Habanita

Molinard Habanita is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. The fragrance opens with Geranium, Petitgrain, and Mastic, settles into a heart of Taif Rose, Jasmine, Mimosa, and Vetiver, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Musk.

Our verdict on Habanita: Acquired

A legendary, polarising beast for those who dare, Habanita delivers a heavy hit of dark, powdery florals. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it, really love it. Just beware of reformulations - true fans seek out the older batches.

About

Habanita unfurls with an unusual, almost medicinal greenness from mastic and petitgrain, quickly yielding to a lavish bloom of Taif rose, jasmine, and mimosa, underscored by nutty heliotrope and exotic ylang-ylang. The heart is a complex dance of sweet, spicy florals and earthy vetiver, culminating in a deeply resonant drydown of powdery vanilla, rich sandalwood, and dark patchouli with a hint of smoky oakmoss and musk. It’s a bold, woody-powdery aromatic statement.
