Question:
I agree with the last 2 posters, this is a very tricky bottle. I opened it about a dozen or more times, and still everytime I went for it, I forgot how I did it the previous time. Spilled some juice many times too .

Answer:
Sorry, should have read more carefully, my advice wasn't any help with the mini. The mini bottle really sounds like a nightmare.

Answer:
Sorry, I made the same mistake. I did not see mini.

Answer:
I feel so foolish. It is reassuring to know that I am not the only one who had a tough time with this one. I thought for sure old age was setting in. After I cried "defective bottle" the seller instructed me on how to open. Of course, the lid was jammed on so tight, releasing with the force of a blast off to the moon, the juice spilled and I too injured myself. Ouch...
It was all in gist because I was thrilled to finally get to the stuff. I'm still disappointed in my "dementia" and the bottle design. No bottle of fragrance should be encased in a suit of armor. However, I consider the entire experience a learning one. When my mini of Omnia Crystalline arrived, I was a pro at removing the cap. Living, learning and enjoying...

Answer:
Is the mini, the 25ml size? I had considered purchasing the Omnia in this size, but perhaps I won't anymore.

Answer:
Mine is 0.17 size. I would still recommend that you give it a try. Just know that the cap is a strange one. Most caps rest on top and it is obvious that you pull it off. This one wraps around the entire bottle to the bottom. It takes a special technique. You take your thumb and your middle finger and grab the glass part. You then grab the chrome cap with your other hand. It takes a bit of pressure to get it off. Once you become well versed in the removal, it shouldn't be a problem. Go ahead, give it a go...
