Habit Rouge

This 2009 iteration of Guerlain's Habit Rouge reinterprets the classic through a modern citrus-aromatic lens. The opening is brisk and bitter, with bitter orange, lime, and a sharp pinch of pink pepper. As it settles, bamboo and jasmine lend a clean, slightly green floralcy, while rose and patchouli add depth without tipping into heaviness. The base is where Habit Rouge's signature leather emerges, wrapped in vanilla, musk, and woody notes. The result is a smoother, more contemporary take on the original—less powdery, more direct. Collectors who appreciate the heritage but find vintage bottles too dense will enjoy this version's clarity. It suits men who want a versatile, office-friendly scent with a classic backbone. Best for spring and autumn days, or cool evenings. The citrus top may fade quickly on some skin, so test before committing to a full bottle. This is a solid, wearable entry in the Habit Rouge line, though purists may still prefer the original.

2009年版本嘅 Habit Rouge 以現代柑橘芳香重新演繹經典。前調係苦橙、青檸同粉紅胡椒嘅清爽苦澀；中調竹、茉莉、玫瑰同廣藿香交織出乾淨微綠花香；基調皮革、木質、雲呢拿同麝香，散發 signature 皮革氣息。整體比原版更輕盈直接，少咗粉感，適合鍾意經典但嫌舊版太厚重嘅收藏家。氣質優雅務實，適合男士日常辦公或涼爽天氣使用。注意柑橘前調喺部分人皮膚上揮發較快，建議先試香。
