Guerlain Nahema is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Jean-Paul Guerlain. Nahema opens with Peach and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Hyacinth and Rose, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Patchouli. Guerlain's Nahema carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Prepare for a proper head-scratcher with Nahema. This isn't your average rosy crowd-pleaser; it's a divisive, complex floral that swings from 'absolute sorcery' to 'unwearable green bitterness'. If you're after a classic with a challenging edge, this could be your unique signature, but definitely don't blind buy.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Nahema opens with a punchy, almost contradictory, blend of sweet peach and tart passionfruit, immediately setting a tone of bold sophistication. The heart unfurls into a dramatic, opulent rose, underscored by prominent, cool hyacinth with its distinctly green and earthy facets. This powerful floral core eventually settles into a warm, sensual base of creamy sandalwood and deep, grounding patchouli, offering a smooth, classic finish to its tempestuous beginning.
