I only have the spray version – it’s a nice floral but isn’t long lasting and neither does it have good sillage. Maybe the oil is much better? Can someone who has the oil as well as the spray tell us which one is better (in terms of scent, sillage and longevity). Thanks!

I have had this for a while but only worn it a few times. Smelling from the bottle might seem a bit sharp but once you apply it, it’s a lot more mellow. It’s all encompassingly girlie, pretty and non offensive. You could wear this almost anywhere and it wouldn’t seem out of place( office, date, wedding). For the price its great and one of the better Al Rehabs. I smell some kind of citrus opening + Jasmine and other flowers, and it’s rather effervescent though not specifically adelhydic I do not detect any oud/ outh.. Reminds me of Tresor, Boudoir and J’adore but not a dupe.
If you like Boudoir but find it too animalic or Tresor but it’s too dated try this. It’s so inexpensive and I think 80% of people will like it.

Whenever I use this perfume I get compliments. It seem to be more attractive to others than to myself, I like it but perfumes focused on rose are always a bit difficult for me, specially when they are sweet and fruity.

Nebras smells super happy…it exudes playfulness
it’s powdery, musky, floral and only slightly sweet and fresh
I had a dark red candle when I was a teenager..it had this wonderful scent that always hypnotized me when I lit it…I smelled near two thousand fragrances hoping to find something that smelled like it
eventually I decided to take a piece of it I had left to a chemist who said he would analyze the scent molecules to figure out what’s in it
It was around the same time that I blind bought Nebras…the moment I sprayed it, I was filled with gratitude and joy when I smelled its drydown on my skin…and find that this is indeed my candle!
sergei111 – :
~LIKE~
It’s warm, cozy, and feminine.
Excellent on clothes but absolutely terrible on my skin. It blows up and gets louder and stronger on my skin. It’s just way too much, however on clothes it’s perfect. I just keep sniffing my shirt because Nebras smells so wonderful. To me, this smells similar to Rihanna Nude (I actually don’t like that one on my skin either, maybe it’s the powdered florals that drives me nuts). Nude is sweet powdery florals.
Nebras is sweet powdery floral lemonade. <3

Oh, my word. This is a Beauty! I have worn it during spring and summer, and this is a transforming gem, giving away more noticable scents of carnation the hotter it gets. Otherwise, I detect peony, lovely, fruity notes and some other, yummy notes I can’t identify. Stays pretty linear on my skin. Incredible longevity. My husband also loves this perfume, which is a plus. A feminine and elegant scent, and at bargain price – 10/10 from me!
crotrob – :
This smells like Istanbul! Its the minty star jasmine flowing over the doorways and rose gardens in the summer sun. Just lovely!
lebedevsg1 – :
I am wearing Nebras today and can not believe I have never written a review yet for this unusual gem.
My first impression is candied flowers,but there develops so much more. There is a distinct vintage vibe I am supposing is from the very distinct powdery notes and possibly a bit of carnation. I am reminded just a little of Organza at times, though this is really so different. There is also an almost zippy freshness to this scent, the entire effect becomes almost gourmand and mouthwatering, which is quite an impressive feat for a floral based scent to achieve.
MyclactUninty – :
The girl I love wears Nebras. The scent is so deeply linked with positive, happy, sexy, loving feelings that it’s impossible to separate the fragrance from the girl. So, given that bias, the best I can do is to enthusiastically recommend Nebras as a sensual adjunct to anyone in love.
cktpsfyutkf123 – :
You can not fault this. And the price??!! 😮 Remarkable.
Sergio85 – :
This perfume is LIFE!!! I can say 100, that this is the best Al Rehab fragrance. I was hoping to get the beautiful, sweet pink cloud scent that few were talking about here, and I do! Man, it smells euphorically good. Someone also described a fizziness to it and YES! Nebras screams BEAUTIFUL and it is a serious arsenal must have-I can’t stop sniffing it-love perfumes like that!
Serj2011 – :
Holy mother. I love this perfume in a way I have never loved any other perfume. I revere it. I bow down to it. If I had to choose one (god forbid) perfume to wear for the rest of my life, it would be this.
Never before in my life have I been so gripped by a scent. There are many that I like, including Boudoir which is similar, but Nebras is so beautiful on my skin that it gives me tears. I think it smells like god. It literally makes my heart ache.
