Beauty who's soft on everybody! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peach

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'beauty' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'soft on everybody' is the wordplay.
'soft' becomes 'p' (musical abbreviation for 'piano').
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'everybody' becomes 'each' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'p'+'each'='PEACH'

'who's' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for peach that I've seen before include "Inform on" , "Popular stone-fruit" , "Pinkish-orange colour" , "Exceptionally good thing; pinkish-orange" , "Type of stone fruit" .)
