Noa by Cacharel is a transparent fragrance that brings me a lot of peace and luminosity. A nice sweet musk with gourmand coffee nuances, featuring a fresh opening of freesia and peonies. It’s a true gem from Cacharel, very intimate and discreet, nothing intrusive. It’s a fragrance that walks beside you, not ahead of you, and doesn’t leave much of a trail. It’s for women who don’t like to stand out, yet it’s a scent you can’t forget. One of my favorites from Cacharel. The only thing I wish for is that it left more of a trail on the skin, but it does cling well to fabric. Overall, it’s amazing; I hope Noa never dies.
Romantic, feminine, sweet, and powdery. That’s how I define this scent. I analyzed the notes but couldn’t quite identify them well; maybe it’s a great combination. I detect white florals, a marked sweetness (not caramel, but floral, perhaps vanilla or tonka bean). I notice a strong powdery aroma. It’s a beautiful, warm, innocent, cozy, and embracing scent. It reminds me of other powdery fragrances like Emporio Armani for Her. It’s quite linear; it comes out this way and stays this way, with no significant changes as it dries down. It has low longevity, but I don’t mind since it’s an EDT; I just reapply and it’s good. It lasts about 4 to 5 hours on the skin before fading to skin scent. On clothes, it lasts a bit longer. I highly recommend it; I wear it on cold days. It’s a beautiful perfume and it’s very reasonably priced in my country.
Unique, feminine, timeless, and relaxing.
I didn’t like it. I bought it when I was young and had to give the bottle away. I don’t know what it is, but it had so much femininity it felt like a slap in the face, forcing everyone around me to smell it. It overwhelmed me, even though I liked strong scents (Coco Mademoiselle, Flower by Kenzo, Eau d’Issey). Now I’m looking for something fresher and more pleasant. I got a bad habit with it; it just wasn’t for me.
What more can I say about Noa that hasn’t already been said? It’s simply marvelous. I wore it 22 years ago for the most beautiful day of my life—my wedding. It dressed me exquisitely all day and night. I just ordered another bottle.
It’s my favorite. I’ve tried dozens of perfumes, and in the end, I always come back to Noa. It smells rich and soft, not overwhelming; instead, you want to smell more. It smells clean and fresh, like a gentle soap, with a hint of peach and incense. It’s a bit woody but not harsh, romantic, and elegant. I don’t notice the jasmine or vanilla, which I appreciate. It’s different from anything else; the supposed dupes don’t even compare. It’s timeless and wonderful. I hope they never discontinue it.
When I was fifteen, it just hit the market, and I got two samples at a mall and kept one. It was my companion at school parties and brings back great memories. Interestingly, when it touches the skin, there’s a slight boozy or old-perfume nuance that isn’t unpleasant. It’s part of Noa’s charm because then the metamorphosis happens, and it becomes a beautiful scent. I smell coffee in the base, but I notice it right away and it lingers almost until the end; it’s a woody, warm coffee that welcomes the other notes. The white musk is strong but doesn’t last long. There’s a very subtle sweetness from fruits. In the dry down, the flowers blend with the citrus for a bitter touch. I also notice an iris fused with green grass that gives a clean sensation. The base is very woody with a sweet nuance. The trail is good but lasts about four hours on the skin, which is my only complaint. It works for any age, season, or occasion because it’s not intrusive and has personality.
I recommend it 100% for when you’re changing sheets, showering after a hot day, wearing new pajamas, and applying Noa. It’s the best night, period.
I went in excited because I fell in love with the packaging, which looks like a mermaid’s tail. But when I tried it in the store, it felt like a very flat floral, almost like a body mist. Over time, on blotter paper, I noticed a lot of incense, and it smelled like a supermarket deodorant that tickles my nose or a men’s shaving cream.
