Take Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum, remove that artificial, almost clinical sweetness or synthetic note, and add the violet from Dior Homme Parfum (2024): et voila! I can't understand the hate, I don't even particularly like Baccarat itself, but this one, as I said, doesn't have that very synthetic, artificial note of Baccarat and instead has beautiful, pleasant, and refined violets that remind me of Dior Homme, which I also liked a lot! Somehow it also reminds me a tiny bit of Bianco Latte, but maybe that's just the sweetness.
Regarding longevity and sillage: it holds quite well, but you don't perceive it very strongly! I would recommend it more for women, but it's also good for men, seasonally I would actually call it an all-year-round fragrance, maybe not necessarily in the peak summer, but otherwise it fits!
