Nice with another name
I have the pleasure to try this scent as we speak and I can say that with another name, maybe it would have been better received.

It starts citrussy, followed by a bit of sweetness from the mathe tea and the rose and then it becomes an unidentified mix of smells, like many designers.

Habit Rouge is one of the most famous line from GUERLAIN, having the EDT and EDP but so far no flankers, to the original. When Guerlain announced this I was curious to see how would they understand the HR DNA in 2022 and add some modernity to it.

Well, I would say that this release has not one single thing for what smell regards to the original ones, apart from the name, I see 0 similarity to the EDT/EDP. Given that it tries to gain attention using the Habit Rouge name, it has big shoes to fill in and unfortunately I think it fails to do that.

This one is a nice, pleasant and summery type of smell .. with lots of potential but not power, unfortunately. I had to spray 5-6 times to get a glimpse of what this smells like and in about one hour, was already a very close to the skin scent.

For somebody who likes understated scents and has a professional environment where bold/loud perfumes are not appreciated, this would be a nice versatile purchase.

After around 10 minutes, it reminds me a bit of ROJA Oligarch, but not as in they smell similar .. but something about it, reminds me remotely of ROJA.

It has literally 0 projection and even the newest batches of Aventus/Reflection Man are stronger, as a comparison.

I think it´s a good addition to their line, but it´s nothing more than a summer hit like many other .. most likely until Dec. 2022 noboy will evern know it existed, but time will tell.

Thanks for reading the review, enjoy my video.

has more backing and distinction of which i struggle to find in mens colognes of this easy-to-imagine citrus/spice composition.

In its aquatics/marineness I find a distant similarity to Blue de Chanel, but as in a relatively bad aproximation to it. Don't like it.
