What does Mini Beauty smell like?

Mandarin orange, grapefruit and blackcurrant give the opening a fresh, green frame, while orange blossom adds a light floral touch. In the heart, coconut, plum and raspberry pull the scent toward sweet fruit. The base of musk, iris, cedar and bourbon vanilla settles into a powdery, creamy floor.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. It is positioned as a women's fragrance. Parfums de Marly Oriana and Maison Alhambra Reyna have a close profile.
