Synthetic musk done before

"Habanita L'Esprit" was launched in 2013, ten years after Narciso Rodriguez' best-selling fragrance from 2003. And to my great surprise, "Habanita L'Esprit" smells very similar to "Narciso R. Eau de Parfum". Those who know the Rogdriguez will now have an olfactory picture in their mind, those who don't will be glad to learn that "Habanita L'Esprit" has nothing to do with the old "Habanita". It's neither a "light" version of it nor can it be compared to the classic perfume by Molinard in terms of originality and impact. Yet "Habanita L'Esprit" is extremely loud, staying power is excellent and the strong musk places it in the category of those sexual heavies some people think they need to spray on to seduce the world around them. Loaded with the earthiness of patchouli, "L'Esprit" blends amber, rose and jasmine and then adds an animal note of synthetic musk to make things even "hotter". The resulting postion is musk, musk and musk - and very disappointing, because it is so close to Narciso Rodriguez who did the same thing 10 years ago (i.e. the perfumers Nagel and Kurdijan did). Worn with due discretion, this "Habanita L'Esprit" could be quite user-friendly, provided you like strong musky scents, of course. One bottle should last you a very long time.

Hot - Cold , Clean - Dirty ...40 shades in Harmony

Very sensual and beautiful.
Definitely a very Musky ,
The Musk here is not clean neither dirty , but alternating.
You feel it as a clean in the opening but during the fragrance evolves it becomes a little dirty and getting a vintage vibe Musc vibe ,
And once you feel the dirty ambers part of the scent , some clean white Musc is returning back to the nose .

It’s a Developing fragrance for sure and someone can feel most of its notes .
There is no dominant here and you have a feeling like there is a same quantity of each one note inside ,
Nothing is coming out , nothing is hidden .
They are all there , like a beautiful painting where all the shades are in balanced in a harmony .

Comparing with the OG Habanita I would say it’s a very little similarity here ,
A sharpness and ambery vintage vibe , and only .

I own and adore 3 versions of Habanita and appreciate each one in it’s different way .

For sure the Lesprit is much easer to wear and smell for even not trained noses , this makes it a very safe blind buy .

The colour of the bottle for me is not representing the scent in 100% , maybe compared with the OG it is much lighter but not as white as it is ,
I would paint a bottle in powder pink or in skin beige as a NRodrigues did as it will be the best representation for the scent ,
But still the white is not bad choose for the fragrance, Matt surface is absolutely correct and represents its velvety and powdery character.

Absolutely unisex fragrance,
On my cold skin it’s getting more cold and sharp , with an untouched skin illusion , but on a male hot skin it would open in all its warm Beaty and sexy way .
The same would happen in cold winter months and a hot summer season .
It’s an easy fragrance- don’t be afraid to blind buy .

The truly "your skin but better" experience

This one is quiet difficult to describe. I am understanding now the reviews which were dissapointed at first but they end finding it quite sexy in time!

I have the roll-on version (very good quality, the ball is metallic). From the bottle, it smells very incensy. I like darker perfumes and I am in love with Habanita. My sister, who is more into citrics and florals, said it smells intense and with the black Habanita directly she chokes, it was too strong for her xD.
The aplication is a lemony blast. It smells like floral lemons. Then, it becomes literally transparent and I can't smell anything. At all. Then, if I sniff my arm, I can smell very lighthly something incensy, like if I have washed my arm with an Habanita soap and thats is what it remains. I was going to came here to rave. It was literally your skin but better, like if you werent wearing any perfume, just your recent washed skin. Sincerily I wasnt seeing the point of such a subtle perfume having the main version.

Then, a subtle but noticeable cloud of incense was around my arm. In this stage it last some more time and I think is their algid point. The Incense became more noticeable but it is always more your skin that emanates this misterious smell. Is a floral and very nice incense. My sister smelled my arm and she was very surprised, she loved it and couldnt believe it was the roll-on version because it smells strong to her! It is strange but although my fav snell is the sdxy dark conclnctuon, I can feel more sexy in this one because it is more misterious the effect of your skin, the og is in your face being misterious, like you are acting very femme-fatale on purpose, when this one is more sensual subtle.

