Nectarine in Fragrances: 5 Scents You Need to Try

Nectarines are a variety of peach that originated in China over 4,000 years ago. What makes a nectarine distinct from an average peach is its smooth skin, which is a result of a natural mutation. 

The scent of nectarine is very similar to that of peaches, but lighter with a citrusy aroma. It combines the freshness of ripe fruit with sweet undertones and is frequently paired with notes such as honey, floral blossoms, and lighter, woody notes.

Here are some of our favourite fragrances carrying a nectarine note.

1. Burberry Weekend EDP

We’re starting this list with a vintage floral scent. Launched in 1997, Burberry Weekend is a product of its time. It is bold, loud, and very appropriately named. The funny thing is, this fragrance was not as bold compared to those that emerged in the 90s, but in today’s minimalist world, it’s viewed as quite imposing by some.

I personally really enjoy this scent. It’s nostalgic, easy to wear, and comforting to a certain extent. It goes well with casual looks that are a little bit more out there. It’s not fancy, but it’s fun. I would recommend “Weekend” for springtime, when it’s not too hot, and this fragrance can truly shine.

2. Paris Hilton Can Can EDP

Can Can by Paris Hilton is everything you’d want in a fun, flirty, playful everyday scent. It is a fragrance that you would have loved as a teenager, and you would still love when you’re a woman grown.

This fragrance is a bit fruity, slightly sweet, and musky at the dry down. It also has a powdery aroma with hints of amber. This composition comes together beautifully to make a flirty, girly scent that would make the perfect signature scent.

3. YSL Yvresse EDT

Yvresse is a unique scent. It’s mature but not in “your grandma’s perfume” kind of way. The sweet nectarine goes so well with the litchi, giving this fragrance a distinct aroma that you’d be able to distinguish anywhere.

This YSL fragrance is neither subtle nor too overwhelming. It hits a perfect middle ground. I would recommend this for the fall time when the weather is cooling down, but not cold enough for the heavier, woody scents.

4. Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom & Honey Cologne

The most realistic nectarine fragrance out of the bunch, Nectarine Blossom & Honey by Jo Malone, is a fragrance true to its name. It is a very fruit-forward, clean, and fresh perfume. Like true Jo Malone fashion, this fragrance layers beautifully with other perfumes.

I know many people complain that Jo Malone fragrances aren’t very long-lasting. But keep in mind these scents were designed for layering. But if you’re looking for something sweet and fruity but not too heavy, this is the peachy fragrance for you.

5. Mark Des Vince Floral 250 Concentrated Perfume

Last but not least, we have a fragrance oil. If you decide to purchase the Jo Malone scent I previously recommended, I suggest pairing it with Mark Des Vince Floral 250 Concentrated Perfume.

This perfume comes in the form of a concentrated oil that elevates any scent you layer over it, adds a touch of sweetness, and makes it last much longer. It also helps that it’s affordable, so you won’t be spending much to give your fragrances a little extra something.
