Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 40 Body Fragrance Mist Review
Fragrantica - If I had to choose between 62,71 and 40, I'd choose 40 in a heartbeat. I'm crying that I got the small size I should've gotten the bigger bottle since this is a gorgeous scent. The first thing I smelt was plum but the dry down is vanilla. It reminds me of this tamarind candy I used to eat as a child. It might just be me but I smelt olives, Vegemite and sweet corn. Don't be thrown off by this, it's absolutely amazing I can't stop sniffing myself. It's giving vanilla marshmallow vibes like you're roasting marshmallows on a stove.
Fragrantica - The vanilla and amber make this really sexy and the plum makes it kind of juicy and fun. It's almost a little shampoo-y but in a good way. Longevity and silage is also pretty impressive.
Fragrantica - So I was craving a vanilla scent that isn't overly sweet or heavy, .. And this scent is so yummy! The plum and vanilla combo is SO GOOD! The scent is quite sweet but not cloyingly sweet, just in the perfect amount. It smells somewhat warm and inviting but at the same time not heavy, very light and airy. It lasts for 3-4 hours on me, which is pretty good for a body mist and it projects too. 'm so happy with this purchase!
Fragrantica - omg... this is actually really addictive just to smell while in the bottle, when you can just slightly catch a whiff of the scent. the layering of the scents is so intriguing to me, you get a nice smell of the plum and berry-ish smell one moment, and the next youre smelling this sweet fresh vanilla. it kind of reminds me of this one scent this luxury mall in vegas used indoors. its such an interesting smell to me, i keep going back to smell the nozzle!!
Fragrantica - Smells absolutely gorgeous. I have now officially smelt most of the Sol de Janeiro line and this is definitely becoming a firm favourite of mine. This and 68 are very very close! To me smells fruity I can definitely smell the plum and then dry down is very vanilla. Reminds me of summer and the dry down is lovely and the vanilla really comes out more when warmed up by your skin. I also think this lingers on you all day and smells Devine.... absolutely in love!
Fragrantica - ...it dried into olfactory heaven. ... #40 body spray is amazing and I've bought two bottles thus far! you must wait 10-20 minutes after spraying. If you wait, #40 body spray becomes a smooth, rich, boozy vanilla. Imagine if the Replica fragrance "jazz club" had a baby with warm vanilla rum cake. When I tell you this is gourmand, I mean in the smoothest way! I will layer #40 under "jazz club" to increase the boozy sweetness. I will treasure this body spray just as I treasure some of my $200+ fragrances. It's that intoxicating!
Fragrantica - Smells like Narciso Rodriguez musc noir/noir intense, just a tiny bit more fresh. It's delicious.
Fragrantica - Cheirosa '40 is my favorite of the line.
Fragrantica - I got a very distinct Chinese sour plum drink vibe from this one. If you're Chinese you probably know the flavour/scent profile I'm talking about. It's like a smoky, tangy, sweet, and plumy punch. The plum in this is almost like a dried plum (so basically a prune scent).
Fragrantica - I smell mostly the woodsy notes with a hint of vanilla. It smells similar to 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods. I was complimented on this fragrance a lot when I wore it out. It lasted all night, even through dancing and a crowded room.
Fragrantica - I love it! Initial spray is VERY plum-y but with almost a hint of jammy rose. Dries down almost identical to Nirvana Bourbon on my skin. I typically do not like body sprays, and I'm not a huge fan of '62, but this is very nice.
Fragrantica - A new love for me and maybe my favorite Sol de Janerio...when I sprayed it the for the first time I immediately said mmmm! and I just knew it was something different. It's a sexy vanilla. It's not a cloying vanilla, not too sweet, not too fruity. this one is just right. My boyfriend loves this too so I have to actively stop myself from wearing it. Haha.
Fragrantica - As much as I love the original sol de janeiro 62 scent, this one is is more elevated. This one feels more fancy, more rosey, more of feminine night out vibe to it. It smells like sweet cherry candy to me. Highly recommend if you like the original but want something that smells a bit richer. Update: I notice everytime I wear this I get compliments. WAY more than Cheirosa 62. ..this one is more of a pretty soft scent with great projection
Fragrantica - i actually love this scent, it's very fruity on me and it doesn't have that alcohol smell after applying, it does smells like tobacco and fruit while spraying. for me i get much more of a powdery fruity smell with little hints of tobacco. on my skin it lasts around 5-6ish hours, shorter than '72 staying on my skin until the next day but overall i love using this scent!
Fragrantica - The plum is an absolute superstar in this BEAUTIFUL scent. Love from first smell. Very friendly, very likeable but also not as plain as you'd expect it to be. Would love to see it in a perfume version.