Now, I don’t necessarily think everyone will have this reaction to it (although I see this one has crept up into many top 10s). That’s not the purpose of this review. What I want to say is that, after having this experience, I think every perfume lover deserves to find a true soul mate in a bottle. I think I’ve found mine.
CoRSaR73 – :
I can’t say enough good things about this gem of a bargain fragrance. Nebras was my first foray into Arabian oils and I only bought it because I saw it compared to Womanity. It’s nothing like Womanity, but it is a great dupe for Boudoir. In fact, I love Nebras way more than Boudoir. It’s fresher thanks to an added citrus note, but still musky and sensual.
Big, warm, powdery florals surround you in a heavenly cloud all day and all night. Seriously the projection and longevity on this little $5 oil are insane. I put one dab on each wrist and it’s more than enough. This stuff outperforms nearly all of my other perfumes. I swear Al Rehab is an amazing fragrance house.. I don’t understand how they can pack so much quality into such a bargain but they do!
Gusarwyglm – :
Another Al-Rehab gem.
A strong, sweet yet fizzy floral – mostly rose and citrus. The citrus makes it fresher and more peppy, as rose can be a bit ‘old’ or ‘old school romantic’. It projects very well and lasts 10+ hours on clothes.
Fun and sweet, although not completely silly or girly, could potentially be unisex although it’s more feminine than masculine.
Overall excellent value for money and perfect for a spring/autumn floral perfume.
Jock84 – :
Ye it does smell just like boudoir but cheaper and longer lasting
itguy16 – :
This is my third Al-Rehab and my first success with this brand.
This one is lovely.
I have this in an oil and the first whiff is mostly bitter citrus with a slight hint of flowers. But it quickly becomes a pink, powdery, flowery cloud. So, so pretty!! It smells a bit vintage, in the best way. The way that brings to mind my grandma sitting at her vanity, powdering her face and neck with Chantilly or White Shoulders dusting powder.
It smells sweet too. While hanging out with my family this past weekend, my aunt (the same aunt who asked me if I was drinking in the car when I wore Drew Barrymore’s Radiant Flower to Christmas ….hahaha!) looks around the room and said “Does anyone else smell cotton candy?” It was the Nebras. It is not sickeningly sweet in a way that hurts your teeth it just smells kinda warm and yummy. This one is amazing!
fara94 – :
This tickles my nose like champagne. Bubbly. I would love to meet a woman wearing Nebras.
ReStar – :
i definitely get a pink flowery bubblegum vibe from this. there’s a soft spice to it that really grounds it. pink, fluffy clouds = my ultimate happy place image and i see what people are saying when they say this smells like pink clouds!
i’ve noticed with all the al rehab perfumes i’ve tried that they really shine in the dry down! sometimes the openings can be too strong for me and i need to wait for it to calm down to enjoy it. i like to apply these oils an hour before i need to leave to go out (if i’m wearing them out! i wear them inside too.) to really let the smell develop. 🙂
honestly i got this oil months ago and have left it untouched since i have a bad habit of using a lot. i took it out again to experiment yesterday. just a dab without rolling of the roller ball is perfect since otherwise i’m overtaken by the smell and almost feel sick. this is definitely not weak stuff. i plan on getting the spray version because i love it so much now.
perfect-m-tch – :
This, this is what I like in a feminine fragrance! This is so pretty and I think the pink cloud that people have described is spot on. You truley feel like you’re in your own fabulous bubble of perfume. I didn’t get girlie girl till my older years I’m 38 now and I find that this scents suits me just fine. It’s a very strong scent I literally only put 3 small dabs and I could smell this all around me. So I will go very lightly with this. I love this floral power house it makes me feel so good to wear this, the powdery drydown is so nice and it’s still floral just with a touch of powder. So good!
I’m so happy I bought a backup of this as I can see myself and I have been wearing it non stop since I got it. For 5$ I’m just so happy with this womanly heaven. If I were 16 and found out about this me and my girlfriends would of been all over this trying to act older than our years. This is a good one to own from Al Rehab if you like a florals and very western in my opinion. I adore everything about it and am so happy others enjoy this type of fragrance as well. Namaste’.
eumncq – :
This has legendary sillage and longevity that I wish all my perfumes have. Fortunately the fragrance is beautiful otherwise you’re gonna wait for days, short of washing your clothes, for it to come off. I applied it on my skin and the scent clung onto my clothes. Days later my clothes still smelled as if I just applied the oil that day.
