Sol de Janeiro Reviews

Best of Thingtesting4.5

Sol de Janeiro earns enthusiastic reviews for intoxicating, tropical-gourmand scents—especially Brazilian Bum Bum Cream and Cheirosa 62—and for fast-absorbing, non-greasy textures that leave skin soft and smooth. Reviews also flag weaknesses: some fragrances read overpowering or “cheap,” scent longevity varies, hydration can feel light or even drying for some, firming claims underwhelm, and several users consider it overpriced; still, many report compliments, enjoyable layering, and standout staples like lip butter, deodorant, and hair oil.

  • If you love rich—like ULTRA rich—body creams, this texture is so satisfyingly thick and whipped. Because of this, I was kinda surprised about how well it melts into the skin. It keeps my skin feeling softer and hydrated for hours after applying it. Also, the scent is on the sweet gourmand side—it’s just divine!

  • If you’re a fan of SDJ’s signature strong and sweet scents, you absolutely have to try this lotion! Personally, I love those, I think this one is pure perfection. It’s warm, rich, and just… delicious. I also love the texture!! It melts into your skin and hydrates like crazy without leaving you feeling greasy. It honestly makes me feel like I’m on a tropical vacation.

  • Easily one of the best aluminum free deodorants I’ve used in a while! The scent last all day and is powerful enough for summertime. It really smooth going on and I haven’t had any issues with white marks on clothing This scent is a lot more gourmand than I was expecting from the description, but it smells good regardless. Love that it’s refillable, I wish there was a better discount for the refills.

  • I have been a Sol De Janeiro fan for over 10+ years, since well before it became mainstream and trendy. It all started with the bum bum cream! Their customer service has always been exceptional, as have their products. I have turned my sisters and my niece into Sol de Janeiro fans. We love everything from their perfumes to their body lotions. The perfumes are long lasting and the body lotions provide an ample amount of hydration. There is no going wrong with these products! I am excited to gift my sister the duo that is pictured.
