching
Thank you for the comment, I’m waiting on my purchase of the MFK Extrait, and I don’t have nowhere to go, fell in love with it at first smell 😂
You are welcome! Yasss the Extrait is the way to go.
Love the wallpaper !!!
Thank you!
I so want the MFK Baccarate Rouge EDP just can't afford at this time. Have gotten some dupes of the EDP & ohhhh sooo goood! Kinda funny - when it's "that good", we always remember the place and time! lol Thanks again Santa - a total trust with you girl!!
Scent memories are very real! I appreciate your trust.
I purchased MFK Extrait and wearing it in the evening at the office and it is a compliment getter.💖
You smell divine!
I love your nail color!!! Love both of these perfumes but I save the extrait for date night or going out somewhere 😘
Thank you! Yassss special occasions for the extrait!
I love both! My favs
Thanks for sharing.
I love love love this perfume
I see why, I love it too.
I love your videos, I just found you today. The 540 day time is beautiful and I will most likely be adding it to my collection when I finsh the sample. On a completely different perfume if I may ...
I just smelled Tiziana Terenzi -TELEA- Extrait De Parfum today at N.M. and that perfume will stop you in your tracks, think luxurious Miami Hotel. Have you heard of if or smelled it as of yet? I'd love to see a review.
My signature is the Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge. Love it
Thank you for watching. Yes I have heard of Tiziana Terenzi. I showcased some samples from the brand in my last fragrance haul video. Telea is on my list to smell! Thanks for your review of it. Jasmine rouge is pretty and you smell amazing. ! It's on my Tom Ford Wishlist
@@TheSantaMaria1 I just got home from a trip 30mins ago, I started unpacking, Tom Ford slipped and busted all over the tile. Today sucks!
Yesssssssuh! Talk about it. Love at 1st sniff. Im arrested and its held me hostage in love cuffs!
Yes indeed!
I am fairly new to perfume wearing on the regular and really loving it so far. Excited to smell them both and decide what one I like best unfortunatelyI don't live near any department stores that carry either of these, ugh.
Welcome to the world of perfume! I suggest ordering samples .
@@TheSantaMaria1 I'd love to but don't see the option to on website
@@ladyjmarie5569 Try websites that specialize in decants. I'm from Europe, but I hear people talking about Maxaroma and Scents Gifts all the time. Maybe you can try there?
I get more compliments when I wear Bond9 Tribeca. One day I sprayed Tribeca and Greenwich village on n A guy followed me out of the store to get the name of my fragrance 😄
Thanks for sharing
I have them both. Very much unisex. I get lots of compliments from both. I often layer it with my creed Aventus
Nice! Thanks for sharing.
I haven’t gotten to smell this fragrance yet. I know you said there is none like it, but I’ll ask a silly question anyway. 😊 I’ve heard many people say it’s extremely close to BBW In the Stars (which I don’t like). Is it really that close? Because I’ve also heard some of the same people say MM By the Fireplace is nearly the same as BBW Bonfire Bash- which to me they’re totally different! Just wanted your opinion. Thanks!
In The Stars does not smell like Baccarat Rouge 540.
Hi Santa, I got a decant of the extrait, and I am trying to detect the almond in it. Are you sure they have reformulated and left the almond out? What I get in the first 60 min or so is a minty/fresh vibe. I am one of those who couldn't care less about the BR. I got me a bottle anyway, but never really wore it. Now that I am trying the extrait, I feel like my heart is opening up more and more. I love how perfume does that. Like life and love: sometimes it is a crush, sometimes it's love at first sight, and sometimes it is the comforting, mature, and familar feeling of an age-old love that has ripened, and is based on understanding. It is here to stay for eternity. I'm not quite there yet, but I got it 100% with Oud Satin Mood.
You would have to check the MFK website for current notes. Ive had my bottle for years and it is the original formulation. Hahaha yes perfume is truly an experience and journey. Love Oud Satin Mood! Keep on sampling. :-)
I got a decant if the extrait and it was atomic and very almondy. I just purchased the bottle from Saks and it is definitely different, weaker. MFK is just watering down their perfumes these days. SMH.
Costco price for Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait de Parfum is $624.99 for members on sale now.
Thanks for sharing.
I agree, I do not do clones, me personally and I take no slights at anyone who does clones but I just feel like I want the original that creator. I do not want the carbon copy, the one that waited for someone to create something and then go copy it. If it is too much for me I much rather wait and save my money and buy it than get a copy.
