The story behind the bottle.
Jean-Paul Guerlain introduced Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum in 2003 as a bold and sophisticated statement within the Guerlain repertoire. This fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic accord, featuring lemon, bergamot, and basil, which cuts through with an unexpected freshness. As it unfolds, warm spices like cinnamon and vanilla emerge, blending seamlessly into a rich woody base of sandalwood, cedar, and agarwood (oud). The composition is both crisp and enveloping, capturing the essence of modern elegance.
Apply Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum to pulse points for a balanced experience. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, making way for the warm, enveloping base that develops over time. For best results, layer it on dry skin and avoid excessive rubbing.
