“Sol de Janeiro announced on their instagram that they will be re-releasing this one. I can’t wait to finally try it.”
Fragrance fans have been lamenting for years the loss of Sol de Janeiro’s ‘most gorgeous’ coconut scent. In fact, Cheirosa 39 was so missed that there’s even a petition with over 3,000 signatures who begged for its return.
Thankfully, the hair and body fragrance mist is finally back – and shoppers can get a 90ml bottle for £24 on LookFantastic. This summery scent opens up with a decadent coconut cream top note that instantly transports the wearer to beachy days ahead. Its wrapped up in a heart of vanilla and tropical orchid before settling down into a heart of toasted praline.
It has been suggested that Cheirosa 39 is quite similar to Cheirosa 71 but ‘with more coconut’. The latter has regularly been praised for being a sister to the cult classic Cheirosa 62 for cooler months with it’s toasted nuts, chocolate and caramelised vanilla notes.

While the limited-edition mist hasn’t pulled in any reviews yet on LookFantastic, over on Fragrantica fragrance buffs have been buzzing about the scent for years. One fan said: “The most gorgeous coconut body mist to walk this earth. Luckily I had managed to get my hands on a 90ml through second hand; but omg it’s so so worth the money i spent. I used two sprays alone, and it’s lasted all day. The most delicious coconut opens it up immediately, then you get a white chocolatey dry down on my clothes atleast.”
A second penned: “I grabbed a small bottle at Sephora before this scent was discontinued, I wish I would’ve gotten a few big bottles. This is the most long lasting body mist in my collection and it smells so good. Creamy coconut and vanilla, perfect for layering. I love this layered with Yum Boujee Marshmallow by Kayali and Yum Pistachio Gelato, perfect long lasting combos that are guaranteed to get you compliments.” For those interested in the Kayali scents mentioned in this review, both are priced at £79 each for a 50ml bottle. They’re available at Cult Beauty and Boots.

A third shopper wrote: “Sol de Janeiro announced on their instagram that they will be re-releasing this one. I can’t wait to finally try it.”
A fourth added: “The fragrance community’s BIGGEST loss known to mankind. This is the MOST gorgeous coconut scent and nothing else even comes close to it. I’m beyond upset that i got into it after it was discontinued. I ended up buying 4 of them from resellers and i still fear running out of this spray that i adore so much. I can’t find anything quite like it at all- the other coconut scents tend to be sweeter or tropical.”
The main critique the scent has received online is how difficult it is to find. Shoppers might also want to keep in mind it doesn’t have any caramel notes which Sol de Janeiro is widely recognised for.
Cheirosa 39 is back for a limited time on LookFantastic, costing £24.
