Rituals Soleil d'Or is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Soleil d'Or opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Pear, settles into a heart of Freesia and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Musk and Cedar. Rituals's Soleil d'Or carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some rave about its unique freshness, while others are left wanting more in terms of longevity. It's a clean, uplifting scent that captures summer's essence, but be prepared for a skin scent that fades too quickly for some.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Soleil d'Or opens with a bright, zesty burst of mandarin and bergamot, softened by the delicate sweetness of pear. This sparkling start quickly ushers in a heart of aquatic lotus and airy freesia, evoking a serene lily pond. The dry down settles into a subtle whisper of clean musk and grounding cedar, leaving a 'your skin but better' freshness.
