About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

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.

Before you buy

A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
