If I had been to ask what your favourite Sol de Janeiro Fragrance Mist is, what scent would you select? It is a daunting process: All eight fragrances reside as much as their title, “cheirosa,” a Portuguese phrase that refers to somebody who smells actually good. Chances are high you’re accustomed to Cheirosa 62: It is the Allure Reader’s Choice Award-winning one within the gentle orange bottle. With it is candy notes of pistachio, vanilla, and caramel, Cheirosa 62 is the model’s signature scent; it additionally is available in an array of different physique merchandise like body oil, lotion, shower gel, and deodorant.
Like a lot of you, I’ve slathered, sprayed, and pumped out Cheirosa 62, which was impressed by the yr 1962 when Rio’s well-known seaside at Ipanema gained worldwide notoriety due to the track The Woman From Ipanema (the numbers on all of the fragrances check with a notable yr in Brazilian historical past from which Sol de Janeiro attracts inspiration for every scent). This scent, which captures the nice and cozy Brazilian sunshine, will at all times be essential for me, however after discovering the seven further scents Sol de Janeiro has formulated, I am happy to report I even have just a few favorites within the bunch. Beneath, I’ve shared my prime three picks from the model’s lineup of long-lasting, affordable, and layer-worthy perfume mists hold reaching for.

After Cheirosa 62, this scent was my first introduction to the Sol de Janeiro Fragrance Mists. The sheer child pink bottle racked up some critical road credit score on social media after clients began evaluating this $38 bottle to Maison Francis Kurkdjian Paris Baccarat Rouge 540, which retails for a whopping $335. Each are floral fragrances that function jasmine (which I am a sucker for) as the first prime be aware. Cheirosa 68’s inclusion of dragonfruit packs a little bit of a sweeter punch than Baccarat Rouge 540’s saffron and cedarwood additions. I attain for this pink bottle after I’m working out the door for an errand or espresso with a girlfriend.
