What is different between 'exquisite' and 'beautiful' ?
How to use those words ? Can we use them with both people and objects ?

Other possible definitions (one of which is mention by mike1988) are:
-pleasing through beauty, fitness, or perfection <an exquisite white blossom>
-acute , intense <exquisite pain>
-having uncommon or esoteric appeal
I think, that given these possible definitions, you could use exquisite in connection to a person. However, I would more often associate with an object or some attribute of a person ("Her hair is exquisite").

'exquisite means extremly beautiful or carefully made.
Also in a formal way - strongly felt, delicate and sensitive.
The room was decorated in exquisite taste.

Yes, as Fede said , you can use them both to describe people and objects, eg an exquisite and beautiful piece of jewellery and the woman's face was a delight to behold, exquisite and beautiful.
