Launched by Cacharel in 1998, Noa is an eau de toilette by Olivier Cresp for a heroine who speaks of wisdom and hope. The house describes it as a bed of white musks at the center of which a white peony blooms, with Bulgarian rose and benzoin, and all around notes of coffee and incense. Its bottle, a glass sphere, holds a pearl.
A transparent glass sphere, like a small planet, at the center of which an iridescent pearl seems to float.
The house describes a transparent glass bottle shaped like a sphere, like a planet, at the center of which an iridescent pearl glows: the idea of an eternal cycle of life. It sees in it the symbol of the perfection every woman carries within her.
The pearl seems to float in the juice. The message that accompanied the fragrance invited women to go and find the pearl within themselves. The later variations, from Noa Fleur to Noa Perle, take up this smooth, round bottle.
According to the encyclopedia Perfume Intelligence, this futuristic, tactile sphere is the work of Annegret Beier, who had designed the Loulou and Eden bottles for Cacharel. The fragrance was presented in an ivory-colored box.
