What wearers say
“Very similar to cloud, but not Baccarat. Cloud has a more of a coconut heavy note. This is sweeter and I actually get a cinnamon scent from it. My husband said cloud smells like cinnamon and I never got that. Now I get it. For this price this is very nice. But there are far better dupes for Baccarat Rouge. The closest dupe too Baccarat is Nude Beauty courage fragrance. Please add it here.”
“It’s a Baccarat Rouge clone for 6€, smells exactly like it. One spray on my skin lasted 6 hours, very good quality and longevity for that price. The smell stays on the skin even after you shower. Smells pleasant, it doesn't smell cheap.”
“This is really a great dupe for Baccarat Rouge 540!!! Unfortunately I couldn't do a side by side comparison, because Baccarat Rouge 540 isn't for sale in Utrecht, where I live, but Elegant Woman smells like what I remember Baccarat Rouge 540 smelling like. The longevity is great, I sprayed it on my wrist yesterday, and I can still smell it, 20 hours later!!! And that for a cheap ass dupe € 9,95 for only 100 ml!”
