Blessed Baraka is Initio’s unisex eau de parfum, with white flowers, amber, sandalwood, vanilla and musk in the maker’s main notes. It offers an ambery, woody and musky direction rather than BR540’s saffron-and-jasmine profile. Try a sample if powdery sandalwood and sweet amber appeal to you.

Great for

How It Compares
vs. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540
Blessed Baraka is an Initio fragrance, not an ALT. BR540 interpretation. Its white flowers, sandalwood, amber, vanilla and musk differ from BR540 EDP’s jasmine, saffron, ambergris accord and dry woods.
