Neblina Yves Rocher for women

this is unique..not like every new predictable floral or fruity scent that enters the market..this really smells of exotic,damp junge.the problem is that it is a little too overwhelming to wear,anyhow I recommend..It's sweet but not too much,very characteristic

There was a time I had this perfume in cream form ( little plastic box, about 5 ml). I liked it. Neblina was honey and green notes in my perception. An interesting green, sweet scent, somehow green oriental. I wouldn't have thought Sophia Grojsman created it! It was a positive scent, suitable for all seasons, better to wear in a daytime, but whatever a person likes ;).

I wore this alot in my early 20s until it was discontinued. Loved the green, earthy scents in this one, would love to see it back in YR's selections!

AMAZING review Lilldy!!

Neblina was my very first perfume. I had gotten the Day/Night set when I was in my early teens and I remember at the time how mystical this scent was and I was saddened when the day version broke during a move. I still have the night version which I've used sparingly over the years and would mostly just smell it every now and then for inspiration. Finally, I got another bottle on ebay (the one pictured) and it just arrived yesterday. I'm so excited, that I just had to write my first review. Please keep in mind I just started collecting perfumes and I am not knowledgeable enough to distingish each note, so all I can add is my thoughts.
At first inhale, it sent me to the rainforest just after a down pour, when everything is so lush, green, and clean. All the scents of the flowers and folliage mingle together. Then as the hours go by, it's like the sun slowly dries everything and the flowery notes become more prominent and the green notes go to the background. I actually put it on again just before I went to bed, and I when I sniffed my wrist this morning only a faint smell was left but most of the green was gone and it smelled sweet, not sugary but more like nectar. The difference I detect with this one and the Night version, I think is the night is just more potent and the green notes are stronger (it is an EDP, but from what I remeber of the Day version I think it smelled just like this one).
I don't think this scent is for everyone, but I'm so glad my body chemistry agrees with it. It's green like the forest not mowed grass, the flowery smell is like flowers from imagination, it's enchanting without being overtly seductive. Final thought, this scent makes me feel like a woodland fairy living in New Zealand :P.

for me it smells a bit like "fantasy by britney" on the dry down.. but the top is too citrusy

This is a rich and nice orchid scent. I used to have it and liked it. Also my surroundings liked it. Maybe today it would be too green for me. It has been discontinued anyway.

I do not know why they describe it as a fruity one, when to me it smells more of a green scent. Maybe the EDP is different? But my EDP smelled more green with Amber notes, like a fresh mountain spring. At first yes, it smelled a little fruity, and then subtled into a mossy green like fragrance. Not particularly my fave, but a nice scent.

At last I can review the EDT version!

It is far different from my EDP L'aube Neblina !!!!

EDT is soft and smooth, the opening smells to me like a not fully ripen apricot :-) Green-ish, but still mouthwatering and fruity, with a hint of orange peel. The orchid makes the heart floral sweet, it is gorgeous when melting with green grass and oak moss notes.

Neblina EDT is more chypre fruity than fruity aromatic to my nose. Those, who are fond of Sophia's creations will certainly love this one. Neblina has good staying power and sillage for an EDT and in my opinion, the fragrance is universal - can be worn day or night, summer or winter, casual or formal. I am glad to have this little gem in my collection. I never gave Yves Rocher much chance to get acquainted with me and i was so wrong!!!
Neblina is now one of my favourite chypre fruity fragrances.

Worth trying if you love the idea of a dewy apricot pulp and aromatic orchid petals on a calming oak moss base.

You soooo deserve it my sister, after all that's happened, I hope it lifts your spirit!!
Big hugs!!

NEBLINA IS A MIRACLE!I could only dream of having this awesome perfume...now thanks to my wonderful sister Action ,i am spraying this on me!!!How do describe it???
Well,a burst of sweet fruity freshness with the undertones of spicy -floral crispy notes.Earthy,greenish chypre that you can easily call it a gourmand .
It's unique and lovely so easily wearable all the year around!!!
Thank you once more Action for this treasure!!!

I have an EDP bottle and I am not sure if it is in any way similar to EDT????
To me, the EDP smells more oriental rather than fruity. I can detect soft floral notes, a hint of peach, cinnamon & caraway + oakmoss.
No sweetness, no particular 'fruitiness', just decent winter oriental. Spicy bouquet :-)
In a way, it slightly reminds me of Magnifique by Lancome.
Lovely fragrance, quite powerful oriental - even without looking at fragrance description you can tell it is one of Sophia Grojsman creations :-)
Neblina EDPO is complex, rich but not 'exaggerated'.
I am looking forward to try the EDT version of Neblina and see if it is any more fruity :-)

I would like to try this.The bottle is AMAZING.

