Renier Perfumes Habana 500 is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Daniel Josier. Habana 500 opens with Sea Water, Apple, and Mint, settles into a heart of Milk, Leather, Amber, and Cedar, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Ambergris. Renier Perfumes's Habana 500 carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

A truly divisive coffee-forward scent. Some find it a masterpiece, a rich Cuban experience, while others dismiss it as generic and overpriced. Expect strong performance and an intriguing, if polarizing, olfactory journey.

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 Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage make it a bit much for close-quarters office wear. The rich, warm coffee and leather notes lend themselves beautifully to evening dates and casual autumn days, but it might be too unique for formal settings and certainly too heavy for sport.

About

Habana 500 opens with a surprising splash of cool sea water, crisp green apple, and a hint of refreshing mint, quickly transitioning into its heart. Here, a creamy milk accord mingles with dark, aromatic coffee, softened by amber and grounded by the earthy robustness of leather and cedar. The dry-down settles into a warm, sensual base of musk, smooth sandalwood, and a lingering touch of marine ambergris, creating a complex and ever-evolving scent profile.
