Has anyone tried Lumineux toothpaste?

It's a "teeth whitening" toothpaste.  It's a little more pricey than my usual Colgate optic white.  If you've tried it, does it help whiten?  And how's the taste, similar to a typical minty toothpaste?  TIA

Toothpastes don't whiten enamel. They just remove surface stains with abrasive ingredients and for Lumineux that abrasive is silica. To whiten enamel you need to use something that is left on the teeth for a certain length of time so that it can get into the enamel and remove stains...strips or gels.
