Review: We tried the new Sol de Janeiro Rosa Charmosa range

Review: We tried the new Sol de Janeiro Rosa Charmosa range 1

Late last year, Sol de Janeiro delighted fans with the unexpected launch of the new Rosa Charmosa range, consisting of Cheirosa 91 Perfume Mist and Rosa Charmosa Dewy Cream.

But this rose-scented duo probably isn’t what you expect. Forget the old-fashioned, heavy floral scents that come to mind when you think “rose”. Rosa Charmosa is modern and light.

The floral-fruity fragrance is a refreshing cocktail of Rio pink rose, passion fruit, and honey caramel. It’s bright, indulgent, playful, flirty and anything but predictable.

The body cream features the same gorgeous scent in a hydrating formula powered by crystal peptides to give skin that lit-from-within glow. Brazilian Yacón Essence and calming Rosewater deeply hydrate, leaving skin silky-smooth and glowing.

Rosa Charmosa is more than your favourite new fragrance; it’s also your ticket to glowing, confident skin.

Our editor put this duo to the test:

“I may be slightly biased, because in my eyes, Sol de Janeiro can do no wrong. I absolutely adore every product I’ve tried. But that didn’t stop me from taking the review of the new Rosa Charmosa range seriously.

The products landed on my desk a few weeks before they launched, and I had the pleasure of testing them before they hit the shelves.

I’m a big rose fan in general, and I really love it when a fragrance uses the rose scent in a non-traditional way. Cheirosa 91 is a gorgeous fragrance. It’s rosy, yes, but it’s also fruity and sweet. It is simultaneously light and playful, yet it has a sensual appeal that’s warm and inviting.

The body cream has a beautiful, luxurious texture. It melts into the skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth and moisturised for hours. It has the same rosy scent as the perfume mist, and I love layering the two products to increase the scent’s longevity.

If you’re into rosy, feminine fragrances, I’d highly recommend giving this duo a try.” Anien – Editor

    The way Anien the editor describe Rosa Charmosa, I can’t wait to have it in my range as it seems to fall into my class. I like the light and fruity scents. I would be more than happy if I could also be given an example to test it.
