Sun is a sunny and a happy fragrance. The openning is airy and bright. The note of citrusy jasmine is the most prominent, but this phase lasts only for a few minutes. Later it gets sweeter, more flowers kick in and the powdery musk adds to the composition. On my skin there is a noticable lilac note. The base is a sweet musky and citrusy jasmine-lilac combo. Comforting, cheerful and elegant at the same time.
Yes, Sun is similar to Guerlain L’Instant. I find L’Instant to be colder fragrance.
Like all Ramon Molvizar creations this one is very well blended and rounded. There are little gold particles in a bottle, so be aware when you spray it on darker clothes.

Like this at first very feminine then it goes unisex at the dry down. At first spray citrus, although not you typical all just citrus it’s already mixed with the flowers this is the feminine stage and this lingers for a bit, then the dry down musc; slight wood; flowers just in the background and sugar. This stage goes sweet musky slight wood and is unisex imo. Very nice. Performance is average 4-6 hours maybe more depending on spray and projection is medium overall a like for me. I can wear this and im a man.

My experience is as Descartes review before mine, I cannot add to that 😉
This opens with an aquatic and fresh citrus both of which I love in a scent. They blend smoothly into a juicy orchid, sweet rose and soft jasmine. The drydown is very creamy woods and jasmine, yielding an incredibly sensual yet soft appeal highlighted gently by sugar cane. Really loving this one.

It seems that this perfume’s gimmick and only claim to uniqueness is the inclusion of gold flecks of something, which are present even in my sample vial. The perfume itself is a fairly standard floral. I don’t get much citrus in the beginning, since it launches straight into a musky lily fragrance that reminds me of the fragrance used in Nivea cream and lotion. After a while it does develop a green note that’s not in Nivea, but it’s still pretty close.
In the drydown, the musk becomes more prominent, and eventually what’s left is a nice oriental-type amber. Sol is moderate in strength and sillage, even during the early floral phase.
Given the advertising photo shown here and the hype about “real gold flecks”, I would think that a bottle containing that much gold (at least 10% by volume?) would sell for more than the going rate for this perfume. If it were indeed real, then it might be worthwhile to buy a bottle, go panning for the gold, and sell it. If it’s gold glitter (which is what my vial contents look like), then it’s just tacky. Come to think of it, either way it’s tacky. Solid particles have no place in a perfume, if for no other reason because one would think that they might eventually clog the spray mechanism.

Ramon Molvizar SOL/SUN edp bears an unmistakeable resemblance to Guerlain L’INSTANT edp. Both are sweet, powdery florientals, and I find both of them appealing. Although the precise floral and oriental notes are slightly different in the two compositions, the end product is very similar.
I find SOL/SUN slightly more sweet and less powdery than L’INSTANT, but they are clearly close siblings. A unique feature of SOL/SUN is that suspended in the perfume are flakes of gold! I doubt that they contribute anything to the olfactory experience, but they do add a visible touch of luxury to what is a sumptuous scent. Although benzoin is not listed among the notes, there is definitely a rich benzoin/resin quality to this creation, which I recommend for wintertime wear to those who appreciate florientals such as L’INSTANT.
