The Story

Launched in 1979 by Jean-Paul Guerlain, Nahéma Extract is a Floral Fruity fragrance that encapsulates the essence of luxurious refinement. The composition opens with a vibrant Rose note, which transitions into a heart of Hyacinth and Passion Flower, bringing a lush, verdant character to the blend. As it settles, Vanilla, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Tonka Bean create a warm, spicy, and sweet base that is both comforting and sophisticated. This fragrance is a proof of Guerlain's tradition of using rare and luxurious materials, offering an experience that feels as opulent as its heritage.

Application Tips

Nahéma Extract has a rich base that takes time to bloom. Apply it lightly in the morning or early afternoon for its full effect through the day. The floral heart can be overpowering if layered too heavily, so one or two sprays are sufficient.

Jean-Paul Guerlain portrait
I am the last Guerlain to make perfume. After me, the house continues — but the family chapter closes.

Jean-Paul Guerlain is the fourth and final generation of Guerlain family perfumers, a lineage that spans nearly two centuries of French fragrance history. Taking the creative helm of the house in 1955, he continued the family's tradition of creating deeply personal, emotionally rich fragrances. His masterpieces — Habit Rouge, Vétiver, Samsara, and Héritage — are cornerstones of the perfume canon. Jean-Paul brought a more modern, sometimes daring sensibility to the Guerlain tradition, while always maintaining the house's legendary commitment to the finest raw materials.
