The greatest bergamot. Lesther base straight away. Then comes a dark vanilla and patchouli, ending metallic-fougère-like.

A phenomenal scent. Close to the original EdT. More rounded, slightly more transparent, higher quality citrus and neroli notes. Excellent.

The best flanker?
Oh how I eagerly embraced the new Habit Rouge - Rouge Prive, and I must say, it has left a profound impression on me. The fragrance opens with an exhilarating burst of bergamot, reminiscent of sun-kissed citrus groves, instantly awakening the senses with its refreshing and invigorating aura. The bergamot plays like an orchestra conductor, setting the stage for the symphony of scents to come.

As the fragrance evolves, the heart notes take center stage, where a beautifully tanned leather accord steals the spotlight. This luxurious leather note exudes a subtle yet captivating sensuality, akin to the allure of a well-worn leather jacket that evokes a sense of confidence and sophistication. It wraps around you like a second skin, adding a distinct character to the composition.

And then, as the hours pass, the recognizable Guerlain vanilla emerges in the base notes, weaving its enchanting spell. This signature note is a masterful blend of sweetness and warmth, like a velvety embrace that envelopes you in a comforting and irresistible aura. It's not cloying but rather harmonizes perfectly with the previous notes, creating a sense of harmonious balance that is a true testament to the artistry of Guerlain perfumers.

Habit Rouge - Rouge Prive, stands out among other flankers with its ability to combine familiar Guerlain DNA with a unique and intriguing twist. The interplay of bergamot, tanned leather, and aformentioned Guerlains famous vanilla is a symphony of harmonious notes, each taking its turn to shine while complementing one another flawlessly. The longevity and sillage are commendable, allowing the fragrance to accompany you throughout the day, making it perfect for special occasions or even daily wear for those who appreciate refined elegance.

Masterful Flankery
This is a masterful reworking of Habit Rouge that has exceeded my expectations, it's simply a 10/10 fragrance!

I love the original HR edt, but there is no denying it can at times feel from another age, and require a particular mood and effort to confidently flaunt its dandy powdered citrus and rose.
Rouge Prive stays true to the original in smell and structure, but does so in a way that makes the wear effortless and imbues confidence, rather than demanding confidence.

Essentially, the hazy powdered filter has been toned down and detailed clarity conferred to the individual notes which gives a modern sheen to the composition.
Additionally, the Guerlinade vanilla has been amplified and aspects of the delicious HR Dress Code included, the leather is slightly amplified and modernized which gives a more masculine edge, and the drydown shines with a crystalline airy clean patchouli, almost boozy spirit vapor like, which made me think STHE. Finally the molecules themselves feel higher quality and have a particular fullness and richness that is just outstanding.

A perfect flanker that in my opinion improves the original.

A scent for a gentleman
A PRIVATE EDITION DESIGNED AS AN EXCEPTIONAL CUVÉE

I do believe it is slightly too expensive for what it should be, around 100 USD/€/GBP for the 100ml it should be a fair price for such a high quality scent, anything above that is too much.

I do not own the older Habit Rouge versions, but I do not remember such a beautiful and power leather note like in this one, which I like very much. So this bottle will stay into my collection.

I can only speak about it for the few days since I have tried it for the first time and I can say that I like it and I am still impressed by the move of Guerlain to release two Limited Editions in the same time, luckliy for them, both being good.

The Rouge Privé is very special and reminds me right away about a well dressed man, a gentleman if you want .. and this is not the typical lemon/bergamotte strong smell like the Acqua di Parma or the high on Sandalwood like the British direction .. this is very french in my opinion and it´s very original.

I was not the biggest fan of the Habit Rouge before, it gave me too much of an old man vibe .. but now, with this strong high quality leather note added to the mix, it smells stronger on the skin than on my clothes.

This precious Rouge Privé edition is a tribute by Guerlain Perfumers to the first amber fragrance for men, this new opus reinvents its mythical accord of patchouli, vanilla and leather in a more sensual, more intense blend. Notes of tanned leather mingle with the warmth of vanilla and bewitching patchouli to reveal an exceptional interpretation of Habit Rouge.

You can see my enthusiasm more in the video, thank you for watching.

A beautifully recreation of a classic profile scent .
Fantastic, this novelty is so many things at the same time. It's vintage but it's modern, it's heavy but it's fresh, it's bright on one hand but also heavy, dark. One of the most pleasant surprises that I remember since I started collecting about 2 years ago. I'm going to explain my impression, clarifying first that with 2 years of collector I consider myself barely an enthusiast, and as proof of that I confess I never smelled Habit Rouge in its previous versions, clarifying this: it has a clearly classic, vintage, citric output, like a cologne that I imagine it is the classic HR gene. And what I suppose is the novelty is the mixture with leather and vanilla, but above all the exquisite leather that is felt from its opening, rough but also light, present but without letting it take more prominence than the bergamot, orange blossom, ginger. This magnificent composition makes it a versatile perfume in my opinion, which can be used for work in almost all seasons, except for summer, but also for a dinner or night out and elgantly dressed.
It would recommend not to buy blindly, but I would ensure that this is a future classic gem. Its performance does not disappoint, 6 to 8 hours, but the sillage it leaves behind is beastly. I don't usually get "compliments", but the second time I used it, 8 sprays, a colleague felt it before entering my office.
If I had to refer to something I know, it would be Aqua di Parma Leather, with the difference that in the ADP the leather is much rougher and the citrus fruits of the cologne are very much in the background, with HR being more balanced in that aspect.
As the icing on the cake, I paid less than 100 dollars at the exchange rate in Argentina, which seems like a more than reasonable price to me.
Beautiful beatiful parfume. I love him.

Class in a bottle
At the beginning of my fragrance journey I stumled upon Habit Rouge EDT and found it very oldschool and oldmanish and did not change my opinion ever since. That fragrance just does not do it for me.

I took a gamble and bought Rouge Privé and what a nice surprise it was! If I should make a change to the note pyramid, it would be moving the leather to the middle notes. Opening is very nice citrus with ginger and it lasts almost an hour. After that I already start to pick up nicely done and quite promiment leather with hints of iris and orange blossom. Drydown comes in about 2 hours time after application and you get the famous harmonic guerlinade in all its beauty. At this stage it starts to sit close the to skin, but lasts for another 6+ hours. This is how transitions in a fragrance should be made. It never feels like a loud fragrance but I believe it was never ment to be like that. This is classy fragrance for a confident and well dressed gentleman doing his own thing, who does not need to anounce his entrence with his fragrance.

Except the hot sunny days it can serve you throughout the whole year and it can get you covered on multiple occasions. Even though I decided to not keep this fragrance in my collection, I really appreciate the quality and masterful blend achieved and rate it 8,5/10! Maybe I will purchase it again in the near future as I found the smell kind of addicting as it made me comming back to it quite often during my testing. I highly recommend to sample it to anybody that find the notes listed interesting.

8.1.2024 update: I had to buy it again and now it probably stays in the collection :)
