Feel elegant while wearing this. Modern and clean smell scent.

I totally agree with FireFlySF’s review
Dahlia Divin Nude is indeed pretty.I can feel that it belongs to the Dahlia Divin family,but while Nectar is syrupy sweet and heavy,Nude is soft and gentle.it’s sweet but not as intensely sweet as her sisters,there’s some sort of freshness here,also it’s light character don’t let it’s sweetness becomes cloying
apricot is very pleasant and yummy here,and florals are oh so pretty.there’s just a hint of subtle woods and a silky musk to make this feminine scent,warmer and even more inviting..drydown is softly powdery and not as fruity sweet as it’s opening
I agree that it’s not original,unique or complex but it smells lovely and while being light and simple,it doesn’t smell cheap,on the contrary I usually find it charming and classy.I love it’s milky sweetness and it’s gorgeous jasmine and osmanthus
It’s a year round wearable perfume but now that I’m wearing it in this warm and sunny(but not hot) late summer day,I like it more than cold winter days(on me it was very very thin and too much musky-woody in cold temp)
sillage is soft to moderate,longevity is less than 4 hours on my skin.I find it a very versatile perfume,it’s wearable for work,date,evenings out,going to cinema or restaurant,even before sleep.if you’d like to have a sweet but tender,romantic,superfeminine and inoffensive perfume which stays close to skin give it a try
I’m adding it to my wantlist but I don’t think that I’m going to buy it anytime soon as it’s very very expensive here and while I love how it smells on me,I can’t convince myself to pay top dollars for a perfume with such a fleeting longevity and sillage(it costs as much as a 3.4oz Tom Ford or a chanel perfume) but if I find it with a reasonable price,I’d buy it

Nice, a pretty sweet and generic fruity floral, linear, feminine, rather forgettable. Longevity is 3 to 4 hours, sillage is the worst I’ve ever seen in a perfume.
stronzij – :
I find it very linear and unimaginative. A sweet apricot compote. Definitely not my piece of cake. I was hoping that the apricot note would go away after a few minutes, but two hours down the road it’s still there in all its suffocating glory. No hint of musk or flowers, just your generic fruity scent.

a beautiful sweet floral skin scent on me! I really love this!
dik1978 – :
Light? Fresh? I wonder if there is something wrong to my nose, becose on my skin this is sickenly sweet and even when I try to wash it out I can still smell it several hours 😀 It must be apricot what my skin hates. I think I give this second chance on autumn, maybe its better then?
Feniessence – :
One of a very RARE beautiful apricot/osmanthus fragrances that I really enjoy (as I mentioned in my reviews for other fragrances, apricot usual gets cloying on me and osmanthus gives me sickly headache from time to time, due to its kind of sweetness). Dahlia Divin Nude is delicate and has just the RIGHT amount, RIGHT kind of apricot and osmanthus. Sillage is between soft and moderate. Longevity is actually great. It has a powdery dry down almost without any musk (which I don’t mind at all), and with a fluffy, “woody” cloud of apricot and jasmine.
Dahlia Divin Nude is overall pretty, feminine, friendly and gentle enough to be worn around people who are sensitive with fragrances and have allergy with scents. As someone already pointed it out, it is rather a “motherly” kind of scent (could be a safe one around newborns or young children). I could see a kindergarten teacher wearing this one, and the kids gathering around her with their darling comments: “Miss X, you smell good…like my mom” 🙂
ruzden – :
I do not like it. A fragrance lacking personality and poor persistence. On my skin, the smell feels exactly half an hour. After that, nothing. Tomorrow I will return it. Maybe they will use it as a tester but I do not want to keep it anymore. I dislike it so much, that I do not want to give it a chance, as it happened with other perfumes that I did not like at the first smell.
xobabuba – :
I sampled Dahlia Divin Nude at the Givenchy counter today, and at first spray, I thought, it is definitely the sister of Le Nectar, sweet and floral!
But later on it softened into a juicier, more fruity fragrance. It still has that Dahlia Divin undertone, but pressing my nose to my wrist, I can pick out the apricot that gives Nude a little more freshness. This may be a bit more wearable in warmer weather than its sisters. Very nice, but I still prefer Le Nectar over this.
5manut – :
It’s addictive and delectable. This smells very much like an Apricot Milkshake.
Also I think it has decent staying power.
swat_s – :
Dahlia Divin Nude is a pleasing mostly floral but also fruity n woody perfume. The scent is not remarkable and is just another pleasant new flanker by Givenchy. It doesn’t last long, it’s reduced to a skin scent pretty soon. The perfume is way overpriced for the quality of juice the bottle holds.
serzh548 – :
Dahlia Nude is a light scent, but I don’t think it deserves harsh criticism..
Yes it is a flanker, I happen to like it, and I think I have good taste..it stays close to the skin, it is fresh and floral, with a hint of fruity…ok, nobody is running after me asking me what I am wearing, yet, on days I want a soft skin scent, Nude is good…smells good too..
It isn’t Shalimar, but I can’t wear Shalimar…think of being on a plane, working with kids, and wanting to smell nice in a discreet way, we need perfumes like Nude..

THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE FROM DAHLIA DIVINE ITS VERY UNIQUE POWDERY WOODY AND SEXY .
vizard – :
@Scentertainer I find your review incredibly rude. Most rarities that we nowadays consider masterpieces and spend hours upon hours hunting for online, and in small perfume shops, were at one point just failed, misunderstood creations that never sold in big enough quantities, in order to justify further production. As prettyswag already mentioned, we do not always wear perfume for others. I am positive that i have quite a few perfumes in my collection, that my husband can’t stand, but i wear them anyways.
I think it would suffice to say that you didn’t like the perfume, instead of wasting so many word into dissing it. Maybe you could dazzle us with one of your own, masterful creations in the future? I’d give anything to see how you do at that!
Vetal03 – :
Very elegant and classy, quite mature 🙂 It kind of smell motherly, to me 🙂
zodoPradese – :
this scent i find quite fruity, sweet and fresh. before seeing what the accords were i tried to guess the fruit i smell and i guessed apricots. checking here, i guessed right. its very apricoty. i dont get the woody-ness like it says. definitely a spring day type perfume that would be cute wearing to a tea party with the ladies. its a scent i can see people would say its okay but not falling in love with. cant see how someone would say they hate it unless they dont like the smell of apricots.
it smells delicious when you first spray but after about 5 minutes, the scent is non existent. i would purchase this spray if it lasted longer and had more sillage. its a very pricy perfume here in australia, just disappointing on how weak it is.
adunse – :
@scentertainer You state your over long review and yes its your right to your own opinions but….women dont always wear a scent for a man and nor does she need to ….I love this scent on my chemistry and it smells wonderful..Most scents out these days are all copied damn near..shouldnt be a surprise! Just as Shalimar perfume i cant stand on me , it smells bad and it smells like im still in 1985. Relax.
wev249speagoessenda – :
I Quite like this and gonna enjoy my bottle and even tho its not real unique …its so close to lancome este belle and victor rolf flowerbomb…its like a blend of both with a nice musky twist. Its def more closer to flowerbomb and almost a sister copy. Its floral sweet , fruity sweet with a sexy musk drydown..and im sure in winter cold weather this will be yummy! I like this better than the other versions which were a bit stuffy but this stays close but lasts. nice!
Talagrim – :
Tested this at the store yesterday. (I have to wait at least an hour before I know how a fragrance is going to react with my chemistry.)
It starts out fruity/floral, but it doesn’t hit you over the head with a loud scent. It’s just nice, subtle hints of fruit and jasmine. It was so light, I was afraid it would be gone before the hour was out. However, late last night I could still get a wonderful light woody, floral hint. It’s almost like your own little “secret”. It stays close to your skin, so only those in your personal space will get a tantalizing whiff of your secret garden.
Bottom line: This would work well any season, any time of day, and it wouldn’t offend fragrance-sensitive coworkers in the office. I’m trying to wait to make it my Christmas “Wish List” item, but I have to fight the impulse to run back to the store and purchase it now.
Lapka-girl – :
A really pretty scent
Similar to nectar but much lighter and fresh
The florals are toned down and it doesn’t have the thick sweetness that the others have but more of a whispy fruity sweetness.
Very feminine of course, I think it would make a really nice day time spring scent.
I smell all notes except osmanthus and wood.
VedeUnsendy – :
..Nude is a soft light sweet scent, nothing bad to say about it…it smells nude!? Like it is a bit floral, but shy…I think it is a bit like Burberry Brit sheer..it isn’t a flanker that adds much to the line, but it certainly is pleasant, and feminine…in the heart it smells of apricot nectar a bit…nothing unpleasant about it, but it isn’t like I find it horribly attractive !? But on days you want a light scent, this is certainly a nice smelling perfume.
UPDATE. I like it more and more, although it is rather soft the longevity is good, it warms up nicely, it has a charming stylish vibe that wasnt obvious at first…upon giving it time, I find it more interesting than Nectar!!
Lovely!!
b_a_r_07 – :
I don’t sense it as the notes say. It reminds me of popcorn with caramel somehow. Something is so foody – smelling in it.
I don’t think it smells like apricots at all, maybe more like a fruit jam.
It’s not floral either.
Difficult to describe, but it’s good for a sweet scent like that.
A very nice new release from Givenchy.
I like it quite well.
2225947 – :
Subtle, truly nice Dahlia Divin! It’s quite sweet so better for cold season, but it’s also gentle enough to be worn for all occasions. Actually, Nude is a good name for it because it stays close to the skin and it makes skin smell like the sun has just warmed it. Tempting, sexy, amazing.
Update: A bit too intense for me.
Gamesfdfreeadg – :
Very sweet, almost sickly sweet scent. Reminds me of apricot gummies. Definitely not the natural smell of the fruit.
