They say that a little of what you fancy does you good, and there’s something rather lovely about a beautifully presented selection of mini treats.
Choosing a set of miniatures is a great way of exploring a new brand, getting a feel for the different formulas and scents before splashing big bucks on full-size versions. There’s definitely something to be said for a decent miniature set.