This is indeed a masterpiece by Ms Grosjman!!! I get most of the fruits here on my skin, but I have this with most Fruity Floral scents.
Neblina is a very well balanced soft fruity, spicy scent. I love its drydown.
This scent is playful romantic but also chic and serious!! One of the nice gems of YR. Have a backup bottle if anyone is interested!

Wauw Sofiii, I loooove your review!!!

Neblina is quite an unusual perfume and the best creation of Sophia Grojsman’s which I’ve tried so far.
The start is really oriental; it’s spiced-up fruit. It is fresh and oriental (as in oriental market, spice shop) at the same time. Somehow it reminds me a lot of the spirit of Kenzo Jungle L’Elephant, but Neblina has something sly, green, something girly sexy, something contradiction but still light spirited and nice here, not as grounded and self-assured as Jungle L’Elephant.

Soon there’s this candled waxy rose and incense smell come up and mix well and softern the spiceness. At this stage it reminds me quite a few female perfumes created by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, but Neblina is richier and spicier.

Then it goes like a green, light, slightly powdery and also spicy rose scent, which is quite intriguing. It is like a perfect buoyancy of west and east. The spicyness infused with floral brings out a peculiar kind of freshness which reminds me of some feelings Mitsouko invokes. However, at the same time, there’s a certain type of rich, grand, goldenness that Paris makes me feel sometimes.

When it hit the mid/dry down, it’s lovely! It is like spice + plum jerky + all kinds of dry fruits + a tiny bit Chai Latte.
The final dry out is to die for. It smells like dry, slightly burnt and spiced vanilla. I find it sexy and addictive, somehow in the same addictive way as Thirrey Mugler’s Angel. However, Neblina is different from Angel in the attitude. Angel has a type of bald, sweet vanilla, high-voltage sugared, intoxicating, addictive and even devilish sexiness. However, Neblina has a touch of old Shanghai charm, imagining the girl in film ‘Lust, Causion’ wearing Neblina.

this fragrance is worth every droplet...like liquid erotic nectar...its hypnotic, makes you feel sweet and uhmmm "high", like the feeling of being in love.

Hi you all, I can see someone linking this one to Volupté, since they are both children of Sophia Grosjman. To my nose Volupté is a real melon perfume, and Neblina is a soft green apricot. But everyone smells a perfume in it's own way that's for sure!!

dear friends,

for those who are desperately in search for the neblina: believe it or not , but the 'Volupte' of ' Oscar de la renta' is exactly the same, it is just a switch of name and brand. Maybe , the volupte is a bit more strong, like the parallel between an 'eau de toilette' and the 'eau de parfum'. But the same , for sure...

grtz

Why is this parfum out of roulation? A year ago i could buy it by YvesRoucher and now it's gone!! I did want to buy a new bottel but that is now not possible.

It's really a shame that NEBLINA has been discontinued. It was an unique fragrance by my favorite perfumer Sophia :-))
Moisty-fruity-delicious-mysterious-wonderful.

@ Action: Actually, GypsyQueenMother (my mom) gave you HER Neblina, so we could have another bottle of Ode a la Vie in the house-Thank you so much!! :-)

Thankgod I now have a backup of this beauty !! Gypsy perfumista was so nice to swap his bottle for my Ode la Vie. When Neblina was first released I though it to be too much for me. And therefor I didn't stock up. Later in time I smelled a mini and thought, what a wonderful sweet moisty green perfume! And now I am glad to own two 50 ml bottles. Sadly YR had by then decided to downsize amounts. I wish I had a 100 ml bottle of it!!

Neblina was a nice fragrance.
If Tarzan's Jane had worn prefume, then Neblina would have been her signature scent.
The fragrance was so feminine and unusual.
When I wore it, I knew I turned heads.

I am a relative newcomer to YR (only since late 2005) and was lucky enough to acquire this one at 1/3 the normal price. According to Basenotes it is still available and in production but I haven't seen it on the website in quite a while, in the US at least...

