    What do reviewers say about Sun and Noa?

    Powder and vanilla worn close to the skin, the talcum warmth of someone who spent the afternoon in light. Not every fragrance needs to announce itself.Sun
    Some fragrances announce themselves. Noa doesn't need to. The coffee note gives it warmth where others go linear, and that powdery finish keeps drawing you back. Weightless, yes.Noa
