Nude by Rihanna is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women. Nude was launched in 2012. Top notes are Guava, Pear and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Gardenia, Orange Blossom and Jasmine Sambac; base notes are Vanilla Orchid, Sandalwood and Musk.

Rihanna launches Nude, the third fragrance that bears her name (the first was Reb'l Fleur, and Rebelle was the second). Nude by Rihanna is a sweet floral – fruity fragrance with a vanilla background. With its woody and skin musky notes, the fragrance transmits intimacy and a feeling of bare skin and nakedness.

Fruity aromas of guava, mandarin and pear are located at the opening of the composition. The heart is blended out of white flowers: gardenia petals, velvety Sambac jasmine and creamy orange blossom. The base consists of sandalwood, vanilla orchid and "second skin" musk.

Nude by Rihanna is available as 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

Jantete

This was definitely one of my favorite perfumes but I smelled it recently and it was too strong and gave me a headache.
Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a long lasting vanilla scent.

Mairaxx

Creamy, cheap guava. But I love it. Maybe because it takes me back to being 18.

SaraSmellsGood

I really like the notes of this perfume but I wish there was a more sophisticated version of it, the notes are super cheap smelling, synthetic and headache inducing.. every time I wear it my husband tell me pls don’t wear it again 🥲 lol I think it’s also because of where I live is very hot and humid place so it smells extra annoying.. but it has that weird burning plastic smell to it that just ruins all the goodness of the notes which in theory sound soooo good together, like a fruity floral musky supple dream.. I really wish there was a refined natural smelling version of it.

Quantaphia

this fragrance made me realize how much i disliked guava in perfumes. man, it throws the whole scent off for me. it's still a nice, comforting scent though-probably the best from this line.

Afranomenal

Nice fruity scent for the regular day.

gabija424

It's a good, basic scent c:

Flexwithviv

Like someone below said it lasts all but 5 minutes. I find it hard to believe there is no patchouly in it.

Gionnijulius1820

I've liked this perfume since I was a young girl and my mother got me the Rihanna rebel gift set for Christmas. It's very soft, sweet, & comforting. You get some pear a little guava and sandlewood to start, then it dries down more floral/warm, with the vanilla orchid, musk, sandlewood, jasmine and Gardenia. It's simple, it's pretty, it last about 3-4hrs on clothes, but don't waste your time spraying on skin, instead just pear with a similar scented body cream or lotion. I will always love Rihanna rebel line! I believe they are all really good for what they are.

Aquapinkmoon

this is delicious, super pretty and juicy scent I literally want to smell like this all the time. The name nude is very fitting, it’s so soft, the guava and vanilla orchid are the main notes I can smell. I might have to grab it before it’s all sold out, just smells like a gorgeous woman. I’d wear this year round but I think this would be especially perfect for dates.

Eribec E.

I bought this 1. because its Rihanna and 2. read very good reviews about this being sexy, warm, cozy like a naked woman blah blah, but I have to say that I was really looking forward for it to smell like guava or sandalwood or the orange but neither of those notes are perceived in this fragrance, a real bummer as the notes are very alluring. All I smell its a sweet generic perfume, like what any young girl is wearing now days. It lacks depth, its not interesting. The bottle is pretty but I think this will remain as a work place fragrance or a casual night with friends type of frangrance as its inoffensive and unnoticed. Although I have to say, loooved Rogue from her, now that one is very impressive and has a luxurious presence. Will restock on that one for sure.

rihanna’s singular flop

sabs1205

WHY do they discontinue my favorite perfumes?! This one was my go-to in 2014, and now, I buy every fragrance mist that I can find at any local Marshall’s, TJ Maxx, and Burlington stores.

The guava, pear, and vanilla make this perfume sexy AF. So comforting and a powdery hit. It just reminds me of Rihanna. It lasts long and is a delight! One of my favorites.

Tashateex

I had this fragrance a very long time ago but always remember it.

A nice fruity floral that can be worn anywhere and time. It's not a stand out type of fragrance but it is very pretty.

I'm looking out for this one to repurchase but cannot find it.

Heyyall

I don't know what it is, but this one lasts on me for 8 hours. People complimented me all day. The fruity opening stayed throughout the wear and warmed up a little with the orange blossom and sandalwood towards the end of it. I'm very surprised at how long this lasted. It is fresh, floral, fruity, and has depth. I really like this one.

Fragnant

It starts out VERY flirty then becomes dryer sheets in 5 minutes. Like a quickie that puts you to sleep but you know the man is still up playing video games.

pinkstate

This is one of my favorite celebrity perfumes. The mix of guava and pear with the vanilla orchid is magical. It's aquatic, sweet and juicy- great for the summer. Jimmy Choo Stars is one of my top favorite fragrances and this some how reminds me of it.

5enna

i just cant forget this perfume since the day i smelled it at 11 year old.

Joyfulsmells2

This and Diamond Petals have a simular scent.
Smells really nice and has an innofensive soft vanilla guava scent.😍

gemeljoseph

Got this from a discounted fragrance store on sale and boy am I glad I didn’t pay big money for it. Love the scent but it lasts all of five minutes on my skin even when I try using nonscented lotion or oil as a base before spraying the fragrance on. Wish this had better staying power. Open to any layering combos that help this last longer. At this point I’m trying to finish the bottle so I can throw it away.

Perfumeaddict84

This fragrance has a juicy opening and a nice, sweet powdery drydown, I love the way it smells enough to have 1 huge bottle and a smaller one.

Abbaloney

It is a beautiful scent. Loved it in my early 20s but during this time i stopped wearing due to personal reasons. But since now im in a better mind set... i still love this scent. Its so beautiful and soft in the winter. Its a calming, inviting and pretty scent. I wear it during the day at work as its a pretty inoffensive fragrance. But its an all year round and can wear it night/day time. They better keep producing this cos i will keep buying!

LiliiiS

I didn't expect to like this one as much as I do. it's clean yet smooth and comforting. Rihanna Nude is very fruity when first sprayed. I can easily detect pear, guava and some orange. bright,sweet, uplifting and almost juicy. but fruity notes calm down within a few minutes and it becomes a smooth scent of mainly white flowers and just a hint of pear in a creamy musky vanilla base. white florals are not overpowering, sharp or soapy here. it's more like a gardenia and Jasmine scented body lotion so even people that don't usually like floral perfumes might like this one.
give it a try if pear+white flowers+vanilla is your thing or if you're into soft,clean and sweet fragrances. I think it's a very safe option if you want to buy perfume as a gift for someone. it's pleasant and easy to like. ageless and wearable all around the year however it gets muted and too sheer in very cold weather.it's also a great choice to wear around the house. longevity isn't bad but it stays very close to skin. whenever I wear it my husband comments your shampoo and body lotion smell great.it seems like he doesn't notice it's my perfume.
If you like Rihanna Nude and want some other perfumes in the same vibe try Katy Perry Meow and Jessica Simpson Fancy Love. both are more fruity and less floral than this one but all in all they have a lot in common
یه عطر ساده ولی خیلی دوست داشتنی. لطیف، تمیز و شیرینه و برخلاف یسری عطرهای تمیز دیگه که سرد یا شارپ هستن، این نرمه و راحت و یجورایی آرامش ببخش. وقتی تازه اسپری میشه شیرین و میوه ایه و براحتی میشه گلابی، گواوا و یکمم پرتقال رو تشخیص داد اما بعد چند دقیقه میوه ها کمرنگتر میشن و رایحه غالبش میشه گلهای سفید به همراه یکم گلابی در بستری نرم و لطیف و خامه ای از وانیل و مشک. گلهای سفید اینجا شارپ و خیلی قوی یا صابونی نیستن. بیشتر شبیه لوسیون بدنی با بوی یاس و گاردنیاست درنتیجه اگه عطرهای گلی دوس ندارید باز ممکنه از این خوشتون بیاد. موندگاریش رو پوست من بد نیست اما پخش چندانی نداره و فقط نزدیک به پوست حس میشه. از اون عطراست که برای همه سنین میتونه مناسب باشه و چهارفصل قابل استفادست هرچند تو هوای خیلی سرد، ضعیفتر و ملایمتره
بعنوان هدیه برای کسی که سلیقه عطریش رو نمیدونید گزینه خیلی خوبیه و همچنین اگه عطرهای گلی، میوه ای، وانیلی دوس دارید یا دنبال عطری میگردید که بشه راحت تو خونه استفاده کرد توصیه میکنم امتحانش کنید

Jantete

This is very long lasting! Scent is like sweet and fruity
I put it on at 12 in the afternoon and it was still on my skin at 12 at night

Lovescents3

Pleasant soft white florals. Easy reach for wearing to bed.
Too unassuming for me to wear elsewhere. Doesn’t last.

child0fthecorn

I received this bottle as a gift, and the scent wasn't for me. I personally didn't get any fruity notes. Its hard to describe... but to me it smelled like a natural body odor of sorts... not off-putting but I didn't favor it. Gave it to a friend who enjoyed it.

tundelili

I really love this scent, and I've been looking for it for a while, but it's not available in my country anymore. I had it when it came out, it was one of my first conscious perfume purchases, and zhis fragrance got me hooked. Since then I love pear notes, JPG LaBelle was my next favourite. I hope I'll find this perfume somewhere on the internet, I miss it, brings back memories.

Tooturntt

This was my first more mature "young lady" scent. My then bf now husband bought it for my 20th birthday. It's a gorgeous light fruity floral. The guava is bright almost juicy and adds a freshness to the gardenia & jasmine. I will always have this in my collection.

kellyrwallis

I have only tried 3 of Rihanna’s perfumes. This, Reb’l Fleur and Rebelle. Out of the 3, this is my favourite. This perfume is nothing groundbreaking but it’s still really really lovely. It’s a delicate scent. Sweet but not too much. The pear balances it out nicely. It’s gentle and pretty and natural. I really like it. Think I got about 3 hours out of this and the projection isn’t great. It’s inoffensive, perfect to wear in an office and suits all weathers. The bottle shape is awkward and impractical though.

JaneDough

This smells sooo good! I can’t wait to wear it in warmer weather, we are having weird weather lately where I’m at, shorts one day, winter coat the next! Anyway, it’s a fruity, floral, musky scent that I adore! I don’t usually go for celeb perfumes, but I’ve purchased 3 from Rihanna and I love them all! I’ve tried Britney’s stuff and I just can’t get along with it, but these are great especially for the price point! Not too hard to find, I’ve seen this one pop up lately at Burlington. I’m after her Rebelle one next!

mnkfragrantica

I absolutely adore Nude. It's such a great fragrance for the office or school. It's noticeable, but not overpowering. The pear, orange and gardenia make this a nice Spring/Summer scent, but I personally prefer to use Reb'l Fluer in Summer over Nude. The middle and base notes ground this scent and prevent the top notes from being too fruity or immature. Lasts all day on me, but ymmv.

f1abz

I'm not sure how I feel about it, for me it is heavily musky and white floral - I guess the chemistry with my skin is different. It is not bad but it is not really my cup of tea, but I must admit that it does suit the night and autumn/winter as it a bit heavy rather than light and summery.

