For Him Red Edition

This bottle is a blind buy, and it turns out to be surprisingly amazing. After the initial test, I read some reviews here and watched some videos reviews on Youtube, and learned that most people compare it to BR540 by MFK. Then I went to the store and smelled BR540. I do agree with those remarks that this is a dupe of BR540. This is a sweeter yet less "complicated" version. I am attracted to the initial sprays. It is sweet, almost candy-like, yet warm and deep. It smells delicious as a well made dessert, yet not cloying. Normally I am not a fan of gourmand perfumes, as I often find them too sweet, like syrup sticking to my skin. However, this one has the "right" level of sweetness to my nose. It is a very simple perfume. That's why I would say, compared to BR540, it does not have that much depth. On my skin it can last the whole day, and I have received compliments in my office. This is a beautiful perfume for cold days. It comforts you, it warms you up. If you are looking for either a cheap substitute for BR540, or simply a cheapie with good performance for winter, I highly recommend this bottle.

Another Baccarat Rouge copy in the market. Great version for the price. Lovely and comfy Fragrance! It gives a lot of childhood memories, like eating sweet caramelized popcorn memmories! Zara version is vey sinthetic and has more citrus and fresh notes than the original Baccarat Rouge. Opens more sweet, like a caramelized orange slice, than the sugary melts and becomes more citrus, fruity and ambared based fragrance with some pink pepper notes and soft powdery nuance. I love the way that the amber was worked as a sugar and caramelized smell in the beginning. Well done. Very simple, easy to use works good, any moment and most of any temperature. Great for office and signature scent IMO, use this at temperturate under 25oC (not very hot summer day) It has more romantic side, this is awesome for dating. Totally genderless Great perfomance: 7-8 hours lomgevity Great sillage for 3 hours. I can notice a friend of mine who wears Zara Red for Him for 3 meters far from me. Even it has a strong sillage, it doesn't annoy anyone

i have tested both zara for him red and br540 side-by-side and i find that it's a 95% match. zara's version has a slight sharper/spicier note included but maintains the br540 dna, while br540 smells soft throughout in comparison. longevity for zara's is moderate, sillage is moderate, but of course falls after a while, roughly 6-8 hours. overall it is a very good resemblance and to the normal person there wouldn't be any difference. would recommend if you don't want to spend the hundreds of dollars. i have also tested the 'intense' version. the intense version takes a little bit longer to work, and i feel like there is a slight difference in notes, as when i tried it, it didn't hit the same as the non intense version did. tl;dr zara for him red : 95% match and smells like it instantly (although slight alcohol opening) zara for him red intense : takes a while to start smelling the same, but only 85% the similarity, and does last longer (in my experience)

br540 dupe without a prominent saffron/latex/dentist office/bromine note. this is either good or bad depending on who you are. not an exact clone. because of this, the moss comes out more prominent when smelled up close. the citrus is extremely rare to pick up, if it all. it would be a great twist to add a touch more orange or bergamot just to brighten it up. has the same airy, transparent quality. best smelled in the air just like the original. though it's sweet, it's not cloying or heavy. either due to the high chance of going anosmic or the intrinsic wispy quality to it. sillage isn't great which is super safe for everyday use. creates a nice bubble though. performance is mixed depending on your environment. on dry days it's gone within a few hours, but in humid days it performs well at around 5-6 hours. last long on clothes. well worth the money, would absolutely recommend to anyone that likes the br dna but doesn't like the saffron.

Ladies don’t let the FOR HIM confuse you - this is completely unisex. I love it on my husband but also feel comfortably feminine when I wear it. It is sweet. No latex or rubber vibes. When I wear it I do find it does a disappearing act (sometimes not always) but when my hubby wears it I smell it long & strong lol. I have a lot of BR540 dupes and clones (mostly because I enjoy the scent profile but refuse to pay the OG prices when I go noseblind to it) and this is one of my favorites. Not a spot on dupe for the OG BR540 but Zara’s take on it in this version is gorgeous. I am on my 3rd bottle. I don’t care for Red Temptation EDP or Elixir but Red for him is truly beautiful. Try it on yourself and your SO wether you are male or female! It’s super affordable, the bottle is cute and it smells divine. Highly recommend to all and hope that Zara keeps this in their lineup for a long time to come.

