One sniff of this has sent my mind on a journey to sensual paradise. This is the perfect amalgamation of the bones of Guerlain classics (L’Heure Bleu and Apres L’Ondee spring to mind straight away) modernised, softened into a glorious almond sugared floral delight with an herbaceous twist and that Guerlain vanilla base which is neither sickly nor cheap but achingly seductive. Truly special and utterly addictive.

I’m surprised I actually don’t love this. Judging by the notes I thought I would. It doesn’t mix with my chemistry that well, I keep wanting it to get warmer and a little more powdery but the floral note is most dominant. Overall it feels even a little bit bubbly, like a champagne. The vanilla is in there, but for me I just feel like it’s missing something more cozy that I usually get from many other Guerlains. It’s very nice but a little bit too ‘perfumey’ for me, just sitting on top of my skin.

One of the most divine smelling fragrances i’ve ever smelt (thank you Ioli). It reminds me of what a heavenly scent would be…the name precious nectar is so appropriate.
The divine scent would be subtle and mild. This is how it is.
The scent reminds me of the vibe that i get from Chanel Beige but precious nectar is so much softer and refined.
Жан Рок – :
I am a bit disappointed that the petitgrain and orange flowers are the strongest notes on on my dryish cold temperatured skin and they meld together with the slightly powdery sweetness to make a slightly tartish fruity Pez candy effect. Not sure why the honey and almond notes don’t develop on me at all. I on the other hand really like the La Plus Beau Jour de ma Vie that is delicate, floral, almondy and vanilla and definitely more compatible with me chemistry.
Edit: I think the perfume has gotten more concentrated and rich due to the atomizer spray top which is not screwed on but jammed in. I believe that the alcohol content might be slowly evaporating leaving the perfume to be more concentrated than before. Because now I really smell the honey portion and it’s much stronger than before. Love!

There’s this moment in a Bond film when Eva Greene buys Bond a dinner jacket, and he says he already has one, and she comments, “There are dinner jackets, and then there are dinner jackets.” There is perfume, and then there is perfume, and this is the latter. This is most beautiful fragrance I’ve ever smelled, no competition, and a more refined gourmand than I thought it was possible to create. Vanilla, almond, and orange flower combine to smell like honey, only not like any synthetic syrupy honey fragrance I’ve ever smelled, it smells like nature but better. Nothing dark, no amber, no patchouli, it smells like honeyed sunshine. Very light and bare longevity and sillage, but still couldn’t resist a bottle in Paris. Don’t know how I’ll ever get more. A masterpiece for gourmand lovers. Big price, though a lot less in Europe, but worth every penny.
ethemswam – :
Initially opens sweet honey vanilla and Tonka with strong almond accord. It’s an almost cloying sweet at first, but then with body heat this becomes a gauzy but present soft orange flower accord absolutely perfectly balanced with honey almonds. It’s almost–but not quite–gourmand. As hours pass the white flowers lift up the honey. This never however goes into indolic territory. The more I wear it, the more I crave it. It’s a classy lovely scent: sexy but not animalic, tastefully tasty and comforting, really beautifully done. It’s very similar to Serge Lutens Louve, but less bitter almond and more balance; I think Louve is even a bit more gourmand somehow, or linear. This has better complexity and progress.
4.5/5
alegator4444 – :
I like it but it had too much honey. Pretty and cozy like MAyotte
Zesephegree – :
On me, this smells creamy, soft, warm, and slightly sweet. I picture mostly orange blossoms and some jasmine flowers with a light coating of sweet almond powder – it’s like getting hugged by an orange blossom water flavored macaron! The wood and incense come through a bit in the drydown, which is beautiful. It smells very clean and comforting and lasts a good while – about 10 hours on me (I am a heavy sprayer though). Still, no one has complained and I only get compliments while in a hug so the sillage must not be enormous. A definite love for me!
MISTER.BUGROV – :
Almonds powdery vanilla blend. This one is a delicate fragranace with clear Guerlain stamp. I can’t sense that huge quality but i can’t denied that it’s a good fragrnace.
It’s not the cloying vanilla almonds but the delicate milky slightly creamy almonds with hints of European oud, incense and jasmines.