SerenaLovesKanye

Soft creamy musky gardenia mingled with the sharpness of fruit in the opening. Lovely. I could actually smell the guava 2-5 min after spraying. Perfect and cozy. Treat yourself with a warm bath, moisturize and then Nude by Rihanna. Lovely base for other scents to spring up from.

Momo2023

It's very nice and simple something to wear everyday & good for layering

enpointe

This is as close as Rihanna gets to a skin scent, and I must say, I really like it. It's floral and sweet, very inoffensive scent great for indoors and warmer months. I can't wait to try this in the summer. I felt that wearing this in the dead of winter is a waste because it gets lost quickly around me.

When I first wore it, I thought it smelled like Victoria's Secret Bare and was surprised that I didn't see Bare on this page as a similar scent. However, I pulled out my bottle of Bare and realized it's not that similar. Bare is sweeter, but it definitely has the same vibes. If you are into Bare or the old Heavenly collection at VS, I think you will enjoy this one as well.

cypriotsister

Can someone please confirm if this is discontinued? It seems to be sold out everywhere for ages and I just sold my backup bottle ARGHHHH

SheRays

A sweet warmness wrapped around a bright fruitiness...the guava really comes through in the opening. I enjoy this far more than the original. The bottles are gorgeous , just not very practical. Very awkward trying to hold when spraying out.

MistyDayyy

I adore this scent. I initially didn’t buy this perfume on purpose. I wanted another Rihanna perfume, but they only sold a set that included the entire collection. I used the other two for a long time and tried this one out because I couldn’t find the others.

This smells amazing! It quickly became my new favorite. I usually don’t get compliments on my perfume, but I’ve received so many when I wear this one. It’s a very sweet, yet clean (somewhat powdery too) scent in my opinion. I honestly don’t smell any florals. I almost never buy the same perfume twice after running out, but I’ve done so multiple times for this one. I also usually don’t stick to a perfume for longer than 6 months, but this one has really stuck with me. It lasts a very long time on skin and clothes. A little too long honestly, so definitely don’t spray a lot.

It’s very affordable too because it’s mainly at stores like Walmart, Tjmaxx, Marshall’s, etc.

Jenny00382

Just bought this after watching a YouTube video about it and I am in LOVE!! It’s such a fun yet sexy scent . It first hits you with a fruity note, I would say white peach and dries on the skin to a very beautiful sweet scent . I don’t get too much floral which I am happy about as I hate floral fragrances. This is definitely an affordable perfume everyone needs to have in their collection, especially if you are just starting out!

hotbaby1

Just spotted a bottle at Burlington today. I was hesitant but I watched a few YouTube while in the store, and ended up buying it. This is a first impression, but I have a positive one! It’s definitely different than reb’l fleur. I could wear Nude every morning to go to the office, and it definitely smells like a warmer weather fragrance. I don’t know where i get that, but it smells citrusy to me! I can’t wait to start wearing it in the spring. First spray on my wrist and I like it a lot. This is my second Rihanna fragrance. I have a bottle of reb’l fleur. And I never buy celebrity fragrances, but Rihanna nailed it.

ag333

I wore it all summer and got compliments all the time. one person followed my scent trail and said I smell like vanilla. thankfully I don't get much of the middle notes/white florals. I get the light fruits on the top and a beautiful creamy vanillas in the dry down. This can be layered easily. your skin but way better. I used half my bottle in the summer time, but this would really work anytime the weather is a little warmer. doesn't last long but reapplying isn't an issue to me. she's a keeper

lolarosebloom

this is juicier than I expected!

I recently received this in a gift set and I have already used about 3 mL of the 10 mL travel mini. this is a fruity floral, done right. i was excepting a fruity Warm Vanilla Sugar type of fragrance, but I am getting mostly guava, pear, and white florals (mainly orange blossom & gardenia), not much vanilla or even musk; which does not make an appearance until about 2 hours into the wear.

this is a refined, demure version of Reb'l Fleur. this smells NOTHING like the fragrances its compared to above, so please disregard those (especially not Flowerbomb... like are you serious?), you can layer this with anything and it will not clash.

not a good performer, but it is not for that. Nude is definitely something you wear to run errands or to the bed 😉. it's inoffensive, and impossible to overspray (may turn a little sour on skin if you have been sweating, though). also, the sillage is soft but if someone is standing close to you, they will smell you and they will think you smell good!

7/10 💗

Fatima1219

You CANNOT go wrong with the Rihanna line! This one is, probably, my second favorite of hers after Rihanna Rebelle. This fragrance always exudes class to me. Class, with a touch of innocent sexiness. I wore this yesterday, while visiting my husband in the hospital--he adores Rihanna's fragrances. The gardenia and jasmine notes always bring me joy! This is a burst of feminine grace--and, I believe it to be a safe blind buy! It projects well and has decent longevity. Very Nice!

hausofdarlingperfumier

NSFW - I am Nude 😊 This juice is simply the best for the juicy fruit and white floral composition. At the top, Nude has guava, pear, and orange that emit a dripping juice feeling. I imagine cutting fruit and letting the juices flow. The heart is composed of velvety jasmine, orange blossom, and gardenia which adds air and delicacy while being smooth and silky. As the fragrance dries you get more creaminess from the sandalwood and sheer musk while the sweetness keeps going with kisses of vanilla. Nude creates a cocoon of self-love and divinity.

Gemsense

Don't over spray this one, it will turn sour. One spritz where you want it and you'll get the fresh musk scent that's lightly sweetened. I find the lotion lasts longer than the perfume.

fragrancebaddie99

I love this perfume! I first got it in a travel set of 3 which also included Reb'l Fleur and Reb'l Fleur Love Always. Nude is definitely my favourite out of the 3. I'm not a huge fan of white florals, but it's not super strong, and the fruity opening really helps balance it out. It's definitely more of a daytime scent in my opinion. I recently bought a full-size bottle, which I will wear to work and to run errands. It's fresh and feminine. Good blind buy!

jil489

In the drydown, I detect a marshmallow note. It's funny because there is no marshmallow in the notes. It does smell cheap because it has a strong chemically note to the marshmallow. However, if you love marshmallows, it is nice.

Aiga1

Can't really put my finger on it, there's a sliiight resemblence of the original Rebel, but it disappears quickly and then I don't sense anything anymore. Her other fruity perfumes are better.

Jamiekerr

I love the way this smells on me, a good basic fresh, inoffensive daily scent. It smells quite citrusy, fresh white floral when you first spray and dries down to a sweet skin scent Doesn't last super long but a great perfume for school or work, I wear it most days. Performs as you'd expect for the price but I really like it.

Brebre1213

I love the original so I was so excited to try this one. It was very sour on my skin there wasn't anything special about it. I thought with the name it would smell like a skin scent and clean with the notes. I was wrong.

likesleet

this was cute. it smells a cheap, which it is so who cares. sunscreen, peach, kiwi, guava, tropical fruits for opening and middle and then it settled into a powdery, chemical white floral. kind of unpleasant

LoveScents9

I added this fragrance to my top 10. It's definitely a spray & go fragrance. I love how light it smells. Reminds me of Jimmy Choo, Flowerbomb & Bella Rosa. Nude is sweet and powdery. I love it!

fformoso88

Out of all the Rihanna scents (which I have owned out of Rebelle and Rebelle fluer) nude is my favorite. I didn’t care for the other two as much. This is nice and fruity, sweet but honestly very basic. I wore it today after not wearing it for a while. It was fine… it’s nice for summer. Not my favorite though. Not very memorable. Nothing noteworthy to me. Just another basic, celebrity fragrance. Also doesn’t last that great on me. I would wear this to the gym or to run errands or for days I’m not really caring. Lol

Edit: definitely going in my give away/ get rid of pile too synthetic and alcohol smelling.

blackcat02

This smells so good!! The opening is very fruity and dries down into a pleasing white floral skin scent. Super nice and casual, would be good for daily wear :)

mussulisa

It's not very fruity in my opinion, it's a sweet floral, ,basic scent. I don't really smell any of the top notes tbh. It lasts pretty long, especially on clothes. The bottle is very ugly though xD I was expecting it to be more fruity so I was a little disappointed.

marigoldmarigold

overwhelming and smells cheap :(

Atomikbomb_

My friend wore this tonight, and I became very familiar with it after an hour of jiu-jitsu training (you know, that'll do it)! Initially I thought it was her shampoo, and she obviously sprayed this in her hair, because my face was right up in it. It's fruity, fresh and pretty subtle. I'm not sure I would've noticed it if I were literally right in the thick of it.

I asked her what it was, and 'Do you like white florals?' - she gave me a politely puzzled look and I just said 'Your fragrance smells like jasmine! :)' She showed me the bottle after class, and sure enough, she had the body spray, which I expected because it wasn't very concentrated. The EDP is probably worth getting, but the spray was nice for a gym setting.

This is really friendly, but somewhat indistinct. It's general white florals, indiscernable fruit (that doesn't mean it smells bad at any level though, merely that nothing sticks out clearly) and a familiar woody base. It's quite like many Bath and Body Works or VS sprays, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Instead of "vanilla orchid" (orchid is so inconsistent in fragrances, it's interpreted differently all the time and there's no real orchid scent or essential oil), I simply think this smells of vanilla mixed alongside the white florals.

It's quite decent, and I'd recommend this to anyone looking for an understandable, feminine easy-reach 🌸

Arunas.K

Gentle sweet scent that is perfect for spring, summer, early fall. Has this uplifting feeling to it. Smells of Pears and White Florals. Slightly soapy.

It is a contemporary female fragrance, which is fun and easy to wear. Not overpowering.

It is not groundbreaking or anything but has a nice clean aura. Highly recommended!

chakukan

Love the opening but it fades quickly to a Bounce dryer sheet. Its inoffensive and perfect for daytime easy wear :) I like dryer sheets.

Olyve

The first spray is pleasant and fruity then dries down to an inoffensive white floral vanilla.

It’s not unique or ground breaking, but it’s a lovely day time skin scent. At the price, I’m happy to overspray.

_NicoleNonya

I scored this bottle for $15 @ Ross.
Excellent value.
Initial sprays I got the fruit notes & orange blossom the most.
For the dry down musk was the most prominent note.
Silage varies based on how many sprays. This isn't a beast performer but lovely in it's own right.
Since my youngest son had a heart transplant & breathing issues, perfect to wear around him as it doesn't upset his lungs since it sits close to the skin, a beautiful intimate scent.
Would definitely buy again for the price I paid.

Ollie_perfume

Really like it!! Maybe more than Rebl Fleur too.

LayersAndLayers

Clean and fruity with a sparkling note. Nothing special, still quite pleasant, but I have to be in the mood for it.

averyaslo

I use this for the office. It's understated, bright, and pretty. Before reading the notes, I thought of sweet peach with white floral musk. I think it smells very grown woman, but the fruits keep it from smelling like your grandmother's perfume.

seidavee

I maily use this for everyday whatever-wear. It's more like a body spray. This is a casual scent that smells really good! A clean mix of fruity and sweet, almost soapy. Young and soft. I usually like to pair it with other vanilla or amber heavy scents.

