Excellent fragrance! What a pity it’s discontinued; it was a work of art, exquisite, and very different from most.
I completely agree with Gabriel; the closest thing to this work of art is Allure Traditionnel.
Honestly, even though they say it’s captivating, I don’t find it delicious at all, and it’s very expensive: 50 euros for 1.7 oz, and the longevity is short. I regret buying it.
They say it’s a love spell, but honestly, it doesn’t smell good at all. Plus, the price is insane: 50 euros for 1.7 oz that lasts like a flash. I regret buying it.
Starts very intense and special with lavender, cardamom, and nutmeg; for a moment it reminded me of YSL La Nuit de l’Homme, though they aren’t the same. They share cardamom, lavender, caraway, and cedar, but Nemo has more spices and florals. At the 5-hour mark, the lavender was still there, but with more weight on florals like carnation and geranium. Then I thought I detected a hint of incense, perhaps from the leather, labdanum, and patchouli. The dry down is long and soft, loaded with cedar and patchouli. The best part is the opening and heart; the rest is a standard formula. As an oriental, it’s decent, but it lacks enough wood to be truly woody; it’s more of a spiced oriental. It’s a young winter fragrance with a moderate trail (it gets heavy if overapplied) and lasts about 12 hours clinging to the skin at the end. Discontinued, what a shame.
VERY LONG-LASTING, VERY SWEET, similar to Fahrenheit Absolute. Try it yourself, you don’t need to take my word for it—just try it!
Stopped by a perfume shop and spotted an old box of this discontinued fragrance. I asked to smell it, and far from the vintage vibe I expected, it smelled like rotting organic trash. It seems nutmeg is the culprit, as other similar notes have also been criticized for that dirty odor. I didn’t even apply it; smelling it from the bottle was enough to rule it out. Lucky for me it doesn’t last long or have a strong trail.
I walked into a store and saw an old box of this discontinued fragrance. I couldn’t resist, and the clerk showed it to me. I was hoping for something vintage, but it smells like organic trash. I guess it’s that nutmeg note that gets criticized in other scents too. I didn’t even apply it; just sniffed the bottle and found it repulsive. Lucky it has no sillage and doesn’t last.
UNFORTUNATELY, IT’S ALREADY DISCONTINUED HERE IN MEXICO. IT WAS A VERY GOOD FRAGRANCE AND LASTED ON ME AROUND 6 TO 8 HOURS. IT’S ONE OF THOSE FRAGRANCES WHERE EVEN THOUGH YOU SWEAT MODERATELY, AFTER WASHING THE CLOTHES, THERE’S STILL A TRACE OF THE SCENT. I LOVE THE BOTTLE DESIGN; IT WAS VERY ORIGINAL.
Nemo is a sweet, bright wood with a touch of cinnamon that gives it an earthy, warm, and spicy character. It’s vibrant, woody, and acidically masculine. It certainly deserves the fame given by its lovers; it’s very well-rounded, but I must complain about its performance: you have to overapply it. Its premium price isn’t justified, but beyond the hype or eBay listings, Nemo is a great scent. Cacharel has produced some excellent men’s perfumes. Autumn-Winter.
Nemo by Cacharel is a sweet, bright wood with a light touch of cinnamon that gives it an earthy, warm, and spicy character. Its behavior is vibrant, woody, and acidically masculine. Undoubtedly, it deserves the fame its lovers have given it; it’s a very rounded fragrance. I only ask for its performance, meaning you have to overapply it, and its overpricing is absolutely unjustified. However, beyond hypes or eBay… Nemo is a great aroma. Cacharel gave us very good perfumes for men. Two seasons: autumn-winter.
Nemo by Cacharel was a legacy given to me by a friend who passed away a few days ago; it’s not the best way to inherit a perfume, but I am enormously grateful for the gift. It opens with sparkling nutmeg, cardamomo, and pepper, with a dynamic and modern touch of lavender, not like the 80s kind. There is a soft sweetness that reminds me of Envy for Men, but attenuated by caraway and geranium, avoiding overly sugary chords. The floral notes aren’t obvious but balance the composition. The woods and leather reinforce the masculinity. Performance is moderate (6-7 hours) with moderate projection and sillage. At first, I thought it was very similar to Envy for Men, but today I noticed it’s quite different; maybe common notes like cardamomo, leather, and pepper deceived me. Actually, there’s nothing it resembles, although at times it evokes others. It has hints of dried fruit, leather, spices, subtle woods, and incense. The aroma is very pleasant and has good potential. It works better in cool climates, especially at night. It’s a very special jewel that left stores for incomprehensible reasons. Is it worth paying so much for a full bottle? Only if it’s your favorite, you’re a devoted follower, and you have the money. Note: Fragrance 9/10, Longevity 7/10, Sillage 7/10, Projection 7/10, Versatility 8/10. Average 7.6/10. P.S.: Rest in peace, dear José.

