Christmas fragrance on a budget

As head-turning as a pair of bedazzled Jimmy Choo stilettos, Illicit Flower makes a statement. A blend of vibrant notes (like apricot, grapefruit flower, and zest of mandarin) are balanced effortlessly with soft and sensual musk and sandalwood. It’s the perfect pop-in-your-handbag-and-see-where-the-day-takes-you scent, for the woman who need instant glam on the go.  

For the bff with an undeniable sweet tooth, step away from the assorted choccies because Sabrina Carpenter’s fragrance is the sugar fix they didn’t know they needed!

With notes of bergamot, candied ginger, and chocolate marshmallow, this gourmand scent is the ultimate lesson in indulgence (without the over-indulgent designer price!).   

Vera Wang’s eponymous scent, also named Vera Wang, is proof that sophistication over trends, always wins. A bountiful bouquet of Bulgarian rose, gardenia, and floral nectar, blends with a hint of musk, it’s got oh-so chic appeal. Whether you’re shopping for your mum or your partner, this scent is class all the way.
