The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2006, Noa Perle by Cacharel is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women created by perfumers Domitille Michalon Bertier and Olivier Polge. This composition opens with the zesty freshness of kumquat and pink pepper before settling into a heart of peony, African orange flower, and freesia. The base notes feature hazelnut, adding a nutty and sweet warmth to the overall bouquet. Noa Perle captures the essence of youthful femininity that Cacharel is known for, blending bright citrus and aromatic florals with subtle woody undertones.
Noa Perle has a bright opening that fades within an hour, so for longer-lasting warmth, apply it to pulse points like wrists and neck. The hazelnut base note develops over time, making this fragrance better suited for daytime wear.
