Game of Spades Rouge

Game of Spades - Rouge Picked it up at the mall while I was buying a completely different fragrance. Spent 45min smelling samples of all kinds of scents. This one stood out to me. It was so very pleasant: Soft, sweet, and floral. I was happy to add this to my purchase. I have worn it a few times since, really nice lasting power, not the best projection, but I could always smell it. It is welcomed in about any setting. No one will be offended by this at all, people smell this and just smile and want to know what that was but are not going to come asking. If you can find it, buy it around {$70-90}, you will not regret it. I would give this 86/100

Rappers, strippers, and influencers—oh my... So, Game of Spades Rouge by Jo Milano... I think it's the best BR540 clone I've tried. It's got a brighter vibe, less "old money" feel, but still that reddish sparkle. BR540 is everywhere, it's become kinda, like, the "homegirl" fragrance, ya know? Honestly, it's not as good as the other Jo Milano ones I've tried; Game of Spades Ace really hits harder. Game of Spades Rouge is fine, solid even, but nothing special. It's safe and kinda boring, good for people who want to blend in. Not my style at all, though - it doesn't fit my vibe. So yeah, it's alright, but it doesn't stand out anymore.

it's the best BR540 clone. better than untold because the opening is not as harsh and the dry down is creamier. this last a while but doesn't project unless you over spray, just like the OG. but this is a notorious nose blind DNA so keep that in mind. it's worth the couple bucks for the upgrade from something like untold. but not worth getting the OG if you want this DNA. solid 8/10

Yes, smells exactly like Baccarat Rouge. This is Baccarat Rouge at a much cheaper price.

#665 in my "Tour de Fragrance" The best price on this is from GiftExpress at $56. Don't do that. It's a clone of MFK Baccarat Rouge 540, not the extrait (The extrait adds an almond note this doesn't have. The "it smells like" section was scored by people who apparently can't read the notes). It's easy to confuse all the Baccarat clones. We have so many to choose from. Alhambra's Barouque Rouge 540 (BR540 clone) Barouque Rouge Extrait (Extrait clone). Al Haramain's Amber Oud Ruby (Extrait clone) and Amber Oud Rouge (BR540 clone). Orientica Amber Rouge (BR540 clone), Exclusif Oud Rouge (a more gourmand take on BR540). We could probably add four or five others that are in this same ballpark. Someone thought of Guess Seductive Red, which is more floral, fruity, spicy and feminine and only EDT in strength. It's priced at $23 (The men's version of Seductive Red is a completely different scent). Of all of the above I think the Alhambra Baroque Rouge 540 and Extrait come very close to the originals, and they're priced under $20 at Jomashop. This Jo Milano version isn't bad, I just think, "Why would I pay $55-$75 dollars for a clone I can get for $17?" Just like the original Baccarats there's everything to like in this scent and nothing to dislike. I've yet to encounter a jasmine scent I didn't think is nice. Car pool, elevator and office safe, but definitely feminine leaning. Acceptable performance overall.

This is a straight up BR540 dupe, but stronger. More dense whereas BR540 is more airy. And it lasts and lasts! If you can find it for a good deal then it's a terrific alternative. I found it for a GREAT deal on FragranceNet! I definitely wouldn't pay the $220 price tag on Jo Milano's website when there are soooo many cheaper and extremely similar options out there. However, the packaging and presentation is TOP NOTCH!! Absolutely beautiful bottle and cap and the box is very nice as well.

the longest lasting and most powerful fragrance i own. i'll spray it on myself in my room and still catch the smell of it when i enter the room 24 hours later, i'll wake up and smell this in the air, this lasts on clothes for SEVERAL days. i will put it on, shower, and still be able to smell it hours later. this is an unadulerated beast. the smell isn't for me though, it's a bittersweet (literally, it is bitter and sweet) floraley bergamot that's too feminine for me. 7/10

Yes I will start by saying this cologne to me smells pretty similar to BR540. Where it differed is I personally think GoS Rouge has a bit more sweeter scent to it, which I honestly enjoy a bit more. I would not pick this up at its full retail price and try to find it at a discount because I believe you will like this fragrance more at a sub $100 price point compared to it at it’s original $220 on it’s website

best take on BR540 imo. Smooth, well blended and yes it does last. They removed the rubber scent from untold. unisex but leans masculine a bit.

BR540 IS WHAT YOU GET 5-10 MINUTES AFTER THE FIRST SPRAY...LONGEVITY IS ABOUT 8 TOO 10 HOURS WITH MODERATE SILLAGE...VERY NICE DUPE OF BR540

So my take on this is it is definitely in the BR family but it’s not long lasting. But it does seem to be getting better as it sits. Someone with a bottle of a year or longer let me know. Not bad I like it so far

First off huge fan of the BR540 DNA Been through all the clones pretty much -Armaf untold (older batches were amazing twist) -Amber oud ruby (pure alcohol) -Amber oud rouge (older batches were nice newer just alcohol) -that barakkat rouge from fragrance world (pretty accurate but not as long lasting and harsh opening) -frank pure addiction (nice peppery orange rind twist reminded me of PDM Kalan) Game of spades Rouge!!! This comes closest to the BR540 EDP DNA honestly blown away. Barakkat rouge did as well but it had a harsh opening but this has that heavily accurate smells up close of latex/baked bread/freshly printed money that I Remeber the OG BR540 EDP had But in the air it’s that sweet creamy ambroxian cotton candy magic. You will go nose blind keep in mind I personally don’t do over 6-8 sprays of this stuff. I need to try the Extrait my goodness.

Siempre veía que la gente comparaba mucho cloud con BR540. Yo solo he tenido cloud de Ariana Grande y nunca he olido BR540 Pero pensaba que nada que ver esa comparación. Por que estoy mencionando esto? Pues resulta que tengo una pequeña muestra de este perfume y quede atónita cuando lo aplique y descubrí que es exactamente el mismo tipo de perfume que es Cloud No puedo decir que sean exactamente iguales pero el ADN es sin duda muy similar Y si este perfume es comparado con BR540 ya no me queda duda de que el de cloud de Ariana debe ser muy parecido también

I feel like I’m being trolled by the comments. I bought this, and yes, it does smell like baccarat a bit after the dry down, but the opening just smells like straight alcohol. And it’s not lasting, in my opinion. My girlfriend sprays it like 10 times, and I swear after 30 minutes, it’s not existent. I personally think this is one of the worst clones I’ve ever purchased.
