The Essence Vault Soleil Blanc - 972 is an Eau de Parfum. Soleil Blanc - 972 opens with Cardamom and Coconut, settles into a heart of Tuberose and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk and Amber. The Essence Vault's Soleil Blanc - 972 carries an Acquired verdict, a coconut-led wear.

No. 972 leans hard into Tom Ford Soleil Blanc's coconut-tuberose sun-drenched signature but plays it flatter and louder, with a sweeter, more synthetic opening and a shorter, less layered dry-down than the original's creamy amber depth.

About

No. 972 is The Essence Vault's take on the solar, beachy indulgence made famous by Tom Ford's Soleil Blanc. It opens with a bright, almost candy-sweet coconut milk accord dusted with cardamom, before sliding into a heart of ylang-ylang and tuberose that leans a touch more one-dimensional than the silky original. The base settles into warm amber and soft musk, evoking sun cream and holiday skin rather than the original's more resinous, textured warmth. Projection is loud for the first hour or two, then fades faster than Soleil Blanc's legendary longevity. It works best as a cheerful summer holiday scent rather than an all-season signature, and at this price point it captures the mood convincingly even if the craftsmanship is simpler.
