Cheirosa 62: The Sweet Scent That Divided the Comments

What real owners actually say

Here's the awkward truth: the user comments provided don't actually discuss Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62. They're pulled from a general fragrance-layering thread where people are swapping tips on layering Not a Perfume, Glossier You, Maison Margiela Bubble Bath, Lush Rose Jam, Le Labo Another 13, Chanel, and Chloé fragrances. The conversation is rich with layering enthusiasm — people tracking scent notes in spreadsheets, debating which simple rose or vanilla fragrances pair well as base layers, and geeking out over Fragrantica olfactory groups. But none of it is about *this* product. So from the user layer alone, I can't tell you a single thing about what living with Cheirosa 62 is actually like. The community sentiment around fragrance layering in general is warm and experimental — people genuinely enjoy mixing scents and discovering combinations — but applying any of that specifically to Cheirosa 62 would be fabrication, and I won't do that to you.

The YouTube reviewers who actually tried it

The YouTube layer is where the real juice is, and it paints a vivid picture. Cheirosa 62 is *beloved* — multiple commenters copped to owning five bottles, buying jumbo sizes twice, and calling it straight-up addiction. The scent is consistently described as sweet — sometimes dreamily so, sometimes overwhelmingly so. One commenter's dad said it was 'too sweet,' and another found it 'too overwhelming' and pivoted to SDJ 48 instead. The body mist clearly has fans who prefer it over the EDP version, with one person stating outright they prefer the mist to the actual perfume. The EDP gets called 'a little overpriced for the longevity' — ouch — while the mist paired with the body cream is called 'heavenly' and 'essential for summer.' There's a seasonality signal too: one reviewer categorizes it as a fall scent that performs better in cooler temps, while another says it transforms beautifully when skin warms up — so your climate may genuinely shift the experience. Longevity is the recurring question mark, with multiple people asking how long it lasts and suggesting you need the matching body cream to 'amp up the scent strength.' There's also a batch-consistency red flag: someone reported buying 62 at Ulta and it smelling different from their friend's bottle. A $40 dupe (Oakcha's Kissed Glow, an extrait de parfum) was flagged as stronger and longer-lasting. Among the SDJ lineup, 62 has fierce competition — 40, 59, and 68 all have passionate camps — but 62 consistently lands in people's top two or three.
