As the first amber fragrance to be created for men, Habit Rouge was inspired by equestrianism, the pastime that was dear to its creator, Jean-Paul Guerlain. First released in 1965, Habit Rouge’s woody, spicy fragrance enveloped with round vanilla became an olfactory symbol of French elegance.
Top: Rum, Bergamot
Heart: Vanilla
Base: Patchouli, Bourbon Vanilla
Taking its inspiration from the bold intensity of bourbon, Habit Rouge Le Parfum opens with the rich tonalities of a rum accord, followed perfectly with Guerlain’s unique vanilla tincture that is made according to its own special in-house process. Set alongside patchouli, it’s this vanilla tincture that lends Habit Rouge’s signature its unparalleled depth.
