Rosewood Amor closely mirrors the signature scent of Baccarat Rouge 540, capturing its airy, sweet, and medicinal character with an elegant balance of saffron, raspberry, and ambroxan. The opening displays a crisp, floating sweetness reminiscent of crème brûlée, with a distinct woody and musky depth that evolves into a dry, amber-laced drydown. While not as long-lasting or projecting as the original, it maintains a moderate longevity on skin and cloth, with most wearers noting noticeable performance for several hours. Its minimalist profile makes it ideal for daytime wear, especially in warmer months, and it blends seamlessly into personal fragrances without overwhelming. Despite criticisms about weak sillage and longevity, many users find it a compelling, affordable alternative to the luxury original.
