Did I nail this video or what!!!! I’m obsessed with all three dupes and have been wearing them constantly, especially the Burberry her intense. Share your thoughts my loves 😘
We never knew with this new year I had my husband diagnosed with stage 4 cancer before the pandemic I went in a coma and my mom and sis almost lost her life but we made it thru 2020 and your video really gave me hope before 2020 we had such great joy and Im glad to hear you be so possible! And that possibility made me make it. Love ur channel
With the Burberry Her Intense maybe he made it to smell similar for those that couldn't afford 540 but still wanted to have the same feel of that fragrance. So people at all price points can enjoy his fragrances.
Because he is smart....not everyone can afford 540....besides they are not completely similar....540 is more medicinal, antiseptic type of a scent and Her Intense has less of that scent and leans towards the sweeter side. I cannot bare 540 unfortunately, but i adore Her Intense! Two perfumes, same vibe but kind of "polarised"....meaning that they cover everybody 's taste both 540 lovers and 540 haters....for me really smart move 😉
kyra williams I totally agree with you, that’s why I said there wasn’t a dupe that’s 100%. It’s definitely in a category of its own which makes up for the high price tag. Unfortunately your average person can’t afford the splurge on a $500 perfume bottle so having something that comes close and won’t break the bank is good.
That Burberry Her intense gets compliments from everywhere! After seeing this video Last year. I made someone gift it to me for Christmas. A few weeks ago I was sitting with my homegirl who actually owns baccarat 540 and she looked at me and said “You got on Baccarat??” I was so hyped on the inside!! 😂 … So if you’re second guessing, don’t. I get compliments from men and women! The men be like “You smelling good!” And the women just ask what do I have on because it smells so good. 10/10
I have both and my first though when I sprayed Allsaints is "omg it smells exactly like Baccarat". But after 10-15mns it turns to be more elegant, fresher, ocean and more like a younger lady than Baccarat
I have a decant of Baccarat Rouge 540, and finally, yesterday I went to Ulta to try Burberry her, Burberry her intense and Arianna Grande Cloud on my skin and on paper. My experience: the closer to BR540, in my opinion, is Arianna Grande Cloud but not in the beginning. Burberry fragrances are really different from each other and totally different from BR540. All of them are long-lasting with heavy sillage. But, you try before buy.
“A romantic dinner by the ocean” Omg that’s it! BR540 is my absolute favorite followed by D&G Light Blue Intense and Jo Malone Wood Sage & Sea Salt. Now I’m starting to see the trend in my taste! Will def check these out.
Same here! Love Dolce and Gabanna light blue intense and Jo Malone Wood Sage & Sea Salt. After watching this video i am tempted to try the all Saints sunset riot. Did you tried this one already or do you think BR540 is better? Of the All Saints one is fresher and cheaper it sounds good 😃
I love how you described Burberry her intense with the perfect makeup, and occassion to wear it with! If you were my friend I'd ask you to come over whenever I'm getting ready to go out so you can help me out
Hi Karina. I bought Sunset Riot and I have got sample of BR540 and I m shocked how similar it is. And big difference between the price. BR540 is £200 and I paid £36 for full bottle of Sunset Riot with discount. Thank you for great review it was very helpful 🙂
As someone who ultimately plans to purchase the real thing at some point, I will say that Sensual Instinct from the house of Montale is the closest thing to it that I've put my nose on so far. I ordered a bunch of samples that I received today and was totally shocked when I sprayed that one lol
I totally agree with you in regard to all saints cloud and her. I have her and cloud and went to Nordstrom here in the US before Christmas and smelled all saints I told the sales lady that it smelled just like cloud and the cloud was said to smell like 540. So it’s nice to know my noise was on point. I have never smelled 540 but get compliments when I wear cloud all the time. I will have to try 540 soon. Also I did notice that all saints did not have longevity which sucks. Love your accent 💕
ShawniGirl 540 is still verryyyy gorgeous but not everyone has that kind of many for a perfume lol I can appreciate these scents that are so close to it
I just received Sunset Riot in the mail maybe 5 minutes ago. I bought it just because of this review because I never heard of it before. But I love it!!! Thank you so much.
