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

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its youthful, sweet, and fruity profile makes it ideal for casual wear and dates, but the potential for cloying sweetness and inconsistent projection means it's less suited for formal or office settings. Several users report it as a summer signature scent or a day-to-night option.

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.
