A very concentrated pastel rose, not the dry sharp spicy damascena, nor the safe and ingenue english tea rose. The first thing that came to mind when I smelled it was “lipstick rose”. Not because of any resemblance with Frederic Malle’s but just because it has a very cosmetic creaminess and sweetness in it. Being used with the strength and almost masculine, compared to this one, damascena worked out in middle eastern style, Nahema goes on way too sweet and creamy for me. But a beautiful elegant and feminine creation.

Hello from Decodawn this is my review of Guerlain Nahema. I am sorry to say but I do agree with chocolover the initial blast is horrible very medicinal. However given patience and the urge to scrub off this fragrance soon dries to reveal a picture in my mind of the freshest red rose in a rose garden in Egypt. I once stayed many years ago with my husband and children in Sharm El Sheikh, the hotel gardens were beautifully kept and abundant with roses and exotic flowers. The night air scented with spices and the magic of the egyptian starlit sky. Nahéma is very magical, the rose is pure and the ingredients as always with Guerlain of the highest quality. This is a very romantic powerful fragrance, and I do not mean over powering but has an extraordinary effect on your senses, very calming and full of romance. I own the 30ml extrait pure perfume. I love all my ‘Guerlains’ as I own 15 bottles many rare and classics as well as Mon Guerlain from 2017, but Nahema is very special. It does not have the usual Guerlainade as with earlier classic Guerlain fragrances this one is completely unique. Try it you will love it.

This is a floriental with deep, dirty, bold rose to the fore. I was in the right place at the right time. FragranceX had it at around $80 for 30ml instead of the usual $340ish.
It embodies all the class and sophisication that one would naturally expect from Guerlain. It has very good silage and longevity, and so I can understand why it’s loved by so many for the high quality fragrance it is.
However, I prefer the vintage PDT and so I’ll enjoy it until the bottle is empty, but I won’t be replacing it.

Nahema pure parfum is very abrasive at the start and, in my opinion, should not be sprayed. Jicky, Shalimar and Chamade parfum can all be sprayed, but Nahema can take on an initial STRONG drinkable alcoholic beverage smell which isn’t always pleasant. It’s almost nutty, though, which is a good thing.
Now the scent, when properly applied! THIS is the spirit of Nahema. Rosey, jelly crystals as @kapted mentioned below. It’s green, earthy and beautiful.

It’s too bad, that as of January of 2016 is not going to be in production. Sadly, one of the best Guerlain pure parfumes is no more…

Fragrance Review For Nahema Extract De Parfum Guerlain
Top Notes: Rose
Middle Notes: Hyacinth Passion Flower
Base Notes: Sandalwood Patchouli Vanilla Tonka
The EDP is far more lush, aromatic and mind blowing. It’s a rose based scent with intoxicating booziness and long lasting pleasures. But this is not bad either. It’s a simpler easier to wear dab on perfume. It has the same rose scent from Nahema but it’s taken over by the passion flower which smells more like a fruit. It’s like a concentrated fruit juice of apricot. It reminds me of Donna by Pavarotti. The rose is still hanging in there though but this time it’s more a fruited rose. Fortunately the base notes are each doing their thing and keep it in the realm of Nahema, exotic, gorgeous, and commanding attention. It has a very beautiful sandalwood and patchouli which smell Oriental in character. A vanilla dry down keeps it sweet. This is very nice. It does not turn as balsamic as the first Nahema and it’s more powdery. This is very feminine, and very sophisticated. I wear this every now and then to formal events in formal wear. If you like Guerlain fragrances but are trying to venture into the splash bottle dab ons and older frags check this out. I am afraid that it could be discontinued as it might not even be selling on ebay but you can consult the website or just buy the Nahema Eau de Parfum which smells like this but more balsamic and richer more floral. This was a fruitier edition.