Later it goes kind of metallic and mineral watery. It’s a soft fragrance.
Edit (10th July 2017) It is quite a soft, powdery, and bit gourmand with it’s tenderness effects. Cooling Breeeeeeze….
The only drawback of it is that it doesn’t last more than 30 minutes and vanishes for good. This could be a great factor cause it might be irritating if it does last long.
ira1221 – :
This absolutely beautiful almond honey vanilla floral is perfection. It is to perfume as Pachebel’s Canon in D is to music. Every note is exquisite and their harmony heavenly. This has become my signature scent, and as I work in an office, the moderate sillage and reasonable longevity suit me perfectly. My favorite GUERLAIN, which is saying a lot…and my favorite juice altogether. There is absolutely NOTHING else like it. The first time I tried it at NM, I was immediately hooked, fell in love, and bought a bottle. Went back 6 months later for another as I now refuse to live without it. MPN, she is a dream come true.
Jay – :
Ahhhhh!
I get faintly bitter almonds, musk, a little powder, tender orange blossom, and honeysuckle. Softly floral without being headache inducing (a problem for me with most white-ish florals). Its sweetness reminds me a little of Prada Candy, but this is smoother and a little gentler. A curious combination of a gentle skin scent that nonetheless lasts all day. So lovely, and such a pleasure to add to my Guerlain collection! While it lacks the depth and strangeness of the early Guerlains (with the sumptuous Guerlainade), its nice to finally have one of their more modern creations.
PS, I die over the name. I can’t wait until someone asks me what I’m wearing!
serega911 – :
Very soft, elegant, beautiful perfume. On me it is mostly sweet honeyed orange blossom, almond powder and vanilla. Similar to l’Instant Magic but more floral. I really like it!
Trane52rus – :
Received a sample. Meh. Two words:
YSL Cinema
Ahem…That is all.
grigneeweme – :
Soft and gentle. I don’t really detect much sandalwood or aoud. Definitely white flowers, almond, vanilla and a little honey. A quiet scent, on me.
I would choose La plus Beau ….. over MPN, as it is similar but stronger.
ivan2659 – :
Mon Precieux, indeed. Lovely nectar fit for a Queen Bee. Maybe no honey, but I agree with others who said it reminds them of SL Miel de Bois, but innocent.
MPN is sweet and uplifting, like sticking your nose right into an orange blossom and inhaling deeply. The incense appears after a while, and is just right.
Almonds and vanilla are nicely balanced with the floral and woods. This is enchanting. It has good sillage and great tenacity on my skin. Beautifully done, I’m so happy to have this Guerlain.
surik11 – :
This is so beautiful and everyone I know who have smelled it loved it!
It sits very close to the skin and does not project very well, but I’m always happy whenever I put it on.
It’s very soft so for me, I have to put a lot on. Which is kind of funny seeing that it’s a ‘precious’ nectar and I feel like wasting it when spraying a lot and reapply at least once a day.
On clothes though, it lasts so long. It spray on my naked body after I shower, and then I put on pyjamas. The next evening, I can still smell it on my pyjamas!
yokogawa – :
This is a beautiful, unparalleled brilliant marriage of honeyed vanilla with bitter almond and incense that seamlessly follows a sweet citrusy opening. the composition does not change and the longevity is impressive. Days! There is absolutely no imperfection. Wear it soft and reinforce it in multiple layers; the reinforcement reveals the intoxicating Nectar referenced by the name, sweet and much more incenseful. Addictive at that point. One of a kind for sure.
Valerij 007 – :
absolutely gorgeous! Smells like honeyed incense- think Serge Lutens’ Miel de Bois without the naughty animalic accords…
zvd678Unlogrere – :
Baby-pretty and innocent, nice skin scent of a fresh baby angel with fluffy winds. Nothing special and absolutely not worth the gigantic price, unless you want a pretty and expensive skin scent exactly from Guerlain. Beautifully made and blended, staying power is good, silage moderate.
Mellublix – :
I was not impressed with it at first: it smelled like a weird sweet musky thing, I couldn’t quite detect what it was I’m wearing. After a few more tries, I realized that I’m actually liking it more and more.
