Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait de Parfum ($475)
Your doorman or coworker probably won't pick up on it, but Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait is supremely sexy. Then again, this parfum isn't for them. That's because the most sensual scents are those that only fully reveal themselves in true intimacy and after one is invited to draw closer. That's exactly what this arid (and aerated) veil of almond, jasmine, and crisp wood buoyantly does, complements of counterintuitive ingredients (like metallic ambergris and resious saffron) that eliminate any suggestion of the saccharine or saturated. The effect is gender neutral and seasonless.
