Guerlain commits to the bee, sentinel of the environment

The scent of an untameable flame

Nahema is part of Guerlain's Patrimoine Collection. A collection made of emblematic fragrances, composed for more than a century by 5 generations of Perfumers. These mythical pioneer perfumes compose a unique olfactive library, that the Maison Guerlain endeavors to preserve. Nahema is an enigmatic elixir whose muse is an oriental rose with spellbinding charm. Its main olfactory note gradually transforms into a haunting presence. It took its creator four years to develop this rich and somptuous women's fragrance. Nahema is presented in a spray bottle inspired by the iconic Bee Bottle, covered in 69 iconic bees of the Empire.

A legend of burning love, ablaze with rose and peach

First comes a rose scent selected from the best families in the rose species. Then at Nahéma’s heart lies the fresh, green scent of hyacinth accord followed by fruit, including peach accord and passion fruit, which have been a symbol for temptation since the tale of Adam and Eve was first told. At the base of the composition sits sandalwood and patchouli. Inspired by an intoxicatingly charming ambery rose fragrance, Nahéma is a truly enigmatic elixir.

ROSE

Harvested in Bulgaria and too delicate to travel, roses are made into an essential oil on site using steam and/or direct fire distillation.
The resulting rose oil brings a floral and fruity note to fragrances.

PEACH ACCORD

Our peach accord is an original creation made by Guerlain perfumers.
This accord expresses the fruity olfactory fragrance of a velvety peach.

PATCHOULI

Patchouli essence features many vegetal, woody and earthy olfactory facets.
Combined with rose, moss and bergamot, patchouli forms the base of the chypre accord.

HOUSE SECRETS

Nahema is constructed around a saturation of roses with slightly fruity oriental notes thanks to the use of a secret ingredient: a revolutionary molecule taken from the rose itself.

A LEGENDARY BOTTLE

Designed by Raymond Guerlain in 1912, its iconic “inverted heart” bottle is underscored with graceful scrolls typical of Art Nouveau. Its avant-garde stopper, in the form of a hollowed heart, evokes the delicate romanticism of this perfumery masterpiece and represented a real technical feat at the time.
