Habit Rouge: A strong man in contact with nature
Inspired by the equestrian world, this is an oriental and citrus fragrance, initially designed by Jean-Paul Guerlain. To see the appearance of a first more tangy revisit of its scent, it was not until 1967. Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum, meanwhile, is the second edition of the saga, born in 2003. With it, the traditional scent of Habit Rouge is illuminated with neroli, while its woody trail gains in refinement by the presence of oud wood.
Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum, a tribute to the equestrian world
To better understand the universe and the style of this perfume, we need to delve into the history of the Guerlain family. Indeed, the latter has always been infinitely attracted by the equestrian world. All of the brand's famous perfumers, and in particular Jean-Paul Guerlain, were experienced riders and trainers. This is where Habit Rouge draws its source of inspiration. This juice refers to the art of dressage, show jumping riders or hunters with hounds, on horses. It is precisely from their attire that it gets its name, like "the furtive appearance of the strident red of the tunic of a man whose energetic hand gripped the reins of a thoroughbred". Even more than its predecessor, and given the luxurious ingredients it contains,
Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum, an oriental and racy fragrance
In terms of olfactory composition, Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum turns out to be even more exciting and daring than its predecessors. It is distinguished by a wake endowed with extreme sensuality. Alternately refreshing, warm, oriental or vanilla, it creates surprises throughout its discovery. It begins first with a fresh note of bitter orange. Then, its heart becomes more spicy, while lighting up with neroli and jasmine. The leather reinforces the animality of this composition, while combining with more amber notes and vanilla. For a more chic and distinguished effect, an oud wood accord sublimates the whole.
The timeless refinement of the Guerlain bottle
Since this perfume is designed for a refined man, its bottle displays absolute rigor and purity. This one remains identical to its elder. It is still a thick glass rectangle, the edges of which are finely carved. A space is also provided to carry its red label in its center. On it, his name is inscribed in all sobriety, in a very couture spirit. Since 2016, the Habit Rouge bottle has also been topped with a wooden cap. This one is also tinted in red, while overlooking a more contemporary metal ring. Modern, geometric and rigorous, the Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum bottle is a testament to the timeless French elegance according to Guerlain.
