This Is The Worst Perfume I Own & Won’t Recommend It To Anyone

Anyone who says they’re not a fan of Miniso is lying to you. I don’t care if you don’t buy anything, it’s simply so much fun to stroll through the stacks of things they don’t need. That’s how I ended up with the Miniso Fairy Garden Eau De Toilette and here’s what I think.

What Is It?

The Miniso Fairy Garden Eau De Toilette, specifically in the Autumn Love variant, is a delicate blend. This EDT perfume spray offers a floral and fruity scent that is both refreshing and enchanting. The top notes of pink pepper, mandarine, and green tea give way to a heart of rose, jasmine, muguet, and lily, before settling into a warm, comforting base of vanilla, musk, patchouli, and amber.

It’s designed to bring out the subtle freshness that lasts throughout a long day, making you feel as though you’re walking through a lush, blooming garden.

Our Thoughts

I just moved cities and for some reason, forgot to pack a single perfume from my collection of ten. Fortunately, there is now a Miniso at the Delhi airport – what a great placement! After my delayed flight I decided to treat myself to this little perfume which is just a bystander until I get my hands on the real deal. And while it did save me in a crunch, buying a perfume from Miniso is only useful if you’re sitting at your house.

While the scent profile is tremendous – light, airy, and super fresh with a hint of elegant pink pepper, the staying power is negative. I have never had a perfume disappear so fast. One auto ride later, the only thing I could smell was my own sweat, no joke! It’s not surprising though, since budget-friendly perfumes usually skip out on staying power. If you’re looking for something to wear at home, or before bed – this is the pick for you.

How To Use It

Spray the Miniso Fairy Garden Eau De Toilette onto your pulse points, mainly your wrists, neck, and behind the ears. You can also spritz it into the air and walk through the mist. A good hack to make it last a little longer is to apply some Vaseline or a thick moisturiser on your pulse points before spraying the perfume.

What It Looks Like

Good To Know
Great Scent Profile: Pink pepper, mandarine, and green tea give way to a heart of rose, jasmine and muguet.
Makes For A Great Gift: Budget friendly.
Does Not Stay On At All: Have to keep reapplying, does not survive any kind of travel.

In Conclusion

Honestly, if you're a fragrance aficionado and are looking to add to your base collection - you can totally layer this with a deeper scent. But otherwise, you should skip it.