For me, Noa by Cacharel is the queen of white florals and musk, even though others can cost up to 200 euros more. It’s a gorgeous, well-balanced blend of musk with fruity and powdery touches. It’s an absolute beast for the price and longevity, and it’s the inspiration behind many expensive niche fragrances. A solid 10 for Noa.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m used to sweet and powerful perfumes, but this was a great disappointment in terms of performance. It has a hetero, tender, and clean aroma like a neutral soap. The big issue is the sillage and longevity: I barely perceive it, very close to the skin, and the duration is minimal, less than half an hour. I have to reapply, something I hate. The good thing is I bought the 30 ml presentation and I’ll finish it, but I don’t think I’ll buy it again. If you like subtle perfumes, you’ll love it; if you’re like me, who prefer invasive aromas, it will be a disappointment.
I was drawn to its ‘clean’ scent, and after researching the notes, I was surprised by the amount. I bought it blind and… wow, what a beautiful aroma. Very subtle and light, talcum-like but without being annoying. An ethereal fragrance ideal for hot or rainy days. I really liked it, a Cacharel hit.
Subtle among the subtle… I remember the ‘futuristic’ ad for Noa and Noa Perle. It was presented as something revolutionary, different, with an extravagant touch for coming from the future. It was a time before the millennium change, with powerful and complex fragrances. The new millennium seemed to promise simplicity and clean lines, and since Noa came from the future, it couldn’t be any other way. For me, it was a fragrance I wanted to treasure for occasional enjoyment, something to test at home. I don’t know why I never got one; I liked it but it seemed excessively plain to me, sometimes I swore it only smelled like alcohol. I tried it again and yes, it is excessively subtle. I define it as a musk-laden lily with a very subtle plum touch. There are infinitely better fragrances, but it has no substitute if it’s discontinued. It’s not expensive, so for its price, you can’t ask for more. It would have been wonderful with more character. To those who say it has a huge sillage, perhaps they bathed in it or have a hyper-sensitivity to scents.
Linearity, simplicity, minimalism, cleanliness, beauty, and lots of powdery softness. White musk predominates in a sensual way, reminding me a lot of Jovan’s White Musk. They are very similar. What a beautiful perfume that still smells as if it were just created.
To me, it’s the perfume version of baby cologne.
A very soft scent that doesn’t stand out too much to my taste. I think it works well for days when you want to smell fresh.
With this fragrance, I understood what it means to smell clean, and I loved it. Although it’s been on the market for years and I never tried it, now I really like it. It smells fresh, clean, floral, and slightly talcum-like, super feminine. It’s one of the fragrances that has received the most compliments.
I found this back in the 90s and recently rediscovered it. It smells like luxury soap, perfect for spring or whenever you want to feel impeccable.
One day my mother brought this perfume home; she worked at a hotel and a guest left behind Noa by Cacharel. What an ethereal scent—that’s the definition. It’s a clean aroma thanks to the musk, but more than that: the coffee adds a woody, sweet touch without being cloying. It’s strange, I remember it well, and although it’s pricey and rarely on sale, it’s worth it. Despite the years and being an EDT, it’s a beautiful classic.
It’s been on the market for years, and I never approached it due to prejudice, being an EDT and by Cacharel. Recently I got one… what a beauty. One of the most beautiful musks I’ve ever heard, creamy without being cloying. Impeccable. A must-have for lovers of this type. Its longevity is worth noting, very good. I have to remind myself to be less skeptical. Enjoy.
This was my first olfactory love; I was 10 years old when I discovered it. I used to use a friend’s mom’s, and whenever I went to her house, I’d always go to the bathroom and bathe in it (by the way, I thought she wouldn’t notice… how innocent). It smells clean, musky, talcum-powdered, and sweet all at once. It’s a very comforting scent that makes you feel comfortable. I love it, and I probably will buy it. The idea of revisiting it after so many years without smelling it excites me.