It’s that honey-woody note which makes it so cozy and sweet; and then the almond, which smells floral and powdery, and makes the perfume seem a little old-fashioned, nostalgic, but also very comforting, like a grandma’s hug.
Just to compare it to some other almond-centered perfumes, Mon Precieux Nectar is not as sweet and powdery as Mazzolari’s Allesandro; not as fruity and synthetic as Montale’s Mukhallat. It’s not as dense and cloying as Hypnotic poison, but definitely has more character than Jour de Fete. It’s just that perfect “in the middle” scent for me, with enough floral and woody notes to balance everything out.
anarxist-01 – :
Its the first perfume I’ve ever tried that I’ve really actually fallen in love with. MPN is a very exclusive, powdery scent, gentle sweet, classic, in a timeless manner, never overwhelming and totally addictive. If you like sweet floral gourmands, do try this.
vlad.suslov2011 – :
p.s.
A little remarkable thing;
On my skin the perfume fades away in 2 ours, than is is very, very soft, the sillage is very soft. But 12 ours later i can still smell her.
So, if you like extreem soft-sillage for a long period; this is your perfume!
Samy_one – :
enchanting.
a negligee appealing like an almond, sweeten eager alluring.
then, the cheerful and wild petigrain tells me: I’ll never be yours….and leave me without the trail of incense.
I search for it but it’s far away.
I can live MPN at work or in a brothel, it’s pure femininity.
yurii_fedotov – :
Absolutely divine. This is exactly what I would envision nectar would smell like, from the bee’s point of view. The delicate florals and the nectar smell, yes, to me, it is intoxicating.
The nectar accord smells very fresh and juicy and reminds me of what honeysuckle nectar tastes like. I don’t get a real intense bitter almond smell, in fact the first spray does smell like heliotrope, but not the full blown, heavy heliotrope in L’Heure Bleue. It is softer, fragile like dragonfly wings. The jasmine is very sheer, which is not at all indolic, no skank here.
I do not get much of the incense or the guaiac wood, but the lush orange blossom is very true to the natural scent of the waxy white blossoms. The vanilla and the sandalwood is well rounded and never emerges as too sweet or cloying. The musky base is not dirty or overwhelming, nothing like the animalic Jovan’s White Musk, it is more of a comforting scent, reminds me of cashmere.
The parfum, yes my bottle and box strictly say “Parfum”, not eau de parfum. My bottle dates to 2012 and has a super soft cream colored suede ribbon around its neck. I easily decanted some just removing the stopper and using a pipette to transfer into a Travalo type atomizer to keep in my purse.
I happily received this in a swap, and it is my first of the Les Parisiennes collection and it did not disappoint. I love that Guerlain adds an optional high quality atomizer to use with the bee bottle. When I sprayed it, a super fine mist, like myriads of atoms, sprung forth and my body was sweetly enveloped in a kitten soft cloud of the precious nectar.
However, I am saddened this doesn’t have much longevity and is more of a subtle skin scent with low sillage. I will however think of this as my holy grail fragrance and no doubt be mourning its loss when my bottle is empty and only wispy traces of the scent remain.
PPFMB – :
Guerlain’s Mon Precieux Nectar is a symphony for the senses. An absolute masterpiece! This is the Holy Grail of sweet floral perfumes. Powdery almonds enveloped in honeysuckle blossom nectar–perfection! After an hour of wear, a delicious vanilla musk aroma developed, similar to a root beer float! Silage is moderate. Longevity is incredible–6+ hours.
BotoCloulse – :
This is a warm, sweet almond and syrup scent-its light, girlish and smells like a bakers shop. It’s a lovely fragrance for gourmand lovers, but far too sweet for me, and it smells synthetic-I’m sure its not, but sweet gourmands tend to smell synthetic to me. I certainly wouldn’t buy a bottle-a small decant is enough for me to decide that its not quite my cup of tea. However, I had a brainwave and layered it with Cherry Blossom (L’Occitane) and it became gorgeous! The cherry blossom took away some of the tooth-aching sweetness and gave it more of a kick. The sillage is very soft, and longevity is about 3 hours on me, although 2 hours of that was predominantly a single vanilla note.
