In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Our editor reviews Baccarat Rouge 540 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Read about its saffron opening, amberwood dry-down, and the polarization of its sweet, metallic skin scent.

Reviews →

Lenore's Tomb opens with a bittersweet prickle of safflower, sweetened lightly by sugar and white star jasmine. Damp oakmoss and cedar pull the heart into a cool, graveyard shade, anchored by mineral ambergris and dark musk. It smells atmospheric, somber, and distinctly gothic for October nights and quiet autumn walks.
