The initial notes of the fragrance are created from the bitter notes of saffron and its intimately caressing, even metallic echoes, smoothly sweet jasmine and majestic amber.

A soft woody shade is imparted by cedar together with the resinous scent of fir, to which again the honey reflections of velvety amber can be heard.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Baccarat Rouge 540 perfume was the inspiration for the Marque Collection 169 fragrance.