Bella Night by Oscar de la Renta is the best dupe for BR 540 between edp/edt in my opinion. Cloud by AG doesn’t remind me BR at all😅 Bath&Body Works has the whole line named “In the stars” and that one is even more closer to BR than any of these designer fragrances🙂 And it’s great to layering. (Sorry for my English)
I blind bought Cloud and on my skin it turned into something like burned plastic, but on my clothes it is amaaaaazing. I'm waiting for my Baccarat sample and I'm afraid as hell that I'm gonna love it :P
This is super helpful for me, I was thinking about spurging on a fancier perfume and heard amazing things about Baccarat Rouge 540, but was uncertain about spending money on something so luxurious and then not liking it. So a dupe would make me feel better just incase the scent was not for me.
I’ve been testing 540 all week. I learned it smells different on me depending on which soap I use to bath. Weird but I’ve learned which soaps to avoid and which work well with this perfume.
Alexandria Fragrances’ ‘Interplay’ is sooooo close to 540 (and it’s only $64). I’ve smelled all the ones you’ve suggested and they do smell similar, but y’all gotta get your hands on Interplay. I was FLOORED. I might do a review on it soon!
I actually blind bought Alexandria's Interplay Extrait and have already killed my bottle...well me and my husband. It's amazing and I love how it stays in my sweaters,scarves, and jackets so long and makes the closet smell amazing!❤
You be surprised how many compliments I get when I wear Cloud!! I am 38 years old, men and women asks me what am I wearing lol 😄I love it smells good! it also depends on your skin chemistry!💗🤗
Cloud by Ariana is my favourite dupe (I know I’m probably biased with my pfp haha) it’s so similar to Bacarat rouge but when it settles on the wrist, it’s definitely not the exact same but it’s very pretty. The price point is fairly good too and people always compliment me when I wear it.
Francis Kurkdjan is also the nose behind Nina Ricci's L'Extase Rose Absolue which is a beautiful, beautiful darker, sweet rose scent. The price tag is unbeatable and I feel like no one paid this beautiful fragrance any attention.
I have both the Burberry intense and the cloud...I think I prefer cloud it’s less candy smelling and sugary. Burberry reminds me of berry flavoured candy. Cloud is very long lasting stays on my clothes forever and people seem to notice it more much worth the money.
I find the dry down on Cloud to be really offensive to my nose! I loved it on the strip so I bought it and I'm regretting the purchase. If you're thinking of buying cloud I would reccomend smelling the dry spritzer before buying, the dry bottle has the same off note that bothers me on dry down. Every nose is different, so I can see why some love it. Just a warning! :)
cara westgate omg I agree once it dried on my skin I just wanted to shower ASAP to get it off I did not like it at all after it dries as she said it changes I was like YES!!!!
Oil perfumery, fragrenza, and yes alexandria all straight up have 540 inspired scent. I just ordered some yesterday and havent received mine yet. I own the 540 so it will be interesting to see if the 5 star reviews on the website are legit. Great video, I do love 540 so im in constant search for a cheaper version. Lol!!!
Daily Life! Pleaseeeee come back and let me know if they actually smell like it! I really want the exact scent but can not justify the price point at this moment
I just got my BR 540 but I can’t smell it past the first couple of moments after applying. Everyone around me says i smells amazing, but unfortunately I am in the class of not being to smell it.
Alpha fragrances sells authentic decanters and they have 540 for a great price in various sizes! They also have awesome reviews. If you want 540 but not quite ready to splurge on a full bottle, for sure go that route! New subbie!
Elle W Did not know about that site- have checked it out, looks reputable and the prices are good especially for something like this fragrance. Thanks 🙏
@@caligirl217 You're welcome! I came across that site here on YT, reading comments under a fragrance review as well! Checked it out, ordered 540 from them, got it really fast and it was authentic. I was sold on that site!
I like this perfume in the extrait formulation. To me the original formulation isn’t as strong and it’s kind of a cold, sterile scent to me. But the Extrait version is more stronger, sweeter and more warm. Only problem is that it’s very expensive at $425 here in the states although you can find it for much cheaper at Selfridges. But my favorite fragrance by this nose is Gentle Fluidity Gold and it’s much cheaper at $225 in the states. I like more sweeter scents and this one is sweet, feminine and warm, I love it!
My favourite dupe is no.504 intense from Eden Purfumes, I’m not sure if it’s available in US or Canada, I’m in the UK. It’s sooooo good, it’s vegan, cruelty free and it lasts longer than any other dupe I’ve tried. They do amazing dupes for lots of fragrances, I have the Flower Bomb one which is really similar too. You can search for your favourite on their website and it will bring up their dupe.
