Al Haramain Perfumes
Amber Oud Rouge
“BR540 without the BR540 markup — the dupe that earns the comparison.”
Al Haramain's 2019 release — a saffron-ambergris composition closely tracking the Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 profile. Jasmine at the heart, a musky cedar base. A budget gateway to the modern amber-saffron-sugar wave. Wears strongest in fall and winter, day-to-night.