ElectroUploader – :
Just amazing! next to Red Rose, its the best Al Rehab I have tried. I know what some reviewers are saying about it being a complete composition that smells like there ought to be so many more ingredients in it. Rose supreme with some earthy warmth that is not too sweet if applied very sparingly. got 2 6ml oils for less than 4 pounds. Its a win win on every level for me. Will order the even more economical 6 pack – great for Xmas present fillers
angelika – :
I’ve been wearing the past few days and at the same time I’ve been trying to wrap my mind around what I’m smelling. To be concise, it smells good. VERY GOOD.
The citrus that other people smell is very light. More like an undertone that makes the strong floral pop.
Here are some words that describe this to me:
Candied flowers
Powder
Jasmine
It’s very feminine, but at the end of the day it has a note can be masculine, or at least unisex. I really love this. It evolves all day. Every time I sniff my wrist or in my shirt some other note stands out.
Flowers? Definitely. There is some light musk, or something else I smell, too.
It’s truly a beautiful fragrance. I’m wearing it during a pretty warm and humid summer. I feel womanly and sensual. I’m looking forward to seeing how it transforms during the cooler months.
nata0206k – :
I have way too many bottles of perfume. This is the one my daughter picks for me to wear. It is a scent so complete that it is almost a place. It isn’t just that the perfume is strong- it is- but it makes this gorgeous little bubble in which to go about your day.
This reminds me of Madonna’s Truth or Dare. It isn’t a dupe. Nebras is brighter and fresher. ToD is plenty big but Nebras is bigger.There is big rose sitting on tuberose. It’s not listed bu it’s there. There is some citrus, but it is juice, not peel and just a little juice at that.There is a woody ambery base.
If you stood in a wood-paneled hall in a grand English estate with a grand bouquet of flowers, it might smell like this. Old and new and fresh and sweet and bright and earthy and perfect.
psv_zel – :
This is BEAUTIFUL!!!! But she is STRONG! I will go a little lighter next time. Oh my, she’s perfect. This may be in my top 10. Floral and spicy I really like it.
tigaryan – :
I received six alrehab perfumes from my lovely friend lalehrokh as a gift and I’m truely impressed.they’re all so good that it’s very difficult to choose one as best
Nebras has a retro vibe.it’s mature in the best way possible and has a glamorous vintage thing.not too mature for a 26 year old woman like me.it feels just right,ofcourse not as a casual daily scent as it’s full of class,elegance and feminity.unfortunately I’ve never tried boudoir so I can’t compare them,I also don’t know anything similar still I find nebras very familiar and nostalgic.it’s categorized as a floral green but it’s not green to my nose,also not really citrusy.it’s a reddish pink,sweet floral powder puff which smells heavenly!
There’s definitely rose in it but I can’t guess other notes,probably some oris?moss?musk?ylangylang?maybe amber?some fruits?woody notes?I can’t call it an Arabic scent,not really.I hate oud and I’m very happy that I can’t detect any oud in it.nebras is a super gorgeous, stunning,exquisite powdery floral well rounded by right amounts of Oriental and chypre notes.it’s unique,sexy,unforgettable and I love it to the point that I’m hooked!
Mine is a 35mil spray bottle which has great longevity and amazing projection.I can’t name it heavy as there’s lovely softness going on here,I’d better call it strong.it’s wearable year round,both days and nights in case you apply right amount of it.better for special occasions.I definitely will repurchase it since I want to have it always as a part of my collection.unfortunately it’s very difficult to find in my country(though it seems strange as we’re geographicly close to Arab countries)but my friend has most alrehabs and sells them for less than 10$,an unbelievable bargain!