If you like white musk and peonies, this is for you. This musk isn’t animalic; it’s clean, soft, and delicate, blended with peonies. It’s an innocent, harmless perfume made for women. It’s perfect for the office or a dinner because it doesn’t overpower. It’s quite friendly. If you’re looking for something soft, delicate, feminine, and transparent, this could be your option. Unfortunately, the longevity isn’t the best, so I recommend wearing it on clothes rather than skin. It’s definitely a ‘no-makeup’ makeup perfume because if you wear it, it can almost go unnoticed.
The essence is reflected in the pure, simple, transparent, and white bottle, with that pearl that gives it a chic touch. That is Noa without complications or gourmand scents. I love it because I feel clean and relaxed with it. I don’t sense the coffee note at all, how great!
I bought it blind and didn’t like it… it’s not a scent I dislike (but I wouldn’t wear it to go out). I thought it would be more in the style of Light Blue or Pure Musk. I’m in a hype phase for clean and fresh scents, and if it smells clean, like after showering with deodorant, it just smells like floral deodorant, ‘obao’ style.
Smells like baby cologne, kind of like Simonds Blue. It’s rich, smells clean, but still like baby.
First flowers, then amber. I used to wear it years ago. It’s wonderful, fresh, intense, and has good projection. It’s not heavy, quite light, but it stays on my skin.
At first, it smells very clearly like baby cologne. As it dries down, it seems to disappear, staying right up against the skin. It’s not complex, but its simplicity is charming; the more I smell it, the more I feel it’s soapy, clean, and pleasant. It’s an instant classic if you’re looking for a clean scent.
Smells like cotton, rich and fresh, floral, and non-intrusive. It projects a lot even though it’s an eau de toilette and lasts on the skin. I wear it at night after showering, but it’s also perfect for going shopping or walking in the countryside. It’s a simple and very good perfume. Cacharel never fails for me.
Noa is my most recent purchase, bought blind based on the notes and reviews, and I absolutely love it. It’s floral, very clean, and cozy, like a fancy soap bar. It doesn’t bother anyone and keeps that freshly showered feeling. The incense adds sophistication without being bitter. It lasts well on me and is ideal for any season. The bottle is gorgeous with its little pearl inside. Without a doubt, I’ll be buying it again.
Smells super clean, soft, and delicate—like a baby perfume that gives off a lot of warmth. The only downside is it doesn’t have much projection. I bought it blind and now it’s one of my favorites.
I used this fragrance in the late 90s when it launched and it wasn’t anything special to me. We’ve met again and, oh, I find it delicious, tender, soft, very pretty, and I think I’ll buy a bottle sometime. Something to keep in mind: if you like soft florals.
Oh, what a beautiful perfume! I bought it recently and I’m in love with its scent. Every time a breeze touches my body, I feel like I leave a trail of fluttering white flower petals in my wake. Since I opened the box to try it, I fell in love. It was a blind buy; I felt it could suit me because of the white musk note and I wasn’t wrong. It’s a tender scent with a fresh, smiling sweetness, with a very cheerful spark; not the joy of an adolescent girl, but a very feminine one, of hugging your mom, of greeting with the smile of your friends, or the glow of feeling good on your best days. I think any woman can wear it, from a teenager to an adult in their 40s or 50s. On the opening, I notice a lot of white musk and peach, and I even found a certain resemblance to Burberry Women, which shares notes of peach, musk, sandalwood, vanilla, and incense, though at different times. Burberry is more autumnal and woody, while Noa is sweet but fresh, more summery and spring-like. Its white musk and peach note is precious, sweet, and attractive. The drydown evolves very nicely; its green notes hardly stand out (which isn’t a problem for me). In the final phase, the incense, tonka bean, and sandalwood really shine, a combination that fascinates me. I’m not too sure if I perceive the coffee note; maybe I need to train my nose more. Its longevity on skin is very good, about 6-7 hours, and on clothes it lasts several days. I’ve worn it this month with strong heat and rainy days; in both climates it has good longevity, but with cool and rainy weather it has more presence. I highly recommend it. It’s part of my pampered perfumes and must-haves in my collection.
