Indeed I am also looking for the single recipe which will allow me to
have a defaut satisfying behavior.
So far I can say that the JPEG given by Nikon gives a satisfying result
(far from perfect but acceptable). With Darktable and the different
presets I have tried, I always have to modify something manually,
which is taking me too much time.

I have to emphasize again, that I am NOT especially trying to duplicate
Nikon JPEG. It's just that it gives an acceptable result and it serves
as a point of reference (especially for color tone) in order to achieve
at least a similar result with Darktable (because I always have a
blueish/greenish tint so far).

With the trick to use the .icm profile generated by ViewNX 2/Capture
NX-D, I agree that the result is a bit "flat" (but with almost correct
colors). I can of course modify it, but this modification cannot be
used on another pictures (same problem as you).

Can I offer to try to work on the same set of pictures ?
I already uploaded an example here (see last comment) :
https://redmine.darktable.org/issues/11053#note-11
Perhaps can you also upload somewhere the pictures which are difficult
to process by Darktable ?

This style gives me a rather incorrect result in the example I have
provided.
