The oil separated from my wax. When I poured the wax melt they dried oil was in bottom of containers. I did another batch. Stirred the wax every time before I poured a wax melt. It still seperated.
So delicious!!!
I wear 71 everyday and I can say this smells nothing like it so I was disappointed about that.. so I won’t use it :(
Works great with HP soaps, very similar to the original scent.
Very interesting combination of scents, its rich & subtle simultaneously
Okay, I got this as a sample and made a few 8oz candles with it - my husband thought it smelled like cinnamon toast crunch (much to his surprise there is no cinnamon) and to me, it smells like a creamy nutty caramel with a sexy undertone of SOMETHING. anyway, we came back and got the big bottle.
Great for lotion, smells just like Cheirosa 71
very light but smells just like 71!
It has grown on me
I have tried dozens of 71 dupe oils from other companies, and none were strong enough for perfume, or really nailed the scent. Of course, leave it to MWF to accomplish the seemingly impossible! This is IDENTICAL to the SDJ 71, amd is STRONG enough for ANY product. I am obsessed! Anyone who mentioned they didn't like it in the reviews clearly never smelled the original SDJ 71.
I used this scent in wax melts and lotion. I had some trouble incorporating it into the wax, not sure what caused this. I did read other reviews and noted someone else reported similar issues. I plan to use this in other creations to test it. I LOVE this fragrance!! although cp soap maybe a challenge, this scent is worth the minimal trouble. I plan to order a larger bottle soon.
This has been a good seller for me in sugar scrubs, lotion, butters and soap. Even though it is not fun to soap with, it has earned a permanent place in my
product line. I will be ordering more and plan to expand my offerings to include it in wax melts, room spray and body mist.
I do not love this scent but many do, It sells really well in rollerball perfume
I initially planned on carrying this only in the fall and winter but I’m glad I added it over the summer. Once the customers know it’s a dup of a well loved scent, they are ready to purchase. I use GB 464 soy wax and wooden wicks and it burns well.
I LOVVVEEEE this! I could eat it, it's that yummy. I make body products and a little goes a long way with this beauty. Sugar scrubs, body spray, bubble bath! Remember A LITTLE goes a long way, it's that strong. In candles I back it down to 5-6%, after my wax melts I turn off the pot, pour in the FO, let it sit for a minute, then stir for 2 minutes. The heavier oils I've always done this, and it helps to warm the oil to incorporate better into the wax. Start out half you would with your other FO's then adjust accordingly. YUMMY!
I get a strong burnt sugar smell, reminds me of creme brulee'. I recommend to blend it with Pumpkin, eggnog, coffee scents.
Smells like a cherry cigar. I wish I could send it back!
Love the smell of this one! It does accelerate really fast in soap and the smell changes a little. Still a hit though! Love it! A favorite for sure.
I was so excited for this one, but it smells like pure syrup.
Smells wonderful
I will say first that I’m a huge FAN of Midwest fragrance co- I’ve tried em ALL- and this company is top notch! This review is only my personal opinion/preference. I really wanted to love this FO so much so that I purchased 2 16 oz bottles before testing it out. In my opinion it’s nothing like the “SOL DE JANEIRO”. I tried it in body cream, sugar scrub and a room spray- If you like strong smelling maple doughnuts, you’ll love this one. A little goes a long way.
Spot on!
The smell changes slightly when in the soap. It still smells good. To me it smells more like chocolate when curing. My daughter says it is just fine. Does accelerate fast like it says
OMG… this smells SO GOOD!! May be my favorite.
One of my favorites out of them all
I only bought 2 two ounce bottles of this because I wasn’t sure how it would smell. It’s wonderful. The nutty caramel notes stand out to me the most. I made wax melts with this and the hot throw is perfect.
This fragrance oil is amazing! Everyone loves it in my candles. The white chocolate and caramel notes really stand out.
Beautiful fragrance
The picture may be misleading if you're not familiar with Sol de Janeiro, but Cheirosa 71 is my favorite body spray! 71 is not beachy, it's a warm nutty gourmand. Hubby says it smells like buttery waffles! Now that I have this, I'm definitely gonna make my own body butter!
I've been making soap for 6 years, so I'm decently experienced. Soap batter was nice and runny, one solid color already mixed, and hand stirred in the FO. It was runny, then it was solid. I had to scoop it in the molds and beat them down. And, it was slightly chunky, like it was trying to separate. Idk if my bars will be sellable. My husband loves the scent though😆
Smelling it out of the bottle, I wasn't in love. It smelled a lot like my coffee but once it heated up ooooh man!!!! It's heaven!!! I love it so much.

The recommended fragrance load can vary depending on your project, but here’s a good starting point: for candles, we suggest 6–10% of your total wax weight, depending on your wax type and personal preference. For soaps, always checkIFRA usage rates to ensure your oils are skin-safe and used at the right level. When in doubt, start small and adjust until you find your perfect balance!