sveto4ek147896325 – :
Have had my bottle now for over year. (See previous post) I am still in love with this fragrance. I have over 200 bottles of perfume. The most I’ve ever spent on perfume is in the $300 range. I love perfume. This, by far, is the best fragrance I have ever smelled! The only down point is that it does not have much longevity or sillage. It stays very close to the skin and is very subtle. I want other people to smell what I smell. That is why I would really appreciate if it had more longevity and sillage. I don’t know now if I would reinvest in another bottle of this because of the aforementioned reasons. But I am conflicted, because I love it so! I have just showered and sprayed the fragrance all over my body and I’m snuggled in bed. This is how I enjoy it most. I find when I try to wear during the day, I never smell it, unless I sniff my collar. So the only way I can enjoy it is in a close and intimate environment where other smells will not overtake it and my nose will not be distracted away. #sad
moshost24 – :
Marzipan, soft, smooth and… Kind of cute smelling. Funny enough, I imagine it is what a baby would pick as a signature scent. Hardly worth the extraordinary price tag. Certainly not unique enough for it either. I do love the opulent bottle but that isn’t enough to make me want to buy it. Sniff worthy for sure, but your money is better reserved for something far more precieux.
hamhoojegoCog2007 – :
I thought that me and Mon Precieux Nectar were meant to be for various reasons.
1. I once conceptualized an Alien vs Predator layering set and Predator’s perfume was called “Mon Precieux Mandible”
2. I was on VACATION and I had plenty of money to waste on some fancy ass Guerlain
3. I love orange blossom, but not as much as I love almond and guaiac wood.
“Oh it’s nice!” and then I thought “NICE? This be $280 we’re talking about!” so I shrugged and we parted ways.
A while later, I purchase a sample to see if perhaps I missed something. Again, “Oh this is nice..” and then “This is reminding me of something.. what is it?” It took me a while, but the answer is.. Hanae Mori. But not just Hanae Mori any time, anywhere.. Hanae Mori being sprayed in a Nordstrom department store.
So, in closing.. this is a pretty fragrance. Really, it is. If you love, or even like almonds, you will enjoy Mon Precieux Nectar. However, it is hardly worth $280 unless you just want to spend money. Thankfully, everybody acts like this one doesn’t exist so you won’t be tempted.
HANAE MORI.
Pritguififs – :
Is this scent suitable for men? I have a decant coming in
sevuk – :
warm, inviting, elegant and simply irresistible!unfortunately i’ll never be able to have a FB because it’s impossible to find one even online and the price is forbidding…:(
artur0701 – :
Mon Précieux Nectar is a scent that is amazingly soft and smooth! I like it, but for me it’s too feminine. In fact I don’t think it’s unisex. Of course it’s marketed towards women, but so are most (if not all) of the Guerlain Exclusifs. Spiritueuse Double Vanille and Tonka Imperiale can be worn by men, but this one (in my opinion) cannot.
Anyways, on to the smell of this lovely (woman’s) perfume. In the opening I get an explosion of almond and vanilla. As time passes, more and more of the jasmine starts to show, and the orange blossom as well (although I smell far more jasmine than orange blossom). However, the vanilla and especially the almond remain strong throughout. Unfortunately I can’t make out the rest of the notes, except MAYBE very slightly the incense. But it’s very faint, I really have to look (or is it “sniff”?) for it…
The sillage and longevity are of course very good, as we’re used to from the Guerlain Exclusif line. But since this is a soft and smooth scent, this perfume won’t suffocate you when you “accidentally” spray too much of it. That’s something I find pleasant about this scent as well, because some women I encounter do tend to go trigger happy on the spray …
Also, the name is very well chosen, because when smelling the scent as a whole, I can totally imagine smelling nectar!
