Stocking Stuffer Scents
Lush Cocktail Solid Perfume, $14 Think French 1930′s perfumeries and that’s what you’ll get with this solid fragrance. It’s packed with floral essential oils like ylang ylang, rose, and jasmine (yum!). Simply lovely for day or evening.
Stella McCartney Solid Perfume Necklace, $36 This is a two-fer: You get a Stella-designed necklace to add panache to any outfit and a fresh rose/sophisticated amber scent to entice with. Plus, since it’s around your neck you can add more anytime you’d like.
Philosophy Amazing Grace Fragrance Duo, $30 I’m a huge fan of Philosophy Amazing Grace Bath & Shower Gel and am beyond happy that the same scent is available in a rollerball collection. It comes as a set so you can be fully stocked (or give one to a friend.) Plus, the rollerball packaging eliminates the risk of spills. Brilliant.