At first, it's a little sharp to me. Almost like an alcoholic floral bomb that tickles the nose, but of course giving it time to settle really softens and sweetens it up.
I wish I could smell the guava, and especially the pear. I think its the mandarin I catch mostly; it's like the smell of the sweet and sour, sticky, bitter rind. I know that sounds bad, but it's just how these types of scents tend to develop on me.... I'm not the biggest fan of that part, but it's not terrible and it turns out nicely since I do get compliments from my beloved when I wear it.

After about 15 minutes or so I totally lose the sharp fruitiness and it starts to become a sweet and pleasant floral... powdery jasmine and gardenia, and I can catch notes of the orchid and sandalwood. After a few hours (3 or 4), all the heavy white floral fades out and I'm left with the best part of the scent... a creamy, soft and clean, musky jasmine-orchid, and sandalwood that I think really deepens the whole thing.

Genip

This is the cheaper version of Flowerbomb by Victor and Rolf.

Hunnynpink

The opening is bright slightly tart fruity berries on my skin. I smell raspberry maybe its mandarin and pear then a hint of sandalwood or orchid. It reminds me of a few other fragrances I have, Signorina Misteriosa, Tresor midnight rose minus rose and Angel Nova. I'm giving this to my daughter because it's soft with short longevity.

CarmenTudor

Nude is a soft, fruity, sweet, and comfy fragrance. The pros, nice and inexpensive. The cons, its longevity (2 hours).

theoneandonlykatyc

I love this scent, it has the same dna as rebel fleur but its more sweet and less tabacoo-y

Peaches77

Light fresh scent. Perfect for spring. Reminds me of just getting out of the bath, clean and light.

fgamz

Rihanna makes perfumes with amazing notes and blends. Honestly something high end perfumers should take note, however the end results are not that great. Her perfumes need more balance and more work in them. The gardenia note should have been more prominent in this perfume, creating a dimension and also a change within the perfumes heart notes. I would have loved a creamy, Guava airy like scent. I feel like if these ingredients were more high quality it would have made a massive difference, these are synthetic ingredients which I get I mean celebrity fragrances aren't usually too expensive but I think she sold herself short here.

All her perfumes have great potential but always fall short to me. This definitely did despite having amazing notes I thought would be an amazing but was too sweet to the point where it became somewhat powdery and pretty average. I love Rihanna but wished she put more effort into her perfumes.

LittleMissYellow

One of my favourite casual outing scents! A beautiful floral.. slightly fruity frag. I don't get that screechiness that others smell.. I'm just enjoying the heck out of it🤣 On me, it's super long lasting so i'm super happy when i can still smell it on me after a long day😁 It's so feminine... I wear this in warmer weather when i can go out and wear dresses and leave my hair down and feel pretty haha. 10/10 for me!!

taerose

yummy cooler version of fluer to me, easy to wear and layer

doesn’t last long but it’s so nice I don’t mind respraying,
easy blind buy

angelicalisseth

really soft and easy to wear, i love it for around the house. only thing is it disappears in like an hour :(

sparklyunicorn

This one really surprised me. It is NOT as light as I thought it would be. It is actually quite strong, and projects well. It is very celebrity/generic initially, but leaving it on till the dry-down actually helped convince me to keep it. It is powdery, feminine and classy. It is really nice, although somewhat 'basic', but I can't deny that it smells great and is a STEAL for the $10 I spent.

cassiesta

This is ok. Similar to Reb'l Fleur, but it doesn't bother me the way that one does. I'm not sure exactly what it is that bothers me about that one, but I suspect it's the combination of fruits and patchouli in it. This is lighter as well.

desturner866

I have to say I don’t really understand why this perfume has such positive reviews. It doesn’t smell bad, but I don’t find it to be anything special. I guess I can see why some would compare it to Flower Bomb. It has the sweet floral thing going on, but I’d reach for Flower Bomb over this one any day.

Pebblesjebbles333

I blind bought this after watching several youtubers and reading lots of reviews. Boy, i’m glad I took the chance because it’s true that this really smells good! In fact I think this can be a perfect blind buy to give as a gift as I cannot imagine a lot of noses will hate this. This smells so feminine, dainty, clean and even classy in a quiet way. This is like a gentle scent that is comforting and makes you feel good. Perfect for office, running errands or after shower. I like a few of Rihanna perfumes like Reb’l Fleur and Riri…my next blind buy will be Kiss and Crush. So excited!

This is a beautiful scent, and it has such a "womanly" aura to it, think "your skin, but better". The opening is a fruity floral with mainly guava, mandarin and orange blossom, and it dries down to a gorgeous blend of sandalwood, vanilla, powder, vanilla orchid and musk. It's all the notes that I like and they work together really well. I think the bottle is quite an accurate representation of how this smells. It is beautiful, simple and inoffensive. Nude is clean, powdery, musky, warm vanillary, classy, comforting. It's definitely got a sexy side to it as well, as it gives me quite an intimate vibe, either a date night scent or snuggle scent, but it's also one that is classy and inoffensive enough to wear to work or for everyday wear. Average longevity, about 3-4 hours, but it's got decent sillage. Overall I think this is such a beautiful scent, the first time I tried it I found it really boring but I love it now and think it has lots of layers and this sense of complexity to it that I appreciate now. Very well done for a celebrity fragrance.

I have all of Rihanna’s fragrances and this is my least favorite. It smells really good, but it’s too powdery for me and sometimes when I wear it I feel like a grandma. I gave it to my younger sister and on her it smells better. I would definitely try before buying. 5/10

DaniBear1121

I get the comparison to Flowerbomb, and even though it's not listed there is definitely patchouli in this, which makes me sad because I'm so sensitive to it, it overwhelms the rest of the fragrance for me. Glad I didn't pay a lot for this. It's powdery and earthy (not in a pleasant way to me), and I get absolutely no gardenia which is disappointing. I will likely be selling or giving this away because I just won't use it.

natfran98

Managed to get a 30ml bottle of this for £10. It’s not groundbreaking or unique but I do think it’s really quite nice. It’s sweet and fruity but somehow manages to not be sickly or cloying or heavy. It’s light, smooth and creamy. No alcohol smell or sharp-tartness. It’s fruity vanilla essentially, with a gorgeous juicy pear and guava combo with a very very slight sparkling/fizzy effect from the Jasmine. The gardenia and vanilla orchid are what smooth this off and warm it up. It’s a really ‘cozy’ fragrance. No headaches here. Definitely not complaining for the price. I’m not the best judge of longevity or silage because my skin cycles through fragrances super fast, but I’ve sprayed it on the box which I’ve left about an arms length away and I’m getting very strong wafts. I do get the comparison to a really nice deodorant or skin care product, but if it smells nice it’s hard for me to care too much.

Perfume-me1

It reminds me of that car smell difuser...in my opinion its over sweet cloying smell , sorry Rih , i perfer that one that u put on yourself Love don't be shy by Kilian

adamh9201

Very fresh and some added sweetness from the sandalwood and orchid! This scent is great! Not superstar longevity but it works for what you pay for it. Rihanna has the best celebrity fragrances ever

tsubaki3031

Fruity, sweet and crowd pleasing in generic way. Dry down is a nice creamy vanilla but for me silage, longevity and projection were quite lacking. If you get a very good price it's worth a try but not intriguing like the flankers in this line.

Not_a_perfume_junkie

Lovely sweet and creamy.

handkmommy

Something in this reminds me of Dior dna. I do

yeesa_

My favorite out of the three in this line. It is light but projects beautifully and doesn't give me a headache. Longevity is also good 6+ hours. perfect fruity floral for the warmer weather

tippisdetermined

My favorite fragrance from Rihanna. A beautiful spring and summer scents that pairs with some of BBW fragrance mists. I receive a lot of compliments when I pair this scent Golden Sunflower. Hate the bottle design - its hard for my to get a good spray with the bottle shape.

Mynotaur

Gentle and non-offensive. Not a head-turner but more of a bedroom fragrance (perhaps that’s why it’s called Nude!?) Honestly, this has big nuzzle-ability in my opinion. Very sexy but in an innocent way and worth the gamble as it’s inexpensive. Bottle is horrendous.

cherelune

I got Rihanna Nude earlier in my fragrance journey, after getting Reb'l Fleur and Rebelle (the latter is still a favorite comfort scent, especially during cooler or rainy weather). I don't find the three really related scent-wise, and while pleasant enough, Nude is the least memorable for me. While the other two have more distinct personalities, I find this more nondescript. It is closer to what I'd expect of a celebrity fragrance -- pleasant, sweet, and inoffensive, but doesn't really stand out.

The dominant notes I get from Nude are the vanilla orchid and a fruity note that smells like peach or apricot to me but must be the guava. It's not a bright and juicy fruitiness, nor is it thick or syrupy. It settles into a slightly powdery musky sweetness. I like it enough to wear at home during the day when it's not too hot, but I don't really reach for it often. I'll finish what remains of my bottle but won't repurchase.

KayleeAp

A sweet and fruity perfume. I swear I can smell a little patchouli in this. I definitely see the resemblance to flowerbomb in this one. I can only take flowerbomb in small doses, and would never purchase a full bottle of it so I’m glad I have this one in my collection and it’s reasonably priced.

Kiti89

I have my days where I like this and days where I think it's just "okay".

It's sweet, almost sickly sweet sometimes, fruity and... that's it. I don't think it's outstanding but a good everyday option.

I wish I got more of the white floral mids because all three are some of my favourite notes.

I think I only get the guava and vanilla orchid so it's just a bit basic and sweet. I'm nearing the end of my bottle of this and am quite sure I won't repurchase.

Gingernspicex

Blind buy: This is a pleasant fragrance but nothing amazing. It smells fresh and sweet but not too sickly, the top notes are fruity and sweet but the dry down is musky, inviting and the sweetness is subtle. For me, it is ideal for indoors/day time and just out of the shower, this isn’t something you’d wear to get attention or to make a statement rather to have a nice clean smell for yourself or if you if were to hug or be fairly close someone. Netflix’s and chill with your other half kinda vibe..
I prefer the Reb’l Fleur but that is quite a statement evening fragrance, that I could see being almost nauseating if you wore it too much, this on the other hand is like the “good girl” version. It’s a safe blind buy and very affordable, even if you did just want to try a blind buy, you wouldn’t be out of pocket. Pleased I bought it, but probably won’t buy another one once it’s used up!

rihabi

The best shot among the Rebel trio from her. I find it guava juicy, fruity, delicate and jasminy. At least the jasmine is what stays the most after hours according to me. Satisfying sillage.

bel.gravia

Primarily woody musky with strong guava vanilla undertones. This is not as light as I expected which is a bonus :) the advertisement and campaign match the scent. The bottle is gorgeous. I own rebl fleur, nude bears the fruitiness of it. I own love always, nude has hints of that floral nectar. I own rebelle, nude shares the addictive vanilla. All 4 are absolutely beautiful.
I am quite obsessed with this one. So delicious 😍

Palmer Eldritch

Super girly, beginner-friendly feminine fragrance.

