Korean Perfumery: How K-Beauty Came to Fragrances
At first, the world fell in love with Korean creams and sheet masks. Then it was the turn of scent, ...
Deraah Private Gourmand is a unisex fragrance in eau de parfum concentration, released in 2022.
The composition was created for those who appreciate noticeable, rich and multilayered fragrances with a fruity opening, a woody heart and a slightly sweet dry-down.
The fragrance belongs to the French brand Deraah Private, which specializes in unisex eau de parfum releases.
Its character combines modern versatility with a striking presentation: Gourmand does not try to go unnoticed and immediately makes its presence known with a dense, very powerful trail.
Deraah Private Gourmand opens brightly and energetically.
Juicy fruity and citrusy nuances of apple, orange, grapefruit and bergamot create a sparkling first impression, while incense adds resinous depth and a subtle coolness to the composition.
As the fragrance develops, the citrus freshness becomes calmer, giving way to dry cedar and balsamic elemi.
Thanks to this transition, the fragrance does not become a straightforwardly sweet accord: it retains a balance between airy freshness, woody restraint and a soft, warm texture.
Caramel is particularly noticeable in the base, making the scent rounder and more alluring.
Patchouli and vetiver support the sweet accord with earthy and woody nuances, so the finish feels rich, composed and sufficiently mature.
As a unisex fragrance, Deraah Private Gourmand may smell different on men's and women's skin.
On some skin, juicy fruits and caramel will be more prominent; on other skin, woody, resinous or earthy nuances may stand out. The overall character, however, remains expressive and noticeable.
The trail is described as very powerful, making the composition suitable for situations when you want to attract attention and leave behind a recognizable olfactory impression.
Moderation is advisable for the office or a small enclosed space, while for an evening out, cool weather, a walk or a special occasion, Gourmand's intensity becomes part of its appeal.
No precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing have been provided for this fragrance.
A practical approach is to start with a small amount on the skin, assess the intensity of the trail after a few minutes and add more if necessary, without overwhelming the surrounding space.
Deraah Private Gourmand was created by Philippe Paparella Paris and Pierre Constantin Gueros.
Their work is built around contrast: a fresh fruity-citrusy impulse gradually merges with cedar and elemi, then transitions into a warm caramel-and-woody base.
There is no information about a separate collection or other concentrations of this fragrance.
Gourmand can therefore be viewed as an independent Deraah Private release with a clear gourmand profile, a strong presence and versatile gender positioning.
The similar fragrances listed are Dior Dior Homme Sport, The Spirit of Dubai Turath and The Spirit of Dubai Meydan.
They may serve as a starting point for further comparison if you are interested in noticeable compositions with fruity, woody, resinous or rich oriental nuances.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The composition opens with apple, bergamot, incense, grapefruit, and orange.
This opening is juicy, citrusy, and dynamic, while resinous incense adds a deeper dimension to its freshness.
The heart features cedar and elemi, creating a dry woody-balsamic accord. They soften the initial brightness of the fruit and prepare the composition for a warm finish.
The base is built around caramel, patchouli, and vetiver. The sweetness of the caramel is supported by earthy woody nuances, allowing the fragrance to retain depth, character, and a very powerful sillage.
