I'm a huge BR540 lover, and believe me this one does the DNA justice, not only is it an excellent clone but it also adds a unique, super sexy and fresh edge to the scent. Absolutely lovely. Had a 5 ml decant and squeezed every last drop out of it.

As other reviews mention it’s a great scent however no one mentions how terrible the performance is. You’d be lucky to get more than 3-4 hours maximum as this is a water based fragrance.

Probably the best BR540 clone you'll get your nose on, but not exactly cheap if you're having it shipped to North America. There are less expensive alternatives, such as Al Haramain's Amber Oud Rouge, but as good as that one is, you will definitely note the quality of Taif Al Emarat is superior. If you want something as close to BR540 without its price tag, this may suffice at perhaps $140 less BR540's retail for the same amount. In short, at some point, splitting hairs gets pretty expensive.

Baccarat Rouge Extrait but 10 times better and slightly woodier. Although theyre pretty similar T03 perfoms and projects way better. Get your hands on this if you enjoy the BR540 DNA, as this one smells more refined somehow unlike those cheaper copies.
