Most opinions I have seen about this perfume mist have been very positive but I have also seen the flip of the coin and heard it doesn't last long.
Read on to see my thoughts on last year's hit perfume mist. ( Spoiler alert - It's Lush)
Pros
- It has a matching body moisturiser which elevates the scent
- Beautiful salted caramel/pistachio smell - like salted caramel and vanilla, beach-inspired
- Perfect for layering other perfumes
Cons
- Fragrance doesn't last long
- Expensive for a body mist
FRAGRANCE NOTES
TOP: pistachio, almond
MID: heliotrope, jasmine petals
DRY: vanilla, salted caramel, sandalwood

Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 name comes from the Brazilian word which means smell delicious from sunrise to sundown. For me, you instantly smell the salted caramel notes, Vanilla and the floral aspect of the spray which is yummy!
Performance
As soon as I applied this perfume mist I thought wow this is a powerful mist, I was instantly hit with the floral, vanilla and salted notes which I love! Unfortunately, that was short-lived for me on its own, the scent on my skin only lasted 2 hours at a push which is a little disappointing.
Even though the scent doesn't last long on its own it works well combined with its sister product the Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream which increases its lasting powders for a good 6 hours. If layered it's longer.
When to Wear Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62
I personally wouldn't wear it as an everyday perfume as for me it's more like a summer or beach holiday perfume.
But remember perfumes are subjective to everyone and if you're after summer vibes, then this is for you.
How much is it?
I was shocked when I purchased this because I didn't see the price before buying this when I got to the till I saw the cost was £38! I feel like thats rather expensive for a mist and an actual perfume. The smaller version of this comes in at £24.
Layering options
As a perfume addict, I enjoy layering perfumes and I have tried a few with this perfume that work very nicely together ( anything with floral or vanilla will be amazing) here's some below.
- Sol de Janeiro 62 with Lataffa Yara
- Sol de Janeiro 62 with Al-Rehab Choco Musk
- Sol de Janeiro with An.Nur Desert Rose
Final Thoughts
I like Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa Perfume Mist but I will be honest it's not something I would grab for very often as I said above, it's more summer or beach holiday vibes. If I wear Lataffa Yara then I will spritz this on for layering but not something on its own. I love the salted caramel and vanilla notes and all this has made me realise is that I need a holiday and soon!
As for the price point, I don't know if it's a perfume mist I will repurchase
Thanks so much for reading my thoughts on Sol de Janeiro Ceirosa 62 perfume mist! Look out for more perfume reviews coming up!
Until next time

My daughter and I thought the scent was just okay. Nothing to go too crazy for, so we didn't understand all the hype these get. She says she prefers her Billie Eilish perfumes.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has this scent and enjoys it. Not her favorite of the Sol scents, but it is nice to have a variety to choose from.
ReplyDeleteI thought I had too many perfumes…until I saw this post. I must get this right this second!! I feel like I’m going to be loving this.
ReplyDeleteEhh, that's not for me. I feel like it doesn't matter how good it smells if it disappears so quickly. Graet review!
ReplyDeleteThe Bum Bum cream sounds nice. I need to check it out.
ReplyDeleteThis review was super helpful! After reading your post, I'm not sure I'd want to invest the money in perfume that doesn't last very long.
ReplyDeleteAll my friends love it. It's very pleasant to me but not worth the price or hassle of the smell going away quickly. Great idea to review it and give info!
ReplyDeleteThe Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 sounds like a great fragrance. It’s nice to see a review that gives an honest breakdown of the scent and wear.
ReplyDeleteI have used their other products before and they were great. I would like to try this one too, I'm sure it smells lovely.
ReplyDeleteIt helps to research products before buying. I don't blame you deciding not to repurchase. Doesn't seem worth it.
ReplyDeleteI love the Sol de Janeiro product line! The bum cream is amazing for full body moisturizing and smells divine, so I'd love to give this perfume a try, too.
ReplyDeleteI too purchased not this one.... but another body mist/perfume from TikTok and it is OK.... but not as great as I was led to believe. For a body mist it's great but honestly I thought it was a perfume and for a body mist I felt mine was a bit pricey too. Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your review of Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 perfume. I’m looking for a new perfume and can’t wait to check it out!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this scent before, but I do love beachy, summery smells so it seems like something I may like.
ReplyDeleteThis must be a very popular scent because this is what my daughter asked me to get her for Christmas. She love the Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa perfume mist!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a shame that the scent doesn't last long, especially as it sounds so interesting! Thanks for sharing your review.
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of this scent before, the fragrance is something I do love but as you have said more a summer day time scent. I am not sure of the price though and know there are others fragrances that do last and are a little cheaper.
ReplyDeleteI love the floral sent a lot...I would love to try this one, it seems amazing...Thanks a lot for the review, it helps a lot.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love 62 from sol de janiero, I use it as a body spray as opposed to perfume. And yes it is quite pricey for that but I love it. I am intrigued to try some of the dupes I've seen around though and see how they compare x
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has a few of these and loves them.. i don;t know if she has this specific one though..
ReplyDeleteWhen I read the fragrance notes, I immediately wanted this perfume! My birthday is coming, and I'll ask my husband to buy Love 62 from Sol de Janiero. Thank you for this review!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite scents to use year round. I use it so often that I have unintentionally got friends and family to buy it as well. Sol De Janiero had great products!
ReplyDeleteI like their Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream. Not sure if I'd get their body spray since it doesn't last long and due to the price point. Thanks for your review!
ReplyDeleteSol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 sounds very unique, I might get this as I often like summer themed scents which I use in the day

ReplyDeleteI love perfumes, too but I have never tried layering perfumes. I didn't even know it's a thing. Thanks for the idea! -Lynndee
ReplyDeleteI've heard so many great things about this brand. I think I will have to try it out
