A generator of air/oil mist includes an accumulation chamber for a mist of particles of oil in air, and equipped with a first mist outlet and a nebulizer feeding into the accumulation chamber, the nebulizer including a first nozzle supplied with pressurised air, which features at least a first channel supplied with the pressurised air, each channel being equipped with an outlet on a surface of the first nozzle partially defining a first chamber axially symmetrical with respect to an axis, the channels being positioned to generate a rotation of the air fed into the first chamber around the said axis, the surface of the first nozzle featuring a section converging towards an outlet hole, the nebulizer featuring a second nozzle supplied with oil and feeding out into the first chamber so that the oil is suctioned via the second nozzle because of the air flowing through the first chamber.