Yea just get the real thing for sure.
I just got the Extrait De Parfum 6.8oz and it is more than that now.
Ive had my bottle for years so that is why the pricing is different than it is now
Question they have the Lotion and Body wash for the EDP and I wonder if you use the that body wash and lotion then apply the Extrait De Parfum would there be a conflict in the scent.
I do not buy body care
@@TheSantaMaria1 okay, Thank you I appreciate you answering
I have been hesitant to try the extrait. I had a bad experience with getting the extrait of "Not a Perfume." I LOVE the original, but in my opinion, the extrait is just bad. I am saving for a bottle of the BR 540 EDP. In anyone's opinion, should I just get the extrait? I'd love to hear any opinions! It wasn't love at first sniff for me, but I have fallen in love with it! I was able to score a bottle of the hair mist recently. Mmmmmm!
Juliette has a gun perfumes are not good to me either. MFK is a totally different league. You should sample and explore from MFK before making a purchase. I started with samples as well so I knew I absolutely loved both versions of BR540 when I got them.
@The Santa Maria I have the hair mist and love it. I do like the regular Not a Perfume but the extrait of that was to me, smells horrible! I asked The Hub for the BR 540 body lotion and oil spray for Valentines Day, so we'll see if I get those!!
If you are a fan of gourmand scents what one would you suggest?
The extrait is more gourmand due to the almond note.
@@TheSantaMaria1 ohhh ok ty
Yes yes love BR 540 bomb complainants I have it in the body oil I get mad compliments everyday imo it blows tom ford and creed out the park
Thanks for sharing.
Did they change the formula because the new edp that I bought isn't as strong?
I have the old formula
I’m pretty sure i will be getting the extrait😭 i need ATLEAST one. I should probably go with the most affordable, but oh well😭
hahaha go ahead and get the extrait.
Is the extrait version missing that medicinal/latex note of the original BR540? I’m sampling the regular 540 and like it but that latex note is standing out too much.
I do not get that smell so I can not say.
That medicinal smell disappears very fast on skin and it magic starts
I mixed it with the Gentle Fluidity Gold and in cut that medicinal smell and it smelled amazing
WOnder what do you have or what have you smelled that is stronger than the Extrait De Parfum?
There are a lot of fragrances stronger than the extrait. lol
@@TheSantaMaria1 I don’t doubt it, just wondering what, can you name a few
I heard the red bottle smells more masculine. For you, is this true?
It's perfectly unisex
I have spent alot on dollars on dupes. From now I would rather go for the real deal. Getting it soon.
I am interested in your glasses, kindly share the details.
The real deal is always the best way to go. Glasses are Versace
@@TheSantaMaria1 Thank you
It didn’t last 15 minutes on me. Sad cause it’s a nice scent.
You most likely went anosmic to it.
Do you think the original is more medicine Note?
Thanks for watching
Can I buy the Extrait version for a man 👨?
Yes you can. It's unisex :-)
Yes! My husband and I share it. But when HE wears it, OMG!!!! So good. He’s had people around us say “omg someone smells so good” we know they mean him 😂
It’s crazy because I feel the extrait is more for a woman, I have that one. The other one smells more like an old man cologne to me 😩 but EVERYBODY says the opposite. Even in comments
Thanks for sharing
Opposite. I love original, but not from the first spray. It how it develops on the skin and how it projects .
Thank you, also don't get the AG Cloud dupe thing, some cheap similar notes, but just a hole other lvl! It's such a soft, never to much, but at the same time so long lasting (on me easily the hole day and on clothes, way longer), so seductive and really magical, and it's sooo amazing for layering, today and the last 2, 3 weeks I'm obsessed with Baccarat Rouge EdP layered with Erba Pura by Xerjoff, ufff, such an intoxicating, sexy, absolut beast mode in every section - scent, if you own Erba Pura, you have to try it, it gives really every fragrance something special👌🤌🤪😘
Thanks for sharing. I need to get my nose on Erba Pura.
@@TheSantaMaria1 uuh ja, it's a powerhouse of a fragrance🤌🤪😘 So not a safe blind buy, sharp-veeery fruity, but especially the dry down, ufff, the ambergris comes through so good, my sister wore it on her birthday, she sat a view chairs away from me, but I always could smell it, but also never to much, the fruitiness etc is very alluring and fresh, just great, especially with Baccarat Rouge 540, but if you love BR540, I think you probably also will enjoy Erba Pura, especially in the dry down similar vibes.... Stay safe, katharina👌💞
