Any non-polar solvent will work. Depending on whether it is heavier or lighter than water will tell you whether it will be above or below the Aquias layer of your solution when combined. You want to make sure you are extracting the right layer!

Sorry, I meant to say, "ANY non-polar solvent that doesn't mix well with water will work. I'm not sure what you mean by white spirit, do you mean like "white gas" or Coleman camp fuel, then the answer is yes. Not the best solvent as you want to try to pick one which leaves the least residue, but it will definitely work.
