Rare Beginnings by Rare Beauty: a new floral fruity fragrance for 2026
Rare Beauty has announced Rare Beginnings, a scent designed for both men and women, set to debut in 2026. It opens with juicy pear and nutty pistachio, before unfolding into a white floral bouquet.
The heart combines jasmin, gardenia, and lotus flower, giving the composition an aquaic, fresh feel. Meanwhile, sugar, vanilla pod, and ceder provide a cosy but not overly sweet finish.
Pear and pistachio form an intriguing opening, where fruit meets cream in a way that feels both bright and comforting.
In the middle, the florals take over: jasmine adds a hint of classic elegance, gardenia brings a heady richness, and lotus flower keeps everything breezy.
The base is all about texture, with sugar and vanilla offering a soft, edible quality balanced by the woody dryness of cedar.
With an average rating of 3.6 out of 5 from 178 ratings, this fragrance appears to have gained a modest following amongst fans of gourmand florals.
It's a scent that works well from spring to autumn, making it a flexible addition to any collection.
Fragrance lovers who gravitate towards sweet, floral compositions and appreciate a touch of freshness, regardless of gender.
Rare Beginnings is a lovely initial offering from Rare Beauty, blending the comfort of vanilla with the cleanliness of aquatic florals. A gentle, pleasant choice for daily wear.

I’ll stick with the original, rather chemical, the layerable balms make it worse and it doesn’t last as long as I’d imagined. A little disappointed after trying it, I’d imagined a pear far more “juicy” and fresh.
Strong chemical smell, relatively “fresh” — I stress “relatively” — that doesn’t smell of anything in particular. Potpourri of meaningless synthetic notes…
