    The Guerlains listed are certainly some of their more popular. The modern formulation of their Vetiver is, IMHO, but a shell of its former self. It is soapy and the vetiver is not the star. Jicky is actually marketed as a feminine, though I can't imagine why. It opens with a huge blast of civet before it settles into a lavender. I find the opening a bit overpowering, but in the end this is a nice scent. Their Mouchoir du Monsieur is the "men's" version of Jicky. It's definitely one to be familiar with. A very old school, but very gentlemanly lavender scent. Habit Rouge is an amazing classic scent. The leather and vanilla in it is smooth and refined. If you're really looking to indulge, though, find a bottle of the EdP strength of the Habit Rouge. Of those you've listed from Guerlain, that is my favorite fragrance!
