Habit Rouge

The first men’s oriental, chic and timeless.

Habit Rouge was created in 1965 by Jean-Paul Guerlain, grandson of Jacques Guerlain. It is considered one of the first oriental fragrances for men.

Its name refers to the red coat worn by riders in hunting with hounds: Jean-Paul Guerlain, a passionate horseman, wanted a fragrance in the image of an elegant, self-assured man. Citrus brightens the opening, rose and cinnamon form the heart, and vanilla, leather and benzoin leave a warm trail, in the tradition of the Guerlinade.

More than sixty years after its creation, Habit Rouge remains one of the great classics of men’s perfumery.
