Sol de Janeiro Hair & Body Perfume Mist

Love it!! It smells so good! I get so many compliments when I wear it. The scent doesn't seem to last very long though.

I loooveeee Sol de Janeiro. Especially the 62, but man, oh, man… this smells so incredibly good! It’s reminiscent of a lovely coconuty/beachy scented sunscreen. I was going to write my review in my own words, but the Amazon generated ideas presented for this review are… Well, interesting. Let’s go over them, shall we? • Scent. Okay. Reasonable point. I already mentioned what it smells like though. Beach. Coconut. Sunscreen. Summer… but hopefully without the lemon juice or sun-in hair lightening bad idea, 6th degree of Hell sunburns, playboy bunny sticker tan line shape above the coochie covering low-riding jeans we all wore paired with 14 spaghetti strap layered tank tops and a QWERTY keyboard cell phone, alcohol induced blackouts, one-night stands, and week-long groundings. Looking at you, years 2003-2007. Anyway, moving on…. • Effectiveness? I guess it’s effective if effectiveness is determined perhaps by whether or not people might ask what scent you’re wearing. It isn’t particularly uncommon, and a reasonable question. If that is what is being determined here, then yes, it is effective. People generally have thought positive of the smell and inquire as to what it is. • Softness. Softness? What’s this mean? Like a soft scent? I guess I would describe it as a bright, bold, and airy, but still somewhat soft scent…maybe. Not like a light floral or baby powder scent though… More of a coconut scent. Slightly like sunscreen, in a good way. It smells like summer at the beach. Or the pool, I guess. I suppose it’s possible that someone might want to know if the bottle the body spray comes in is soft… or perhaps smooth, rather, and if that’s the case, then also, yes. Let’s not get it twisted here though… I don’t make it a habit to stroke bottles of body spray and determine the softness/smoothness of said vessel… That’s not something, I assume, most people are genuinely curious about. Maybe I’m wrong and way off base. Maybe it’s important to some people… But you know what? I don’t want to know why though. Please keep those thoughts and habits to yourself. Okay? Okay. Thanks. • Taste. Taste?! Sorry… I can’t help you out here. I am absolutely not tasting this body spray. If that’s your thing, please feel free to write your own review so we can all read exactly why company’s have to add warning labels to their products. Additionally, if you feel the need to taste this product, you might want to see your physician sooner than later because you probably have a condition called Pica… or Idiocy. I don’t know which… I’m not a doctor. • Value for money. Ah, yes, a normal and respectable review point. As far as value for money is concerned, I would say absolutely, yes. This stuff smells great. The quantity and scent itself generally lasts a while. It works well for casual occasions, and it’s just an overall happy scent. And I’m sure there are reviews that say, “The scent doesn’t last long,” “I have to reapply it often,” or “I can’t even smell it after 23 minutes 41 seconds [or insert random number of hours/minutes/seconds here]”. Look. Any perfume or body spray sprayed directly on the skin isn’t going to last very long. Things like body chemistry, environmental factors like heat and humidity, or fragrance concentrations can lessen the scent stick time on your skin. Pro Tip: Use an unscented moisturizer on your skin and then apply. OR… Spray it on your clothes. There are a few different methods… You can: 1.) spray it in the air and walk through it allowing it to cling to your skin (hopefully with unscented moisturizer applied first) and your clothes, 2.) lightly spritz it over your collar area, cuffs, etc., or 3.) do you and just go crazy with it by dousing yourself in the stuff like you’re an unbathed, male military member deployed to Iraq during the wretchedly hot summer months drenching yourself in PX/Shoppette purchased Axe Body Spray to mask your horrendous odor, and unsat lack of grooming standards, in the attempt to get the attention of the not-so-rare transformed stateside 3 to desert 10 deployment Queen… Also comparable to the applications standards of a cheap prostitute. Same same, ya know? Please, please don’t choose number 3. Best scenario, you end up with a case of regret (stateside 3 to desert Queen 10, remember?) and you still smell awful… like sour milk enhanced with coconut. Oh look! If it isn’t the consequences of your own terrible life choices! Anyway, just spritz it on your threads, within reason… of course. Giving people headaches (and nausea), because you lack the ability to smell it on yourself or properly bathe, isn’t cool. Sleep well, eat well, exercise, shower, brush your teeth, moisturize, spritz yo scents (liiigghhtttlyyy), and be happy. That, too, makes us all happy, headache (and nausea) free, and less likely to hate you for your overwhelming smells and bad decisions, okay? Okay. Taste though? Good grief. I’m all for natural selection and survival of the fittest, but… C’mon, Amazon. Taste? Seriously? 🤦🏼‍♀️

Vanilla, great quality, strength is amazing easy application no headache and great design

Oh my God I grabbed Sol de Janeiro Flor Mística on a Black Friday deal for $20 (normally $26) and I was so happy I did. It smells absolutely amazing, easily one of their best scents. Fresh, beautiful, and totally worth it, especially at that price!

I have a 10 yr old granddaughter that requested this perfume for Christmas. I knew nothing about the product but took a chance and bought it for her as a stocking stuffer. She was absolutely thrilled to receive it as her last bottle of this perfume mist was used up. She loves the scent. Young kids can be the biggest critics so seeing her look of surprise and joy opening this present was the reaction I was hoping for. Her mom even loves the brand, so its a win-win.

Absolutely love this scent. Light and not overwhelming

I'm so glad I went with the bigger size & didn't listen to negative reviews on this one. It does smell sweet at first then notes of ocean breeze hit you after. This is not an overwhelming sweet scent and the second notes of this really give it a more mature smell, not like candy. This also doesn't smell like alcohol on me at all. The scent lasts all day as it's meant to be sprayed all over- skin, hair, body, and clothes. It's just enough to notice but not enough to give me a migraine. Absolutely love.

I bought the Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa ’62 perfume and I love it! It smells warm, sweet, and unique — with delicious notes of pistachio, salted caramel, vanilla, and sandalwood that remind me of summer all year round. The scent is very noticeable without being too strong, perfect for everyday wear or special occasions. I’ve gotten so many compliments! The bottle is pretty and classy too. Definitely one of my new favorite fragrances.