The best dupe for Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait is Al Haramain Amber Rouge. And for Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP is Al Haramain Manege RougeI own both an indeed it’s an unbelievable exact match.
Hi Karina, do you know where I can buy the All Saints Sunset Riot? I live in Portugal and can't find any place to buy it even on-line. Thank you 😘 you are amazing 😍
Great channel ! I’ve been watching your perfume reviews and find your feedback very informative. It’s like advice from a trusted friend. Thanks Karina :)
The top fragrances to be carbon copies of Baccarat and everyone stops you and thinks and asks if your wearing Baccarat are: Tiziana Terenzi Spirito Fiorentino and Al Haramain Amber Rouge. Personally Spirito Fiorentino I ended up liking more than Baccarat. It somehow is just as beautiful but more mysterious and slightly more masculine than Baccarat.
Hiiieeee!! Just came across this video and wanted to say you’re the bomb at describing scents! Loved how you described what kind of night out it would be like what you’re wearing, your make up because that’s exactly how I pick out my scent of the night!!! Thank you and god speed ❤️❤️
I would assume, and someone may have mentioned this before, that he made a similar fragrance for another company because he recognizes that most women cannot afford a perfume that costs as much as baccart rouge, and this way he still make a cut.
Just discovered your channel and I absolutely love your style and the way you present the fragrances! Plus, you’re the only one that loves Burberry Her Intense, which I also love! European here btw 🤗💕
@Karina Waldron I just recently received the Vanilla Doiree which is a dupe for Spiritueuse Double Vanille by Dior as well as the dupe for Carolina Herrara's Good Girl, and Delina. They smell very similar to the inspirations. Check out their website.
Karina, girlfriend, I loved this review! I had never heard of Sunset Riot. I'm ordering it tomorrow from Ulta (3.4 oz. for $79). Now, Ariana Grande Cloud is a fragrance I've never tried, but I was tempted to purchase a travel size until you mentioned Sunset Riot smelling closer to MFK Baccarat Rouge 540. I already had Burberry Her Intense on my dresser, so I sprayed it, and then sprayed my Baccarat Rouge 540 sample on top. I loved how well the two Fragrances meshed on my skin and how long-lasting the two were vs BR540 alone. I can't wait to receive Sunset Riot! Again, I thank you because BR540 is not in my budget. . . LoL, a 1-oz. bottle isn't in my budget. 😄 CELESTE, in the ATL 🌻
Check out DUA’s dupes.....they are AMAZING!, Not that cheap (about $50 for 30ml) but they are SUPERB dupes and are VERY strong, with great longevity, projection, and silage.
I absolutely love 540 but cant convince myself to pay that much for it lol BUT I found an alternative at bath and body works called In the stars. Smells just like it !
I fell for the hype, Baccarat Rouge 540 smelled like nothing on my skin. The Extrait version is a bit better but Arianna Grandes Cloud is just like it but better, way less expensive, has more projection and is longer lasting.
Thank you for this comment! I'm huge on projection after being let down by many reviewed scents that were weak. I hate the packaging but you've convinced me lol
Olympea is a perfect example of a salty perfume. So I get it when you describe something as salty. Lol. However, I own 540 and cloud. Cloud is great for those unable to afford 540. I will be checking out sunset riot just to smell it. I'm so curious. 540 is in my top 3 of all time. Mon Guerlain, Delina and MFK Baccarat Rouge 540.
I’m wondering, maybe the baccarat could be constructed via layering... a spritz of Olympea and a spritz of say cloud? Some salt water, some coconut sweet...
European here. Sheesh, you guys on the other side of the ocean definitely have your prices hiiiigh!!! I just checked and Cloud at my local store is 28 euros, sunset riot is 45 euros and her intense is 39 for 50 ml bottle.
Amazing review. I’m gonna run out and get Burberry Her INTENSE now! My question is though, would you recommend that as an every day, day to day all around scent? By day to day I mean for work or just running errands. Or just a date night scent?
Yes I would definitely. It’s a beautiful signature scent because it’s not overly sweet or overly strong! It’s a gorgeous feminine perfume that screams luxury
Go to the MFK official site,& u can get 4 (2mil) samples for 14€ or $17.94 shipping free!! I ordered the original dry oil spray for about $88 & it’s MAGICAL!! U seriously need to experience this fragrance in person!