Nebras isn’t everyone’s cup of tea,I can see that but if you’re into classic floral scents you’d love it
I can’t get enough of this sweet powdery mist around me.it smells great.I’d love to try all alrehab perfumes I can find as I like all this six one I own now
Highly recommended
اصلا نمیشه توصیفش کرد انقد خوبه.یه شاهکار کن دهها بار بیشتر از قیمتش میرزه
برای من نه مرکباتی هست نه رایحه سبزی داره نه عربی-طور هست نه حتی ذره ای عود توش حس میکنم.یه رایحه کاملا پودری-گلی داره مثل ابری از پودر صورتی و گلی و شیرین که دور آدم رو گرفته.یه حالت کلاسیک و وینتج هم مخصوصا تو اولش داره اما نه درحدی که سن عطر بالا رفته باشه.سرشار از زنانگی و جذابیته و پخش و موندگاری معرکه ای داره.بصورت چهارفصل قابل استفاده ست و بنظر من بیشتر مناسب موقعیت های خاص و مجالسه.باتوجه به خاص بودنش عطری نیست که همه بپسندن اما شدیدا توصیه میکنمش چون پیدا کردن یه عطر انقد جذاب و به یاد موندنی و دلربا و قوی تو رنج قیمتی زیر پنجاه تومن کار راحتی نیست
viktor7 – :
My next favourite after Full, this is beautiful, very very similar to Boudoir and it lasts absolutely ages on my skin! Perfect for long Summer days, very heady, floral, powdery and sexy. I was very surprised by this, it was one of my first Al Rehab purchases when I started collecting them a few years ago, I fell in love with this straight away. Colleagues at work say it smells amazing when I wear it and always know I’m somewhere in the building as it leaves a lingering trail behind me. Stunning and beautiful, and the prices are totally unbelievable xx
Gamer1 – :
Very similar to TESORI L’ORIENTE to me! Love both of them, very very sexy! It’s earthy, sweet n playful! Naughty play that is…
levitraser – :
Nebras is a feminine fragrance. Citric rose opening followed by a fluffy pink feathered face puff of creamy florals. Such a boudior ladylike scent. I wish more ladies rocked this to heighten their feminity were so sorely lacking. Its cute! Just an fyi.. The oil roll on has more of a rose and bubblegum tuberose while the spray doesnt have as much if the tuberose note. Ill add al rehab full to add a jasmine to balance out the florals or mix it with soft for a pretty gourmand floral
ChiMaoDun – :
One of the sexiest fragrances I have ever smelled. Lush powdery carnation and rose, soft spice, and a touch of skank. Projects beautifully, like a fluffy pink cloud.
hellboy008 – :
Nebras is like an olfactory oxymoron to me. I get dirty laundry detergent. Not a terrible perfume, just not for me. I hope it isn’t really too similar to VW Boudoir because I want that one and expect some serious skank but this is more like clean female sweat skank. Yeah Nebras may be a little dirty but it’s also pretty virginal. Like a young woman went on a jog and covered the mild funk with a soapy floral perfume.
kulibin120 – :
I just got the 6ml oil roll on and wore this yesterday. I haven’t tried Boudoir, but I was hoping for something close to Guess (wore that in high school). Besides, this one got so many rave reviews that I had to try it. This was very floral and nothing like Guess. It smelled very familiar though and actually seemed like a blend of Estee Lauder Beautiful and Dior J’adore to me, both of which I’ve worn extensively. It was a bit loud and ‘older’ smelling to me so definitely requires only light application. It’s not a ‘love’ for me, but I might wear it occasionally.
natadima – :
AND… Nebras just made it to my top 5. Perfume collectors know how hard it is to pick just 5 from one’s collection! I’ve worn it all weekend and am amazed by it. I love the scent, but the wondrous thing about Nebras is that IT LOVES ME! I’ve never been “hugged and kissed” by a fragrance before. Nebras does this. What a priceless frag at a very low price! I bought a second bottle right after I received my first. Good thing I did. Nebras will be the first of my new fragrances that I indeed finish off a bottle very soon. I agree with @Zhara. It is surreal. Everyone should try this gem.