The collection of the great Bofifa is spectacular, as is his perfumery competition, availability, and kindness. Nemo by Cacharel is another example of how fragrances were made years ago, creations to enjoy and dream about. On the first spray, a fine blend of soft spices, delicately gourmand, with subtle and light sweetness that wraps around you with clarity. It’s not overwhelming in sillage and projection; I think the dosage seeks a harmonious result that makes you think of a fairy tale and knights in armor. The bottle is unusual and beautiful, just like this creation that saw the light in times unsuitable for its commercial success. Perfumery loses a pretty, complex creation, with delicious floral and woody notes, very special.
There’s no doubt that years ago, fragrances had much higher quality than today’s… I don’t know what went through the house’s head to stop producing it. It reminds me a lot of Gucci Envy in its uniqueness, but Nemo is closer to my tastes. Maybe it was considered weird when it launched, hence its short market life, but what a shame. It smells like very spiced leather with subtle, balanced cardamomo, nutmeg, some woody notes, and a very subtle vanilla. There’s cinnamon or something that resembles its scent. It’s not a bomb, nor does it last hours on end, but so what? There are hundreds of fragrances with more sillage and longevity that are mediocre. I prefer originality and quality over longevity. It’s perfect for enjoying on your own, not for others to smell. I always hope they will release fragrances like this again because I don’t understand how they can die and be forgotten. I hope L’Oréal does something right and launches a special edition of what they themselves took away.
I recently found this delight that I owned when it launched in 2000. The 30ml bottle was factory-sealed, never used, with no oxidation or loss of nuances. Bach Code from 2001; this Nemo sat in the dark for 20 years and has now returned. With just two sprays, my memories traveled back 20 years. What memories of this beautiful fragrance: a warm, slightly spicy spicy opening, with that rich lavender that has a special sweetness but isn’t cloying or invasive. It’s delicious and unique. It doesn’t have beastly projection, but I don’t care; the luxury of smelling something discontinued that I used in my youth is priceless. How lovely you are, Nemo, and welcome back to my life after 20 years.
This is one of my favorite perfumes, and that says it all. For me, Nemo is an aromatic oriental. The ever-present lavender, paired with spices, is what leads me to this classification. The opening is sparkling and effervescent, yet not citrusy; instead, it’s the spices that provide that touch, complemented by a soft, slightly sweet lavender. Then other flowers emerge: the carnation becomes spicy, while the geranium adds a soapy nuance. Meanwhile, the spice blend smells like cinnamon (just like you, @Pplu), or somewhere between cinnamon and nutmeg. That phase is gorgeous. In the base, there’s a hint of leather and patchouli. For some reason, I associate this final stage with velvet, perhaps due to its softness, opulence, and warmth. It lasts about 6-8 hours; the first two notes project strongly in the environment before settling closer to the skin. Although marketed for men, a friend wore it and it suited her perfectly. It works for any season, even summer, just on cool nights. This review is from a bottle from the late 2000s.
This is one of my favorite perfumes, so that pretty much says it all. For me, Nemo is an aromatic oriental. Lavender is always present, along with spices, which is why I classify it this way. The opening is sparkling and bubbly, without citrus; it’s the spices creating that effect, paired with a soft, slightly sweet lavender. Then other flowers appear: the carnation becomes spiced, and the geranium adds a soapy touch. Meanwhile, the spice blend smells like cinnamon (I agree with you, @Pplu) or somewhere between cinnamon and nutmeg. This phase is gorgeous. In the base, there’s a bit of leather, very little, and patchouli. For some reason, I associate this final phase with velvet, due to its softness, opulence, and warmth.

What a shame for the world of perfume lovers that they discontinued it. It was my first perfume back in 1999, and it had a particularly exquisite scent.
Honestly, it’s heartbreaking that they stopped making this fragrance; it was one of the best I’ve ever used.
I scoured every underground perfume shop until a condescending clerk told me it was discontinued. I resigned myself to going to the only place that still had it—those places with outrageous prices—and bought it blind in 50ml for about $75 (I think I got ripped off). Forget the absurd price: it smells unique, nothing like today’s perfumes. It opens with lavender and cardamomo, then moves to nutmeg with a subtle suede base. Basically, it’s cardamomo with nutmeg and a constant touch of vanilla. The performance is poor; it doesn’t project past the first hour and lasts about 6 hours (maybe it’s an old batch). It smells sweet but nothing like current perfumes. Maybe it was a precursor to the sweet and spicy men’s scents that are trendy now, like SWY Intensely. Is it worth it today? No, there are cheaper options that last longer. But if it’s one of those that brings nostalgia, you tell me. The bottle is very peculiar, Y-shaped with a rotating ball atomizer. I think it’s stored upside down in the box and I was scared it would leak, but the industrial design is original.