The PR on this sums it up very well: 'an airy tropical botanical scent, full of aromas from the Mountain of Mists'. This opens with a wonderful sobralia orchid note surrounded by juicy orange and sweet apricots, like a summer night in the jungle. The fruitiness fades quickly and leaves you awash in floral notes that are heady but not too, too strong. Orchid is foremost supported by violets and powdery white florals, feminine-yes but quite alluring nonetheless. I imagine indigenous rain forest peoples draped with flowers dancing into the night, welcoming you and celebrating all of nature resplendent around them. As the bonfires burn low and the full moon rises over the mountains, drawn by the power of the moon you head for the Mountain of Mists, feeling and smelling the dewy grass beneath your bare feet. As you ascend, the trees give forth the velvety essences of pungent mosses and a mysterious musk rises from the ancient forests. As you rise above the world the smells and sounds fade, the scent of flowers linger slightly and you smell only the mountain air, mixed with the cool mists and feel you can touch the clouds...you are one with Nature, full of life and at peace...

Sillage: above average
Longevity: very good
Overall: 4.25/5

YR also released two flankers to this wonderful perfume: The Dawn of Neblina and The Night of Neblina, released shortly after the original. I would love to smell these as I love Neblina, but they are quite expensive ($150.00 each on eBay) and I cannot justify such an expenditure at this time. If anyone has either of these I would like very much to get a sample(s) or (head bowed in reverence) decants...

This one is indeed complex. It's fruity, floral, woody, spicy and sweet. Quite strong, remarkable staying power and great sillage. I remember it drove boys crazy, in a good way that is! It's a shame they don't sell it anymore.

This is such an unique perfume unbelievable...it is soft but strong..it is sweet but spicy...it is green...but fruity..
it is like a perfect mix of everything!!
love it!

porfavor que me digan alguien de donde puedo comprar el parfume .. neblina..?

my favorite from YR, and it have quite a good sillage, which can not be said of the "Ode" collection.

I finally found me some Neblina!!
It is wonderful and soft, typical Grosjman child.
Action

just love this scent!!! its mysterious and classy.

I got this in a little mini gift set with other mini things that my gma got me for a birthday present about 6 years ago.. I do vaguely remember the smell and it was very pretty although i was only 15 at the time so I didn't wear perfume! I do hope to smell this again some day! Maybe ill try and hunt it down when my other stuff gets low : )

love it ,
soft and feminine
gentle and strong at the same time ! you can smell the violet its sweet , but not to sweet
this perfume has almost a green scent at first and than dries down quickly to a powdery floral almost .

It last longer than most .
The bottle is just classic unique :)

i agree, its unusual, special, very green and very interesting! its like u can hear the rain drops the water and the birds deep in the tropical rain-forest, its not too powery, not too sweet, a bunch of oakmoss and wood on the base, wonderful, in the middle i smell lots of orchid, but i can not smell any fruits sorry... the staying power is SUPERSTRONG!!!

Just one of a damn extraordinary perfume :-) Neblina is interesting, unusual, greenish, resembling extremely humid tropical forest in the middle of Amazonia, full of rare floral scents... But it is also very strong and many people around you may dislike it! I had miniature of this scent few years ago and I think in particular way it's the strongest perfume I ever came across.

To my nose, this is a perfect mix of Believe by Britney Spears and Libertine by Vivienne Westwood. Hard to imagine, I know, but as katyas already said, this one is very difficult to describe...

I definitely got the orange and apricot in its opening, but I thought I also detected pineapple and that isn't listed. Slightly peppery in its opening, but after a few minutes begins to calm down into a musky white floral.

I think this would be best in fall/winter when the weather is cooler...it seems too cloying and musky for the summer time. Also lasts a VERY long time!

I tried to give it many chances but it's not for me. I love the bottle but the scent is too musky for me. I don't smell any fruitness in it. It's very long lasting so be carefull applying it. I do believe that this fragrance requires some unique personality...if you have one I can swap this perfume. It's 95% full (50ml)

I haven't seen Neblina at YR for long time... maybe they discontinued it. I didn't know it was a Grojsman's creation but that makes sense! Neblina was a very pleasant, very sweet airy gourmand, easy going with some personality. A lively, playful scent that was one of my friend's faves years ago, so it will always remind me of her.

This is a fun and lively scent that gives an interesting mix of fruits, florals and woods. This is a unique scent - it is very difficult to describe, really. I believe Yves Rocher is still carrying this - or rather, they were last time I checked, but it was on clearance, so maybe they were getting rid of it at the time. It would be a pity if they were, as it is one of those scents that are just simply not like anything else out there. Definitely give this one a try if you can.
