Habit Rouge Parfum Guerlain 2024

HOORAY! A new flanker from Habit Rouge. Actually, I have liked all the flankers so far (except L'Instinct, this Alesia among the Habits) better than the very pithy/masculine Ur-HR, which also has exactly the Shalimar vibes that I don't like. But the Privé, which comes a little closer to the Extrait that I love and admire, and the Dress Code, which unfortunately died again, were so perfect that I bought them myself and recommended them to everyone else.
It was rumored in advance that HR "Parfum" was the resurrection of the Dress Code, but that's not entirely true. There are definitely similar phases in the development, both are more gourmand than all the others, the leather is very soft and light in both (but also in the extrait), both are very long-lasting.
But where the Dress Code is based on nougat praline, the HRP is based more on high-quality cocoa with rum and spices.
Dark cocoa was also what enchanted me in the early L'instant Homme EdP - the first formulation. It does so even more here.
I hope it stays. Otherwise, the only thing to do is stock up, otherwise it will only get more expensive afterwards, as is so common these days..
Staying power, by the way: like on Viagra.