I’ve spent about 3 or 4 bottles and just bought it again. It’s an all-rounder scent, smells clean just like that, like body cream or soap. It’s the equivalent of a white chiffon dress made into perfume. I love wearing it in any season, when I want to smell freshly showered and not like a cupcake (almost my entire collection is gourmands). A classic but timeless scent.
When I tested it I thought: it’s a princess perfume. Extremely feminine. Upon spraying, you feel a twinge of something artificial and plastic, like fluorescent hospital lights with a blinding white. I like this bold, fresh opening, but in a sense that isn’t usually explored. It’s a cold perfume, without warmth, and it doesn’t need it. I notice a lot of lily of the valley with a bouquet of white flowers over a soft cloud of musk. The duality of the cold plastic opening with the base of soft cushion musk makes an interesting combination. Rainy days bring out the best of this facet. I don’t think it smells like cream or soap; it lacks a creamy and astringent character; it’s more like freshly hung laundry.
It smells like a very soft, clean body cream. It’s very soft and its longevity is short, but it’s a beautiful scent.
I was curious to try it since, on the website, according to the fragrances I like (including Amor Amor), it came up in the recommendations and wow! The recommendation was spot on. It’s subtle and soft as I like it, nothing cloying, and as it dries down, it stays richly impregnated. I’m not sure yet if the trail is big, but regarding longevity, I perceived it all day. I picked it up as a sample from Fräiche and loved it; I will definitely buy the original.
I bought it blind because I love fresh, soft perfumes with a clean scent. The reviews seemed wonderful and I wanted to smell it for a long time. Unfortunately, it wasn’t to my liking. It’s true that it smells very soft, like talc, but there’s something in the aroma that I dislike and even bother me to the point of feeling nauseous. I still can’t figure out which note it is, maybe incense or coffee, but I feel it’s so predominant that I can’t stand it. The bottle is gorgeous and gives that feeling of something light and clean. I’m still searching for a clean-scented perfume that drives me crazy.
I can’t help but love it. It immediately reminds me of my mother, who always wears it on special occasions. So I’ll always associate it with her, something soft, safe, and maternal. It’s fresh, clean, delicate, and as feminine as it gets. I’d even say it’s timidly sensual. It’s the fragrance of an elegant, sweet, and even slightly mystical woman. It seems like a perfume that can’t fail you; it’s very versatile and compliments are guaranteed. It stands out much more on cold days, like a rainy day or a cool summer night, but it won’t feel out of place in spring or fall. It has a very lovely powdery scent and feels just as cozy as lying in clean sheets after a good bath. Simply put, it’s a beautiful perfume and I can’t wait to buy another bottle.
I stumbled upon Noa online at a price we couldn’t have imagined 30 years ago, so I didn’t hesitate to order it. Does it smell like soap? Yes, but like a balanced floral bar soap, featuring lily, lily of the valley, jasmine, and musk—sweet but not cloying, romantic. It reminded me of Reve de Van Cleef and YSL Paris, that ballerina, fairy, society lady vibe. It’s truly lovely, classic, and clean. I was a kid when it launched and I remember the advertising perfectly; it’s tattooed in my mind: the perfume with the pearl inside. I wanted it without knowing what it smelled like; it was beautiful, a bit hypnotizing. I also remember Beyond Paradise at the same time; you don’t know what a letdown it was when Estée brought it back but not in the original bottle. Anyway, Noa today, after so many years, represents a beautiful memory. I don’t know what else you could ask for: it’s a room spray with a price that’s beyond friendly. The trail is moderate, not loud, but you can carry it further if you apply generously. The longevity is great on skin, very present for 5-6 hours, and on clothes it lasted all day. I have nothing more to ask for; it owes me nothing.
It smells like that hotel soap that smells like Cacharel, and honestly, it doesn’t do justice to such a gorgeous bottle. I absolutely don’t like it, even though I love clean fragrances.
