Before you buy
From a 90% community match (middle value of every % people gave or implied) and what people say
Overlap: People rate these 80% alike or more, so owning both is likely to feel redundant.
Sample first? Sample Amber Oud Ruby Edition first. If it works on your skin, you may not need Baccarat Rouge 540.

Worth it ???? Alharamain Amber Oud Ruby Edition | Clone for Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait de Parfum (comment) (opens in a new tab)It's okay but doesn't really compare to the real deal, has an alcohol smell, you might as well save for a small $200 bottle of the original

AMBER OUD RUBY EDITION BY AL HARAMAIN REVIEW | INCREDIBLE BR540 EXTRAIT CLONE! (comment) (opens in a new tab)The ruby edition smells like pure alcohol

AMBER OUD RUBY EDITION BY AL HARAMAIN REVIEW | INCREDIBLE BR540 EXTRAIT CLONE! (comment) (opens in a new tab)yes it is similar, but there is something in there that does 2 things. Smells like BO on my skin after it dries down

12+ Hour Beast Mode Clone - Al Haramain Amber Oud Ruby Edition Review (comment) (opens in a new tab)As someone who owns both BKR 540 ex & Al Haramain Amber oud. I can say boldly that the DNA of Haramain is literally 98% the same as the original but BKR 540 definitely out performs the clone.
What people say about their own bottles, not a guarantee. Batches vary, so test on skin before you buy.
