What Is Sol de Janeiro?
Sol de Janeiro is a Brazilian-inspired beauty brand that has taken the UK by storm — and for good reason. Built on the philosophy that beauty should be joyful, sensory, and unapologetically indulgent, the brand blends Brazilian botanicals with vibrant, gourmand fragrances to create body care that genuinely makes you feel something. From the cult-favourite Bum Bum Cream to the addictive Cheirosa perfume mists, every product is designed to transport you to the sun-drenched beaches of Rio de Janeiro — no passport required.
The Iconic Cheirosa Perfume Mists
If you've ever walked past someone and thought "what is that incredible scent?", there's a good chance it was a Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa mist. The Cheirosa collection is the heart of the brand — a family of hair and body perfume mists, each with its own distinct personality.
Cheirosa 62 — Pistachio & Salted Caramel
The one that started it all. Cheirosa 62 opens with mouth-watering pistachio and almond, melts into a jasmine heart, and settles into a warm base of salted caramel and vanilla. It's gourmand, addictive, and utterly unforgettable. Also available as a 50ml Eau de Parfum for longer-lasting wear.
Cheirosa 48 — Fresh Floral Musk
For those who prefer something lighter and airier, Cheirosa 48 is a clean, fresh floral with soft white flowers, delicate musk, and a hint of warmth. Available in a generous 240ml size — perfect for daily, uninhibited use at home.
Cheirosa 68, 71, 59, 76 — Explore the Full Family
The Cheirosa family doesn't stop at 62. Each number tells a different scent story — from fruity tropical blends to warm, woody musks. Browse the full collection to find your signature scent.
The Body Ritual: How to Layer Sol de Janeiro
The secret to making Sol de Janeiro fragrances last all day is layering. Here's the ritual:
- Cleanse — Start with a matching body wash. The Beija Flor Moisturising Body Wash or the Bom Dia Bright range are excellent starting points.
- Exfoliate — Use the Bom Dia Body Scrub 2–3 times a week to resurface skin and help fragrance absorb more deeply.
- Moisturise — Apply a body cream or butter while skin is still slightly damp. The Bom Dia Bright AHA Body Cream is a cult favourite for its brightening cupuaçu butter formula.
- Mist — Finish with your chosen Cheirosa perfume mist over pulse points, neck, and hair. The fragrance clings to moisturised skin far longer than on dry skin.
Glow & Shimmer
For days when you want your skin to do the talking, reach for the Copacabana Bronze Glow Motion — a shimmering bronzing body oil that delivers an instant, luminous glow. Lightweight, fast-absorbing, and utterly gorgeous in the sun.
Travel & Gift Sets
New to Sol de Janeiro and not sure where to start? The Body Wash Travel Size Trio is the perfect introduction — three iconic shower gels in TSA-friendly 90ml bottles. Or go all-in with the Bom Dia Bright Bundle, which includes the scrub, body wash, and deodorant in one complete brightening set.
Hair Care
Sol de Janeiro's expertise extends beyond body care. The Brazilian Glossy Nourishing Anti-Frizz Hair Oil and Brazilian Joia Conditioner bring the same indulgent, fragrant philosophy to your hair routine — leaving strands glossy, smooth, and delicately scented.
