Nebula I

Nebula 1 is one of those fragrance finds that makes you double-check the price tag to ensure you haven’t slipped into an alternate universe. It’s a near-doppelgänger for Dior’s Jasmin des Anges, but at a fraction of the cost. Proof that sometimes the stars really do align in your favour. The scent itself is luminous: jasmine that feels less like a flower and more like a celestial phenomenon. It opens with a golden, honeyed brightness, warm yet airy, as though sunlight were refracted through a prism. There’s a sweetness, but never cloying. More nectar than syrup, balanced with a quiet sophistication that keeps it in orbit with Dior’s elegant creation. The bottle is a galaxy trapped in glass: iridescent, prismatic, and hypnotic, a little objet d’art that looks as good on your dresser as it smells on your skin. Is it a perfect clone? Nearly. Dior might have the subtle edge in refinement and depth, but Nebula 1 is close enough that unless your nose is trained at NASA levels, you’ll be floating happily among the stars without regret. A divine jasmine comet (and it's not an indolic jasmine - it's soft and pretty and completely tamed by the fruity aspects), caught and bottled, at an earthly price.

Everyone is sleeping on this. Such a great perfume!

Starts with very strong, indolic white florals. To me the jasmine really shines and I feel like I can smell tuberose as well? The beginning is a bit too much for me. At the one hour mark, the scent mashes more with the skin and a light sweetness comes through and the scent becomes magical to me. The muskiness is more of a fresh & sweet musk instead of an animalic musk. I don't really get any fruits. As ginepro says, it has a bit of a vintage make up vibe to it, but don't let that scare you off if you're not into those scents. To me it smells very unique, feminine and luxe.

Very feminine, nice generic floral scent, but it doesn't even remind me of Jasmin des Anges, not even far! I have the OG and there's no resemblance.

It smells ok, but I don"t get any white florals or fruits. It is very powdery, and smells like some sort of almond powder.

I had never tried anything from Maison Alhambra and the bottle together with the notes of peach and apricot was what caught my interest. Unfortunately, I can't seem to detect much peach and apricot in Nebula I. However, it is a quite beautiful scent anyway and to my nose it smells unexpectedly similar to L'Heure Bleue! Nebula I has that kind of old fashioned, powdery vintage make up-vibe to it and is quite thick with jasmine and osmanthus. If the scent were a season or a month, it would definitely be a sunny springtime (Mars and early April) afternoon with chilly winds, when the sun is about to soon go down and turn into evening. The drydown is soft and sweet, like a pillow of vanilla and musk. I got this bottle at a very good price (around 200 kr/20€) which is a bargain and the bottle looks very very pretty on my bookshelf.

As notas aqui descritas não condizem com o que de fato temos nesta fragrância. Além das aqui citadas certamente temos íris bem terrosa, violeta e baunilha de fundo. É um cheiro bem agradável, na saída você já sente um soco na cara de íris que aqui predomina e é protagonista, a evolução dele é linda fica um cheiro de maquiagem bem docinha. Diferente de tudo que já havia provado, seu frasco é uma jóia para se ter na coleção. Quem gosta de atalcados adocicados certamente gostará de Nébula I.

Very feminine skinscent!! It smells fresh in the beginning. But then the peach and apricot and osmanthus arrives. It is a sweet perfect skin scent if you like fruity but not schampoo scents. This is not powdery, not soapy, not beast mode. It is soft soft floral, its very close to the skin, the vanilla and musk makes it really werable. I have it on my skin for 4 hours and I still smell it. Perfect for work, gym, sleep or for just being fresh. This is good!

I am selling mine, it's not my type, UK only, check out my profile, I'm downsizing a huge collection, lots of discontinued gems!

Gorgeous! Smells expensive, powdery vanilla white flowers apricot, niche and mature. I cannot stop smelling myself
