Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa '40 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Cheirosa '40 opens with Redcurrant Leaf, Ambergris, and Plum, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, and Vanilla. Sol de Janeiro's Cheirosa '40 carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This is a love-it-or-hate-it beast, and honestly, the hate often smells like pure vomit or public toilets. If you're lucky, you'll get a juicy plum and vanilla dream, but beware the medicinal alcohol and synthetic sweetness.

About

Opens with a boozy, jammy plum and bright redcurrant leaf, veering between luscious sweetness and a strangely medicinal tang. The heart blossoms with jasmine and orchid, adding a soft, floral touch before settling into a creamy, warm drydown of vanilla, woods, and musky ambergris. It's a sweet, fruity experience, though for many, the fruit note is elusive.
