Soma is good!
A gourmand boozy perfume fortunately at an enviable level in terms of smell, projection and durability. Bought on blindbuy as a spicy gourmand for cold days! An excellent perfume in the style of PDM Oajan, so it is a very wearable and pleasant perfume for autumn/winter.
It opens with a strong hit of tonka and heliotrope. After the opening there are sweet, pleasant vanilla mixed with cocoa and caramel. The base of this perfume is rum with labdanum and deerskin, which gives it the vibe of a drunken PDM Oajan.

Thumbs up for Soma, a very good perfume, maybe even a mix of Oajan and Angles' Share.

Soma, a fragrance that reminds me of the love of Sora Dora Mandorle
Soma by Noème definitely has parallels to Sora Dora Mandorle for me. I find this absolutely not negative, as I love the Mandorle. Moreover, the two fragrances differ in certain aspects, and both make it beautifully in their own way for me.

Soma starts for me, like the Mandorle, directly with this leathery, sweet note.
The fragrance has this beautiful leather undertone, but never too strong, as the sweet accents completely capture the leather. It fits super well and harmonizes excellently!
I find the leather in Sora Dore to be a tad stronger than here in Soma by Noème.
The sweet impressions come from a wonderful tonka bean absolute note, a bit of vanilla, and cocoa. I also think you can already sense that resinous sweetness from labdanum.

In comparison to the Mandorle, I can also say that I always perceived a slight cherry note at the beginning of the Mandorle, as well as a marzipan-like impression. I do not get these two impressions in Soma.

Over time and also towards the end, it becomes a bit less "spicy." At the beginning, I always had the impression that there was a certain wintry spice present.
Additionally, a sweeter rum touch comes through more and more.
Rum, tonka bean, labdanum, leather, and a bit of cocoa at a friendly gathering where there are no disputes. Everyone gets along wonderfully.

The fragrance is wonderfully unisex and has good longevity and sillage on my skin.

Beautiful Scent for Winter
In my opinion, this scent deserves much more attention! It is wonderful for the cold season!

It is beautifully warm and cozy. A warm vanilla with caramel and light spices. I know the spices are not listed, but to me, it still smells slightly spicy.
Slightly sweet, but not too sweet, as it is balanced by the leather and labdanum. I simply really like this fragrance.
I smelled this scent and was immediately taken away.

For me, this fragrance bears no resemblance to Shaghaf Oud Tonka at all, because to me, the rose in Shaghaf Oud Tonka dominates and I don’t like that at all, as it smells outdated to me personally. I’m not exactly sure if it’s the rose, but I suspect it is.

But I love "Soma | Noème." It is a wonderful scent! Anyone who enjoys warm vanilla scents / tonka scents will love this one!

Interesting and pretty. Honeyed Amber resins, with licorice and brief hint of leather. Some saffron & fruit. Harkens BR540 a bit.

For me, this scent takes a step back, starting with a lot of sweetness that then (thankfully) fades. Marzipan-almondy heliotrope stands....

Journey to the Orient: Honey-sweet, milky resins, spiced with saffron + za'atar. Plus a few cherries. In the dry down, a cozy patch-amber bed.*

Smells like Christmas, great spices, marzipan, not too strong leather and rum.
I can imagine it wonderfully at a snowy Christmas market.

Intense scent: leather, rum, and vanilla.
Some may find it too sweet, but for me, it's balanced in the notes.