IMO burberry her intense smells like hair spritz. Ordered all saints sunset riot because I just can’t bring myself to spend $300 on one perfume. I’ll come back and say how that blind buy goes. Update 12/17: I was SOOO scared because I didn’t like her intense or Ariana grande cloud but this all saints dupe is SPOT ON! The opening smells EXACTLY like 540. I don’t expect this dupe to have the same lasting power. The dry down emphasizes the pink pepper more but I feel satisfied with this. The dry down smell can honestly get lost. Probably will still get 540 for my birthday.
I love all your videos and my fragrance collection is getting really enormous. Your descriptions are amazing. I just picked up one by Prada and love it❤🧡💚
Hi Karen, I have only just found your channel a matter of days ago. I love your description of the fragrances and had wanted to try the Baccarat Rouge 540. That said, I had made the decision to buy blind. I bought the AllSaints set, which was on sale 😁 and got the 100ml plus a travel size to see if the massive investment for BR 540 will be worth it! I collect tomorrow and I have to say that I can't wait to try it! Are there any other fragrances that are similar to the expensive ranges that you can recommend? I love the perfumes with the powdery and clean notes. Thank you!!
I have bought Sunset Riot and I have samples from Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP and Extrait de P. They do smell really alike. Yet I feel Sunset Riot projects more and you smell more the Safran, i.e. it smells more pepperish. I would say that it smells less sweet than EDP and smells closer to Extrait de Parfum. Thoughts people ?
thanks Karina, I need to get my nose on BR 540 first! then I will let you know, but I just love binge watching all your perfume reviews! I have learned so much!
I see the resemblance between BR540 and Cloud but only in the air. On the skin Cloud smells more coconut. Parfums Vintage has the best dupe for BR540. Has great longevity and projection. I love it! Great video btw. I want to try Burberry next.
Karina Waldron It’s a clone house called Parfums Vintage and the fragrance is called Sunset in Heaven. I’m sure they ship Worldwide. I bought a decant before committing to a bottle and honestly it’s amazing. I wear it everyday. I don’t feel the need to buy BR540 anymore. I would say BR540 is slightly sweeter but I’ve done a side by side and it’s like 98%.
I have sunset riot and I’ve had it for about 6 months. When I first spray it it smells amazing, but after about 5/10 mins it’s a skin scent, you literally can’t smell it unless someone is directly smelling where you sprayed it. Cloud I recently got and it has a much stronger scent trail so I get way more compliments but it is a lot sweeter
Omg I love watching Katrina...she is so descriptive and always makes me want to go out and buy the perfume in her videos. She is the best beauty influencer which is why I decided to create my own channel called Lexindygurl☄☄
Thank you for this video. The information was definitely on point. I have Cloud and I will continue to wear it until I get my coins right (lol)... The 540 is expensive so a sister has it on her wish list. Thank you for doing a great job 💜💜
As I supposed you like Baccarat Rouge and you’d like to have it in tour collection, but as you mentioned at a beggining - it’s pricey. BUT - and I’m affreid we all tend to do this - when you sum up all the fragrances that you introduced to us here and you own them it’s probbably more that a sum you’d pay for a FK BR540 itself - f.e. at his page you can buy it for 195 euro (and it ships to Canada) which is around the same (or even maybe less) then the full proce for all the introduced scents. But of course, it all depends what gives us mor joy. But that is sth I tend to do sometimes - I want something expensive, but than I’d rather buy sth „cheaper” - or rather 2 or 3 bottles of „cheaper” fragrances:) - and actually spend on them even a greater amount of money. :)
martisticm well this video was to give options. You definitely don’t need all three scents but only one that best resembles 540 to you. Here in Canada that perfume is $400 for the small bottle. All three perfumes I mention in my video would come up to around $290, that’s still cheaper then one 30ml bottle of 540 lol. As I mentioned in the video 540 is gorgeous and some day I will probably end up buying it but for now it’s well over my budget so I’ll settle for something similar.
Did I nail this video or what!!!!
I’m obsessed with all three dupes and have been wearing them constantly, especially the Burberry her intense.
Share your thoughts my loves 😘
Beautiful I have Ariana Griande cloud. Do you by any chance also know of love don't be shy kilian dupe?
@Serena Chairs They don't have it yet.
Fantastic selection, so glad to finally get a review of these lovely scents in my collection.
@@djfresh7677 If you like Burberry her intense, try My Burberry black. Not a dupe of 540 but it's quite warm, rich, fruity and well rounded.
