Stella McCartney Stella Nude is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. Stella Nude opens with Grapefruit and Rose, settles into a heart of Peony and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. Stella McCartney's Stella Nude carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Stella Nude is a lovely, delicate rose that's perfect for a clean, natural scent, though its fleeting nature means you'll need to reapply. It's a 'your skin but better' vibe; just don't expect it to make a grand entrance or last all day.

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.

Given its light sillage and poor longevity, this is best suited for scenarios where subtlety is key - think office, casual outings, or even bedtime. It's too understated for formal events and its freshness makes it surprisingly good for light activity, despite its performance issues.

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.

Other declarable allergens

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

Opens with a fresh burst of grapefruit and dewy rose, quickly joined by the soft, powdery elegance of peony. A hint of pink pepper adds a subtle sparkle before settling into a warm, inviting base of creamy vanilla and amber. It feels like a second skin, a natural floral embrace.