An absolutely A+ delicious guava opening (that doesn't last at all) developing into a sweet bouquet of powdery, synthetic white florals similar to the ones you find in cheap LVEB clones.

This is not done well. The price point isn't THAT cheap. 'Nude' extremely generic, but it's generic done poorly.

Here's generic done right: Sofia by Sofia Vergara.
Highly recommend that fragrance over this one.

takema

This was a very disappointing fragrance for me. Easily the worst Rihanna fragrance I have tried. I wasn’t a fan of Rebelle either, but that was just personal taste. This one just smells like sugar water. All I get from it is sweet. Not gourmand sweet, not fruity or candy sweet, just generic, boring sweet. The performance was abysmal on me, it disappeared in the first hour. The notes and great luck with a few other Rihanna fragrances had me thinking this was going to be an easy love. Alas we were not to be. I did finish the 50ml bottle I had. I oversprayed the heck out of it and wore it around the house.

n_a_phillips

A bright mix of orangey-guava and white floral notes, with a soft and powdery drydown. Not as interesting as the other two fragrances in this Rihanna perfume family, but still very light and pleasant.

xx2901

Nude by Rihanna is powdery musky sweetness with fresh flowers and juicy fruits. Sandalwood is there since first spray, also I can sense strawberry type of fruity sweetness and vanilla musk. It's not a crisp scent but still fresh and reminds me a little of sweet baby powder. I think it's my favourite perfume of all Rihanna's collection, this is crowdpleaser and smells more expensive than most celebrity perfumes.

bolla2909

I bought this last year on a whim. I never do that. But this was not expensive and immediately pleasing to my nose. A couple of days later I started having doubts for whatever reasons and wasn't sure why I had bought it. Instead of giving it away I decided to throw it on before working out to see if I'd like it again. A couple of weeks in I realised I had put it on every time I worked out and it had become my "gym" fragrance. This is by no means sporty or gym like though. Whenever I sniff it now I am taken back to working up a sweat and it really does put me in the perfect workout mood. That was not at all the intention when I bought it but I'm very happy it ended up that way.

The scent itself, like I said, is no freshie or anything I'd associate with the gym. To my nose the notes in the list smell like peaches or apricots with lots of cream even if none of those are listed. It's fruity but not tropical or tart, but rather soft and creamy with a sweet musk in the end. It's very pleasing, not overly sweet and definitely has a character.

I found it to be perfect for working out because there is a sort of calmness to it. Even when doing hard work physically I still want to stay calm in my head, it helps me push through the challenging parts of the workouts with mindfulness and serenity. It helps me stay focused, so to speak. It's also not too sweet so it doesn't get cloying when I'm pushing it. Nude, as the name suggests, is not a loud fragrance so I am definitely not leaving a huge scent trail behind me, at most people around me would get a quick light whiff if they come close, but that's it. That is a good thing for the gym, as I don't want to offend people.

I have tried to use it before going out at night but that was just wrong. This is my workout buddy. All I smell when I put it on is pushups, squats, yoga, hiking and the stair master. But when recommending it to others I'd definitely say it would be perfect for many occasions, staying in in your pj's or when going out for a fun night, it's very versatile and easy to wear. Yummy enough for a date, smooth enough to put on when relaxing at home.

This lovely little treat ended up being perfect for my gym bag and I'm very pleased with that even if there is nothing remotely gym like about it, but for me it works perfectly. I definitely recommend giving it a sniff if you're looking for something creamy and plush 🍑

Heathrfeathr

The sweeter more innocent little sister to the in your face Reb’l Fleur. I prefer Nude because it’s more wearable and such a versatile easy reach. There’s also something unique about it as well. I get so tired of the same ole same ole perfumes that smell so alike but this one is a bit unique so definitely a keeper in my collection.

Jasmindee

Sensual, feminine and elegant.

This is a fresh sheets and silky nightwear kind of fragrance. Light, soft and innocently sexy. Opening spray for me is pear and guava, but I weirdly wouldn't call this a tropical fragrance. The fruity blast at the start is mellowed out with creamy vanilla and soothing orchid, making this a lovely, feminine fragrance.

Nude to me is like stepping into a fluffy robe after bathing in a bath-tub full of luxurious floral scented bubbles, then slathering on a vanilla body butter while your partner is behind you with their arms around your waist, telling you how good you smell. She's sexy without trying and suits all moods and occasions.

I am in nothing but a t-shirt right now after showering from being out in the sticky, humid heat we're having in the UK right now and went to cuddle my boyfriend and he told me how nice I smelt without me prompting him or asking him what he thought - so that's a win in my eyes!

I have to admit, I hated Rebelle yet I loved Reb'l Fleur. Nude might just have taken the lead with her understated elegance and sexiness.

Edit: This is one of the few perfumes I've re-purchased several times. I absolutely love how fresh, clean and feminine this makes me feel. It's my absolute go-to when I'm fresh out of the shower. My other half constantly compliments me and tells me I smell great when I wear Nude.

Oohsmellthisone

I can’t stop smelling myself. That’s how ya know ya got a good one. I love vanilla perfumes. To me they are so calming, relaxing, soothing, can be worn anytime, and don’t give me a headache(migraines suck). This is a vanilla that’s not too sweet and has some depth to it. Very affordable, but smells expensive! I love this one!

RachelDesiree

This perfume is nice for a Young ladies that are transitioning into wearing "grown women" perfumes. This is nice for that Young lady that wants to start testing her body chemistry with perfumes but for the 28+ thats doing a quick store run, maybe lounge day with the family. Also a perfume thats nice after a warm shower. Or a cuddly perfume/scent. Its very safe to wear. I'm currently shopping for perfumes, as I'm 29 going on more sexy ☺ lol. The older I become the more I realize that the Rihanna perfumes that I've invested in are not for that 29+ yr old that move around and that doesn't have time, all the time to whip out her spray and squirt here and there when running major errands. My ex boyfriend got me this when I was 2728 and I liked it then but again, maturity took over and now I where perfumes like DKNY and excelling. To me this perfume is 1 notch lower, as far as potency is concerned, than DKNY. But I out these in my "girl transitioning into a woman" and "women running quick errand" category. Perfumes that you should always keep on you if you don't want to use your "good stuff".

Imalthia

To me, this is a simple fruity musky scent. Not anything special or complex, I think that there are plenty of similar fragrances on the market right now. It's a nice, affordable summer fragrance. I like to throw this on when I'm about to hit the grocery store or run a quick errand or something. Longevity is about 3-4 hours.

kimberry2219

I haven’t smelled Rebelle yet but I like this perfume way better than Reb’l Fleur. That one made my stomach turn a bit. It’s not a bad smell I’m just not a fan of the combination of the notes. This one however is beautiful! A fruity floral but also pretty powdery, so it’s very romantic smelling. It reminds me a bit of black opium but a super powdery version of it. I think it’s the vanilla in the vanilla orchid. I blind bought this and I am glad I did!!! Safe blind buy if you don’t mind powdery romantic sweet scents.

star~kitty

LOL @ kitty’s smash-bang heel reviews. I’m here for them.

Unlike the first 2 heels, which challenge... nay, DARE me to wear them, and then punch me in the nose when I do, this heel is more like a silk slipper. Absolutely lovely.

I get white floral, maybe it’s guava, and vanilla. Very comforting and sweet. Perfect for office wear if you care about that. Sexy-sweet. Love it.

Phelpsee

My husband bought this for me last Christmas, beautiful perfume. It reminds me of prosecco and raspberries for some reason :) I just wish it had more longevity, and it would be perfect for me. The bottle looks stunning, but is such a pain to hold one handed and spray.

KittyDeBeauvoir

RIHANNA HEEL PERFUME TRILOGY SMASH-OUT

3.) Nude:

Alright, I'm going to be brave here and admit it - This is my absolute favourite of the three "Rihanna Heel" perfumes.
I know, I know. This isn't 'wild' like the other two, but it SHOOK me!

When I bought this, I was expecting an almost-nothing scent. It's advertised as a "skin scent" which, to me, reads as "weak".

No. Not the case here.

This has the MOST DELECTABLE fizzy-apricot-and-peach scent! I KNOW IT HAS NEITHER. WHAT IS THIS MAGIC?
I think it's the pear and guava, but I'm no expert.

Now here's the right shocker for me: It has vanilla orchid.
Listen. Vanilla orchid and I aren't friends. We met once, and I decided, "Pleasant for some, just not my type".
We met a few times later, and the b*tch slapped me across the face. Grinding my teeth, I lifted my chin and chose to be the bigger person, and simply walked away.
And here she is again.
Whole-heartedly apologising and giving me the most gentle, warm, safe hug.

This is more fruity than I anticipated. I just expected musk. I love musk, so that wouldn't disappoint me. I'm delighted with the added benefit of salivating fruit that's zesty, pretty, sophisticated, and unique. Again, very cozy.

Longevity is very decent. Awesome to smell on your bedsheets/night-clothes. Sillage is good, but not mind-blowing.

Despite this, I'm always here for it.

***

Kitty rating: 9.5/10.

mevans

Nude is lovely. It's sweet, creamy and fresh-floral and it carries like a classy, sophisticated fragrance but with just a little sexiness to stir the pot. Great performance on this. It was still there faintly the next morning. The bottle looks nice but is impractical. I have trouble gripping it when applying because my hand slides up while trying to press on the sprayer. I have to use both hands.

rosegoldrosie

I wore this after a really rough breakup, and it made me feel beautiful again, and was very comforting to me. I mainly smell white florals and vanilla, and a bit of musk on the dry down. It's comforting and powdery and soft and a very "clean" scent. I also smell some sunflowers in it but that could be because I used to buy myself sunflowers every week after the breakup and I associate it with that haha. The first time I smelt this I thought it was boring and meh but after getting myself a bottle and wearing it for a few months after a bad breakup it became one of my favourite scents.

YesVeruca

For a celebrity skin scent this is very nice. It’s a mild fruity vanilla that’s not cloying or too sweet thanks to the musk note. It sits on the skin and isn’t overwhelming or overpowering. The name is perfect because it’s like lingerie in perfume form. Rihanna seems to demand quality from her beauty branding and this is no exception.

JustSimpleThings

I've deleted my earlier review where I dragged this perfume down as 'typical celebrity scent'. I've tested it again today and I was very pleasantly surprised!

On me, this smells like a fuzzy, soft apricot/peach scent. The musk is definitely there in the base, but doesn't take away from the freshness of the apricot, just makes it... fuzzy.
This is a great scent for a warm humid summer day. A breath of fresh air. Like a peach ice tea.

Only negative is the longevity - only 2-3 hours on me.

