Refresco Paraíso

Aromatic, fresh, and slightly fruity. I was very scared that this would be too fruity or sweet. While 48 is nice, I was really hoping this would be a fresh scent. All those incentivized reviews really scared me with the fruity notes.. However, I was pleasantly surprised - the banana leaf blends in well (i had an unpleasant experience with MJ daisy wild); and the salt is not overpowering. I cannot pinpoint what exact tropical fruit is used, but it is definitely not the star of the show. There is an initial second of juicy sweetness, but it dries down to a fresh, green, and slightly citrusy scent. The orchid rounds it out perfectly. The cactus note is quite interesting - if you read how this note is synthesized, it explains the dewy/rainy aspect of the mist. Of course slightly synthetic, but completely different from sdj's usual gourmand bombs. Someone on sephora said it was evoking of where the sea meets the jungle, and I agree. This, along with agua mistica from last year, are the best mists from sdj for a hot summer day.

I wish this wouldn't be limited because I spray this on me a lot lately. It has this sweet fruity scent mixed with this freshness and lightness that makes it soo fitting for warm summer days without being too much. It's very juicy on me I get a lot of the banana leaves and cactus, complimented by that fresh marine note. I don't really get the lime much but maybe it adds to the freshness. It sits rather close to the skin but when spraying a good amount people next to me/ hugging me complimented the scent :) It's not very long lasting, but it's a body spray so I didn't expect it to. I have it in my bag and can refresh it from time to time. Pairs well with most fruity light summery scents. This summer this is my absolute go to body spray!

this is my fav release from the destination drop... i was worried i wasn't going to like it since the whole marketing seemed like it was going to be another danca mistica (the worst sdj after 59) but it surprised me .. its so clean , fruity, fresh and crisp. to my nose I get a lot of fruit and the smell of green which i'm guessing is the cactus? lol but the tropical notes listed has to be dragon fruit and like a very green banana. it's seriously soo good i hope they consider this for a permanent cheirosa and i will be stocking up on it while i can but i see it being the least popular next to cheeky biquini and limonada gelada :'( (still waiting for them to bring back carioca crush!!!) 🌵🍐

This is so good. It smells like the color on the bottle. Like an ocean blue. Makes me wanna bounce in the ocean like a dolphin. Picture me hopping and diving and cackling like a dolphin. Picture me doin dolphin things. Just not the evil dolphin things. Dolphins are evil. If you think about it, if you say “A Dolphin”, you are actually saying something else. Get rid of the space between A and D in “A Dolphin” then add a space between the H and I. /D0IPH in Water. Who is in water? Ya. Now what are you really saying. Open your eyes Miami.

This is super pretty, it's my favourite from this year's limited editions and might be one of my favourites from SDJ overall. It's very refreshing and aquatic but fruity and juicy at the same time, and I don't get the feeling that I have smelled it over and over again before, like with some body mists. Not too sweet at all for the hot weather. Also has surprisingly good longevity.
