Description
Beauty Comes From Within is a voluptuous and inviting fragrance designed
to evoke the powerful, life-giving beauty that exists within us all.
Top notes
of sweet lychee, pineapple leaf and tangerine suggest both the vitality of
springtime and nurturing, abundant female energy. Bold, regal middle notes
of creamy gardenia and alluring stargazer lily inspire recognition, and are
ignited by a tender yet captivating accent of white rose that electrifies the
aura like a first kiss. The fragrance’s base note accord of succulent vanilla
flower, meditative sandalwood and warm tonka bean compellingly conveys
both the serene and smoldering facets of a woman’s nature.
The nose behind this fragrance is Sarah Horowitz.

What Comes from Within: Beauty, is one of those hybrid summer fruits that you see at the grocery store, like a pluot, or a donut peach, or a cross between an orange a peach, and a nectarine? Is it a nectarine? …
The opening is like a nice, light and truly ambiguous fruit salad, leaning more on the soft,sweet tropical side than the sparkling citrus. It does not smell true to life, but would work well if Barbie decided to make a meal exclusively from hybrid Summer fruits.
A peach note periodically floats up to my nose while I am typing, and it smells clean like peach shampoo. It remains linear over the course of its development, fading out into a sweet musk in about an hour.
What Comes from Within: Beauty has low sillage and longevity is poor. Definitely something you would wear for your own comfort. Thank you SHP for the pretty sample.
I do not detect much floral action going on here. All of that must be hidden by the fruit. Nothing bad here, but nothing memorable.

Very memorable! CREAMY, sexy in an understated way, mildly sweet and just a teeny hint of powder for a soft touch. Absolutely cozy, comforting and warm- I can imagine my children or man nuzzling into my neck and adoring this scent. It’s certainly not overly sweet, but there is a touch of vanilla. The sandalwood keeps it feeling grown-up. The fruit and flowers are almost non-existent to my nose, except for a barely there touch of gardenia. Smells like sweet, soft, clean skin. I love this one!!

Charming!
The first few brief moments are rather average floral/fruity. Nothing particularly special. But very soon the fragrance becomes lightly sweet (with a slightly sour zing)or sweetly light 😀 or both (but not in a “candy-sweet” way. Very naturally, like a real, ripe fruit) and creamy and playfully sensual. It’s also smooth and easy and skin hugging.
Nice. The only downside is that it doesn’t seem to last on me very long – perhaps 2 hours max.