I like cloud but it indeed is missing that “oomph” that BR540 has. I think bc I can smell the saffron in BR540 and I love it!
approved.

@@Girlytang nobody wants a perfume for 540 dollars like bruh.
Baccarat Rouge is extremely complex, while a few come close, none have quite the intricacy or the sophistication of BR540. *Well* worth the splurge!

Karina Waldron Who cares if the dupe is not exactly the same. Some people are happy with a similar smell and that’s good enough for them.

I blind buy Burberry Her Intense because of this video and tbh I'm not disappointed. It smells so good. Thank you for making this review 😊
Thank you so much girl!! All saints is like an exact dupe !!! You’re the person I’ve found that had truly done their research
I only buy All Saints. It’s an incredible fragrance. Used to buy the 500 dollar 540, they are so similar, the $100 sunset riot is immaculate.

Rumor has it that Steven (from Redolessence) has a scent called Absolutio from his new release line Navitus that smells like B540.

Baccarat Rouge is such a beautiful fragrance; however I prefer the Gentle Fluidity Gold from his collection.
I wore this for a few days and the gentle fluidity gold was overwhelming and gave me headaches. I much prefer Baccarat
I own both perfumes and they are both stunning however Bacarat smells like a lingering organism gone supersonic.
YES. OMG. You’re the first person to agree with ME on this. Gentle Fluidity smells way better, in my opinion.
You be surprised how many compliments I get when I wear Cloud!! I am 38 years old, men and women asks me what am I wearing lol 😄I love it smells good! it also depends on your skin chemistry!💗🤗
bath and body works’ in the stars is also in that 540 realm
Agree!!!!
this makes so much sense considering in the stars and cloud are my go to scents! 😭😭
YOU are a dupe for a young, very pretty Oprah! My husband said the same. =)
LA Woman68 yes I was thinking the same! She looks just like her
I went to the comments just to see if anyone else thought this!
LA Woman68 hahahaha I get this comment on every video.
Yes she kinda speaks like oprah as well

Watching this Videos 10 months later in lockdown 2.0 in germany, we all know what 2020 had in store for us lol ....
Oil perfumery, fragrenza, and yes alexandria all straight up have 540 inspired scent. I just ordered some yesterday and havent received mine yet. I own the 540 so it will be interesting to see if the 5 star reviews on the website are legit. Great video, I do love 540 so im in constant search for a cheaper version. Lol!!!
Daily Life! Pleaseeeee come back and let me know if they actually smell like it! I really want the exact scent but can not justify the price point at this moment
Any updates on the inspired scents?
Baccarat Rouge is "candy floss vibes"-it's the adult version of Fantasy by Britney Spears :)
Such great recommendations! 😊 I would love to see more of your dupe suggestions!!
Kelsey Kovaleski thanks for watching hun.
Here is another video on some dupes for popular scents: ruclips.net/video/OBT_LErA3SM/видео.html
I just got my BR 540 but I can’t smell it past the first couple of moments after applying. Everyone around me says i smells amazing, but unfortunately I am in the class of not being to smell it.
Alpha fragrances sells authentic decanters and they have 540 for a great price in various sizes! They also have awesome reviews. If you want 540 but not quite ready to splurge on a full bottle, for sure go that route! New subbie!
Elle W Did not know about that site- have checked it out, looks reputable and the prices are good especially for something like this fragrance. Thanks 🙏
@@caligirl217 You're welcome! I came across that site here on YT, reading comments under a fragrance review as well! Checked it out, ordered 540 from them, got it really fast and it was authentic. I was sold on that site!
I like this perfume in the extrait formulation. To me the original formulation isn’t as strong and it’s kind of a cold, sterile scent to me. But the Extrait version is more stronger, sweeter and more warm. Only problem is that it’s very expensive at $425 here in the states although you can find it for much cheaper at Selfridges. But my favorite fragrance by this nose is Gentle Fluidity Gold and it’s much cheaper at $225 in the states. I like more sweeter scents and this one is sweet, feminine and warm, I love it!
The one you love to hate Spot on for my taste! Lol GF gold is my favorite, second is BR540 extrait :)
The one you love to hate I did try the extract and really like both. I agree that the extract is definitely a lot more stronger
I just found your channel on October 12 and I’m living for it!!!!