Nebras is lovely…its the lovely dressing gown and elegant furry mules to Boudoir’s nightie and stilettos
mops_ua – :
Beautiful. Powerful! Easy on the trigger! Luxurious scent. I don’t know why it isn’t classified as “Poudre” also because at drydown and for 12 HOURS I have a lovely almost spicy powder that rivals Valentina Poudre. I’m waiting for my order of “Boudoir” to come so I can compare for myself. Lesson here: low price does not mean low quality!
sketlewradler – :
I have Boudoir, so I was “Hoping”. Nope, very strong floral.. I love Al Rehabs Oils, they are amazing for the price. But this is a STRONG flower. Maybe in the drydown,,hours later it will, but this is SHARP, so be aware. Boudoir is never strong or sharp at any point, & I smell WAY more potent flowers in this. Not a fan of “Soft” either, but you will love it you like A. Pink Sugar. Spot on! My faves are Choco Musk an A.Chocolovers dupe, & Al Sharquiah is great if you like an OUD Rose.(Bond 9 Perfumista Ave & Ruby Dubai). As it is toning down 10 notches, I smell the Boudoir, but it is still covered with very strong flowers, so just be sure you like that~ Natalie N on YT
PS, This is the Oil, which in my experience is your best bet anyway…
vug327elipseskism – :
Warm, soft, musky carnation. The rose is supporting. The citrus is there but stays muted. Lovely and sweet. What makes it really interesting is that I get a minty breeze wafting throughout the florals. Is that what people describe as bubblegum?
Smells very powdery pink and old fashioned to me. Kind of relaxing. This is in no way one of those rude “smells like a granny perfume” comments, but immediately Nebras reminded me of something my Grandma wore. She had wonderful taste in perfume, and introduced me to most of my first fragrances.
I don’t know which perfume this reminds me of, but it is classy and softly powerful and oozes feminine comfort. Kind of a glamour scent in my opinion. I get a vintage-y vision of lady in her silky dressing gown in front of her vanity dabbing on creams and beauty products.
I layered this with Red Rose…. winning combo!!!
petrik78 – :
The resemblance to vivienne westwood’s bodour is haunting. I would say 100% if you like that buy this at a fraction of the price. Very interesting considering the differing note composition!
егорклп – :
This one is not for me. I like some of the other Al-Rehab perfumes. This one is nice and I maybe would like it in a candle but not to wear. Its something I would expect to smell on a 65 year old church lady. I’m not trying to be rude because said church lady would smell nice. But nice and dated powdery floral is all I can put to it.
hu_go – :
This smells very classic with citrus beginning, becoming rose and carnation though with a sweetness that vintage perfumes lack. The sweetness reminds me alot of the creaminess found in tuberose. It’s a bit soapy, quite sweet, and very classic floral. If you like this you might like Saat Safa and Golden as well.
CeaxLesyWossy – :
Very powerful and gorgeous perfume.
Sedant – :
I was only exposed to the house of Al-Rehab through a dear friend who gifted me this bottle of Nebras; this was one of my first introductions into oud…and now I am totally hooked! I learned immediately why this company has such a stellar reputation, their oils are incredibly potent…one application was enough to leave me a little dizzy. This thing will singe your nostrils!
Upon first application, I am hit with a blast of citrus, followed by patchouli, orange blossom, rosewood, cedar chips and sandalwood. This is balsamic heaven with heavy incense notes and lots of oriental flowers; initial lemon notes were reminiscent of cleaning products but the floral follows up quite nicely. I don’t get “soapiness” that other reviewers have mentioned, this is pure resinous smoky rose/carnation, totally relaxing and meditative.
Nebras reminds me of that “New Age” shop smell that tend to dominate various parts of San Francisco: warm, comforting, and very cozy. The sillage and longevity are enormous, in fact once in India I witnessed shop owners hanging their clothes on wooden door frames…while burning incense below so it would infuse into the fabric. This is what I feel like is happening when rubbing Nebras into my clothes; it saturates and stays there for weeks!
This is my first experience with the Saudi Arabian fragrance line, and I love it. I can’t believe how potent their perfumes are for such a bargain price, really makes you wonder about all those watered down reformulations from big house names. Overall a real bargain!

Diextaltabara – :
To me, this smells very much like a cross between VW Boudoir and Bal a Versailles… a very western, sweet floral blend of carnation, rose, and indolic blossoms with a touch of aldehydes over a slightly-skanky base dominated by musk and civet… and to think that something of this quality only cost me 5USD! I almost don’t want to talk about it so that I can keep this little secret bargain to myself! A.m.a.z.i.n.g in all respects: longevity on my skin at 70F is over 12 hours.
