 Fixed regressions
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.replace` when the replacement value was explicitly ``None`` when passed in a dictionary to ``to_replace`` also casting other columns to object dtype even when there were no values to replace (:issue:`46634`)
+- Fixed regression in representation of ``dtypes`` attribute of :class:`MultiIndex` (:issue:`46900`)
 - Fixed regression when setting values with :meth:`DataFrame.loc` updating :class:`RangeIndex` when index was set as new column and column was updated afterwards (:issue:`47128`)
 - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.nsmallest` led to wrong results when ``np.nan`` in the sorting column (:issue:`46589`)
 - Fixed regression in :func:`read_fwf` raising ``ValueError`` when ``widths`` was specified with ``usecols`` (:issue:`46580`)
