Soleil Blanc
Soleil Blanc by Tom Ford is an unisex eau de parfum from 2016 in the luxury price tier. It opens with bergamot, cardamom and pistachio, moves into ylang-ylang, tuberose and coconut and dries down to amber, benzoin and musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Pistachio Green, salty and creamy. Nutty without being heavy.
Heart
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Coconut Creamy and tropical. Suncream in the best possible way.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