In time it becomes soapier, like a white floral musky jasmin cream or something. I don't know where, but O swear is a very familiar smell to me and at the same time misterious. It is a little like a skin care cream, a little lemon cake, very clean musky floral. The colour of the bottle and the name are perfect. The smell is like Habanita, but she is white now, even transparent, like an spirit. I still prefer the black big sister, but this one is more versatile.

The dignity and sensuality of chypre

The greatest appeal of this fragrance lies in how it elevates the original's smoky notes to a surprisingly airy, light, and modern texture. The biggest change lies in its olfactory structure, shifting from the depth typical of orientals to the dignified elegance of chypres. While the original Habanita evokes the passion of an intimate evening social gathering, L'Esprit evokes a more refined, modern sensuality. Its greatest feature is the way in which it expresses its sensuality. Unlike the original, which evokes the lingering, mysterious sensuality of tobacco and leather, the entire fragrance is enveloped in a smooth, limpid expression. This exquisite balance endows the wearer with a contemporary intellectual aura. It enjoys a classic style while simultaneously conveying a feminine impression. It is truly a sensual chypre fragrance dedicated to the modern woman who wears legend with ease.

The Moaning Virgin

First of all - I’m not really an over-the-top fan when it comes to musk.
But here I must yield and let my heart speak:
The scent is a sensory seduction that spreads freshly washed, white sheets across my soul.
The sheets pretend to be pure and untainted. A feeling of purity that simply washes away all the sins and shames of the past years. With lots of scrubbing and tons of foam.
However, Habanita L'Esprit is, over time, not a purity decree of white angels, but rather a bubble bath with the devil, with whom one sips champagne and listens to rock music. The devil nests in many and wins over the pure souls for himself. Because Habanita's white sister is not the tamest and most virginal as she pretends to be.

In my opinion, L'Esprit has not much in common with the big dark sister. But it does not fall short in any way. The white scent reveals itself to be a truly hot weapon that sends a sinful army of pink clouds over the heads of those around me. The clouds indeed spew quite a bit of love, lust, and passion.

At first, the scent appears slightly citrusy, spicy, and powdery. A gentle hint of makeup, on a woman who has seemed dusty for years. Many said it was old-fashioned. The beginning may not please everyone, but after a short while, a multifaceted landscape unfolds, already holding the first white sheets ready. The musk soon comes rushing in. Pure and bright. But then again, there’s a sharp curve, and it slips partly into the dirty. A spicy ambiance bursts forth, mixing in. This works extremely well. Heliotrope in its finest form. Blooming, caressing. Moreover, it becomes noticeably more powdery. The dusty woman seems to awaken from her stupor. A touch of freshness blows through her hair. She applies bright red lipstick, reveling in her figure in the mirror. She hasn’t felt this sexy in a long time. She glides her fingers over her skin, letting the scent quiver with every touch and rise from her head. The room is filled, on one hand with a decree of purity, on the other hand, a deep, passionate desire hangs in the air. It becomes slightly sultry. The musk sinks briefly, allowing dirty tones to speak for themselves. She smiles, running her delicate, long fingers over her now full lips. A moan flows through the room. One that feels liberating and free. As if she had waited years for this moment. The now moaning virgin. She has long rolled off the dust as if it had never been there. She lights a cigarette, blowing the smoke into the room instead of into her lungs.
Resinous tones slowly envelop her senses. Softly golden, mixing in with the other components. In doing so, one repeatedly catches animalistic traits. The powder has heavenly, sensualized everything. It’s simply divine!

She closes her eyes. Lets the scent caress her body. The white sheets in her soul are long soiled, even if they initially presented themselves as quite clean. But that doesn’t seem to bother, as the clearly dirtier variant is also well received. She is going to let loose today!

A scent that is pure, but also dirty. Yes, that is indeed possible! Immerse yourselves in it. Let it work on you for a long time. You will see that on one hand, it plays the saint, while on the other hand, it always lets the devil speak from the deepest point of its soul. Interesting and extremely pleasing. Among my acquaintances and friends, it was extremely well received, and I haven’t received so many compliments about a scent in a long time as I have for L'Esprit.

Moreover, it lasts significantly long on me and woos me with its refined nature, which makes me extremely attractive. The bottle is very beautifully crafted and radiates a certain calm, but once you let the spirit out of the bottle, you will find out otherwise. It’s not just about calm. It’s much more about desire.
