The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011 by Guerlain and crafted by perfumer Thierry Wasser, Habit Rouge L'Eau is an Oriental fragrance that balances crisp citrus with rich vanilla and woody notes. The composition opens with a fresh and green top note, giving way to a heart of white florals and nutty accents before settling into a warm base of patchouli and vanilla. This scent embodies the house's tradition of using luxurious materials while maintaining an innovative edge.
One spray is sufficient for Habit Rouge L'Eau to build its warmth throughout the day. The fresh top notes are fleeting, so the woody and vanilla base will carry you through the later hours without overpowering.
