Morphology

soul + kiss

The noun combines 'soul' (deep emotion) and 'kiss' (an affectionate act), so a B1 learner who knows both words would likely infer a passionate or emotionally intense kiss. However the specific detail that it is an open-mouthed, tongue-involving "French kiss" is not directly derivable from the constituents, so the precise sense is not fully predictable without exposure.

Etymology

Soul kiss comes from the image of two people kissing so closely that their souls seem to meet through the open mouth of the kiss. So, one popular idea says the deep touch of tongue makes the moment feel like a meeting of souls, and the phrase means 'an open-mouthed, passionate kiss'.