I love supporting my fellow Canadians!! New sub here! Great video, you did a fantastic job : )
My favourite dupe is no.504 intense from Eden Purfumes, I’m not sure if it’s available in US or Canada, I’m in the UK. It’s sooooo good, it’s vegan, cruelty free and it lasts longer than any other dupe I’ve tried. They do amazing dupes for lots of fragrances, I have the Flower Bomb one which is really similar too. You can search for your favourite on their website and it will bring up their dupe.
I love 540!! Thanks so much for the dupes. Such good finds. You totally nailed it ❤️
Can I just say you're truly beautiful. Your skin is absolutely gorgeous 🌷
The best dupe for Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait is Al Haramain Amber Rouge.
And for Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP is Al Haramain Manege RougeI own both an indeed it’s an unbelievable exact match.
I have Sunset Riot and in my opinion, is the closest to BR!
I’m just getting back into fine fragrances. Love your content! New subbie!
+ to dupes: zara mimosa clound (more close to ariana grande)
Hi Karina, do you know where I can buy the All Saints Sunset Riot? I live in Portugal and can't find any place to buy it even on-line. Thank you 😘 you are amazing 😍
Great channel ! I’ve been watching your perfume reviews and find your feedback very informative. It’s like advice from a trusted friend. Thanks Karina :)
Debra M hey friend! Thanks for the sweet comment and I’m soooo happy you trust me opinion. I always give my 100% honest review on every video.
The top fragrances to be carbon copies of Baccarat and everyone stops you and thinks and asks if your wearing Baccarat are: Tiziana Terenzi Spirito Fiorentino and Al Haramain Amber Rouge. Personally Spirito Fiorentino I ended up liking more than Baccarat. It somehow is just as beautiful but more mysterious and slightly more masculine than Baccarat.
Guuurl of course you have european viewers! Greetings from Berlin/Poznań 🇩🇪🇵🇱 💕
Love your content!
Karolina Milczarska 😘😘😘😘😘
Hiiieeee!! Just came across this video and wanted to say you’re the bomb at describing scents! Loved how you described what kind of night out it would be like what you’re wearing, your make up because that’s exactly how I pick out my scent of the night!!! Thank you and god speed ❤️❤️
I would assume, and someone may have mentioned this before, that he made a similar fragrance for another company because he recognizes that most women cannot afford a perfume that costs as much as baccart rouge, and this way he still make a cut.
Just discovered your channel and I absolutely love your style and the way you present the fragrances! Plus, you’re the only one that loves Burberry Her Intense, which I also love! European here btw 🤗💕
Alexandria fragrances makes a dupe for both 540 original and extrait version
ItsMJ really!!! I have never tried anything from that brand so I’ll definitely be making an order.
Thank you 😘
@Karina Waldron I just recently received the Vanilla Doiree which is a dupe for Spiritueuse Double Vanille by Dior as well as the dupe for Carolina Herrara's Good Girl, and Delina. They smell very similar to the inspirations. Check out their website.
@@karina_waldron , Alexandria Fragrances is run by the same people that produce Be Layered.
tblu B. Totally agree!!! I was floored when I smelled Interplay as it smelled exactly like 540 to me.
I loveeeee interplay, I always get complimented when I wear it. It’s such a distinct smell
Karina, girlfriend, I loved this review! I had never heard of Sunset Riot. I'm ordering it tomorrow from Ulta (3.4 oz. for $79).
Now, Ariana Grande Cloud is a fragrance I've never tried, but I was tempted to purchase a travel size until you mentioned Sunset Riot smelling closer to MFK Baccarat Rouge 540.
I already had Burberry Her Intense on my dresser, so I sprayed it, and then sprayed my Baccarat Rouge 540 sample on top.
I loved how well the two Fragrances meshed on my skin and how long-lasting the two were vs BR540 alone.
I can't wait to receive Sunset Riot! Again, I thank you because BR540 is not in my budget. . . LoL, a 1-oz. bottle isn't in my budget. 😄
CELESTE, in the ATL 🌻
Aww thanks girl and so happy this video was helpful! Hope you love sunset Riot!
DM me on IG when you get it
Karina do you have any dupes for the Creed perfumes? I love them a little too much, especially Spring Flower 🌸
Hey hun, I actually haven’t played around with any perfumes from creed but it’s definitely a brand I’ll be exploring in the near future.
Check out DUA’s dupes.....they are AMAZING!, Not that cheap (about $50 for 30ml) but they are SUPERB dupes and are VERY strong, with great longevity, projection, and silage.