Satinne

Ok, so i bought by a blind buy 3 fragrances from Rihanna today. This is one of them. (Nude, crush, rebelle)

Clean, sweet, powdery, fresh. The picture on the box pretty much describes how you feel when you smell it. :) Anyday - anywhere.

isabelleschou

Nude is HYGGE* in a bottle! Sunday morning ind bed, a lazy day in the couch wearing a soft sweater, a Spring day of intimacy, a Summer day of fun. It is beautiful, pretty, warm, comforting and feminine, mature but ageless, semi-sweet and clean with suggestions of underlying secrets and mysteries.
In Nude, fruity-floral and powdery-woody are best friends. Opposites attract and complement each other. There is a nod to the smells of Barbados, the orchid ties everything together, a smooth and creamy unison with a gentle hint of sharpness.
No single note ever becomes overpowering. It is fruity but not too fruity, it is floral but not too floral, it is powdery but not too powdery, it is woody but not too woody. It is sweet and friendly and at the same time secretive and mysterious, but not in an obvious way - only when you get close you sense the deeper daring nature beneath the pleasing, soft and pretty. It is morning and night, playful and serious, friendly and sensual, dusk bathed in light.
It has soft projection (Winter) and is long lasting as a skin scent. My boyfriend is nuts about this one, he even sprayed it on himself, and his skin amped up the sweetness a little more compared to mine.
I would wear this in the daytime in Spring and Summer, and when in the mood in Autumn and Winter. It is the perfect nude for more intimate occasions. It is safe and non-offensive for work and school.
* Hygge is a fundamental aspect of Danish culture, a concept that evokes coziness, a mood, particularly when relaxing with good friends or loved ones.

babyrose1985

Another gorgeous perfume from Rihanna, this is nothing ground-breaking like I found rebl fleur and love always to be (also found Rogue to be really outstanding too I just found that one a little to loud and brash for me), even though it isn't as amazing as those it is still a hell of alot better than alot of perfumes around this price range and even alot that are above, the scent is really really lovely. The only reason I can't buy this one is because my friend wears it it's her signature, very pretty perfume x

Jacquis

Nude is a beautiful, semi sweet orange blossom fragrance which brings me a lot of delight. It is not syrupy sweet but still sexy and clean. The longevity and projection are amazing in mild weather. Nude is more sophisticated than many of the sweet designer orange blossoms currently available. Great value. Very satisfying as a nighttime perfume as well.

Shan101beauty

A sweet everyday fragrance. I love it at first spray but not so much after a hour or two. I get mostly vanilla with a hint of the guava and pear. The white florals are also noticeable. An okay scent, nothing special

hazygem

On me this is all orange blossom. Weird! It’s very pretty but it might as well have been a soliflore.

sibaraa

A nice modern twist on gardenia. Lightened with the citrus. The guava is so nicely done. Like a fresh drink, There is a slight powderiness in it too. To me, the dominant note is gardenia but in a fresher way. This is so gorgeous smelling.

Bebe70

It's very - very sweet which I don't like. But...
It's the second celebrity perfume after B. Spears Believe that I've tried and smells so expensive while in fact it is not. A very sexy perfume of fine quality that lasts for hours.
I can't wear it, I will never buy it, but if you like this type, you will love it especially in cold winter evenings and...nights!

lnoskin

I received a decant of this in a swap and at first smell, I really liked it! Now that summer is here tried it again and realized it was pretty powdery and powdery scent make me extremely nauseous. I should have read the reviews more carefully before because a lot have you have pointed out the powdery-ness as well. If anyone is looking to try this out before committing to a full bottle, I have a 15ml decant up for swap in the US. If interested, feel free to PM me.

katy-n

I almost used up a smaller bottle of this. This is not my usual type of scent since I don't enjoy anything prominently sweet. I bought it because I ran out of casual perfumes and to me it smelled the best out the discount shelf in my local store. I use it when I travel, run small errands or have an outdoor workout; in short, situations when you don't want to waste expensive perfume. This scent is definitely not the embodiment of my personality, but it also does not conflict with it. It layers well with more expensive perfumes of this family (I tried spraying it on my whole body and adding a few dots of Etro Etra on my neck, wrists and so on - it worked well).

I'd say the quality of this product is nice, it makes me want to check out more celebrity and fashion brand perfumes. The composition is not the most interesting (I don't think it was meant to, given the name), but it's smooth and unified. Luckily I don't get any fruity tones, I often hate them. To me it's muted, non-edible vanilla, musk and maybe sandalwood. It's nude indeed. Call me crazy but it smells exactly like the color of the bottle decor and its marketing campaign. Clean, warm, powdery. Very safe to use, I got compliments for wearing it. This is "the good smell" for people who don't know perfume, but not offensive for those who do. Sadly, the bottle is tacky, the spray over gets scratched soon. Rihanna is very stylish (the most stylish celebrity if you ask me, even though I don't know her music), but this is the least beautiful of her perfume bottle designs. I won't get any others though, they are all too sweet for my liking. Rihanna comes from Barbados, and I come from a cold European country :)

A_K_

this is a very nice smell actually, but very shy and subtle hence the name maybe
smells very pleasant, soft and tender but vanishes
has no lasting power or silage but does smell nice,
if you are looking for something nude, this is it
they got the marketing right here

CassandraAlexandra

Somehow can't stop smelling it on my wrist. This fragrance might seem like a very casual and generic everyday scent, but there's more to it than that.

On the initial spray, I get a lot of fruits and white flowers. It's not too sweet at all and the fruits don't smell sour, as it often happens with fruity fragrances.
Btw, I can't wear ANY fruity fragrances on my skin, especially peach, melon, etc. - they immediately get too sour, synthetic, and sharp.
I think it's orchid that's holding the fragrance from becoming generic. It truly is the base of the fragrance. Not too sweet, not syrupy, but soft and plush.
The scent becomes skin scent pretty quickly and longevity isn't the greatest, but I don't mind reapplying. If I smell my skin very close, I get pear or guava - not entirely sure, but it's pretty nice.
Definitely wouldn't mind having a 30ml of this fragrance in my collection for the days when I just can't decide what to wear.

Jazieboo7410

If you are a fan of jimmy choo illicit I would give this a try. This starts out similar to Reb’l Fleur yet much softer and sweeter. Within 30 seconds it quickly changes to an illicit clone.

Vickalicious

This was a recently blind-buy, and I really enjoy it. As far as celebrity scents go, I think Rihanna makes some great ones. Nude is sweeter and heavier than I was expecting. Based on the name and bottle design I was expecting a lighter skin-scent. I would say that this is a floral, fruity, musk scent. This scent is really quite sweet. It's similar to some of the popular fruit-chouli scents that are out on the market, but not quite as heavy. This has decent lasting power, and stays rather close to the skin. I find that this would be too heavy for the Summer days, but may work Summer nights. It's definitely a great scent for the Spring.

RachaelHanna

Nude is my absolute favorite Rihanna fragrance! Not quite as daring as Reb'l Fleur, so more wearable; still it is more complex than your average celebrity fragrance. Nude is one of the sexiest fragrances I own. Florals and vanilla seem to be equally dominant, but there is a fruitiness as well. I would rate this fragrance 10/10.

GagMyFrag

Really great everyday scent for the price. Ive had this for 2 years and I just repurchased it, I think everyone should own this just for a simple fruity perfume you can throw on however many times you want without feeling guilty since its low price.

Think of a tropical guava-mandarin smoothie with a bouquet of fresh white flowers next to it. Perfect for summer and all year round. The first spray is a tropical fresh floral bomb that fades into a more orange creamsicle citrusy floral vibe and then settles into a natural fresh skin scent.

Longevity is kind of poor on me as is most low end frags and even high ends one, I get max 3 hours but this scent is so yummy I don't mind spraying it often, loads of compliments and its cheap anyways.

Jacquis

Fresh spring floral which opens up with a bright fruity punch. This settles after 20 mins. to a nice calm floral. It is light, bright, smooth and easy to wear. I'd call this an everyday spring/summer perfume which is very pleasant. Settles to a slightly sweet musky dry down. Very pleasant.

Ninasknows

I really loved this at first spray but sadly it turned into a ‘sweaty but covering it up with perfume’ kind of smell

who.and.what.she.wants

This is so beautiful if you like white florals. It's sweet, clean, feminine. I love both vanilla and white florals so it's a match made in heaven. I also love tangy fresh fruit smells like the guava and mandarin this opens with before it goes into clean soapy white florals. If like me you like smelling clean, feminine, and pure this would be a good everyday scent.

Edit: I'm really smelling the jasmine in this today. It's reminding me of CK Beauty. This is a gorgeous expensive smelling bargain clean white floral.

sugar&spice

Creamy delicate floral blended smoothly with a soft hint of fruit, bestowing it as a palatable gourmand. This is in no way overpowering or a tropical teen sugarbomb: simply a divine, womanly,sensuous floral skin musk that I couldn't stop smelling on myself after trying in-store. Tested early afternoon; I could still smell it that evening. I've ordered a bottle.

GagMyFrag

It's okay. Reminds me almost exactly like Lady Gaga's Fame perfume. Its heavy on the white florals and vanilla with a sense of fruitiness coming through especially before the dry down. Average performance and pretty typical celebrtiy fragrance, but if you're into sweet fruity vanilla scents this could be for you. Safe blind buy i guess

Contessa01

It’s just an ok for me. I just find most of Rihanna’s and also Beyonce’s Perfumes to seem really detached from the celebrity themselves. It just doesn’t scream Rihanna to me. But that being said for a lower cost fragrance it’s a decent musky scent.

SailorV

Rihanna‘s Rebelle is one of my favorite perfumes, but Nude is only nice and not a must have to me. Out of the three fragrances in the high heels bottles, I like it the least. It‘s not as boring as some other celeb fragrances are, but not really exciting either.

The first blast is not really pleasant, clean in an artificial way that reminds me strongly of laundry detergent powder. The drydown is much better though.
I get mostly musk and vanilla (vanilla orchid) from this, with an undertone of soft nondescript white florals, a tiny hint of sandalwood and some nice fruity notes. I don‘t know if I would have identified them as pear and guava if I didn‘t know the notes, but this is definitely not a peachy or berry-like fruitiness. Overall, the name „Nude“ is quite fitting, this is soft, slightly sweet, warm and tender and a bit skin-like due to the musk.
It‘s a nice choice for a warm smelling cheap inoffensive fragrance for daily use, nothing more, nothing less.

AHeartLikeMine

Top notes smell gourmand. Middle notes smell like musky skin - very intimate, almost inappropriate.

tony5596

YES, this fragrance may be very fruity, sweet, and juvenile smelling. But it is something that I've never smelled before. I've tested so many celebrity fragrances and i have yet to come across that made me say "hmmm, this smells like Rihanna's Nude perfume". It's unique like most of Rihanna's fragrances. It's a shame that people would deprive themselves of a amazing fragrance just because it's under a celebrity's name and is very affordable.

I humbly say this fragrance is very generic on my skin and to my nose. A "nice" fruity-floral that is good for intimate wear. If I were to choose between this and something like "Intimate Fantasy" by Britney Spears I would choose the latter. You know what I mean by "nice," it is not edgy.

Not my favourite from Rhianna but it is certainly acceptable as it is. I must admit...sometimes you spritz a scent and feel, "nah its not for me," but if the notes suit your personality and you give it a chance, buy a little one and spritz it on those pulse points it may resonate with you.

