DIY Baccarat Rouge 540 CLONE: Full Tutorial (SUPER EASY)

Hey Everyone! As promised, here is my 1k subscriber celebration special! I wanted to give back to you guys for being so awesome and sticking with me along the road to 1k, so here's a video on how to make one of the simplest clone fragrances ever- BR540! Most fragrances are 50-80+ materials, so this one is a GREAT starter clone to make if you don't want to spend a ton of money on materials. BR540 is great, but save yourself a few hundred bucks and give it a try on your own! All the links to ingredients and everything will be below! Enjoy :)

I can do a tutorial for a Tom Ford Cherry Smoke that was pretty simple if y'all are interested in that! It was only 30 ingredients so more complex but that was one of my better clone attempts- maybe 80-85% similar. Let me know!

I work at a big time marketing firm and I lead the "viral marketing" department, I know viral worthy content when I see it and this is one of them 👌 Keep this series up

Thank you, I just finished my first two batches. The six and seven ingredient versions. Very happy.

[nolondant]

Made a batch and had a lot of fun! I went all the way with your recipe and I’m enjoying the almond-y flare it has. Thanks!

One of my best friend’s fav frags! It’s super expensive so she’ll be happy to have a way to make some that will last for a loooong time!

Great video! Keep doing these! If you start doing these videos more often you'll blow your channel up fast!!

Hi, it was a very helpful guide.
It will be great also if you teach us how to reverse engineering and figure out the recipe for any existing perfume by ourselves.
Thanks a lot 🙏

I got all the ingredients so I can make whipped body butter and some roll on oils I thank you much for this very informative video. 👏 I forgot a key ingredient so I ordered it but so far this is the beat guided video I found on this. I love baccarat and anything dupe of it like amber oud rouge. I'm so happy I found this!!

[nickburak]

Super! Now inspired to make fragrances. Your approach is quite unique in that you are very considerate of where people may be in their 'journey', if you will'.

Please consider making more vids like this with instructions/suggestions how we can develop our nose. Thanks again

[russellborrego]

Great video and insight! This video needs a "shorts" trailer for it for sure, so more people have a chance to see it and learn.

A perfumer Q&A would probably serve you well also, where you could just bang out the answers to a few subscriber questions real quick in response videos.

Regardless, it's been great to have been here from the beginning and watch your growth. Congrats on the 1k 👍👍

Hey Sebastian! Congrats! So happy to see your channel growing and I knew you'd see 1k subs sooner than you expected. Thanks so much for the shout out! Always happy to show support, my friend. I have smelled the original BR540 but don't own it. Love seeing your Perfumery videos as well. Keep the content coming. Still hoping to see you come up with a Gucci Envy dupe!
❤💯🎊

This is awesome, made it and love it. Made it to 25% concentration to 98% alcohol. I got problems with it lasting on the skin, I first thought just mine but my mates all love it and doesn't last on their skin either, I'm talking less then 30mins. After that your get a super faint smell. What can we add for longevity to adhere to the skin more?

P.s. not mocking your work, absolutely love it and this was my first perfumery project and fell in love with your formula. Just wanting more of your awesome advice on longevity. Thanks from the UK! 🇬🇧

It would be great if you can make more videos like this, very useful for learning journey, how each ingredients works together. Thank you, cant wait for more.

[ajabrams]

Really interesting! I’d love to see you do a video about how you got interested in becoming a perfumer and how you learned the craft. And thanks for the shoutout!!!❤️

7:47 I think there are ways to get as close to pure ethanol as possible, aka "dry ethanol" by adding some baked epsom salts to the ethanol and just letting it sit at the bottom, or filtering out the baked epsom salts. You basically have to forgo some of the ethanol in order to have it pure, like you just won't be able to use it all. The baked epsom salts absorb any water from the ethanol, that it absorbs from the moisture in the atmosphere. That's the case for a lot of solvents. They absorb moisture from the air.

[emirkarabeg]

Amazing video. I was wondering about the Safraleine because I noticed you mentioned it at the beginning of the video but didn't add it in at the end. Any recommendations for how to use it to recreate this perfume?

[nadiafischer]

Great video!
New Subbie!
I purchased all the recommended ingredients. I did not substitute. However, the scale you recommended is no longer available with Amazon. However, I did buy one similar. Let’s hope it has good calibration like the one you recommended.
I’ll be back in a week or so with an update of my results. ⭐️

Thank you very much for making this video! I LOVE this ❤

[WhomGodHasMade]

This video is awesome! Thanks for sharing. Do you know if it is possible to get the same ingredients as plant based isolates or extracts, instead of the synthetics? Thanks so much🙏🏽

[carlottagist]

Great video! I used all of the exact ingredients you listed and I made it last night and it turned out very well! It does have a strong alcohol smell to it. Does it need to sit for a period of time before I wear it for that smell to not be so strong? Is there something else I should add? Thank you for your help!