I absolutely love 540 but cant convince myself to pay that much for it lol BUT I found an alternative at bath and body works called In the stars. Smells just like it !
I have in the star and cloud, they smell the same
Same here 🤣🤣🤣
Holt Renfrew has the 70 ml perfume oil of Baccarat Rouge for $125. I love perfume oil! Just a few drops will do!
Montale Paris - Sensual instinct is also dupe for BR540
Yeah it is. After is wears down the DNA is almost identical.
@kyra Williams I have it and I don‘t think they are similar whatsoever 😅
I fell for the hype, Baccarat Rouge 540 smelled like nothing on my skin. The Extrait version is a bit better but Arianna Grandes Cloud is just like it but better, way less expensive, has more projection and is longer lasting.
Thank you for this comment! I'm huge on projection after being let down by many reviewed scents that were weak. I hate the packaging but you've convinced me lol
Olympea is a perfect example of a salty perfume. So I get it when you describe something as salty. Lol. However, I own 540 and cloud. Cloud is great for those unable to afford 540. I will be checking out sunset riot just to smell it. I'm so curious. 540 is in my top 3 of all time. Mon Guerlain, Delina and MFK Baccarat Rouge 540.
We have the same exact taste!!!!! I probably would pick those as my top three also but I might have to add Tom for Noir pour femme! I’m obsessed
Yes. I cant afford rouge540 so i bought cloud instead ahuhuhuhu i wish i have more money hahahahaha
I’m wondering, maybe the baccarat could be constructed via layering... a spritz of Olympea and a spritz of say cloud? Some salt water, some coconut sweet...
@@rituparikh2255 that sounds interesting. I think cloud is close enough to 540 without help however I will try this and let you know. Lol
First time here and instant subscribe!!
You're so beautiful and I love the way you describe the scent 🥰
Great content!
Your gonna love her channel
European here. Sheesh, you guys on the other side of the ocean definitely have your prices hiiiigh!!! I just checked and Cloud at my local store is 28 euros, sunset riot is 45 euros and her intense is 39 for 50 ml bottle.
Amazing review. I’m gonna run out and get Burberry Her INTENSE now! My question is though, would you recommend that as an every day, day to day all around scent? By day to day I mean for work or just running errands. Or just a date night scent?
Yes I would definitely. It’s a beautiful signature scent because it’s not overly sweet or overly strong!
It’s a gorgeous feminine perfume that screams luxury
its my fav sent i get constant compliments
I’ve been hearing about baccarat 540 from you and my other fave perfume channel, Demi Rawling. And now I really want to smell it in person.
Go to the MFK official site,& u can get 4 (2mil) samples for 14€ or $17.94 shipping free!! I ordered the original dry oil spray for about $88 & it’s MAGICAL!! U seriously need to experience this fragrance in person!
Orientica Amber Rouge is the best dupe for BKR540, second one is Rasasi Qasamat Bareeq
IMO burberry her intense smells like hair spritz. Ordered all saints sunset riot because I just can’t bring myself to spend $300 on one perfume. I’ll come back and say how that blind buy goes.
Update 12/17: I was SOOO scared because I didn’t like her intense or Ariana grande cloud but this all saints dupe is SPOT ON! The opening smells EXACTLY like 540. I don’t expect this dupe to have the same lasting power. The dry down emphasizes the pink pepper more but I feel satisfied with this. The dry down smell can honestly get lost. Probably will still get 540 for my birthday.
Literally just bought the last one, used your link! thanks so much, this was super helpful!!! xoxo
I love all your videos and my fragrance collection is getting really enormous. Your descriptions are amazing. I just picked up one by Prada and love it❤🧡💚
Hi Karen, I have only just found your channel a matter of days ago. I love your description of the fragrances and had wanted to try the Baccarat Rouge 540.
That said, I had made the decision to buy blind. I bought the AllSaints set, which was on sale 😁 and got the 100ml plus a travel size to see if the massive investment for BR 540 will be worth it! I collect tomorrow and I have to say that I can't wait to try it!
Are there any other fragrances that are similar to the expensive ranges that you can recommend? I love the perfumes with the powdery and clean notes. Thank you!!
Did you end up liking it?
@@jazzm5557 hi there, happy new years. absolutely loved it! Its finished. I'm getting another one very soon!