EDIT: I’d like to add that I’ve been increasing the skank factor by layering Nebras over Untitled #8. The combo is lovely, increasing the depth without disturbing the construction of either as they “lock” seamlessly.
EDIT: I’ve been seeing reviewers after mine come up with “fluffy pink cloud” to describe the visual impression of this fragrance, and I absolutely agree with that!
Today I tried layering it with Al Rehab’s ‘White Musk’, and find the combo really pleasant- they bond well together. I am nearly finished with my first bottle of CPO as I’ve been wearing it quite often, so had to splurge on the 6-pack so that I’m safely in stock for awhile.
Love this perfume so much.
karen) – :
This stuff is a power house and no mistake, it’s kind of weird as it seems like a nice quiet and soft ladylike scent but it’s Really Really LOUD. A well blended floral with a nice creaminess, but because of its strength it wasn’t working for me. So I added in a little drop of Al-rehab Sheikhah, and it’s perfect!
igrok1190 – :
All I need is to find a retail store to sniff all Al Rehab scents to get very close to the ninche perfumes. The price is very cheap and quality is natural, sweet, bouquet of flowers and does not have oud in it. All year round day. This can not substitute for Une Rose or La Fille de Berlin because Nebras does not have the spice.
tanas-59 – :
I am both humored and annoyed at Al-Rehab’s lack of correct notes.
This is so much more!
Now I have not tested Boudoir, but this is exactly what it smells like… The dressing room of a naughty lady. The most surprising (and thrilling) note I get is Cabochard-esque leather! Leather covered in roses, powder, and a little bit of feminine must. But leather is unmistakable to my nose.
This opens with an explosion, but as is the case with most Al-Rehabs, it quickly settles into my skin and becomes a beautiful, classic, feminine, slightly sweet fragrance. Very different from my first experience with this scent. Now that I have more experience, I am a bit more apt to identify and appreciate the notes.
A definite winner!
stalker_9787 – :
The notes look so ho-hum but I know better with Al-Rehab so I got some Nebras anyway. I was really shopping for Elena but citrus and I have been getting closer due to summer in the desert. Both came in the same package. Opening the bag a huge waft, huge blankets, of some sort of delight surrounded me. Which one was that?! Quickly saw it was Nebras. Ha! The one I thought might be a disappointment. Immediately applied liberally to both arms. I’ll leave the individual note identification to others far more qualified. Whatever flowers and citruses they got working together here was like getting the most awesome and unexpected gift. Indeed, there must be a missing note or two marrying the ones listed here.
gbhj – :
This review is for the 6ml oil roll on…
I’m surprised at how much I love this scent! On me, it opens as an innocent soapy rose, clean and feminine. After an hour or so, the mid notes reveal themselves and I get a bit of white floral, similar to jasmine or tuberose? My favorite is after the fourth hour, and the warm, resin-y base notes appear. Benzoin and caramel, perhaps? But not overly sweet… just pleasantly warm and a little spicy. One reviewer said it reminded them of Madonna’s Truth or Dare (one of my favorites) and I agree, but without the huge tuberose/gardenia opening. Nebras is quieter, but somehow richer and deeper. And for those who worry it won’t project, as is the case with most oils, not to worry… it’s definitely a compliment getter. I’ve also ordered the EDP spray as I just can’t get enough of this scent! Gorgeous!
Edit: I’ve been wearing this scent for several months now and it’s quickly become my signature. I love how iit’s both classic (spicy carnation and rose soapiness) and modern (smoky vanilla caramel gourmand base) at the same time. It’s difficult to describe this scent because there are so many nuances, and I discover new ones every time I wear it. It is by far my most complimented fragrance. People are always saying how good I smell. And to think this magic in a bottle retails for less than $5! I’ve since started buying the 35ml spray and a few squirts on neck and chest over a couple light dabs of the perfume oil is enough to last a good 12+ hours. I’ve read that others have experimented with layering Nebras with other Arabian attars, but I haven’t done that yet. To me Nebras by itself is perfection, and who am I to mess with perfection? 🙂 But someday I’m sure I will be tempted, if only out of curiosity. If you’ve been thinking of trying Nebras, don’t hesitate! You’ll be surprised at what you’ve been missing.

