Well-made scent! It is definitely cohesive
Nebula, I was very curious about this fragrance and the brand Captain Fawcett's in general.
I can already say that the scent is fundamentally quite solid.
It is definitely not a bad fragrance, but also not one that blows me away. Surely it will have some fans or could still gain some, if you look at the ratings in numbers. For me, it is definitely not a 9-point fragrance.
This is probably more due to personal taste.
I was leaning between 7.5 and 8 and ultimately landed on 7.5 because it doesn't quite hit my personal taste. However, the potential is high that this could change if I wore it more often.
Then I would certainly give it a direct 8 points.
The fragrance opens fresh, almost really a kind of barbershop freshness that wafts around the nose.
In the background, the woody facets are already recognizable, as well as the iris note.
The iris note becomes increasingly intense over time and brings with it this powdery touch.
Most of the time when I smell iris, Dior Homme Intense comes to mind, and it was the same here. The two fragrances do not smell alike at all!! I still find the iris note somewhat similar, but it is, of course, wrapped in a completely different way, and thus the fragrance comes across quite differently.
The powdery iris carries the woodiness with it and also this pleasant freshness from bergamot and grapefruit.
The rosemary adds a slightly green, spicy touch. The rosemary is certainly partly responsible for the aforementioned barbershop character.
In the section where the iris becomes more and more noticeable, as well as the woody nuances, a certain sweetness also enters the scene. However, the sweetness is really subtle and finely tuned. Towards the end, we have a nice vetiver accord, further woody facets, and this beautiful clean musk.
All in all, the notes harmonize really well with each other, making Nebula easy to wear and definitely worth a test.
Unisex?
Yeah, but I see it more on the masculine side.
Still, I would argue that due to the quite powdery iris, a woman could possibly wear it as well.
Performance?
It's okay.
Longevity on my skin is about 6 hours.
Sillage is moderate and pleasant.

Teste den gerade, dank einer Abfüllung.
Was die Iris angeht, da fällt mir eher einer der Prada L'Hommes ein. Geht beinahe eins zu ein mit einem von denen. Wobei ich einen Direktvergleich noch nachholen werde.
