Habit Rouge Dress Code by Guerlain Review

Flankers are rarely compared favorably to the original scent, and Habit Rouge Dress Code suffers from the same fate. While it has a beautiful citrusy floral opening, it does not maintain the momentum as the fragrance further develops. Along the way, it becomes cloying to us and old-fashioned, which makes us yearn for the drydown that is refined by comparison. It has moderate sillage and good performance, but this is honestly not what we would imagine to be worth adding to the collection.
