Beijos de Sol

When I first smelt this I instantly liked it a lot, but two weeks later when someone around me sprayed it and I smelt it on them, It turned into a love and I purchased two bottles (since it's limited edition). It has that standard sol de Janeiro gourmand formula but without any weird synthetic notes that you might pick up in the other ones like 62 and 71. Im very much getting a coconut creme brulee kind of vibe from this with the addition of a bit of the rio radiance formula that reminds you of hot beach sands in summer and sunscreen, but that note is much more balanced and not as strong which I prefer. To me this is 100% an elevated version of their signature gourmand fragrances. I think the hype on this fragrance isn't as big as it should be because people are now very used to this type of scent from SDJ but if it had been released as part of the original line I'm convinced it would instantly be a bestseller. To my surprise this fragrance actually lasts AND projects like the better half of their line. Usually I'd expect hella successful brands like SDJ to start watering down their fragrances by now but this performs just as good as many EDP's to me, got me compliments (from men too) and I could smell in my laundry two days after spraying. This is a well balanced fragrance that projects and lasts without being overpowering so I do like to generously spray. To summarise I would say this fragrance very much combines the all of the same notes and concepts you will find in the 62, 39 (discontinued) and Rio Radiance fragrances, with a more realistic gourmand note and less of a synthetic note, not to forget it has a nice amount of sweetness without being overpowering or anywhere near 71.

Initial Thoughts: Sweet, fruity, and creamy from the coconut milk. Green but not herbal. Syrupy but not heavy. I really love summer scents and this fills a void in my collection. Its tropical but peach forward and creamy. I do not find it musky. This pulls a honey note on my skin but that could just be my body chemistry because I did not read any other reviews mentioning that. I do understand the comparisons to other Sol De Janerio perfumes. You could replace the Guava in Cheirosa 48 with peach and get a very similar scent. It lasts about 4-5 hours with an arm’s length scent bubble and a lovely moderate silage. I do have to reapply but the bottle is easy to carry in my purse so I do not mind. I think you have to wear this on skin or your hair in a warm environment to get the full effect. Wearing it on clothes helps with longevity but it does not smell as rich. This is my favorite from the three limited editions from 2024 and I am sad that I cannot repurchase this. 8/10. Try combining it with Clean Reserve Sparking Sugar. This combo adds a sugary sweetness and helps with Beijos De Sol’s longevity. The peach notes in each perfume is different. Sparking Sugar is a fresh peach, and Beijo De Sol’s peach is almost overly ripe. But they complement each other very well and this combo has an evanescent quality.

My 2nd favorite of the new 3 summer fragrances! Beachy, bright, tropical, juicy, sweet, sunny, creamy, and happy. I really pick up on the coconut milk, peach, and mango, especially when I first spray it. It feels bright, tropical, juicy, and fruity. As it dries down the coconut becomes more creamy and I can pick up the frangipani, musk, and woodsy notes. I do prefer it a little more once it’s been on for at least 30 minutes and has become less fruity and juicy, but more of a creamy coconut with a floral, musky, and woodsy scent. I’m not getting any sun tan lotion scent with this one like I do with a lot of coconut fragrances. Definitely a really nice coconut scent for summer. I always get really good performance with SDJ mists, and Beijos de Sol is no exception. The scent lasts throughout the whole day, and it projects out about an arm’s length from me. I also just wanted to mention that I don’t get any similarities between this one, Coco Cabana 39, or Rio Radiance. If anything it would be closer to Rio Radiance just because it’s not a super sweet or gourmand coconut scent like Coco Cabana 39.

This smells good. It’s giving VS coconut body mist, but elevated. There is some fruitiness here, but mostly a creamy coconut. I like it! It’s not the artificial smelling, almost desiccated sweetened coconut in most sprays. It actually smells quite similar to “Thank U, Next” but without the strong rose which creates that “pickle” smell that it’s known for. Basically, it’s TUN but better. I’ll definitely be keeping this one! It’s very yummy. Edit: when it hits the dry down, it becomes a lot muskier, but keeps the coconut and slight fruitiness. This scent evolves a lot! Make sure you wear it once to see if it’s something you would like.