77беня77 – :
So after reading the reviews here, I decided to go and jump into the pool for a FB. I needed a good pick me up, and either a new fragrance or lipstick does that. Having said that, here’s my thoughts with her for the first hour. First sniff reminded me of L’Heure Bleue and Apres L’Ondee although I will say, for me, I prefer this one over L’Heure Bleue. Shudder! I know. Anyways, I find that most people describe her pretty well. There is a sweetness in here, but very grown up. I suppose what I am not playing well with is the floral in here. There is also the incense/smoke but not a heavy one. All in all, it’s nice, but for the price, I think I’ll send it back. The bottle is lovely. I find that with Guerlain, if it’s a hit on me, it’s a HUGE HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK, hit, and if it’s a miss, it’s a strike out 🙁 It’s not bad, and I might give her one more round. But I’m thinking that the Elixir line just agrees with my chemistry more. For anyone who wants to try this, I would say go ahead, yes, she is very lovely. My chemistry just wants to run away from her though. Will update later.
Edit: After about 3 hours it turned to the better on me. Reminded me of my beloved Guerlain Elixir Coquin Gourmand. I’ll probably give it another round. It stayed a good 8-10 hours, and also evolved. Tapping finger, hum, not sure whether to keep or not.
Edit2: I returned this lovely juice. It just wasn’t me. But she may play well with you….
greka1947 – :
This is so soft, smooth and beautiful! The opening, on me, is all about orange blossom and almonds, but soon enough, the sandalwood and the incense make their entrance, accompanied by the slightest hint of vanilla. The ensemble gives a very honey-like, gourmand impression. But this is a grown-up gourmand done right, very classy and, thanks to the beautiful incense and sandalwood, never too sweet. It’s dreamy and achieves to be all at once very modern with a classic “old-school” vibe. I love this one so much! My only complaint is that it doesn’t last very long on me, maybe 3-4 hours top, but hey, that’s ok because I get to reapply a bit more often and be amazed, each and every time by the beautiful bottle this precious nectar comes in 🙂
FriendMadison – :
I have only one very specific thing to say about this perfume:
If for all of your living years you had a hatred for Vanilla. This is your cure. And really thank you thank you thank you thank you Guerlain!!!!!!! The bitter almond incense completey tames the icky after-flavor of crude vanilla in Mon Nectar Preciuex and transforms it into an enchanting, soft, feminine, skin-caressing affair that is simply elegant and beautiful.
Yes, this is the way Vanilla should be presented if at all.
On a side note: Oscar De La Renta Blue, has another genius treatment of Vanilla: Vanilla Liqcuor …. Brilliant. Not to forget also Tom Ford’s Vanilla Tobacco —- stunner
zevs6623 – :
Soft,soft,soft,sweet almond, caramel, vanilla powder…Well rounded, no edges, nothing to dislike about this one (except perhaps the price).Like a younger,sweeter sister of L’Heure Bleue who is more fashionable but still shares the Guerlain family traits.
metr82 – :
Welcome to brave new world in a slightly old fashioned style.I dare others Perfume Houses achieve perfect interpretation like Guerlain.I`m already smell envy despite nothing will compare to this Nectar.
Go get yours before it gets discontinued like Iris Ganache.
autocruizer – :
Guerlain why you do this to me?
Perfect name and for sure perfect scent!
You do not need many words it is an accomplished balance something like white almondy flowers dipped in honey creamy vanilla set up this elixir and creates something like a floral liqueur.
We can say that´s the legitimate nectar of the gods for me one of the best Guerlains!
Rating: 10/10
Naam – :
Got my bottle today. Noooo regrets. It’s intoxicating. MPN is not just a fragrance, it is an experience. All the things I said before are still true. I’ve found my new signature!!
Loangoysdbuo – :
Nords SA only gave me a few “precious” drops in vial to take home and try because bottles were being shipped back due to “limited time only” in store. Showered and dressed myself for bed in MPN. Lovely. Husband liked. Woke up this morning and can still smell strongly on nightgown, softer on skin, but its there. Very almondy, soft, pretty flower petals. Will apply last final drops in AM to test throughout the day. For me, projection, about a foot or two; not offensive, very seductive in a pure, sexy way, not dirty sexy. The difference between lovemaking and sex. MPN is lovemaking, beautiful, white, soft, romantic, memorable in a charming way. Your man will want to breathe you in. I think of soldiers getting their love letters scented with this and sniffing them to remind them of what they have back home -LIFE. MPN is a bride, a wife, a professional working woman who gets her job done, and is uncompromisingly, unapologetically feminine.
ziban – :
Yikes. This is the first fragrance I’ve ever tried that features almond as a predominant note, and it definitely didn’t work on me. It smelled EXACTLY like Play-Doh. It turned my stomach. I couldn’t wait to get it off.
