Rose Goudmand Nectar

The fragrance is well blended, so the notes all meld together. It opens with a fresh green pear note that introduces a lovely with a fruity jammy fresh rose and fresh peony. The heart of this fragrance, the hazelnut, caramel, and sandalwood drenches this fragrance in a nutty, sweet, and caramelized sweetness that isn’t heavy or tooth-achingly sweet. Before I smelled it, the notes in here read winter to me, but there is a freshness that keeps this fragrance from being too heavy. This is such a pretty girl scent, but isn’t juvenile and could be an easy reach for summer and spring! As I type this, I have Rose Gourmand on the back of one hand and Rose Gourmand Nectar on the back of my other hand. Rose Gourmand Nectar projects quite nicely and performs well. If you wear this on a warm windy day, everyone will smell you. Rose Gourmand is softer and wispy. Also, in my opinion, Rose Gourmand is more “gourmand” in my opinion. On my skin, it smells quite edible, like a rose water and vanilla bean ice cream.

Beautiful rose perfume with a hyper dose of (in my opinion) blackcurrant syrup and vanilla. Very reminiscent of Armani Si (Intense or Fiori). Zara claims pear (on the website) and hazelnut (on the box of this perfume); perhaps the combo of both creates the illusion/effect of blackcurrant? Or maybe they’re just making us think of things that aren’t even there... regardless, it’s a beautiful composition with surprisingly good performance (sillage and longevity).

It is not copy of idole Nectar. Its sexy & young who tries to be matured but its juvinile aura cant deny. its in the boundary of gourmande & juicy rose jam. Love it. I smelled Patchouli or earthy notes even if they are not listed but it balances it. Currently in my first day of use and If this last for 3 hours, then its better than any niche and highend brand.

It all depends how much you believe in the concept of fragrance seasons, which i don't necessarily believe in it, but I don't think this is really a summer fragrance. More like fall. And I can't exactly compare and explain since I don't have a bottle of it but it does remind you of Si by Armani. Balsamic, nutty, slightly fruity, and warm vibes.

OK this is crazy i bought the smallest version of this just for a test and when i tell you the results are SHOCKING in the span of one day - the first of ever wearing it - 8 PEOPLE complimented me on this, like I was actually flabbergasted definitely gonna wear this on special occasions cause girlll the praise is INSANE

Last summer I was in love with Idole Nectar but I could not afford it. This summer I will definitely get this perfect dupe. Only difference between them is Idole Nectar always stays fruity while Rose Gourmand Nectar becomes a caramel scent in a few hours. Still great!

This is cute. The rose gourmand is a bit flat and too sweet giving a bit if an old vibe but this is juicy and playful. Since I have both I will be layering. The pear is very nice giving that sultry playful vibe. This is gorgeous. Light, feminine, fresh and sweet.

Omg i love it so much, i havent been able to get it off my mind since i smelled it in Zara, had to come back and buy it!

@Fragrantica please change the name spelling from Goudmand to Gourmand.

Rose Gourmand Nectar by Zara – A Love-Hate Affair 💔🌹✨ Oh, Rose Gourmand Nectar... where do I even begin? This is not your soft, delicate, airy gourmand—this is bold, intense, and in-your-face. If you’re expecting the dreamy, cozy sweetness of the OG Rose Gourmand, think again. This one takes that DNA and amps it up to the extreme. The first spray is an explosion of rose, amber, and deep caramelized sweetness, almost intoxicating in its richness. It’s sensationally strong, wrapping you in a luxurious, almost syrupy embrace that feels opulent and statement-making. The longevity? Insane. The projection? Beast mode. If you want a fragrance that demands attention, this is it. But here’s the catch—it’s also hard, dense, and unrelenting. There’s an almost overpowering thickness to it that can feel suffocating if you’re not in the mood for something this heavy-hitting. It lacks the softness and creamy balance of the original, making it feel more like a bold, dark rose drenched in molten sugar, rather than a smooth, wearable gourmand. So, do I love it? Yes. Do I struggle with it? Also yes. It’s a fragrance for those who love big, unapologetic scents, but if you’re looking for something gentle and crowd-pleasing, this might be too much. Wear with confidence—or at your own risk! 🌹🔥

It is a romantic rose floral gourmand perfume with a splash of very light sweet caramel or warm floral nectar syrup that lingers on your skin, providing that a nice hollow atmosphere of feeling you're walking in a corridor of nostalgia, surrounded by lightly warm, nice and good feelings. It is like an edible light caramel vanilla bean ice-cream by a warm fireplace with the floral bouquet of white, pale pink, peach and amber roses on the fireplace in bloom. This review may make the perfume read as being too nice, sweet and dreams-like, but a bottle of this perfume was favored and completed in my collection.

This is a likable fragrance, but it doesn’t live up to the name and the power of the original. Unlike a lot of the other reviews here claim, I do feel like you can get some of the original’s DNA in this, but maybe it might just be because I feel like the rose note that Zara uses in all of its rose fragrances is very similar. I enjoy the pear note in this a lot. Fragrantica should really fix the spelling mistake they made in the name here. It’s been over a year...

It has a great lasting power. The sent is identical to CH - good girl blush, with a bit "nectariness". Will be great for summer

I don't know what everyone is smelling but to me it's a little heavy for summer. I think it's nicer on colder seasons. It's not fresh or light. Really strong and i smell something like patchouli or earthy rather than fruit or caramel. Rose is definitely there but not a fresh, flowery rose, bit more like a muddy rose. I am neutral to it. I don't love it to use a lot but also not hate it (yet) to get rid of it.

Definitely strong and heavy so for winter and cold days. And it stays for a long time, I could smell it after 6h. I bought it because it says hazelnut and sandalwood on the bottle but now I'm confused by the notes here. I definitely smell rose and it's a very sweet rose. I think caramel indeed. Not a big fan.

This is quite different from the OG Rose Gourmand. While it's still very gourmand-forward, all the gourmand notes seem to disappear quickly. To my nose, it's very sharp and fresh. It should be called "Rose Fruity" rather than "Rose Gourmand." Don't blind buy this one! It's definitely a daytime spring/summer scent.

i do enjoy the sweet dry down but there's something about this soapy rose that makes it stick to everything, like i eat this perfume when i spray it and it stays in my mouth hours later it's pretty bad

Some reviews are a bit........misleading........for a Zara perfume. I'd suggest you get your nose on it. There's still tons of ambroxan in this, uh, flanker?

I honestly expected it to be more creamy or caramel like but it’s very bitter, the pear note is way too citrusy for my liking

This reminds me of Armani Sì Fiori/Sì Intense. Funniest thing, I am not a fan of the orginial Sì and I actually wrote a review last year about considering declutter it, but accidentally layered it on top of Roses Vanille, which was a match made in heaven and because of that accident would keep it. One year later this is released and it’s exactly what my accident smelled like😂🫶🏼 This has the DNA with a fruity/nectar twist to the OG Rose gourmand and what it’s duping - Roses Vanille/Intense Cafe. I don’t find it as «loud» as the OG. This is softer, but loud enough to give a nice scent bubble. As an oversprayer, I usually get compliments on my perfume, but today was different. I just finished my shift (8 hours) running back and forth in the shop, close to customers organizing clothes etc. No one complemented me on my perfume per se, instead I got tons of compliments about looking very classy and well dressed. So I guess it gives off that vibe, because I hardly believe my choice of clothing is the sole reason for all the compliments today. This perfume seems to be a perfect finish touch to a nice outfit.