This was a love at first sniff, and after leaving it sit for a while it has only gotten better ( I can smell almost all the notes, whereas before I only got coconut) and surprisingly a lot longer lasting on me. This is my favorite scent out of all 3 releases and will be my favorite out of the SDJ line if it ever becomes permanent (fingers crossed). I have been trying to find a dupe of this in case we never see it again, and along the way I found many dupes for Carioca Crush and Summer e Amor, but nothing has come close to Beijos de Sol.

love love LOVE this!! was a blind buy (wanted a good peach scent for the hot weather) and it did not disappoint. i am not getting any of the sunscreen vibes i've seen others write about. to me, it comes off as a very peachy and creamy scent. definitely giving tropical summer vacation vibes. it lasts maybe 4-5 hours on clothes, not sure about skin as i usually only use mists for clothing. would def recommend if you need a good summer fragrance :)) (P.S.: if anyone knows a good EDP dupe for this please let me know bc i need it)

okay when it comes to SDJ I HATE how bad their longevity is but this summer collection is pulling through better than their other scents!! as for the scent- my personal taste are sweet and gentle fragrances and I feel like this one matches the description. My favorite thing about this is how nostalgic it feels and in those terms, it's the perfect summer scent in my books. It makes me feel happy when I'm wearing it and like im enjoying a good day at the beach so thats definitely why I'M personally obsessed with it.

My favorite from the summer 2024 SDJ limited edition trio! Light sunscreen-adjacent scent. Reminds me a BIT of Rio Radiance, which is one of my favorites from the SDJ core line, but that one is definitely a heavier sunscreen floral scent (probably because of the prominent tuberose). Beijos de Sol is airier, more fruity (I definitely get some peach) and light on the florals (but they’re still detectable).

Not sure if I posted this already, but I smelled it again today and it just threw me back in time, do any millennials remember the bath and body works art stuff collection? This smells EXACTLY like coco crush! It opened up a memory portal I didn’t know I had. I used to have the body glitter and I was OBSESSED with it. I love this one, perfect for summer.

I love this body spray, it’s so summery, top notes of peach, coconut milk & sea air, then I can smell peach and a touch of vanilla cream, it makes me feel so happy when I wear it. It’s not too heavy on coconut (like Malibu beach) and it’s more of a green coconut fragrance than the coconut smell you get from shampoo.

this was gifted to me as this had peach notes. I really enjoy this scent, it's a more refined BBW type of fruity summer scent. I don't pick up on the peach notes, but I do smell some kind of fruit, coconut and a nice musky base. An enjoyable summer/spring scent and I'm sure I'll be using all the juice

Madly in love with this scent- started getting really into coconut scents as the weather started warming up! Some coconut scents turn too nutty/almond on my skin but this one is just right. I'll be pairing it with V&Rs Tigerlily! Mango & Coconut together smell sooo good! 🥭🥥🍹

Coconut without the sunscreen with a juicy mango and fuzzy peach and fruity tropical vibes with the plumeria flower! Can we get a Parfum version please&&They need to also make this permanent and make this into a whole body care line for summer 2025’

i dont like to blind buy anymore but this was too tempting with the sale. smells like coconut cream topped with peach skin and mango. i need to test it on skin a few more times but im enjoying this sm i love/hate finding a good limited edition

I love this and almost at the end of my bottle. If anyone knows a dupe please send me a message 😁

this is a soft but tropical green peach scent and i adore it. scent of the summer methinks.

Oooooh I'm so excited for this one! Hopefully will be my first SDJ scent!

the yummy curly hair product in a perfume,i’ve been looking for🙌🏾

Layer this with Carioca Crush 🤩 The result is simply amazing 🥰

Fav body mist of all time and by far the best from sdj!!
