Sol de Janeiro’s latest Jelly Perfume Balms offer up to 1,000 swipes in a compact, portable design. These solid perfumes blend current beauty trends like jelly textures into convenient balms priced at £25 each.
Discovering the Jelly Perfume Balms
The Brazilian beauty brand recently introduced three top scents in jelly balm form: Cheirosa 62, Cheirosa 68, and Cheirosa 40. Available exclusively at Boots, these balms mirror the popular lotion and mist versions but deliver a softer, more natural fragrance.
With experience testing solid perfumes from brands like Lush and Glossier, these jelly balms stood out for their unique consistency. They glide smoothly without stickiness, ideal for quick touch-ups in a handbag or pocket—perfect for travel without liquid restrictions.
Scent Profiles
Cheirosa 62 Jelly Perfume Balm
This warm gourmand scent features salted caramel, pistachio, and vanilla notes. It evokes a nutty, creamy summer vibe with subtle florals, feeling less intense than the mist counterpart.
Cheirosa 68 Jelly Perfume Balm
A fruity-floral mix of pink dragon fruit and lychee, it offers a fresh, creamy aroma with a musky finish. While vibrant, the dragon fruit note may appeal more to younger users or fans of the original mist.
Cheirosa 40 Jelly Perfume Balm
Combining black amber plum, crème de cassis, jasmine, Brazilian orchid, and vanilla woods, this sultry floral gourmand balances sweetness and delicacy.
Performance and Longevity
Alcohol-free and residue-free, the balms apply effortlessly without dragging or tackiness. A single swipe provides all-day scent detection, though more intimate than sprays that linger on clothes and hair.
At £25, they cost slightly more than 90ml mists but promise better value for frequent users, lasting far longer without rapid depletion.
Customer Feedback
Shoppers praise the products. One reviewer of Cheirosa 40 noted: “This is an amazing scent and the product will last you all day. It’s a reasonable price and it’s very age-appropriate, I would recommend to anyone.”
For Cheirosa 62, a customer shared: “This product is really nice to apply. I love the texture/scent of it. It lasts a while and absorbs into my skin. I was surprised to smell how strong it is, it is better than the spray.”
Not all experiences match; one user gave a one-star review: “I bought this a week ago. The smell doesn’t last long causing you to re-apply it and waste even more of the product. I re-applied it so many times that now it is almost finished. Not to mention, not a lot of product comes in the actual packaging.”
Overall, these balms deliver on portability and natural scent, making them a strong contender for on-the-go fragrance needs.
