Tom Ford Soleil Brûlant is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Daniela Andrier. Soleil Brûlant opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Honey, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Resins, Leather, and Amber. Tom Ford's Soleil Brûlant carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Tom Ford Soleil Brûlant is a divisive one, a gourmand amber with an intense, almost challenging character. Some call it a masterpiece, others a scrubber. Sample first, because if you get the dreaded 'celery' note, you won't be impressed.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer Fall
Also Works:
Spring Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This scent is strong and long-lasting, with significant projection, making it too overpowering for an office. Its rich, sensual character is perfectly suited for date nights and formal occasions, but its intensity could be too much for casual wear or sport.

About

It opens with a fiery rush of citrus and pink pepper, quickly giving way to a rich, honeyed orange blossom heart. The dry down is a deep, resinous affair of warm amber, smoky frankincense, smooth leather, and grounding vetiver, evoking the scent of sun-baked, expensive skin with an underlying burnt sweetness.
