Oakcha Sweven - 100 mL
The 100 mL Oakcha Sweven is the full-size format of the brand's flagship Baccarat Rouge 540 alternative — officially labeled "Inspired by: MFK's Baccarat Rouge 540" and sharing saffron and jasmine with the original's published opening, at $80.95 against the $300 retail price Oakcha itself cites for the original.
In short: Sweven is Oakcha's direct, single-target interpretation of Baccarat Rouge 540, sharing its two signature top notes on paper. It is an independent extrait, not the original, and our editorial similarity assessment lands at 7/10.

What Is Oakcha Sweven 100 mL a Dupe For?
Sweven is the fragrance Oakcha built its reputation on, and this 100 mL bottle is its full-size format. The brand's product page states the reference outright: "Inspired by: MFK's Baccarat Rouge 540 (Retail price: $300)." Unlike Oakcha's remix-style releases, Sweven is a single-target interpretation — the US extrait house's direct answer to one of the most famous luxury fragrances of the modern era, at $80.95 for 100 mL versus the $300 the brand itself quotes for the original.
The usual disclosure applies: Sweven is an independent fragrance from an independent brand. It is not made by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, and the inspired-by framing is Oakcha's own.
Which Notes Do Sweven and Baccarat Rouge 540 Share?
Oakcha publishes Sweven's pyramid: jasmine, saffron, orange, and marigold on top; ambroxan and evernyl in the heart; cedarwood, ambergris, and fir balsam in the base. The publicly documented Baccarat Rouge 540 pyramid runs saffron and jasmine up top, amberwood and ambergris through the heart, and fir resin and cedar in the base.
The computed overlap lands on the two notes that define the original's opening: saffron and jasmine — both present in Sweven's top. Beyond the strict name-match, the published lists run visibly parallel: Sweven's ambergris, cedarwood, and fir balsam sit next to the original's ambergris, cedar, and fir resin in kind, and its ambroxan heart chases the same radiant-amber effect the original gets from amberwood. That structural echo is why Refinery29's editorial review of Oakcha's inspired-by lineup singled the brand out, and why Sweven carries an established Fragrantica entry of its own.
How Similar Is It, Really?
Our editorial similarity assessment is 7/10 — the ceiling for this pairing on our data. It is supported by three things: Oakcha's explicit official positioning, a computed shared-note overlap covering the original's two signature top notes (roughly 22% of the combined lists), and independent editorial coverage. What keeps it from higher: the strict overlap is still two notes, Sweven adds its own orange-marigold brightness, and extrait concentration alone changes how the scent wears against the original eau de parfum. Expect the same luminous saffron-amber direction with Oakcha's denser, longer-wearing treatment — not an indistinguishable experience.
Who Is It For?
Sweven 100 mL suits the buyer who loves the Baccarat Rouge 540 style — sweet saffron over glowing woody amber — and wants it as an affordable daily signature rather than a special-occasion luxury. At $80.95 for 100 mL of extrait, it is priced for unapologetic everyday use. If your attachment is to the exact experience of the original — its precise radiance and the way it develops on skin — only the original delivers that; Sweven offers the brand's own denser interpretation of the same direction. First-time buyers may prefer Oakcha's smaller Sweven formats before committing to the big bottle.

What is Oakcha Sweven a dupe for?
Oakcha's own product page labels Sweven "Inspired by: MFK's Baccarat Rouge 540" and cites the original's $300 retail price alongside. It is the brand's direct, single-target interpretation — an independent fragrance, not a copy.
Does Sweven smell like Baccarat Rouge 540?
The published pyramids share the original's two signature top notes, saffron and jasmine, and both scents finish on ambery, woody bases of the same kind — ambergris, cedar-family woods, fir resins. The community and editorial consensus treats Sweven as one of the closer affordable takes, though its extrait density and added orange-marigold brightness read as Oakcha's own.
