Which Should You Buy?
Calvin Klein's Sheer Beauty might be called 'Sheer' for its fleeting nature as much as its delicate scent profile. A pleasant, unassuming fruity floral with a sparkling Bellini kick, it's a solid choice for those who prefer their fragrance to be a subtle whisper, though many wish it had more staying power.
A divisive flanker, this version of Mon Guerlain trades the original's depth for a burst of sparkling, juicy freshness. If you're after a clean, modern take on a fruity floral, this is it - but don't expect the classic MG DNA.