Fragrance Review For Nebras
By Al Rehab
NOTES
FLORAL NOTES
CITRUS
LEMON
Nebras is a beautiful citrusy floral with a lot of other things going on. It smells like Boudoir according to some but what I smell is a unique type of citrus based floral Oriental. There is also no way it’s only got 3 notes as I picked up on other scents.
I detected orange blossom among the floral notes, neroli, peony, rose and carnation. There’s also patchouli and amber which would be down in the base notes. There’s only a hint of wood and musk. It’s unisex. Refreshing and cool as it opens with citrus. It’s lemons and oranges and sometimes very much like aftershave or Shalimar. The progression it makes is simple. It goes from citruses to florals and then to wood. I find it exotic, sweet and comfortable. It doesn’t become too balsamic or too herbal. It’s well balanced. The fragrance has won a lot of fans. It’s affordable and smells good.
It has great sillage and longevity. I was reminded of Emeraude by Coty as well. If you like Emeraude you’ll like this citrus-floral perfume. It’s something to wear to Church or Temple or Mosque. It’s got a religious air to it but in the sense that you wear this to a serious holiday type of event. A Muslim friend of mine wears this on holidays. She smells great. I thought it was a woman’s only perfume but then I smelled it on her brother LOL Gorgeous.
igogo1968 – :
This is an arabian oil that mimics western perfumes. Most of the oils contain oud, spices and roses, but nebras is the eastern version of our western perfumes and i think they did a wonderful job! I ended up liking nebras more than some of my western scents and i grab for this alot. It does resemble Vivian Westwood Boudoir but only the bubblegum opening , they both smell pink, powdery and bubblegumy but nebras is missing the skank or the dirty notes that is in boudoir. I think it’s beautiful. Nebras is strong and long lasting, the sillage is enormous and i can smell this on my scarf or jackets for weeks! Great pink,powder,bubblegum,cheeky, scent!
Miroslava405 – :
oh no, not for me. There is some note that really is off putting to me. I immediately gave it away to my daughter in law. I tried to warn her to put a very small amount on and she ended up having to wash some off but she could still smell it.
Just not my smell –
imfuntik – :
Extremely synthetic. I’m more than a little bit confused from reading about exotic Arabian attars, then receiving this, which is not an attar nor anything close. No extraction or distillation of plants involved in the creation of this!
I’m not even convinced that the fragrance chemicals are in an oil base. I think it might be a glycol or petroleum-derived material.
All of my Al Rehabs give a similar impression of being fully synthetic. Not in the least bit pleasant.
FriendTrevor – :
This opens with a sweet and juicy citrus with flowers just peeking through. As it wears on, it becomes a softer five-petaled pink rose, a little powdery. There is a warmth that emerges, cozy and vanillic, rounding out the sharper lemon.
Nebras is quite tame for an Arabian oil…it’s almost Western in its fresh levity.

The Spray version. Fluffy and seductive, very spicy not as strong as I thought. It has that aura of sensual intimacy, pink lace underwear and …leather? I know it is not in the notes but I perceive some naughty leather here…wow! It can be cloying if oversprayed but this is a very sexy perfume.

Have worn this today, for the first time. I was expecting a great wall of floral-ness to come at me, but no, just a well-behaved soft rose to start, then gradually gaining some lovely soft white florals along the way. I have applied it twice already, as I don’t find it knocks people over at all – so far DH hasn’t even commented on it, but he has got a stinker of a cold. I can tell I’m wearing it, but I don’t think I’m benefiting great swathes of humanity with it – not altogether a bad thing! It’s a pleasant, soft floral that could be worn anywhere, without anyone taking offence, but I feel sure that anyone coming into your close circle would be aware that you smelled lovely.
Definitely a keeper.
Update: Wore it last Sunday, and I got complimented by Hubs and also another woman, so very pleased it’s actually noticeable on me, as I love this little fragrance, it’s so pretty.
Have had a year of not wearing much perfume (DH having had an enormous op and still chesty from long anaesthesia). Just started playing about with some of my perfumes, and realise that I have to re-order Nebras, as there’s only a smear left in the bottle! Must have been my favourite, as there is plenty left of the others. Layered Nebras today, wit
