White Soul Ted Lapidus for women

I sampled White Soul this afternoon, it's a very powdery fragrance with an oriental twist. Actually, I find it strikingly similar to Tocade de Rochas, which is one of the best powdery fragrances out there, just became very hard to find.

It has top sillage and lasting power. Must have for powdery fragrances lovers or for those looking for an alternative to Tocade, not to mention that the price is quite cheap for the quality.

I got this perfume for a present recommended for the good comments in this website, but the truth is I hate it, unbearable for me.
The worst so far of all

I got this as a gift from my sister -in-law! Stunning, nothing like anything I've ever owned and the compliments make me want to buy it bulk before it is modified...well done TL!

Heaven must smell like this. It opens so big and fast - like gigantic exotic petals of an unknown flower, almost overpowering. But the benzoin immediately smooths it out and then ripples it into a soft, balmy, scintillating touch of a summer's twilight breath on the skin. The sillage is excellent, and the balminess keeps the scent true and lasting. It doesn't "die off" as so many new fragrances do. Outstanding character.

And.. it is not a white perfume at all!! I think the bottle design of Lalique Le Parfum suits the perfume more than this bottle, but I must confess, that this bottle is very unique.

It is exactly Lalique Le Parfum. Very sweet oriental.

when i first saw the perfume i thought to mysefy what a f***. but when the sales lady sprayed it to me i couldn't stop thinking about it.it was sweet! the following week i bought it. fabulous!!!!!!

Ahhh... I just can't get this out of my head. Sniffed it a few days ago in a drugstore and sprayed on my inner wrist and on a paper strip. Still keeping that piece of paper under my pillow. The fragrance is still very present, silky, clean, almost masculine, but I like it that way. It makes me think of things like purity, naked skin, cuddles, true love, warm but not too hot sunshine with sligthly breezy air.
I need to buy it next spring - if I can wait 'till then.

Oriental floral??? Sorry, you must be joking!It's just plain fruity floral, and since I've got a 18 y.o. daughter, I've sniffed many of mass market fruity florals which have more character than this one! Apricot compote with the wrong nuance of marigold (remember Safari, Pour L'Amour de L'Inde, Guepard...marigold can be great!), no depth, just sugary, watery, sticky juice that makes me think I've fallen into a punch bowl. The worst fragrance I've tested in last 3 years - sorry, admirers, sorry, Ted Lapidus - I'm your fan, I love many of your creations, but this one made me write the nastiest review in my life:(
P.S. Thank you dear gesch - your decant saved me 40$ - I considered blind buying it /shudders/.

I tested this today and it's a very nice fragrance. Also it has it´s own unique scent. I would say it´s a smoky white floral with a sweetness behind it. Lovely bottle that feels like porcelain. I recommend this fragrance.

Thanks to NathalieZ I have a sample of this and it is wonderful . . . I cannot wait to order a bottle for myself.

This fragrance so reminds me of a perfume that my mom bought me when I graduate high school. It was very expensive and in beautiful metal container and had a french name and had no idea what it meant. I wish I could remember the name. Oh well this smells like it to me.

To me this is one of the most interesting parfumes I've experienced in the past several years. Ted Lapidus always surprises me. I sense vanilla, mint, oriental flowers, apricot. It smells like late summer, walking by fruit trees, a sunset, feeling happy, forget the troubles of the world, the scent of all the women I ever loved. It is like looking at photographs. Sounds, smells, feelings come alive from memory. Everything a parfume should be. I love it.

Oh WAUW NathalieZ!! I have to get me some of this perfume then, reading your review made me REALLY enthusiastic!!!