I tried this at the Zara shop yesterday, when I first sprayed it, I smelled a sweet citrus scent, which was extremely nice for someone who dislikes citrus perfumes like me. Then I moved around for about 15 minutes, and to my surprise, I couldn't smell any scent from this perfume anymore, at all. Then I sprayed it on my body before leaving the store at 2 p.m., and I went on a walk around the city where I live until 8 p.m., during which time the perfume would arrive and leave extremely sweetly and lovely, like a teenage girl, making me assume that I was noseblinded by this scent.

Sou consumidor de vários perfumes da zara mas este é um "must have" da marca, uma das melhores, senão melhores "cópias" de baccarat rouge 540 (experimentei umas quantas). Foi-me dado de presente no meu aniversário de 19 anos (atualmente com 22) e não parei de usar ou desgostei dele, notas olfativas agradáveis a TODA a gente de TODAS as faixas etárias. Doce e bem ambarado, perfume juvenil e de fácil adaptação unissexo. 4.5/5 bom como um "daily" mas nada aconselhado para alturas de calor intenso ou até ameno. Como um bom português diria... um perfume DO CARALHO

This is 80% similar to BR540 with an orange zesty feel to it, If you love the BR540 DNA but more masculine leaning, this is it! It has the same airy sweet, effervescent and slightly metallic quality like BR540, however, for the price, it obviously projects less than the real thing but the longevity on me is the same, very office and day to day wear friendly. Honestly, I have been obsessing with this fragrance since I bought a bottle two weeks ago, I am thinking of buying another one because it selling out in my country. It is so good, really worth it! 🤭

I smelled this fragrence from 2 meters in a cafe in uae twice passing from that person, asked r u using baccarat rouge ? He said no but he let me see it. So far we kept talking aht perfumes n he was so generous he gifted me this gem. And till now I have wore it 3 times and people have asked each time I used it. Same as br people might be anosmic to it but to me its amazing thing from zara. Performs great 👍.

Sweet spiced oranges with a warm crystallized amber, very much 'BR540 pour Homme' vibes. This is less sweet to my nose than the Red Temptation offering, and lasts much longer too, all day. Projects strongly for the first hour or so, settles down into slightly above arms' length. Perfect for spring, autumn, and winter, much too stifling in the summer heat.

Not my colleague asking: "Why do you smell like a burned sugar?" And only thing i did i spray two times on my inner elbow, lol. This is by far one of the best performing fragrances by Zara. Even i can smell it constantly around me with just two sprays and is smells amazing too. I say buy this gem while you still can, i just ordered another bottle.

It's absolutely amazing i would say. Got it today and it smells almost identical to one of my favorites from Zara, Night Pour Homme V. It's very, very good BR540 clone and there isn't much to add. Performance is above average if not very good. This is a great value for anyone that like BR540 and that cotton candy/burned sugar type of fragrances.

This really stands out. It is alluring, sexy, mysterious, spicy and sweet. It is black lace and crimson brocade with a vintage “noir” vibe. It smells much more complex than the three notes listed above. I had never heard of evernyl. It must be the catalyst that ignites this exotic elixir. This is date night, definitely.

Why do I feel like this perfume smells more like a warm vanilla? I tested it and it smells GREAT anyway, I applied it at around 17:00, its currently 00:10 and it still smells a little, knowing that I have touched things with my hand, it’s really good, perfect scent.

Was anyone able to sample new For Him Red Edition Intense? The notes are totally different from this one so i guess it's a flanker and not the "perfume" version of this? Why is Fragrantica usually late with adding the new releases from Zara?

I just got the 3rd Bottle, is my fave fragrance to wear daily. I get a lot of compliments, the lasting is not the best but the smell is so sweet but not too strong and is the best Dupe of Baccarat Rouge 540

A mi mujer le encanta y a mi cada vez me gusta más, perfecta para citas románticas. Recuerda al olor de algodón de azúcar. En mi piel dura bien, en ropa la percibo hasta el día siguiente. Da cumplidos.

I've been through some of the Zaras juices and for me, this is the best one so far. Excellent, cozy, warm amber. Probably duped high-quality juice (BR 540). If only it lasted longer on my skin...

Baccarat Rouge clone, better than Zara Red Temptation in my opinion, it's more balanced and well rounded overall. Also perfarmances are pretty good and again ,better than Red Temptation.

It's a good fragrance to start out with on a budget. Saying this because it was my very first sweet fragrance and lots of girls complimented me on dates for it
