Nuvol de Llimona is a delicious fragrance developed by the famous pastry chef Jordi Roca of the restaurant El Celler de Can Roca (Girona, Catalonia, Spain). With the co-operation of perfumer Agustí Vidal, Jordi has captured the essence of the dish, a “lemon muffin soaked in milk”, and has successfully encapsulated its flavour in a bottle of fragrance.
Top notes are bergamot and tangerine; middle notes are lily-of-the-valley, milk and custard; base notes are sugar syrop and toasted sugar. Nuvol de Llimona was launched in 2011. The nose behind this fragrance is Agusti Vidal.

This is similar to fresh's brown sugar, but weaker and less sweet. Not sweet enough for me, and not custardy or creamy to my nose.
Lordnuey, clognano and leeylah87 :
Thanks for having reviewed this one.
I took it out of my test-list because it's not gonna be desserty enough for me.
Lemon Cloud opens with a bright, slightly sweet lemon - no sharp edges at all. For being inspired by a dessert, it is not too sweet or sugary at all (unlike Fresh Sugar Lemon, which I find very sweet and sugary). There is something very comforting about it and I think luckyscent's description of it being "gentle" is very accurate. It truly is cloud-like! On me, the dry down turns softly musky and slightly creamy, but not too much - the lemon still remains cheerful. I don't get any milky notes, but I do get a *touch* of custard. Very nice!
I really do enjoy the scent!! It's sweet in the right way not cloyingly sweet ! BUT this scent has a very very poor staying power :( I think it's a cologne, correct? It's a shame such a nice scent but weak staying power. I've to keep it in my pocket so i will be able to re-apply it :( pedestrian bottle, but gorgeous packaging!
Yes, it sounds so good ... and I couldn't resist and bought it unsniffed. I got the citrus and was waiting for the creamy and gourmand scent and this did not happen. It's not bad but nothing special. Try it on first.
I was fortunate enough to find this one on ebay, I bought it within a heartbeat... My package arrived today, and i couldn't be anymore thrilled. I dreamed of a very yummy scent ever based on the notes.
I was wrong! It's a very citrus scent. Its opening really remind me of Jo Malone's Jasmine and Orange-blossom then it turn out to be a custard-y kinda smell,, i dunno.. I don't know if i like it or not, i'll try it on tomorrow to find out!
Thanks for your review, TQ.
As you had the opportunity to test it, I have a question for you : does the scent corresponds to the notes here above ? Does it really smell like custard ?
I had the opportunity to test the fragance before it was launched, at Celler de Can Roca resturant (3***Michelin). Its beutiful!!
Unfortunately i havent fouded yet as I think it is only sold at t'he restaurant, placed at Girona Spain
OMFG I want and NEED this now! It sounds SO good! I read a review on it and it sounds like sweet comforting heaven in a bottle! DELICIOUSNESS! I'll have to order a sample before I commit to a bottle. I had no idea this existed until today and truly wish I had put it on my xmas list. Does anyone have a time machine I can borrow? Ha! : )
