The lemon yellow-orange red for the summer
The mouse won't bite a thread: the classic Habit Rouge is an absolute masterpiece. But it's more of an autumn scent and probably more suitable for men over 40 - without mentioning the words old-fashioned or old-fashioned. Interestingly enough, it is rarely noticed by the public, although it has been sold successfully since Anno tuck despite reforms. Whatever that means. Also remarkable is the fact that it is absolutely unique, because this vibe is unique and I don't know of any scented twin or double of second or third degree - apart from the Habit Rouge Flanker's own relatives.
In order to make the so-called Shalimar for Men also appealing to a younger target group (who can even correctly assign a red tuxedo nowadays?) and/or to find buyers who would like to wear HR in summer, Thierry Wasser created this "L'Eau" as a thoroughly fresher and lighter version.
You can tell right away when you spray it on that the citric to orange character is more dominant here and almost resembles a cologne. Somehow the notes alternate between the well-known green lemon from the original and a good shot of orange. One could possibly reproach that both are not only a bit "supernatural" in terms of longevity, but are by no means synthetic or even cheap. No - at Guerlain you know what is olfactory and here you make sure you feel good enough.
I think I only recognize the hazelnut in question because it officially appears in the pyramid of scents, otherwise it would have passed me by completely. I would like to meet the one who can actually locate it unknowingly in the blind test. But it doesn't matter otherwise, because the vanilla-patchouli combination typical for HR is already building up from the background. In the run-up to the test, some jasmine comes up, which gives "L'Eau" a touch of floral and seriousness as a stabilizer on the way.
At the latest when the citric mixes skillfully with the powdery, one knows that a Habit Rouge offshoot is doing the honours. Even this slightly sticky undertone has been transplanted.
What should impress every connoisseur: with "L'Eau", we have truly succeeded in creating a light-footed and noble summer variation that carries the Habit Rouge DNA within itself. Surely you would have wished for a little more projection and durability, but you just can't have everything.
