Molinard Habanita Eau de Parfum has a unique history. It was first used to flavour elite Havana cigars, and only later, the fragrance gained popularity among women as a complement to their image. Its oriental composition won the hearts of many, embodying luxury, mystery, and irresistible appeal.
The olfactory pyramid of Molinard Habanita Eau de Parfum:
Top notes open the composition with delicate geranium, resinous mastic tree, and sparkling petitgrain nuances.
Heart notes create a gorgeous bouquet of floral shades, complemented by woody cedar and earthy nutmeg undertones.
Base notes are woven from marine ambergris, grassy oak moss, refreshing musk, and smoky patchouli framed by warm sandal, and sensual vanilla motifs.
Iya left the most accurate and only description, and I completely agree with her comment about the fragrance. I would just like to add that Habanita is indeed a very beautiful fragrance, deep, interesting, with a perfectly structured pyramid and a unique combination of notes. However, for me, it is absolutely unbearable. The vintage feel in the fragrance is overwhelming – it's like wearing a museum dress from the time of Louis and going to work in the office. Unfortunately, that's how it is – the fragrance is beautiful, but morally outdated. It's very heavy to wear, adding years, decades, "cobwebs," "centuries-old dust," and "antiquity" to the whole image. I got a miniature for my collection, but that's all. By the way, the large bottle is incredibly beautiful, that's true.
HABANITA can be described with one powerful expression: Ramamba-Hara-Mamburu. The new flanker differs slightly from the original fragrance from the 1920s. However, the composition has not been distorted, but rather refined and surprisingly infused with vintage vibes.
This balsamic perfume has a bright tone of mastic wood, which adds a touch of mystique to the scent, reminiscent of a nighttime cemetery. The sweet essence of styrax effortlessly flirts with the lightness of orange blossom and a hint of laurel oil, further confirming the balsamic nature of the composition.
Ylang-ylang and oakmoss beautifully intertwine in the trail, giving HABANITA an elegant powdery feel. The unique sound is enhanced by the persistent heliotrope, surrounded by musky iris root and the bitterness of Egyptian jasmine with woody and mossy undertones, which add depth to the overall aroma.
The sweet bitterness takes on a solo role in this composition.
Delicious, sweet East. Not vulgar, not gourmet. For me, it is the epitome of sweet East. I bought it without testing, and I am thrilled. I thank Makeup for the opportunity to buy such masterpieces at affordable prices.
And, of course, 5 stars for the fragrance composition and the store's performance.
