With experiences and accomplishment as one of the most famous perfumers in the perfumery world and the nose of Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Francis Kurkdjian and his business partner Marc Chaya embrace the fragrance wardrobe concept of their brand and also bring out their passion for the art of perfume creation to create an absolute one-of-a-kind scent with exceptional know-how in the tradition of fine French perfumery for major luxury houses.
French crystal house requested him to tailor create a scent to celebrate its 250th anniversary in the year 2014. It was that time when one of the most talk-of-the-town fragrances, Baccarat Rouge 540, was created and launched as a limited edition. Unisex Eau de parfum opens with notes of jasmine and saffron, mixed with mineral notes of ambergris and woody tones of cedar. Francis Kurkdjian wanted to create a graphic fragrance with a formula that was taut and compact in the extreme.
This perfumed performance owes its name to the manufacturing process of the emblematic red color of the Maison Baccarat: the metamorphosis of clear crystal which mixed with a 24-carat gold powder and brought to a progressive fusion of 540 degrees covered with a bright red coat. It was bottled in 250 luxurious, artisanal bottles. The bottle was designed in the 1940s by Georges Chevalier, who was the creative director of the house from 1916 to the 1970s. The Rouge 540 bottle is a monumental crystal spiral weighing 500 grams and comprising 160 facets: 96 on the bottle, 64 on the stopper.
In 2016, this little wonder is naturally invited to the Maison Francis Kurkdjian celebration perfume collection, dressing for the occasion in Maison's signature bottle. Maison Francis Kurkdjian presents "Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait de Parfum", a new variation in its most prestigious concentration of the original perfume in the following year. The bottle is bright red, evoking the iconic Baccarat red.
The bottle also has a gold-colored cap, which echoes the plaque on which the name of the perfume is inscribed. The perfume extract allows us to discover a more intense version. Each facet of the fragrance has been redesigned while remaining faithful to the original inspiration.
