Perfume is one of the easiest Christmas gifts to get right – if you pick the right style. Here's a simple guide to choosing, plus our best picks under £30.
Step 1: What do they wear now?
- Sweet and cosy (vanilla, caramel, cocoa) – try Nº1 Red, Nº18 Mia or Nº28 Escitia.
- Fresh and clean (citrus, sea, green notes) – try Nº42 L'Eau Berlue for her or Nº102 Surf for him.
- Floral (rose, jasmine, white flowers) – try Nº15 Prime or Nº3 Yode.
- Warm and spicy (cinnamon, leather, amber) – try Nº104 Power or Nº124 Complicidad for him.
- Luxury / niche – try Nº30 Oude for her or Nº120 Oud Gem for him.
Step 2: 50ml or 100ml?
50ml is a lovely gift if you're trying a new scent for someone. 100ml is better value if you already know they'll love it.
Step 3: Make it a set
Buy any two perfumes and save 10% – pair a fresh scent for daytime with a warm one for evening, or get his and hers. Popular pairs:
- Day & Night for her: Nº42 L'Eau Berlue + Nº30 Oude
- Day & Night for him: Nº102 Surf + Nº104 Power
- His & Hers: Nº18 Mia + Nº118 Blue Sand
