Inspired by the delicate beauty of the Soap Bubble Nebula, known for its spherical, iridescent appearance, Soap Bubble is an airy yet present scent that blends purity with playfulness. Sparkling aldehydes meet creamy, peachy and musky notes, creating a modern interpretation of freshness. A fragrance for those who don’t need to shout to be heard.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the scent of close conversation and controlled presence: polished, luminous and never loud. It suits a wearer who prefers to be noticed for clarity and texture rather than volume, leaving a soft, clean trail that feels intimate and composed.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, where its airy floral-musky structure can breathe without flattening. Apply lightly to pulse points or clothing for a smooth, skin-close effect; in higher heat it stays clean and diffusive, while in cooler air it reads creamier and more cocooning.
Who it’s for
For people who like modern minimalism with character: clean scents, soft musks, iris, airy florals and a polished, slightly creamy finish. It will appeal to those who want freshness with texture rather than sharpness or obvious sweetness.

The nose
Andreas Wilhelm is a Swiss perfumer known for work that often leans conceptual, textural and quietly avant-garde. His style suits fragrances that feel more like atmosphere than ornament, and Soap Bubble follows that idea with a clean, airy composition that still has body and presence.
Collaborators
Moritz Sülz, Ylem’s founder and creative force, shaped the brand’s nebula concept and the science-meets-mysticism brief that guided the launch trio. Andreas Wilhelm translated that vision into scent, turning the Soap Bubble Nebula into a polished, skin-close floral extrait.
Ylem’s story
Ylem is an avant-garde house built around cosmic imagery and the idea of translating nebulae into perfume. Its identity blends astronomy, art and a minimalist sensibility, favoring conceptual compositions that feel modern, precise and slightly otherworldly.
Soap Bubble’s concept
Soap Bubble was created as part of Ylem’s debut nebula-inspired trio, with the Soap Bubble Nebula as its point of departure. The fragrance takes the nebula’s fragile, iridescent form and turns it into an airy floral skin scent: transparent at first glance, but with a clear, lingering presence.
Extra info
Soap Bubble is named after the Soap Bubble Nebula, whose spherical, iridescent appearance inspired the fragrance. It is an extrait de parfum and part of Ylem’s debut trio, alongside other nebula-themed compositions.