If you’re not sure whether almond works with your body chemistry, please try before you spend $300 on a bottle. I would be furious if I’d blind bought this.
Никита96 – :
Beautiful soft fragrance. It conveys a sense of fragility. It’s intoxicating but not overpowering. It stays very close to my skin which is the way I like my fragrances. I tried with at first with Nuit d’Amour and ended up getting Nd’A but could not forget this. Eventually got a bottle as well. These are the scents that I wear when I feel happy and content. It’s an ageless/seasonless scent although the longevity is so so. Lasts about 2-3 hours on me.
Ozil – :
Extraordinary. This is by far the best creamy white floral with gourmand nuances that my nose has ever came accross. Honeysuckle perhaps? Drydown is to die for, sweet and almondy, I just can’t stop sniffing my wrist. Superbly well done!
shaviktor2 – :
Another modern Guerlain I find enjoyable but never get beyond the “mmm, this is nice”-phase. No bitterness or sharpness , just nice, lulling softness. Not opulence but rather delicacy (or maybe my idea of opulence is more in line with Lutens& Mugler than Wasser). Safe choice for any situation.
It lasts about 6h on me, projects to about arms length and hasn’t offended anyone. I had a 5ml decant, but don’t feel the need to buy a full bottle. Wouldn’t mind getting one as a gift, though:) If you love Gourmand Coquin, this is worth trying.
Рыбак2005 – :
Elusive, that’s how I would best describe this scent. Perhaps it is my chemisty that just eats it up but it goes from soft to non-existent in short time.
This is such a soft light, almost ethereal blend. It’s sweetness – not overpowering thankfully – from the vanilla and almond then it entwines with delicate jasmine and brightens further with petit grain. Musk and almost transparent wood notes anchor the blend and keep it from becoming cloying or loud.
It’s fresh with a breath of innocence, it’s familiar and comforting, which draw you in but at the same time it’s elusive because it’s not too familiar and makes you keep chasing it for another wisp, it’s like a mirage in that sense.
I have received more compliments with this perfume than any other. Some say it smells clean, some say it smells like heaven, most can’t put their finger on it, it just pulls them in, as it does with me. It’s hard to rationalize because one part says it’s not worth the price tag but the other keeps trying to identify what draws me (any everyone else) to it so I keep putting it on and following its whispering essence.
The main down side to this is that it doesn’t seem to last and has low sillage. I envy the people that it is strong/long lasting on.
Gsmtmn – :
Solar! Like an expensive tanning lotion (that is not perfumed with coconut). Delicate almond, soft tropical flowers and soft vanilla. reminds me of Jo Malone’s Vanilla & Anise as well as the 1980s Vanderbilt but in a very soft way. I can see how people can associate it to Chanel’s Beige.
Dan961 – :
I adore Guerlain….but this particular one reminds me of Stinky Georgio Beverly Hills from the 1980’s. If you want to purchase this . I suggest sampling it…there are many…MANY other perfumes that smell better. Thierry Wasser has made some very lovely fragrances… I don’t know maybe it is just me and bad olfactory memories…but I can’t dig it.
pashuman178 – :
Actually after sniffing my sample of this through top, middle notes and drydown I can say this is definitely not a sexual type perfume at all. It’s more a sweetness of angels type of scent. Very, very sweet. Very pleasant, but so much honey, almonds I don’t think I could wear it. And definitely not worth the $500 of whatever that Bergdorf’s is asking for it. Also, I found it didn’t last that long either. I’ll try my sample from time to time, but that’s enough for me.
nika-zar – :
Sweet honeyed incense on top of cherry-almond with a dusting of powder. Cozy, comforting, and ethereal. Projection is average and lasting power is 6-8 hours.
David999 – :
Kl, this is really very much with sensual spirituality. So soft, a bit sweet, almonds, vanilla and incense is strong at my skin, with hints of woody notes and flowers. Very delicate scent indeed. I love the bottle also. Though, its not too sweet, very well made. Love in a bottle. Yeah. Perfect for starting autumn in here. Goes on my want list.
