Words: Emily Venables
Can you hear that? Yup… that’s the faint sound of Jingle Bells playing in stores around the country! Which means it’s time to start thinking about Christmas presents for friends and family, and maybe your own wish list too. If you're on the look out for great gifting ideas (or a little treat for yourself as you've been sooo good this year) take a look at these fabulous choices.
Libre by Yves Saint Laurent
Do you know someone strong and independent and who prefers to live by their own rules?If so, Libre, the latest release from YSL, encapsulates all these favourable characteristics and then some! There’s a bold brightness at the top with fresh orange blossom and airy lavender, which develops into a soft, smooth scent as it dries down on the skin. Modern, intoxicating and an absolute treat!

Donna Born in Roma by Valentino
The latest arrival from Valentino is 100% swoon-worthy! Not only is Donna Born in Roma absolutely spot on when it comes to its scent, but the bottle is absolutely stunning too! So, if there’s someone on your nice list this year that would adore a luxurious scent, packed with extravagant notes like vanilla bourbon and jasmine, then consider them ticked off your list!
Lady Million Empire by Paco Rabanne
The only way life would be sweeter on Christmas morning is if Lady Million Empire was waiting under the Christmas tree for you or a loved one! Beautifully sweet, but not too gourmand, opulent but not too overpowering, feminine but not too girly! Paco Rabanne, you’ve done it again!

Guilty by Gucci

Whether you’re planning on matching this with your new sparkly dress on NYE or you have a friend that is the life and soul of the party, this is perfectly suited to you both! It’s un-apologetically sexy and confident with notes of peach, patchouli, mandarin, pink pepper and amber. Merry Spritz-Mas indeed!
