Nomade Jasmin Naturel Intense

Blind Buy experience: This stuff is goooood!! I'm a lover of tropical scents. Beachy, summery scents are my thing. Everyone seems to love their wintertime scents and I'm all about the summer fragrances and I have my fair share of them. I live in the desert, so I get plenty of use for them and not so much use for fall/winter scents. With that being said, I had to come back here to look at the pyramid because I don't recall tiare, frangipani, or coconut being in this one, but it smells beachy, and I love that! It's a smooth, creamy jasmine, a very classy take on this style of perfumery. I suppose it's just the combination of mirabelle, jasmine, dates, pear, and freesia that's doing it for me. This is blended so well, none of the notes are dominant and the base is there just to support the heart and top to provide longevity and stability. The patchouli is almost undetectable here so if you're not a patch fan, fear not. The oakmoss complements the scent to provide some class with a nice earthy touch. I would have never known there were dates in this had I not come here, nothing like the dates in Kamrah. I suppose they are used for sweetness and an earthy, fruitiness since the whole nomad line is about elegant earthiness. I just keep thinking when I smell this, I smell class. It's classy, but also youthful, feminine, and sexy. Not easy to do all of those at once, but they pulled it off here and I say kudos! I say this is good for anyone 25+. It might be a bit too sweet for women over 70, but if you like sweet fragrances and you're over 70, you do you! I'm just thinking about the women I know over 70 and I know most of them are not big fans of overly sweet perfumes. By no means is this overly sweet, at least for me, but it definitely has that sweetness of a floral/fruity fragrance. I love this one. I keep going back to smell my hand! Definitely blind buy safe, as long as you don't have an aversion to tropical florals because that's what this scent is. It's jasmine disguised as frangipani here!

If you’re a fan of jasmine & white florals, this is a must have for your collection. This is personally my signature scent. In the warmer months the pear & mirabelle notes are bright & the vanilla is delightfully creamy. In the winter months the date, sandalwood & okamoss is prominent on me and is a “sticky date pudding” type aroma. Both warm and cool the jasmine & freesia comes through heady & creamy, but also transitions the complexity & seasonal mutability. It is not a scent appropriate for people who strongly dislike white florals. But this scent I find a delight all year round, day or night. I’m often complimented & asked what scent am I wearing. A somewhat whimsical part of me thinks there’s a signature fragrance for everyone, where they can wear it anytime of day or year and it just compliments their personal chemistry & for me I’ve found it with this one. This pure enjoyment that I have & multiple compliments I receive may make me bias in my review. I remember the first day I tried it as a tester. My husband (fiancé at the time) would not stop saying how good I smelled & he asked me to wear it on our wedding day. It’s definitely a scent that would have the longevity and the right balance for a wedding fragrance

I feel like it will become my new trick pick. Such a beautiful perfume. Firstly, the pear-floral mixture is so calming and unique. After 10-20 min the beautiful sweet part begins, where it smells like tea with sweet spices or Apfelstrudel. I feel like wearing it every season, since the jasmine and light pear would fit hot seasons too. At the end, there is a nice transition from pear to vanilla, reminding of the ice cream that’s served together with the Apfelstrudel. One spray lasted almost 8h on my skin. My boyfriend hates perfumes and gets headaches even from the most natural smelling ones, but this one and Coffee Break from MMM are the only ones that he likes, so definitely also a sign for FB for me. I feel like this perfume is perfect to wear for calm/cozy moments or when you want to feel like that. I imagine it fitting every age and being worn by a girl/woman in cozy and soft neutral clothes. Soft sweaters in winter and flowing very light linen or satin in summer. The clothes that give a delightful feeling on skin, same as this perfume gives you a charming feeling when wearing it. 10/10

OMG Hear me out... this is the designer sibling of Amouage Guidance. They are quite similar (i am literally smelling them both now), not identical, but more like cousins. They share similar notes: pear in the top notes, jasmine in the middle notes (here, dates add sweetness, while in Amouage, it's osmanthus), and sandalwood and vanilla in the base. If you don't have the budget for Amouage, go for this one; they give off exactly same vibe. I still think Amouage is more complex, but remove the nuts, saffron, and Labdanum, and it becomes Chloe Nomade. To be honest, I even prefer Chloe because Guidance, with hazelnuts in top nots, has this rotting, spoiled smell that Chloe doesn't have. By the way, out of all the designer perfumes I've tried, these are among the few I adore (maybe 3-4 that deserve my approval out there). They are not linear and quite complex in a non-offensive way. Definitely worse its money.

This made me emotional the very first time I smelled it. I had to go back to the department store and snap a photo of the bottle because I was too misty-eyed to read the label. I still can't put my finger on it why I had such visceral reaction to this perfume - does it resemble my scented diaries from the 80s or perhaps my moms after sun lotion from the same decade? Whatever the reason, my body r e m e m b e r s this. I will let you know, if my brain ever catches the memory. Needless to say; I love it. Childhood summer in a bottle - at least the way I experienced it. #tiimaricore Edit: A department store in my country had a huge sale on perfumes and cosmetics so with -40% price tag you bet your sweet 🫏 I purchased this in a heartbeat. It is so so lovely, my ideal summer scent. 💛
