Nicole Scherzinger Chosen is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Chosen opens with Orange, Apple, Pear, and Peach, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Caramel, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Nicole Scherzinger's Chosen carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This celeb scent is a divisive one - some find it a delightful, budget-friendly dupe for high-end gourmands, while others feel it's just 'okay' and lacks originality or staying power. You'll either love it or find it quickly forgettable.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and sometimes strong character makes it better suited for casual or date wear, as it might be too prominent for a professional office setting. Reviews mention it's a good everyday option, but some note moderate to weak projection, which limits its formal appeal.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Chosen opens with a burst of juicy fruits - sweet peach, crisp pear, and a hint of bright orange. This quickly mellows into a warm heart of creamy caramel and delicate jasmine. The dry down is a comforting embrace of soft vanilla and musky patchouli, leaving a sweet and sensual trail.