So this is what I would say about "Nude." To those who love it ENJOY. I have nothing from Rhianna as yet, having only been given some "Reb'l Fleur" from my fragrance loving sister who didn't like it, so I have half-bottle of that. I haven't BOUGHT anything from her. I hope that will change in the future for I'm interested in "Reb'l Fleur, Reb'l Love Always" and "Rogue" (if I can get this in my country).

Recently purchased the full bottle of Nude and it's really a lovely scent. It's sensual and stays close to the skin and the sillage is soft. I love to put this on when I'm at home or before I go to bed because it makes me smell delicious. It's one of those perfumes where you can't tell if you are wearing perfume or not because it almost smells like clean skin. Plus- since it's so affordable I don't mind spraying it up! In comparison, Reb'l Fleur and Rebelle are more sexy and loud scents, whereas this one is soft and feminine.

This fragrance...I’m not sure about it. The initial hit is very fruity with lots of white florals. When it dries down, it’s quite similar to Katy Perry’s Killer Queen. I was surprised there was no patchouli in here, honestly. It’s quite musky with some vanilla, but there’s something so powdery in it. It’s actually more tolerable than Killer Queen, though. It’s not bad, but certainly not my favourite.

BlackAmberMoon

Mmm this is nice. Smells like warm, fresh skin that's been bathed in soft flowers, musk, sandalwood, and a touch of vanilla. I'm not crazy about the first few minutes - I like it best after it has settled on the skin for about an hour. I also spray it in my hair and it lasts a long time. Very soft and feminine. Not too sweet. Sexy, too, but not in your face.

I love my powerhouse orientals, but they are not always appropriate. I do a lot of ballroom dancing and need fragrances like this that stay close to the skin. My partners will get a nice, soft scent instead of a punch in the nose.

If you like Still by JLo and Sensuous by Estee Lauder, give Nude a try.

aulialovegreen

First blast is sweet pear and jasmine, remind me of "touch of woman" by La Rive. And then after a couple minutes it morph into something mix between creamy sandalwood, vanilla, and i guess orange blossom, the sweetness at thid stage is decrease by almost 50%.
Definitely try before buy, because you maybe don't like how it morph on your skin.

The silage is moderat to low, a safe fragrance for the office.

samantham-123

(Sigh)..I finally caved in and got this one. It took 3 tries to figure out whether i wanted it or not, first time i reviewed it, i think the tester at priceline was a bit off, as i literally smelled..nothing, just a faint fruity water.
Second time i thought it was nice, but just didnt wow me enough to buy.

Aaand today i gave it one final chance and i got the lady in the chemist to spray ..liberally on my hand lol.

Its a little soapy( i love soapy notes in fragrances), a little fruity; in a natural way not a sugary way, slightly powdery and finishes with a musky drydown. The sandalwood also gives it some warmth and keeps it from being too sweet.

I love Reb'l and Reb'l fleur so i knew this one couldnt be BAD, but its much quiter and tamer than the latter. But thats what Reb'l nude is all about; a " your skin but better" type of fragrance.
I have been looking for a nice warm skinscent type of fragrance of late and for 24 dollars for 100ml, im pretty happy with this one. I think it might go nice layered with Reb'l fleur as well.
To me, Reb'l fleur is the warm summer day scent, Rebelle is the cold dark winter scent, and Reb'l nude is the light spring day scent.
They are all different but i love them all.

Solinger

Interesting scent. Good for work and also suitable for a party. I'd give it a 7 out of 10 :)

White gold-mumma

First spritz for some reason gives me lavender. It then dries down into a soft, very soft, close to skin, light fruity scent. I don't smell white floral at all :(

SmellieKat

Nude is a beautiful celebrity perfume. It's no powerhouse, but I'm not always in the mood for strong sillage. People still comment on the scent, however, especially when up close. Just bought my second bottle, which I hardly ever do given the size of my collection. Also got the body spray to layer and refresh.

Nude starts out fruity, but quickly becomes a creamy, slightly soapy and musky perfume. Staying power is quite good...4-5 hours on my skin. Top notes just make me happy and this is one my husband always comments on. Will keep Nude in my collection as long as it's available.

Nude reminds me a bit of Kenneth Cole White, but Nude is brighter with the fruity opening. In fact, I used the KCW body spray to layer until finding the Nude body spray, which worked great.

Selena

Funny how seasons bring out the best in perfumes..
I've had this for over a year. Never wore it much.
I tried a couple times in summer, done nothing for me, gave it another go in spring & got the same results. So I put it away thinking "nope not for me"..
It's autumn now, but feels like winter, it's 14 degrees today with rain.
I'm home, sprayed this on & BAM! Got a whiff of gorgeousness all around.
I mainly smell musk,guava, pear & vanilla orchid. Gives off a tiny bit of sweetness but more floral.
Doesn't smell at all synthetic/generic. I honestly think it's a good perfume for $30 dollars.
I think I'll buy myself another bottle once I finish this one.
Definitely a cold weather perfume for me.

bbacon

I picked this up for about $10 because reviewers mentioned the guava note several times. I don’t get any guava from this which makes me sad! I get more of a vanilla/musk/woods perfume with some fruity notes but after dry down it’s a lot more vanilla, which is fine because I like creamy/musky perfumes (Clean Reserve Skin is a favorite). I’m just bummed that I get so few fruity notes. I can only wonder if it has turned in some way at the store I purchased it at (it was brand new in a sealed box.)

It’s worth mentioning two things: my husband commented on liking this on me and he’s not normally one to notice or even like perfumes (very prone to migraines). It does have a slightly sexy smell (but isn’t approaching Victoria’s Secret which is often overpowering imho.) Also, several reviewers mentioned this is a safe blind buy and I agree. No one would complain being in an elevator with you wearing this; it isn’t weird or polarizing really. But it also isn’t very exciting to me; since my husband liked it I’ll wear it on date nights.

Mdox407

This fragrance (along with Rogue Love) are definitely the only safe blind-buy fragrances of her collection. Rihanna makes very BOLD, UNIQUE fragrances and I respect her for that...however...fragrances such as this are not usually general crowd pleasers. For example...Rihanna's first two fragrances...are DEFINITELY not safe blind buys. They are daring...bold...strange...and most definitely not for everyone.

However...this one is a clean, musky, clean-skin type of scent with subtle fruit notes. And Rogue love also...a very warm/sweet caramel-esque perfume very reminiscent of Viva La Juicy.

I quite like this one. I voted above with a like and it isn't a scent that I reach for often...but nevertheless, it is very pleasant and safe without being boring. I highly recommend this one for people who like to wear perfumes on the daily, but work in a field that does not permit strong-strength, nor strong-personality fragrances such as Alien, Versace's Crystal Noir, etc. Perhaps people of professions such as a nurse, teacher, dentist, doctor, or anyone who works in an office in close proximity to dozens of others. This would be perfect for those types of people/situations.

Scent Itself - 7.5/10

Longevity - A moderate 4 hours.

Projection - Also a perfect moderate. About 1.5 feet. Nothing that will make anyone sneeze or offend their personal space.

Overall Score - 7/10. Again, nothing amazing but it manages to be a pretty, clean, friendly, non offensive fragrance without being placed in the "boring" category. Thumbs up Rihanna.

Bruneiperfumelover

Love this fragrance! Sweet and so delicious. Too bad it doesn't last long on my skin. Otherwise it could be my signature scent for this year.

cocolover56

I like this, but don't love it. However, when I dab a bit on top of Angel Muse, it's just stunning! Enhances the fruitiness of Muse and takes it to a sweet, tasty new level.

On its own, the pear sings. Like all Rihanna scents and many celebrity scents being released today, it's of surprisingly good quality. Well blended, lasts quite a while and is effortless and beautiful. Signature scent? By no means, but it is really nice.

Virgoesque

Deal of the week! I bought Rihanna Nude at Ross for $15. Score! I've never smelled a Rihanna perfume and I must say I really like this one a lot. I'm surprised at some of the reviewers who had poor longevity with this one, however, because it really lasted on my skin. I can still smell this on my arm after 8 hours and a shower! "Nude" opens with guava, a note I was totally unfamiliar with and LOVE now that I've experienced it. YUM! The dry down is a powdery vanilla orchid, which reminds me of a soft Flowerbomb. I can't wear Flowerbomb at all, but I imagine I'll wear Nude a lot, because it's lovely and not overwhelming. I am excited to try Rihanna's other perfumes now!

B!tchBrisket

It's sweet and a tiny bit musky. It's nothing outstanding but it's nice for a gently scented hour

Perfume74

Very sophisticated and long lasting

Lashiec

I adore this one so much, the smell/taste of guava does a lot for me.

But there are people out there who aaaaaaaaabsolutely hate it. I've sprayed it in the air and they've come running demanding to know what I did. Sadly they also happen to live in the same house as me, OOF...

A shame, honestly. Rihannas fragrances are stunning, and this one is no exception. In the end, Reb'l Fleur and Rogue Love are the guaranteed crowd pleasing ones. I just wish this one was too...

(Seriously though, all of her perfumes are amazing and different. If you only trust one celeb for this stuff, make it Rihanna.)

ladyjm89

This smelled heavenly on the tester card, and even better on my friend’s wrist. When she got me the 3.4 bottle for a surprise gift I was over the moon. I took it to the restroom at work and immediately spritzed myself in what I thought was the best perfume I’d ever smelled. Unfortunately for me, the notes did not work well on my skin. What sat soft and sexy on my friend turned into loud and screechy on me. I got a headache almost instantaneously, but refused to acknowledge that to her. I tried giving this one a few chances, but every time I did it was bad. I ended up giving it away to my sister in-law who is a mad fan of Rihanna. It smelled good on her too. Guess it just wasn’t meant for me.

ShiraJemJem

One of the best 'Nude' fragrance in my opinion. I can smell fresh juicy in the opening then sensual vanilla orchid and close with mild woody musk scent which makes this fragrance so gorgeous.

It has strong sillage for first couple hours then sits close to the skin. But it's so sexy enough to make everyone turns around for you and come close to smell it on your skin like there is some aura all around you.

Last week I wore this one for a date and at the end of the day that guy told me that I smell so sexy and it's so hard for him to keep himself calm all day. Poor boy XD

This officially becomes one of my Top5 fav fragrance. <333

appleorchard

I like it! It smells like blueberry muffins but it's definitely guava. And the base is a very well rounded, slightly powdery smell. Something you can throw on and be inoffensive and smell like you're not trying too hard.

missk

Guava is one of my favourite fruit accords. As an individual that very rarely wears fruity florals, I find that guava as a note provides that uniqueness that I often crave. I was really looking forward to testing Rihanna's Nude to see how this note was represented.

I do like Nude by Rihanna, but not enough to purchase a bottle. It's a casual, easy-going fragrance with soft fruit accords, soapy florals and a smooth sandalwood drydown. Nude by Rihanna attempts to emulate other popular 'skin scents', but wears much stronger on the skin with relatively bold projection.

