«Soleil de Feu is a smoldering amber woody scent evoking sunset light. It is the most sensual expression of soleil.» – Tom Ford

Tom Ford launches Soleil De Feu as the latest addition to the Private Blend collection . It joins the family of sun-inspired fragrances, that includeSoleil Blanc (2016), Soleil Neige (2019), and Soleil Brûlant (2021).

Soleil de Feu is an amber woody scent that evokes the molten sun descending in a burnished blaze over the sea, painting the sky with fiery strokes of bronze solar light. This is the most sensual expression of the Soleil perfume. Notes of sandalwood are enhanced with tuberose and warm ambers, resulting in a seductive and sensual fragrance. Personally speaking this scent could have been crafted specifically for me. It has all some of my favorite notes with a beautiful oriental touch.

Available as Eu de Parfums 30ml, 50ml, and 250ml Decanter.

Right now I am enjoying the essence of summer to the fullest. Spending my days at the beach, drinking coconut cocktails and lathering milky sunscreen on my skin, I indulge – after a great time in Saint Tropez – in the Myconian sun. Opulent, golden sunrays warming my naked skin while I would like to show you some amazing products.

The Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2022 collection, inspired by SOLEIL BRÛLANT, is here and as always it is absolutely stunning. There are some well known products as some new additions you shouldn’t miss.

SOLEIL BLANC EAU DE PARFUM

My summer classic! Soleil Blanc, this addictive solar floral amber and coco de mer-infused scent, evokes remote, private islands where summer lasts all year and one day seamlessly blends into the next. Alive with seductive cardamom and refreshingly decant yang yang, Soleil Blanc unapologetically exudes the endless pursuit of sun and luxury.

SOLEIL BRÛLANT SHIMMERING BODY OIL

This silky scented oil adds a seductive gleam to the skin while tempting the senses with the scorching sensuality of SOLEIL BRÛLANT – the Private Blend fragrance mingling sunlit florals with warm amber. The luxurious, lightweight oil illuminates the skin with delicate flecks of golden-toned leaf, without leaving it greasy or sticky.

SOLEIL LIP BLUSH

This decadent, uniquely shade-shifting balm perfectly captures the gilded glow of the Soleil collection with exclusive gold-toned flecks and packaging. Swipe it on, and it transforms into a sultry pink stain unique to you. It reacts with your skin pH.

SOLEIL SHEER CHEEK DUO IN ÉCLAT NU

This new duo adds natural dimension and sensuous color that effortlessly glides onto skin with a soft, even finish. You can use the shades alone or together to built up depending on desired intensity.

The collection is in stores now.

This spring, I was invited to discover the new limited edition TOM FORD BEAUTY SOLEIL SUMMER 2021 collection, magnetizes with innovative new experiences of solar gold, through a virtual zoom meeting. Beforehand, I received a lovely package filled with lots of goodies from the American brand, such as the amazing Neughman pilot sunglasses that I put on immediately during the presentation.

«The warmth of amber and mix of florals render this fragrance original. SOLEIL BRÛLANT is addictive… the boldest version of Soleil.» – TOM FORD

First let me introduce you to the new SOLEIL BRÛLANT Eau de Parfum (available as in two sizes, 50ml flacon and 250ml.) An opulent, golden sun; a secluded island escape – SOLEIL BRÛLANT, the third expression in the Soleil franchise, releases sun kissed florals warmed by amber, conjuring a blazing encounter between gilded rays and bare skin.

The floral oriental scent is an invitation to an uninhibited summer, where high-shine solar brilliance mingles with the intense freshness of mandarin and bergamot. Spicy pink peppercorn gives way to an ornate and regal floral heart of jasmine sambac, tuberose and orange flower absolutes. As the sun and body embrace, the warmth of decadent amber intensified by resins, woods, and black honey nectar exudes a seductive vapor. Invigorating coffee Arabica and tonka bean awaken the extravagant smokiness of incense, vetiver, and leather.

The collection includes also two limited edition make-up products:

SOLEIL CREAM AND POWDER EYE COLOR – Black Sand
A two-tiered eye color, this duo creates deeply seductive eye look with an ultra-pigmented, black
cream base hue and a high-shine golden powder.

SOLEIL LIP GLOSS – Sunlust
This pearlescent gloss sweeps on golden, then shade-shifts into a soft shimmering rose-peach
glow with subtle shine.

Here are two other products of the SOLEIL collection that I personally love and you shouldn’t miss:

SOLEIL GLOW BRONZER – Gold Dust
This medium bronzer gives your skin a sun-kissed glow that’s genuinely healthy – it’s packed with nourishing ingredients. The lightweight formula is infused with finely milled shimmer that looks so natural.

SOLEIL BLANC SHIMMERING BODY OIL – Rose Gold
 Designed to give skin a sun-kissed glow all year round, this shimmering body oil is scented with amber, sandalwood and fresh floral notes to evoke the smell of summer.
