The Oriental-woody scent of Habit Rouge by the perfume and cosmetic brand Guerlain was created in 1965 and has not lost its popularity to this day, further confirming the immortality of classics that remain relevant at all times.
Habit Rouge is one of the first Oriental fragrances for men, dedicated to the art of equestrian sports, specifically to riders who wore elegant red jackets, which is reflected in the name of the perfume itself.
The composition of the fragrance can be described as dynamic, passionate, and bold. The top notes include fresh, yet slightly bitter tones of basil, lemon, bergamot, orange, and rosewood, which are softened by a complex heart of spices and flowers. The heart notes comprise: clove, sandalwood, patchouli, cinnamon, jasmine, cedar, and rose. The base is made of labdanum, leather, amber, and oakmoss, warmed by soft tones of benzoin and vanilla.
Thanks to its modern geometry and simplicity of form, the Habit Rouge bottle possesses a special French allure.
I was worried that I wouldn't like the scent since I always order randomly. But no, the smell is pleasant, although not as diverse as I expected. I will see how it develops further since I just received it today. It strongly reminds me of Shalimar, but in a stronger version with a tire-like aroma that lingers for a long time, and then a vintage powder scent appears, which I really like. However, I ordered it for my husband and he hasn't tried it yet, but in my opinion, the perfume is closer to a women's fragrance.
Finally, it's a masculine fragrance. Very beautiful, with an old-school charm, created by Jean-Paul Guerlain. The sillage is more on the moderate side, it wears well and lasts a long time without bothering those around you. Such a masterpiece at such a pleasant price is simply a stroke of luck for perfume enthusiasts.
My retro man, I adore you! At first, you are powdery, simply stunning... Then you become gentle, slightly sweet - transforming into lipstick. Specifically, red lipstick. The scent is pure sex. I love you. ❤
The fragrance is stunning. Saying that I liked it would be an understatement. However, in order to fully appreciate it, one must love classic scents with complex compositions. It's neither too fresh nor too overpowering. Juicy lemon combined with rose, vanilla, and creamy sandalwood. The perfect option for a suit. In terms of scent, it leans towards unisex, but it cannot be called feminine despite the presence of vanilla. It is for a man who feels comfortable in a tuxedo or a three-piece suit.