Rogue for Women and Nude by Rihanna are definitely my favourites from those that I've tried from her range. Their lack of sugary sweetness is what makes them in my personal opinion the standouts.

The younger consumers are the least likely to enjoy this fragrance as they might find RiRi and Reb'l Fleur much more palatable. As someone in my late twenties, I much prefer the softer, fresher scents like Nude by Rihanna. This fragrance is so pleasant and inoffensive that it could easily be worn as an office scent.

I would recommend Nude by Rihanna for daytime wear during the mid-seasons like Spring and Autumn. The longevity is rather decent lasting a good five to six hours on the skin, with moderate projection.

Sweetiehuni

Really nice soft strong fragrance if that makes sense. It's soft but it can be smelt from a distance. I have had a couple of compliments on this. 1 from my old boss at the end of the work day when I'd sprayed at 7am and another from my bf who said 'mmmm smells nice' :)

IkuraGirl

You know when you walk into a certain ubiquitous drugstore that regularly has celebrity fragrances on sale for twenty bucks and you feel your heartbeat pick up and with your sweaty palms you swoop four of them into your little plastic cart, all giddy like some kind of marauding perfume pirate?

I'll speak for myself: that was me, when I bought Rihanna Nude: full on bat shit crazy perfume pirate, in search of treasure, high and low. I'm not a perfume snob, but, admittedly, these days my taste hasn't been terribly discriminating either. It's a phase (I think).

So, about the juice: It's an intense raspberry cream syringe of sweet deliciousness straight to the temple; the berry notes are immediately strong and noticeable, within ten minutes, it becomes a soft, yummy, completely lovely and completely forgettable fragrance. To give you an idea, I use it as body spray when I come out of the shower: I don't identify this as perfume at all, and liken it more to a body spray or hair mist that Bath and Body Works churns out.

It sits close to the skin, and I do catch a whiff of it on my jacket, days later. That day in the drugstore, I got what I paid for with this juice: a bit of a sugar high that was delicious and then was gone.

xsxcstarx

Rihanna cant seem to do any wrong with her fragrances! Nude compared to Rebelle & Reb'l Fleur seems to be chilled & less 'out there' - when applying this it smells very fresh & powdery, like you've just stepped out of the shower on an exotic sunny beach. This settles down to a really nice warm vanilla smell.

Love wearing this in the summer as it makes me feel really fresh & clean, this does last for about 6- 8 hours on me so I would say the longevity is very good. Would defo re purchase this.

LibraNationTen11

Have this scent in the body spay and I love it! To me it smells like a soft fruity tropical smell. Perfect for daytime were.

Soofiya

I've already reviewed nude but now that I have my own bottle of it,I can add some other points
Rihanna nude was a love for me.not a love at first sniff but after using my decant couple of times,I caught myself enjoying it very much and finally I came to the point that I really love this blend of creamy white florals and powdery vanilla while a hint of sweet fruits(pear and guava)whispers in background.I still love it but I'm also kind of disappointed.I didn't remember it to be this soft and I used to apply it in smaller amounts!
Now I can easily smell it's adorable scent on myself in first 10-15 minutes of application.this is nude's sweetest and fruitiest stage which I enjoy as much as it's other phase.after this amazing quarter of hour in well-rounded floral fruity heaven it calms down to a much lighter scent of creamy white florals and some vanilla orchid. it has milder sweetness and is more grown up and very sensual now,but it stays very softly too much close to skin and this is what dissapoints me.no one can smell it on me and I just can smell it when I glue my nose to my skin.it lingers as a soft floral vanilla for at least five hours while it gradually becomes more powdery and more about vanilla and even lighter
I know it's called nude and it has to be sort of a skin scent but I was hoping to enjoy it's gorgeous scent without struggling for longer time and I also wanted others to be able to smell it.an hour after application when I asked my man about his idea about my perfume he asked what perfume?! even though he was hugging me and I had doused myself in it and had sprayed it on my hair and clothes too! Well,he finally noticed it after carefully and deeply sniffing but this memory was a real let down for me :(
Do I regret buying it? hell no!I'm specially happy that I have a 100mil so I can spray and respray it freely.and probably I can still say that it's among my most favorite perfumes.it's one of the veryyy rare perfumes I can wear day after day without feeling the usual need to change my perfume (I usually need to change my perfume at least twice a day!)but the sad truth is:for being able to really enjoy this beautiful,oh so beautiful scent I 'd better reapply it at least every hour or so!
Give it a try if sillage and projection of a perfume isn't really important for you and you'd like a soft,ultra feminine,smooth and ageless scent which is inoffensive enough (and even more than enough)for work place and sexy enough for an intimate date(in case your partner can smell it on you)
ریحانا نود هیچ شباهتی به ریحانا ربل و ربل فلور نداره
ریحانا نود یه عطر معتدل و لطیف و دوست داشتنیه که بصورت چهارفصل قابل استفاده ست.شروع شیرین و میوه ای داره(گلابی و گواوا)،بتدریج رایحه لطیف و خامه ای گلهای سفید غالب تر میشه و شیرینی عطر ملایمتر میشه
درای داون نود، رایحه ای پودری و ظریف و دلنشین از وانیل،مشک تمیز و بی آزار ،چوب صندل و گلهای سفید هست
باتوجه به ملایمت رایحه،برای محل کار و محیط هایی ک نباید عطرتون تند و سنگین باشه،همچنین داخل خونه و قرارهای دونفره مناسبه چون فقط کسی که خیلی نزدیک تون باشه میتونه حسش کنه
تصور کنید تازه از حموم دراومدید،بدن تون رو لوسیون زدید و یه پیراهن حریر بژ پوشیدید که سبک و نازک و راحته.ریحانا نود مناسب ترین عطر برای تو این لحظه ست،تمیز،فمینین،لطیف و آرامش بخش

calvinwhite16

Some woman sprayed this in my area at work & I just had find out what it was. This instantly turned me on GODAMN!!!

babbytwerk

VERY SWEET. This is straight up floral candy, very teenage girl-like but its a wonderful warm fragrance. It smells like what it is, which is a female popstar celebrity fragrance but it doesn't smell cheap and lasts about over half a day.
would recommend probably to younger girls because its very feminine.

lglane09

I wore Reb'l Fleur for a long time when going out at night. Nude smells almost exactly the same to me, but with stronger vanilla notes and an overall tamer vibe, making it good for day time use. It's quite lovely, but Rogue is still my absolute favourite.

Mbrock

I really like this but for something called Nude its actually a rather strong scent. I get sandalwood, vanilla orchid and musk. There is nothing sweet to me about it, the vanilla just gives it a kind of creaminess. This lasts all day on me.

DorothyCassidy

This is more a day scent and specialy for summer months. I think Rihana managed to create a celebrity perfume for an acceptable price. It s tropical and too powdery I think. But i like it

As3d

A lighter version of flowerbomb!

Hewlett

Blind buy based on reviews:

I'd hoped that Nude could have been a nice and inoffensive skin scent for those days where I don't feel like wearing a highly noticeable scent.

Unfortunatly, I find this to be just another sweet, fruity celebrity scent - but atleast I got inoffensive, in the "no personality what so ever"-kinda way.

Furthermore the longevity and sillage is absolutely non-excisting. I spray it, I smell it for 10 minuts and then...... nope, nothing! I've tried to spray it on my skin, hair and clothes - same result.

I even tried to mix it with the body gel and lotion (bought a giftbox) but that didn't help much.

Looking at the bright side: it's rather cheap but I'm still stuck with a 100ml. bottle.

A complete waste of money... I'm very disapointed.

Edit: Okay, to be fair the scent actually did linger for 4-5 hours on my clothes.

VioletDream2

This scent smells good but it is too synthetic chemical sweet for me. I don't know if it's the guava mixed with vanilla orchid and pear notes that is creating this nauseous sick, headache inducing reaction every time I smell it on my skin, but it's too synthetic sickeningly sweet for me to withstand. Her other fragrances, rebelle, reb'l fleur, rogue, rogue man, smell divine, I have those and they are among my favorite scents in the perfume world! Especially rebelle, yummy good and reb'l fleur, I just can't get enough of dosing myself with those. Maybe I have to give this one some time to get used to or spray lightly. It smells good when the wind blows it and you catch whiffs of it blowing in the wind, but if smelled up close nose to skin it makes me have a headache and almost nauseous.

sarage

Nude is a very pleasant, well blended floral fruity fragrance, in which the fruity notes are subtle and softened by white flowers and musk.
This smells like a soft, light brown toffee candy with pear filling!
Pear is my favourite fruit in fragrances, and together with white flowers and musk it smells heavenly!
Nude is sexy, and also very wearable, every day.
I love Nude. It has good longevity and when I wear it, people in the same room can smell it, even though I don't overspray.

Soofiya

Received a tiny sample of rihanna nude when I bought rebelle.unlike my expectations I liked it very much
It's completely different with two other similar shaped bottles.nude is soft,feminine and very pleasant.in the opening I could mostly detect sweet fruit notes,guava and pear which strangely I liked!then very soft,satin like musky florals,vanilla and creamy sandalwood show up and make it warm and smooth at the same time clean
I find a sexy vibe in most rihanna perfumes including nude but this one is sexy in a soft,soothing,intimate way
I think it's better in mild weather.longevity is moderate(5hours)and sillage is soft to moderate.
Nude,rebelle and rouge are my favorite rihanna fragrances

❤❤❤❤
Edit:
I used up my sample and now I can't wait to add nude to my collection.it's among my most favorite celebrity perfumes now even one of my favorites in general
First time I tried it it appeared as a fruity scent to me but now I see it as a powdery floral-vanilla scent.there's a light hint of fruits in background just to keep it sweet and youthful(pear isn't crisp here.it's ripe and sweet).main players are flowers but they don't appear as heavy,in your face and classic white florals.I know a friend who usually hates floral scents,specially white florals but loves Rihanna nude.gardenia,jasmine and orange flower are soft and creamy here(not buttery) and vanilla(orchid vanilla) accompanys them to create a veil of nude colored powdery-creamy aura.musk is very light,warm and sensual
Nude is not your typical celebrity perfume.it's not loud or flashy.not overly fruity or overly sweet.it has a great balance and nothing is exaggerated in it.it has a calm,gentle and grown up personality.soft and inviting.it's one of the best perfumes a lady can wear at home while being around her man as it's smooth,inviting and charming.it's not a head turner like rouge,rebelle and reb'l fleur,it enchants who is in your personal area slowly and deeply.rihanna nude reminds me xerjoff dama Bianca and tiziana trenzi Draco,they don't smell similar but give me the impression of similar personalities
I'm so mad at myself for choosing reb'l Fleur which I dislike and find unwearable now over this little gem
If I want to describe nude in some words I'd say soft,smooth,sensual,lightly sweet,creamy and high quality.thanks for this great job Rihanna

dilqna

Awful smell , awful bottle ! I absolutely agree with the other comments that this perfume smells just like Madonna naked version !i don't know what you guys likes in this fragrance it's so awful smell , when I spray it on myself smell like lemonade , or soda ! Yukk it's not like the other celebrity fragrance but also I absolutely not recommend .from all Rihanna perfumes I like rogue and rogue love. Both of them smell nice sexy and classy !

kitsunemagic

At Walgreens this morning I bought a set of 3 Rihanna perfumes that are .5oz sizes for 20.00 USD and by far this one is my favorite. Nude sweet and fresh and has amazing projection for the price. At first spray it smelled kinda nostalgic for some reason, it reminds me of a Juice Bar body mist I used to have as a small child and I believe it's the gummy bears one, only Nude smells more like a better quality fruity gummy bear, vanilla and floral kinda perfume. Glad I grabbed the 3 bottle set and discovered this one

MissIness

My favorite for autumn is Nude, got two full size bottles and now I have body mist and I feel like I need it back in my life again as soon as the autumn chill weather comes up.
First of all it has cozy soft fluffy sandalwood. Second important moment - it has clean white flower musk that makes impression that you wear some expensive high end perfume.
But the most pleasant moments are when it smells kind of fruity and then turns to powder and woods and then again you feel ..strawberries? vanilla? It keeps you guessing all the time.
There's never too much of sweetness, that's what gourmand lovers say. But it's not bad thing to have that sweetness harmonious and composed. Because of that feature Rihanna's Nude smells more expensive than Black Opium, Flowerbomb or whatever sweet but big name.

