Even before TikTok discovered it, some of us were longtime fans of chic French perfume house Maison Francis Kurkdjian for its refined and complex scents. They're truly unlike anything I've ever smelled, and slowly, I'm building up a collection of my must-haves. The current TikTok favorite is definitely Baccarat Rouge 540, but I can almost guarantee it won't be the only scent from the brand to go viral.
Whether you like something musky, woody, or a sweeter floral scent, Maison Francis Kurkdjian has something for you. I don't usually like to attach gender to fragrances, but I think this particular French house is so good at balancing traditionally feminine and masculine elements in each of its fragrances. They really do smell deliciously intoxicating on everyone. If you've been thinking of taking the plunge and investing in one yourself, keep scrolling below. I got a well-rounded list of the best sellers straight from the brand that will help you decide.
1. Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum
Key notes: jasmine, saffron, cedarwood, ambergris
I'm not usually a fan of vanilla-smelling perfumes, but this sophisticated scent remains a best seller (and TikTok-user obsession) due to its complex nature. There are so many different layers to it, from the lighter notes of jasmine to earthy cedarwood, but it never feels overly heavy.
