Treat yourself to one of these fragrance gift sets

Your Guide to Scent Concentrations

Now might be the perfect time to treat yourself to a fragrance gift set. The very best sets of the year have just arrived online and in store and offer incredible value for the price. For a little more than the cost of the fragrance alone you can get a perfumed body lotion, shower gel or deluxe travel spray for free. Even better, the gift boxes are so beautiful you may want to keep and display them.

There is another very good reason to stock up on gift sets now: supply chain and shipping delays. You may have heard of retailers having difficulty getting shipments of products for the holiday season. It’s true that there aren’t any empty containers left in China. Add to the fact that there are fewer raw materials available and it adds up to shortages. Our advice is to shop early when you can ensure you’ll find your favourites.

We’ve handpicked nine of our favourite fragrance gifts sets for her that have arrived in Canada and are available now.