Oh, she smells good!

The white florals and musk in this ties everything together so nicely. It's a soft/fresh scent that lasts up to 4 hours, i wish it was longer but still a scent that clears your palette from smelling the other two stronger scents from the rebel collection.

blue angelic

I love the bottles!!! (Rebelle , Reb'l Fleur and Nude) I think they're really wild! And, really easy to hold; and spray.. In fact, they're easier for me than lots of others. I think the shape is truly gorgeous - very unique and artistic. I love holding them!!!

And the perfume is great too. Terrific - fruity and florally. Just lovely.

Emilleigh

This definitely opens on a grape soda sweetness and settles into Viva La Juicy Gold Couture with guava on top. I like it! It's summery without being too fruity.

ShroomRavioli

It is nice but maybe a bit too musky on me. Overall a very sweet, floral smell but nothing special.

annwnoe

To me, Nude is a spicy orange blossom fragrance, similar to Armani Code for women. It is well worth its modest purchase price, and it is a safe blind buy.
My bottle has gone off, but only after 3 years, and I will buy another to replace it.

jockinjb

I rarely find a celebrity scent that is even slightly tolerable, but this one is my budget unicorn! Sexy, inoffensive and energetic. I always get compliments when I wear this $20 gem.

Zosiasbear

This is my first review on here. I got a small version of Nude when I made another purchase of Rihanna's fragrances. This is one of those scents that I didn't think I would enjoy at first, but the more I wore it, the better I liked it.

It reminds me of what my aunts smelled like when I was a child. She was that aunt that let's you do naughty things that your own parents would never approve of. Bright colored flowing clothes, scarves, bangles, and loud makeup--that was my aunt, and her perfume was always BOLD.

I turn to this fragrance now that's gone and it lets me for a moment remember that audacity and maybe grab a little of it for myself. It's indescribable as far as notes are concerned for me. It feels like there is vanilla in it but obviously there is not. It's sensual, it's fun, it's Prince songs in the car on a summer night with all the windows down.

AngelEuphoria

Nude is pretty much the summer version of Flowerbomb by V&R. I love both but I stop wearing Flowerbomb at the end of spring because I don't think heavier notes wear well in hot/humid weather. I switch to Nude for the summer. Rihanna's Reb L Fleur is pretty much a summer version of Lancome's La Vie Est Belle. It's also much lighter and agreeable than L.V.Est Belle.

equilateral

I mostly get warm vanilla and some pear from this. I love it though, it definitely smells like what someone could smell like naturally. It doesn't feel out of place nor is it offensive or too noticeable. It's not boring though. Longevity and sillage is slightly above average.

5/5

*_Lilly_*

I have been wearing this in the heat of this crazy summer and this, this is where this scent plays the best! I love it :)

Erinbath22

I got a little 1 oz. of this with so much confidence that I would love it that I threw away the bag/receipt. The notes/reviews sounded amazing, but I got a really bad headache from one spray and kept feeling like it was just too much of everything. Headache sensitive folks should sample first. I tried to get over it, but finally gave up.
I think that despite the name "nude" and the image of softness this portrays, it is actually heavy, strong, and I guess I just can't pull it off. Weirdly enough, I loooove Rogue, so it's not Rhianna perfumes in general. My mother in law was visiting and liked it a lot, so I gave it to a loving home!

Pink Moon

Recently, I tested, for the first time, Rihanna's Rogue, Reb'l Fleur and Nude, and liked them all to start with, but by the end of the day I didn't like Rogue. I still liked very much the other two, so bought them both. Yesterday I wore the first one, Nude, and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! From the first spray onwards! It is divine!! Every note in the pyramid described here, came through exactly as listed. The first gorgeous wafts of guava! mandarin! and pear! Delicious! Then, quietly, gently, after about half an hour the beautiful flowers joined the affair, and they all together made the most glorious smell!! Oh my goodness! Lovely! And it stayed that way for about another hour, when the lovely soft creamy melding sweetness of the base notes oozed in to envelope everyone else, and give me such a happy comforting feeling! Joyous! Beautiful!!! A really good quality perfume to my mind. And it lasted well into this morning, and the sillage is at least an arm's length. I didn't have to sniff my skin till well into the evening - it stayed as a beautiful soft cloud around me till then. A gloriously lovely experience! Oh, and I really like the bottle! It's easy for me to hold, and I think it's very arty!

blake.lee

Really soapy, sweet floral. Smells like Flowerbomb mixed with generic powdered laundry soap.

Addict2Perfume

Nude by Rihanna is a powdery-sweet fruity-floral and one of the extremely rare occasions I actually like pear in a fragrance. I like the pear in this because I know that is what is coming through as powdery-sweet on me, but I do not detect the actual smell of the pear (which makes me happy) because guava is singing its tropical sweet-smelling heart out! Love the guava! In the dry down I can smell the vanilla orchid and a little mandarin/orange blossom. I only with the scent lasted longer!

tomatoq

Sex in a bottle y'all. This is what I imagine Rihanna smelling like.

Not like the other celebrity scents, it's really something else. It could absolutely be a designer frangrance. Try it!

Georgia Hare

Love this perfume, such a gorgeous scent. I am nearly through my second bottle and will definitely be repurchasing a third bottle.

After having the pleasure of experiencing Rebelle, I wanted to try this one as it was mentioned that they are similar. I remember TJ Maxx having one a few weeks ago so I checked. Nope, gone. Marshalls? Yes. OK. Bough it...The first initial spray I am not too crazy about but it doesn't last long. It's probably best described by me as a fruity/spicy/ginger scent. The guava I am guessing. Then it quickly goes to musk and sandalwood (on me). I do not get any vanilla, really. I will have to play with this one. It was not love at first sniff like Rebelle (I love Rebelle!!!) but since Marshalls will not let you return it if opened, I will have to keep it and it's not bad, but not a love either :) It is close to skin and musky, it's a safe scent and I will add more later after I have worn this full day etc. I do not really see the similarities to Rebelle as some have mentioned :/
EDIT TI ADD: Wore this today and man do I get almost all sandalwood and musk -_- Must be my chemistry...

Add-------->This is a great summer scent (heat is good for this one) :D

I just scored a bottle of this for 6.99 at Marshalls. I absolutely love this scent, it is pretty much a lighter version of rebelle. I consider this a comfort scent but not as heavy or overpowering as most of my comfort gourmands are. If you want a gourmand scent for summer that is not too tutti frutti this is it.

I truly love this scent, I recently bought it and I keep catching myself grabbing for it!
The sweet guava, vanilla and powdery note really tugged on my heart strings!
I put it on last night and slept for a good 8 hours and got some chores done and I could smell it lightly when I got close to my arm.
I can not believe how many times I walked passed it at Marshalls and never thought of purchasing it!
I am excited to wear it next time I see my fiancé and see what he thinks!

UPDATE:
He did really like it and wouldn't stop kissing my arm!!
Which is one of the places I applied it.
Totally recommend it!

Disregard the odd bottle and the fact that this is a celebrity fragrance. Then, do away with the notion that this is low quality because it is sold at Wal*mart. Nude is a beautiful, easy to wear scent that radiates fresh femininity. It's performance is good, with arm's length projection that lasts roughly 5 hours on skin. It's light, fruity, and tropical without resorting to cheap coconut/suntan lotion aromas to achieve it. (I find that very refreshing.) It reminds me of sunny days at the beach, the warm breeze rushing through the fruit trees and perfuming the air with sweet, salty goodness. It's fresh, fun, and free-spirited.

Fruity, tropical fragrances are usually marketed to teens and young adults, but Nude doesn't seem to have distinct age boundaries. It smells lovely and feels appropriate on people of all ages. This fragrance takes the light, fun-in-the-sun quality of being young and wraps it in a soft blanket of womanhood. It is truly ageless.

Nude is a hidden gem in the celebrity fragrance world. It isn't just a pretty face with a big name. There is quality and style beneath the exterior, which makes this a winner in my book. Well done, RiRi.

Scent: 9/10
Projection: 7/10
Longevity: 6/10

Again, Rihanna has managed to create a low-in-price "celebrity perfume" that is really comparable to more expensive brands (was it not for the somewhat cheap looking bottle, I'd be fooled!)
I really like Nude. It reminds me a lot of Rihanna's Rebelle, but more floral and lighter - more of a summer time / daytime perfume. While it sits comfortably in the "floral-fruity" box, it is not overly sweet. I like the guava, which I smell nice and strongly, but it's not a "tropical" smelling perfume to me.
A good, solid "like" from me!

I think this scent is really pretty and light. I'm wearing it on a snowy day to brighten the day but can see it being amazing in the summer. I can really smell the guava in this. Yummy. It's tropical but powdery and didn't know how I'd like this combination, but I do like it. It actually is my least favorite of Rihanna's perfumes. This is probably because Rebelle and Reb'l Fleur are "loves," but this still falls under a "like." Who knows though? It could become a love, I just put this scent on about half of an hour ago. It does invoke purity, softness, nudity. I think the scent is accurately named. Has just enough powderiness to round it out and make it soft, although guava and pear scents are generally pretty soft.

Edit: 2 hours later, something in it seems to strengthen. It isn't necessarily sweet or powdery, actually a tad more sharp. I think it might be the gardenia and orange blossom. It could even be the orchid because I know that it is a difficult smell to replicate, because what I'm smelling doesn't necessarily smell like orchids to me. Not like it's a bad thing. I like how soft it is in the beginning and how that still persists, but actually deepens and evolves with time. Amazing that I got this perfume for 6 bucks for 1 oz on ebay. Smells much more expensive.

Edit again: 5 hours later, the smell is still very much persistent! I feel like I smell peaches, but it might be the pear and orangey notes. The muskiness is coming through as time goes on. So shocked that it has such decent longevity.
