Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum

This isn't just a perfume, it's a statement. Habit Rouge EDP is a love-it-or-hate-it classic, lauded for its sophisticated, timeless appeal but dismissed by some as dated or overly feminine. It's truly a journey for the senses, but not for the faint-hearted.

Our Verdict - Vanille Insensée Eau de Parfum

This isn't your average fluffy vanilla. Vanille Insensée is a dry, woody take that's pretty divisive. Expect anything from 'sexy' to 'bug spray' or 'cat pee' - sample before committing, because it's certainly not a crowd-pleaser for everyone.

Season and Occasion Fit

Habit Rouge Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its potent, evolving nature, with prominent rose and leather notes, makes it less suited for an office setting where subtlety is often key. However, its sophisticated and elegant character, often described as 'classy' and 'gentlemanly', makes it ideal for formal events and romantic dates. The 'love-it-or-hate-it' nature means it can be polarising, so choose your informal settings carefully.

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office

Its moderate sillage and non-gourmand vanilla profile make it suitable for office and casual wear, as it's not overly intrusive. For dates, its sensual, mysterious drydown could be appealing, but it's less suited to formal events due to its unique, earthy character. It's too heavy for sport.
