Soleil Rouge opens with dark cherry, deep and a little daring. Jasmine sambac softens through the heart, full and warm, before orris settles underneath: powdery, refined, and lingering close to the skin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The scent profile is the same - the same fragrance character, the same notes - but the intensity is intentionally lighter.
A body wash is a rinse-off product, so the scent settles on skin as a subtle, clean trail rather than a full fragrance statement. Think of it as the foundation layer, not the headline.
For the full effect, it works best layered alongside the matching Eau de Parfum.
Yes, and this is one of the main reasons to pair them.
Applying a matching scented wash before your Eau De Parfum creates a base that gives the fragrance something to anchor to, which generally improves longevity and keeps the scent coherent throughout the day.
It's a simple step that makes a noticeable difference - particularly if you find your Eau De Parfum tends to fade faster than you'd like.
The formula is a silky gel enriched with aloe vera and niacinamide. The aloe vera helps maintain moisture balance during cleansing, so skin doesn't feel stripped or tight afterwards.
Niacinamide adds a brightening quality over time. It's designed for everyday use and is suitable for most skin types. As with all our products, it's 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
Most scented body washes use synthetic fragrance as an afterthought - often a faint, generic version of a scent added in small quantities to a commodity formula.
Ours is formulated around the same high-quality fragrance oils used in the matching Eau de Parfum, which is why the scent profile is coherent and recognisable rather than approximate.
The base formula - aloe vera, niacinamide - is also meaningfully better than what you'd typically find at a comparable price point in a supermarket.
Absolutely. The body wash works perfectly well on its own - it cleanses effectively and leaves a subtle, pleasant scent on the skin.
You don't need the Eau De Parfum to get value from it. That said, if you're looking for a more considered, longer-lasting fragrance experience, layering both together is the natural next step.
That depends on how much you use per shower, but at a generous application, most customers find a 450ml bottle lasts between 6 and 8 weeks of daily use.
Lighter users often get closer to 10–12 weeks from a single bottle.
Yes. Every Thomson Carter Body Wash is formulated using 100% vegan, cruelty-free ingredients.
No animal-derived ingredients, no animal testing - at any stage.

I first heard about Lilium Blume, and tried the discovery kit. I fell in love! Since then, I became obsessed with Are You Vanilla. Time after time, I would get compliments of how lovely my parfums smell.
I could not wait to try the new Soleil Rouge. I adore it so much! Light and fresh, yet cozy and warm. A gentle hug in every spritz.
Happy with the product, however it was a gift for my partner, and didn't receive the body wash with the 100ml perfume , and kinda killed the moment. Lovely stuff, was fancying the Mr Carter for myself, any deals in compensation? Regards Lee
Absolutely wonderful im obsessed with this fragrance, such attention to detail with packaging. I have always been looking for my signature scent and I have found it ☺️
Huge fan of Thompson Carter perfumes . My son asked for Smoke and mirrors for his birthday. Since then I have placed 3 more orders. The last being Soleil Rouge with free body wash. Can't complain about any of their fragrances or packaging and deliver times, but can anyone tell me what the little pillow could be used for? Maybe spray it and use as a room smelly thingy. Big bold company that gives customer service 100%. huge pats on back thank you
