Whether it’s Christmas, a birthday, or just a regular calendar day, there’s nothing quite like opening a new bottle of perfume. Just imagine it: ripping open the luxurious box, taking in the initial aroma, and carefully placing the decorative bottle onto your vanity. Of course, unboxing a skincare set or a brand new pouch of makeup brushes is equally as exciting, but fragrance makes for a perfect gift—especially for any friends or family who are looking to expand their palette.
That being said, fragrances are super personal and can be tricky gifts to give, which is why we’ve rounded up the best options to choose from. Each one is unique from composition to packaging. Whether you are looking for something woodsy and warm or something bright and floral to gift, we’ve got you covered with 24 different options from brands like Dior, Jo Malone, and Hermès.