INSTANT CRUSH by Mancera is probably the perfect and closest dupe to BR 540 😍
I remember I wore Burberry Her with Fall in Bloom BBW... someone thought I had on BR-540
All Saints is on sale for$59.50 at Nordstrom.
I have bought Sunset Riot and I have samples from Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP and Extrait de P. They do smell really alike. Yet I feel Sunset Riot projects more and you smell more the Safran, i.e. it smells more pepperish. I would say that it smells less sweet than EDP and smells closer to Extrait de Parfum.
Thoughts people ?
This is amazing thanks for sharing
ValliVon you’re welcome girl 😘
Another dupe is Zara Nuit por Homme V. So alike, and cheap!
thanks Karina, I need to get my nose on BR 540 first! then I will let you know, but I just love binge watching all your perfume reviews! I have learned so much!
I see the resemblance between BR540 and Cloud but only in the air. On the skin Cloud smells more coconut. Parfums Vintage has the best dupe for BR540. Has great longevity and projection. I love it! Great video btw. I want to try Burberry next.
Yea I agree that cloud on the skin really changes and doesn’t smell too close to 540. Perfums vintage, where can I find that?
Karina Waldron It’s a clone house called Parfums Vintage and the fragrance is called Sunset in Heaven. I’m sure they ship Worldwide. I bought a decant before committing to a bottle and honestly it’s amazing. I wear it everyday. I don’t feel the need to buy BR540 anymore. I would say BR540 is slightly sweeter but I’ve done a side by side and it’s like 98%.
I have sunset riot and I’ve had it for about 6 months. When I first spray it it smells amazing, but after about 5/10 mins it’s a skin scent, you literally can’t smell it unless someone is directly smelling where you sprayed it. Cloud I recently got and it has a much stronger scent trail so I get way more compliments but it is a lot sweeter
I have Sunset Riot and love it! Great review!
I have cloud it definitely smells a lot like 540 but I agree the packaging is immature. Btw you are so pretty!
Omg I love watching Katrina...she is so descriptive and always makes me want to go out and buy the perfume in her videos. She is the best beauty influencer which is why I decided to create my own channel called Lexindygurl☄☄
😭😭😭 Dont make me cry!!
Thank you for your beautiful words, I appreciate you so much.😘😘😘
Karina Waldron love this video by the way your wash and go is popping.
My 1st Love thank you!!!! Hair tutorial coming soon
Yea can’t wait to see it and also hair products 😍
Thank you for this video. The information was definitely on point. I have Cloud and I will continue to wear it until I get my coins right (lol)... The 540 is expensive so a sister has it on her wish list. Thank you for doing a great job 💜💜
Latonya Gipson-Bowman girl it’s on my list also lol I really cantttttt justify spending that amount at the moment
Great video! You are great at describing scents. Thank you 😊
As I supposed you like Baccarat Rouge and you’d like to have it in tour collection, but as you mentioned at a beggining - it’s pricey. BUT - and I’m affreid we all tend to do this - when you sum up all the fragrances that you introduced to us here and you own them it’s probbably more that a sum you’d pay for a FK BR540 itself - f.e. at his page you can buy it for 195 euro (and it ships to Canada) which is around the same (or even maybe less) then the full proce for all the introduced scents. But of course, it all depends what gives us mor joy. But that is sth I tend to do sometimes - I want something expensive, but than I’d rather buy sth „cheaper” - or rather 2 or 3 bottles of „cheaper” fragrances:) - and actually spend on them even a greater amount of money. :)
martisticm well this video was to give options. You definitely don’t need all three scents but only one that best resembles 540 to you. Here in Canada that perfume is $400 for the small bottle. All three perfumes I mention in my video would come up to around $290, that’s still cheaper then one 30ml bottle of 540 lol. As I mentioned in the video 540 is gorgeous and some day I will probably end up buying it but for now it’s well over my budget so I’ll settle for something similar.
I want the original ssooo bad for about 2 years now...bbbuutttt...that's my car note
BeautyByLinnoria girl I’m on the same boat lol
Jeremy fragrance says adriana cloud perfume smells exactly like bacarrat rouge
90%
Definitely not exactly lol
I just got cloud, definitely doesn't smell like it. I would say.. 80%. Imagine B540 but much cheaper.
No, it does not!! DUA Casino Royale Nights does....and it is just as strong. Check it out. Cloud is for kids.
love tour videos! so informative and love your curls!!
Thank you so much girl!
I love the smell of the Burberry it’s beautiful
