Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Soleil Blanc Parfum
Tom Ford’s Soleil Blanc Parfum is less a new creation and more a richer, creamier take on the original EDP. If you love the first one, you'll love this; otherwise, it's not going to win you over. It's a crowd-pleaser for existing fans, but don't expect innovation.
Statement
Our Verdict - Soleil Blanc EDP
SMEL.' Soleil Blanc follows Tom Ford's coconut-white floral-amber sun-drenched formula closely, but comes across sweeter and less creamy-textured than the original's rich, layered oil-like finish.
