The composition

How it's built

Crystal follows the architecture that made its inspiration a modern icon: a bright, spiced opening resolving into a warm amber and clean woods.

Top0–15 min
Saffron, Jasmine
The lift. Spiced saffron and airy jasmine, luminous and slightly sweet from the first spray.
Heart1–4 hours
Amberwood, Ambergris
The signature. The amber-wood accord that reads as that famous toasted-sugar, candy-floss warmth.
Base4–12 hours
Cedarwood, Fir Resin
The settle. Dry cedar and resin hold the amber close to the skin, clean rather than heavy.
The dry-down

How it moves

Opening Heart Dry-down
Spray4h8h12h+

Loud and radiant for the first hour, then it draws in. By the afternoon it's a warm amber skin-scent that people lean in for rather than smell across a room.

Concentration is the fragrance-oil load. Crystal is built as an extrait, a higher load than the eau de parfum original, which is why it reads richer up close and holds longer into the dry-down. Approximate figures, for orientation.

exactly like BR 450-impossible to tell the difference

This is an exact EXACT clone of the real deal. I have both. No difference whatsoever. I'm male, and my wife and I love it. A very intoxicating, ethereal, unique smell. I can see why this is unisex- it can truly be used by either sex. One of the best fragrances I've ever had the pleasure of owning and smelling.

Baccarat duplicated at a lower cost

This is the best fragrance ever. I literally went into an exclusive restaurant and the hostess asked me if I was wearing Baccarat. I asked if she was kidding and looked around to see if I was on Candid Camera. The hostess laughed and said you smell soooo good.

Couldn't tell a difference

I was gifted a bottle of Baccarat Rouge and absolutely love it, but I'm almost out and can't spend $350-$600 on perfume. I decided to risk ordering this dupe and I am SO glad I did. It is almost identical. I am floored by how similar it is. It is slightly lighter/not as strong, but I actually like that better! The smell is identical. I am so so excited to get to continue to enjoy a fragrance I love at a much more reasonable cost! I just tried it, so I can't yet speak to the longevity of it, but I am really excited nonetheless.

LOVE

This perfume is spot on. I’m always asked if I’m wearing baccarat rouge 540. I even went into their store in Miami and wasn’t questioned if what I was wearing was a “dupe” VERY pleased. Will purchase again

"Crystal"- the Ultimate Dupe

Wherever I go, wherever I am - I ALWAYS get complimented on what fragrance I am wearing. I have samples of the actual MFK, and let me tell you the absolute truth.... I get more compliments on "Crystal" than I do with the MFK original. "Crystal" has the same aroma, depth, and pleasantness as the MFK original. I have been stopped by both men and women alike and asked "What are you wearing?" because you smell amazing. I am so happy with "Crystal" and OBVIOUSLY so is everyone else. The scent actually sells itself and is definitely WORTH every penny!! LOVE IT!!

Best scent ever!!

I get multiple compliments daily when I wear this. I switched to another scent for a few weeks and not nearly the compliments. The difference was noticeable. A woman even stopped me while I was waiting on some food at a food truck. She asked me what I was wearing! Men and women alike love this scent. One of my favorites ever!!!

Questions

What is an extrait, and why does it matter?+
Extrait de Parfum carries a higher fragrance-oil load than eau de parfum. In practice that means richer character up close and longer wear, which is how Crystal reads next to the eau de parfum original.
How should I apply it?+
Two to four sprays on pulse points, skin rather than clothes. It's potent, so start light. The opening is loud; give it twenty minutes to settle into the amber heart before you judge it.
What does the dry-down actually smell like?+
Warm amber and clean cedar with that signature toasted-sugar sweetness. It moves close to the skin over the day rather than staying loud, which is why it wears so easily.
Is it really comparable to Baccarat Rouge 540?+
It's built on the same saffron, amber and cedar architecture, in a higher-strength extrait. We list every note and ingredient here so you can judge the composition yourself.
