Nahema Eau de Parfum

Nahema Eau de Parfum by Guerlain unfolds as a dramatic, opulent rose with a complex tapestry of green stems, juicy peach, and sweetly earthy base notes. The opening is intensely green and fresh, with passionfruit and hyacinth creating a bold, almost medicinal impression—some find this harsh or buzzy, particularly at first. As it settles, the fragrance softens into a lush, velvety rose that feels both romantic and gothic, with a subtle spicy warmth and barely there sweetness. The drydown reveals a warm sandalwood and patchouli core, grounding the scent with a soft, powdery depth reminiscent of old textiles or vintage perfume. Performance is variable but largely commendable—most users report moderate to long longevity, with some noting fade after two hours, despite the fact that the scent lingers faintly for up to 15 hours on certain skin types. It is a highly personal, deeply emotional scent that attracts attention even if it's not immediately familiar. Some find it indistinguishable from classic Guerlain elegance, while others perceive it as modern, slightly sweet, and gourmand-leaning. The green and fruity top notes fade quickly, making the experience feel more ambiguous than classic soliflôres. It offers a long, elegant, and introspective journey through dreamlike floral terrain.
