The scent is indeed very light and fresh, reminiscent of watery flowers and tart berries. As it starts to unfold, a slight sharpness of ginger and a dry woody nuance are felt on the skin. This creates an interesting combination that pleasantly surprises ))))
A completely different fragrance than before. One would think this should be good news, but alas, it's a disappointment. The scent is too chemical and flat. I expected to catch notes of green tea, but instead, it's just a fruity scent, and nothing else
The red-capped bottle shown here is, essentially, a failed attempt, the result of numerous changes, reforms, and IFRA restrictions. Product cost-cutting, no matter how you look at it, also played a role. I have several bottles of Habit Rouge EDT from early releases, as well as later versions, for example, from 2000 and 2011. There's also a vintage cologne, but that's another story. Even the 2011 EDT smells better than the one with the red cap. Previously, the fragrance was a true masterpiece: it started with citrus notes that quickly transitioned into a warm woody-spicy sound. It's hard to break it down into notes, but vanilla and sandalwood were clearly felt, as well as light hints of leather and amber. Rose added a lipsticky quality that appeared in warmer weather, but I prefer to wear Habit Rouge in cooler temperatures. Although it's also good in summer, despite its lipstickiness. Now, the fragrance has changed dramatically. Sandalwood is still felt in the base, but it's not what it used to be. Despite its brightness and a certain languidness, Habit Rouge, even in EDT, seems rougher compared to the cologne, though more lasting. Nevertheless, it remains an example of sophistication and elegance. True France in a bottle from the great Jean-Paul!
Incense in perfumery always makes me wary, it's just too unusual. Here, it's certainly noticeable, but the fragrance as a whole isn't bad. Honestly though, it's not really for me
Unfortunately, I can't recall the classic fragrance. This one really didn't impress me at all. Aldehydes with grass and narcissus. Very tart. There's a powdery quality, but it's not for me. The longevity is good, of course
Vanilla clearly dominates here, spices add interest, but musk is faintly perceptible. Suede? I didn't notice it at all, even when I tried. Overall, it's just a vanilla scent, nothing special 😒
Peaches, as if from jam, with chalk. The opening of the fragrance is truly impressive, but then I tormented myself for a long time for not buying it. Although, on the other hand, the fragrance had time to develop on the skin, but the base turned out to be quite monotonous and unexpressive

The price, of course, is just awful. )
This fragrance developed completely differently on me than I expected. I can't say I liked it, but I wouldn't call it repulsive either. Maybe you'll have better luck than me. Give it a try, maybe it'l...
