Molinard Habanita Exclusive Edition is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Habanita Exclusive Edition opens with Mastic, Petitgrain, Geranium, and Ylang-Ylang, settles into a heart of Cedar, Vetiver, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Molinard's Habanita Exclusive Edition carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This "Exclusive Edition" is a bit of a cheek, isn't it? It's the same Habanita EDP in a less interesting bottle, and the faff about it being distinct has caused quite a stir amongst fans. Don't fall for the marketing ploy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall
Also Works:
Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, woody-powdery profile and strong character make it less suitable for casual or office wear, but excellent for formal events and dates. While not explicitly mentioned in reviews, the robust nature of Habanita generally signals it's not a 'sporty' scent.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Eugenol from Nutmeg
  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine a sophisticated cloud of powder, warm and enveloping. It opens with a flash of green geranium and aromatic mastic before settling into a gorgeous heart of golden florals like mimosa and ylang-ylang, grounded by earthy vetiver and cedar. The base is an intoxicating blend of creamy sandalwood, rich amber, and deep patchouli, all softened by a gentle, comforting vanilla.
