Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ?68 Beija Flor Hair & Body Fragrance Mist ($35) is a new hair and body mist that contains notes of Brazilian Jasmine and Vanilla. And yes, you’ve probably heard by now it’s a dupe for Ariana Grande’s Cloud or Baccarat Rouge 540.
It’s not but I do yeah, it kind does give off that vibe.

Why Sol De Janeiro decided to launch Beija Flor Elasti-Cream with Collagen and Squalane separate from Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ?68 Beija Flor Hair & Body Fragrance Mist is beyond me. I’m just relieved they did as I’m still waiting for a Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ?71 Hair & Body Fragrance Mist Body Cream to drop. I hope they surprise me for Summer because I’d buy a case! When I got my first jar of Beija Flor Elasti-Cream with Collagen and Squalane I sat for hours trying to figure out what it was that it reminded me of. It’s a very light scent with notes of Brazilian Jasmine, Pink Dragonfruit, and Vanilla. I never truly get the vanilla in this scent but I do get the fruity element of dragonfruit and the lovely soft delicate jasmine note. It finally came to me that it smelled a little like Cloud or Baccarat Rouge 540. No, it’s not a dupe. It has has the same DNA as the scent with a far more low-key, softer and less gourmand effect that you’d get from BR540. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t pair up beautifully with those scents.
It’s a lovely, close-to-the-s...
