Performance notes and sources
Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait
Extrait accounts describe about 10–12 hours on skin and persistent amber woods. Clothing persistence is not used to set the skin-wear band. Editorial estimate from retrieved accounts; reports vary and no representative consensus was measured. Earlier assessment: Pronounced projection is supported; retrieved passages do not establish a skin-hour band. Editorial estimate from retrieved wearer accounts, not a measured consensus. Performance varies by skin, application and version. Accord ratings were not reassessed.
