Mhhhh...bähhh!!!!
Mhhh, vanilla, caramel, my gourmand heart is doing somersaults!!! And then the price, a dream. So off to the big R and diligently spritzed on my wrist. In bright anticipation, I held my nose to it uuuuund bähhhhh!!!!, what are those scent molecules playing at?! Where is my vanilla? I was promised caramel... Boohoo, cruel world!
I stepped outside to catch my breath and ate a Kinder chocolate while rereading the reviews here. I buried my nose again excessively into my wrist... No, nothing, I smell undefinable disgusting water, sweet, cheap, even for the price it's an imposition (okay, maybe a bit harsh but I'm just disappointed). I have nothing against inexpensive fragrances, on the contrary, I own quite a few myself.
A week later, I had to change trains at Frankfurt Central Station and the typical urinous scent cloud wafted around me. A woman or a man, I don't know, was trudging in front of me and pulled out a small pink bottle from their jacket pocket... So I'm out.

Yes, that's how we used to run around...
Have you ever looked at old school photos and thought, "I looked like THAT?!" Went through a phase that is now rather embarrassing in terms of styling? Yes, the minis generally fit into that category quite well, as they were often quite popular during the school years of those now in their twenties. Mousse makeup that suited almost no one and Ed Hardy as well, and with that, hardly anyone would dare to leave the house anymore. So how does Mini Pink fare?

I myself owned Mini Love and Mini Sexy at 12. I only became aware of Mini Pink through Parfumo. Caramel, vanilla, and heliotrope sounded tempting, and eventually, the bottle was heavily discounted, so why not... Something affordable is always suitable for home fragrance. Still, it's hard to overlook the assumption that this perfume is more for teenagers. Why? Because during the test, I felt transported back a decade in time!

Mini Pink is, like a teenager, a bit rebellious, perhaps not exactly stylish, but definitely unique. The scent notes suggest a caramel candy, yet in reality, you get something quite different. It's definitely sweet; between vanilla and heliotrope, there's a note that pushes itself to the forefront for me, which isn't even listed... Maybe I'm also anosmic, but I think I can perceive lavender. Yes, just a teenager wanting to be different from the others but still wanting to be liked by peers. But does that make the perfume good?

Certainly, it’s not a treasure in the collection and it doesn’t smell extremely high-quality either. On the other hand, at such a price, it doesn't really make sense to complain about quality and performance. Because of the associations I have when spraying it, I can't give it a bad rating. Maybe you wouldn't necessarily consider Mini Pink as an everyday scent, but if you ever feel the need to be transported back to a time when you read Bravo and slathered yourself in strawberry lip gloss, it’s definitely worth a thought.

Old memories :)
I have known this scent since my childhood because my mother always wore it back then. I really liked this fragrance on her because it simply smelled soooo beautiful like sweets. I also received this perfume about two years ago as a gift from my aunt, as part of a fragrance set with body lotion and this wonderful scent included. I was extremely happy about it because it was tied to very nice childhood memories. I always took this scent with me to school because it hardly took up space and was very light to carry.

Before class, I would always spray two spritzes of it, and after school again, because I could never get enough of this scent ;) The boys at my school thought the fragrance was really great back then, as they always asked every girl who smelled so good like sweets and what kind of perfume it was ;D Even today, I still know some who still wear this scent.

A long time passed, and I forgot about this scent because I finally found the fragrance that truly suits me and that I love immensely. Until I wanted to empty my old school bag, as I no longer need it, I found this scent again in my school bag and was surprised when I held it in my hand... The color of the liquid had changed a bit, but to be honest, that bothers me less now since it's nothing new with fragrances. Of course, I still wanted to know if it was still good, meaning if I could still wear it. I lightly sprayed it on my sweater because I wasn't exactly sure about spraying it on my skin. I was surprised that the scent hadn't changed at all, neither in smell nor in longevity. It still smells sooo good like vanilla and caramel (again, it's a matter of taste whether you want to smell like sweets). I could smell this fragrance all day long :)) I always find it lovely that you can have a beautiful and good connection, as well as memories, with scents; this fragrance simply puts me in a good mood and makes me crave something sweet ;D

Flower Power
At the moment, fragrances are a bit of a mixed bag. The selection in drugstores is limited and testing often isn’t possible. However, since I’m always on the lookout for new scents, I don’t hesitate to check out the discounted items. I choose based on my nose and not the price.

This week, at nose level in a well-known discount store, I found a display of UdV fragrances, which are usually only available at DM and Rossmann and the like. By the way, at a bargain price. So all four fragrances had to go into the cart and were happily taken to the checkout between salad and lemons.

So far, I haven’t really gotten along with UdV fragrances. But the company has improved and can compete with expensive scents. This has been the case for about a year now.

Without testing and without reservations, I sprayed Mini Pink at home. I took a trip down memory lane to my youth, which was in the 70s. The beginning is floral with something fresh in it, but at the same time a hint of vanilla. That was Heliotrope. Then I smelled almost everything that shouldn’t be there, like patchouli and cedar, but rounded off by sandalwood for the finish. Together, it’s something like incense sticks and the slightly masculine scent blend typical of the 70s. Powdery but not sweet like candy, that’s the rest. Pure Flower Power.

For me, it’s memories, and I categorize the scent as a lighter, yet somewhat robust oriental. I like it, and I will wear it.

Longevity is extremely long, over six hours, and it can still be smelled on the skin for a long time afterward.

The bottle is nothing special, but practical for a handbag. For the price of 3.30 euros, I got more than just a good fragrance.

However, anyone who decides to wear this should have confidence, as it stands out from the crowd. It is by no means discreet, but also not too loud. I would advise against it for teenagers.

the "cheap" oriental
there's not much to say about this little fragrance, just a brief comment on the small scent for the small price (around €4)

in my experience, it is mostly worn by Southern European women (not meant in a derogatory way), but they often prefer the heavier, sweeter (almost syrupy) scent...

it is indeed somewhat oriental and heavy, and really very sweet... not much fruitiness, with musk and vanilla dominating...

so it's good for a quick outing, and if you don't want to "waste" a noble drop, it's quite a wearable companion.

Such a beautiful caramel scent :) I think it works all the time, especially now in the cold season - perfect! For a small budget, why not?

A scent that reminds me of something different every time I try it. Sometimes makeup, sometimes incense sticks, then again a Christmas market. I like it!

A very sweet, light, and nice scent for little money. So why not? ;)

"Did you light incense sticks?" The question confused me. It was just a mini spray on my wrist. But my husband is right. Not for me.

Mini Candy would be more fitting. The first half hour is hard to bear, then it gets better. Above average H&S. For the young at heart.

What was my nose doing in dm and Rossmann smelling?! It really stinks, a very sharp/penetrating scent that’s indescribable to my nose.
