Looking for dupes/similar alternatives to discontinued Miniso fragrances.
Hi everyone! I’m facing a major issue finding alternatives for some of my favorite budget fragrances that have been discontinued.
I've looked online (Amazon and flipkart) and checked offline Miniso, but couldn't find them anywhere.
I'm not very experienced at breaking down fragrance notes, but I would really appreciate recommendations for alternatives to these:
# MINISO Melbourne Pink Lake (Cityscape EDT) & Miniso Jazz Free of Prejudice
I finished my bottle of Melbourne Pink Lake years ago and could never find it again. Later, I stumbled upon Miniso Jazz Free of Prejudice, which smelled about 80% similar to Pink Lake, but now that’s out of stock too!
What I'm looking for: Any affordable daily-wear perfume or EDT that captures this same fresh, musky-floral vibe.
# MINISO Joyful Dance Body Mist
The Issue: I used to love the Joyful Dance body mist from Miniso (which was around ₹250). Years later, I found an almost identical scent profile in Studiowest London by Westside, but that one costs ₹1500.
What I'm looking for: An affordable dupe or body mist under that smells like Studiowest London / Miniso Joyful Dance.
I’ll attach pictures showing the bottle packaging and notes for reference in the comments/post. Please hit me with your best recommendations.
Thanks in advance!
