Sol de Janeiro reviews and discussion

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.

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.

Sol de Janeiro Rosa Charmosa Dewy Cream leaves skin so soft and luminous. The hydration is real. My only note is the Cheirosa 91 scent is intense, so a little goes a long way. Still a repurchase for me.

Sol de Janeiro is pure joy in a brand. Everything feels sensory, warm, and intentionally indulgent. Right now, Delícia Drench and Cheirosa 59 are my favorite scent combo. Delícia Drench leaves my skin deeply hydrated and smooth without feeling heavy, and Cheirosa 59 is such a cozy, slightly sweet, addictive fragrance. Together they layer beautifully and make my skin smell incredible all day. What I love about Sol de Janeiro overall is how they blend skincare performance with fragrance. The products don’t just smell good, they actually leave my skin feeling soft, nourished, and cared for. The packaging is fun but still elevated, and the experience feels luxurious without being overly complicated. It’s one of those brands that turns everyday routines into something you look forward to.

The smell of this is amazing but I would definitely would’ve liked it better to have bought the body cream because I feel like the body wash is too expensive for the experience it gives you. It’s nice but not extraordinary

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.

de Janeiro Body Badalada Vitamin-Infused Lotion absorbs fast and genuinely doesn’t leave any greasy residue — skin feels soft immediately and stays hydrated through the day without needing a reapply. The Cheirosa ‘62 scent (pistachio, salted caramel, vanilla) is a big part of the appeal and it’s noticeably more subtle and shorter-lived than the perfume mist or Bum Bum Cream in the same scent line, so don’t expect it to project all day. What could improve: for genuinely dry skin it’s on the lighter side — several reviewers note it’s less moisturizing than the Bum Bum Cream and better suited to daily maintenance than deep repair; the scent, while pleasant on skin, fades within an hour or two, which is disappointing if that’s the main reason you’re buying it; and it’s priced at the premium end for a body lotion, so the value depends heavily on how much the scent experience matters to you versus straightforward hydration.

I am a fan of this brand in general, but I am specifically a fan of their deodorants. I love that they offer refills. Sustainability is a top priority for me when choosing a product. The scents are SO GOOD.

It smells great! It's now a part of my daily routine. It's very smooth and makes my skin look bright and wonderful. I wear it on my legs for a natural shiny look. One or two dollops is enough for your body. It's small but it lasts me a long time. I definitely recommend it!

Rich, but smells sooooo strong . If you want to smell like a tanning salon, its a nice product. To omuch for me

I recently received a mini of this cream as part of a beauty gift and I love it! The smell, the texture and how quickly it absorbs. I'm not sure if I would purchase it myself, but I see the hype!

The Bum Bum Body Scrub is absolutely worth the hype! It leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft, smooth, and hydrated without being too harsh. The texture is perfect—it exfoliates well while still feeling gentle, and it rinses off beautifully. The signature Sol de Janeiro scent is amazing and lingers on the skin just enough to feel fresh and luxurious. My skin always looks healthier and feels silky after using it. I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

This is my go to product to put on after being in the sun or before a night out. Leaves my skin so hydrated and glowy. The bronze shimmer makes my skin look so plump and healthy. 10/10 would recommend, especially for in the summer!

The smell of this is addictive. SO incredibly hydrating and leaves my skin the softest it has ever been. I would repurchase this product over and over again. Also, such an amazing gift to buy for anyone!

I love Brazilian Bum Bum Cream so much that I am a repeat customer! I waited too long to try it and once I did, I understood what all the hype is about! Do not waste your time with the knockoffs (I wasted my money), get the real deal. The smell is amazing! The texture is soft. No grease, no mess. This Cream is perfect! I use it everyday - and not just on my Bum Bum.

I've been using the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream for a while now, and I can see why it's so popular. The texture is rich but absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling soft, smooth, and hydrated without any greasy residue. The scent is definitely the highlight, warm, sweet, and tropical with notes of pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla that last for hours. It makes my skin feel luxurious every time I use it. While it's on the pricey side, a little goes a long way, so the jar lasts longer than I expected. I haven't noticed dramatic firming results, but it does leave my skin looking healthy and radiant. If you enjoy long-lasting gourmand fragrances and want a moisturizing body cream that feels indulgent, this one is absolutely worth trying.

10/10 it’s sooo good i was nervous at first but it left my skin very smooth. there wasn’t any irritation either.

I must be one of the few people who is not a fan of this brand. I find their products to be way overpriced but its the level of fragrance that I can't get behind. They are just so overpowering that it starts to give me a headache.

Big fan of sol de janeiro! I don’t care if it’s glorified bath and body works, I love it. The purple one (59) is my all time favorite especially during the summer. It stays on my clothes and smells delicious and warm.

I tried this for awhile and didn’t like it but I decided to give it a chance again and it’s just kinda meh. I know that SDJ gets a lot of love but for me it’s just an okay brand. I didn’t find anything particularly special about this scent, it’s your typical fruity body mist that you can get at like BBW for a cheaper price. I know they get a lot of love but the longevity is practically nonexistent. I guess they’re very hit or miss and for me it was unfortunately a big miss. I think that the bottle is kinda cute tho.
