When it comes to the best perfumes on the market, there's no denying that certain designers know exactly what they're doing. From Tom Ford's collection of expensive-smelling fragrances to Chanel's iconic scents and Dior's new iterations of classic scents, I've tried my fair share over the years. However, one fashion house whose fragrances I'm not as familiar with is Miu Miu.

Don't get me wrong, I've been following this cool-girl-approved brand in the fashion space for quite some time, but when it comes to its popular fragrances, I'm a total novice. So, when I heard that Miu Miu was launching a brand-new perfume, Miutine, this August, I was eager to get my hands on it and try it out for myself.

Luckily for me, the Miu Miu gods answered, and I was able to test the scent out weeks before the launch date. Of course, I had to call upon the widerBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing UK beauty team to get their thoughts, too, so we've all been busy testing the fragrance. Like any good beauty editor, I wanted to go deeper than just what the perfume smelled like, and asked each team member to share where they've been wearing the scent, and how the scent has been making them feel. In my opinion, your favourite perfume is an extension of your personality, so keep on scrolling...

Miu Miu Miutine Perfume Review

Brittany Davy, Beauty Editorial Assistant

"I’m a big fan of gourmand fragrances, so when I first read about Miu Miu’s Miutine perfume, I knew that I would become a fan," says Brittany. "I love how the patchouli and oak moss ground the juicier notes in the scent, making it feel just that little bit more grown-up."

"Hints of brown sugar accord and bourbon vanilla extract initially led me to believe that it was a fragrance more suited to the evening, but it quickly found itself a permanent home in my work bag. I love how confident this perfume makes me feel, whether I’m in the office or on my way to a work event. Not to mention the bottle is genuinely one of the prettiest perfume bottles I’ve ever seen, perfectly blurring the lines between sophisticated and cool. If you love a mood-boosting, empowering scent, this is definitely one to try."

Grace Lindsay,Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing UK Junior Beauty Editor

"Created to capture the youthful spirit of the Miu Miu woman, this fragrance is bursting with flirtatious energy, which is why it's become my go-to scent for date night. At first, it presents itself as a sweet, light-hearted, delicate fragrance, with shimmering accords of wild strawberry and brown sugar that steal your attention on the very first spritz. However, as time goes on, a whisper of patchouli reveals a more sophisticated side that, although unexpected, keeps you hooked late into the evening."

"The bottle, a tribute to the iconic Miu Miu Matelassé leather, is as sexy as the scent itself, in a warm chestnut colour that feels trendy and timeless all at the same time. Throwing this into my clutch bag feels like the ultimate fashion statement, and makes me feel like my most feminine self as I embark on a night of spontaneity."

Eleanor Vousden,Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing UK Beauty Editor

"On the weekend, I like a fragrance that can seamlessly take me from my morning reformer Pilates class to a post-workout brunch with friends. And so Miu Miu’s new Miutine scent has become a new Sunday morning favourite," says Eleanor. "It’s a fruity-floral that is sweet—but not overpowering—it’s the ideal transitional perfume for this time of year as we see out the last days of summer and welcome in golden, autumnal days (and start drip-feeding in autumn perfumes as a result)."

"I have a sweet tooth, so the addition of brown sugar and a swirl of vanilla fixes my craving for sweetness as we lean into the shorter evenings. Think of it as a delicate drizzle of maple syrup over a serving of strawberry French toast. It's light enough to wear throughout the day thanks to its floral notes of gardenia, rose and jasmine. But it's the drydown of the scent that might be my favourite part of all, which calls upon woody notes of oakmoss and patchouli that feel like a warm embrace on the skin and long linger on my suede jacket later into the afternoon."
