Best 2020 gifts according to your recipient

“What on earth can I buy them for Christmas?”

LES SENTEURS HAS ALL THE ANSWERS!

Perfume and perfumed accessories are the very best and glamorous of gifts, infallibly arousing feelings of joyous anticipation and excitement.

Even before the nose is captivated, the eye is entranced by a mouth-watering visual banquet. The elegant bottles which are miniature works of art in themselves; the glorious and dramatic packaging; the excitement of the tiny flacon or exquisite box which may contain absolutely anything - Pandora’s casket, Aladdin‘s lamp, the magic walnut shell holding the moon and stars!

Scent is magically timeless in its ability to become an integral part of a person’s dreams; to arouse and satisfy every emotion and longing. 

At Les Senteurs we have the perfect gift for everyone. We make choosing a pleasure, not a chore. Your present problems will be transformed into a party of pleasure at a one-stop shopping destination.

Our super-skilled, friendly and sensitive staff are always happy to guide you in selecting a perfume for a loved one; showing you how to think yourself into a friend’s olfactory personality, so that the whole experience turns into a diverting and revelatory Christmas adventure. 

You won’t go wrong if you always remember to match the fragrance to the friend! Have a little think about the recipient’s character and choose a scent that plays to her strengths, reflects his personality and amplifies her charms: a generous scent for a generous individual. And so forth.

To get you thinking and planning right away, here’s our luscious list of failsafe gifts for your nearest and dearest!

 

Les Senteurs Christmas

 

For Father

Honour your papa with something a little sumptuous this year.

Flatter his ego with a Frederic Malle Monsieur cologne; or enable him to fragrance his own peaceful space with an Antique Library scented candle. For the traditional pater familias you can’t go wrong with Caron’s Pour Un Homme, a star performer since 1934; while Olverum's aromatic Bath Oil will soothe his aching limbs and head at the end of a long day. And for his stocking...how about an impeccably boxed triple-milled Aventus soap? This accessorises the now legendary Aventus Millesime scent which has a life and style all of its own. Sensational!

 

For Mother

Mothers deserve very special handling at Christmas. Indulge your best girl with Portrait of a Lady - you could maybe make up a delicious gift set of products including Parfum, Body Butter and even the glorious Hair Mist. A Bluebell Candle will encourage Mum with the promise of Spring; and here’s a luxury Floris hand treatment cream to soothe her busy hands. Finally, how about the nostalgic treat of bath salts? Olverum's Bath Salts are formulated to revitalise skin, relax the mind and aid restful sleep.

 

For Male Partner 

Tickle his fancy with a bottle of French Lover, Ozkan or B683: three exceedingly suave, sexy and sophisticated scents. But be careful! They’ll make him universally irresistible. A Santal Noir  candle should broaden his outlook while a tube of Aventus Aftershave Balm will keep his cheeks smooth, supple and kissable.

For Female Partner

A bottle of Wonder of You would seem a tactful and romantic choice; paired perhaps with one of Les Indemodables perfumes - let’s say, the bewitching Iris Perle for a pearl among women. Then something sensual for the bathing ritual: À La Rose Shower Cream with the Body Oil to match. A fresh dewy rose fragrance to flatter and enhance a natural beauty. Lastly, a little something for the Christmas table gift. Let’s light up the smouldering tropical splendour of a Robbie Honey Tuberose Candle - tuberose being by way of being one of Nature’s most powerful aphrodisiacs, don’t you know!

 

For Daughter/Sister

Every girl longs for a large bottle of Baccarat Rouge 540: its mysterious soft, voluptuous fragrance has become a cult: and now there’s a candle to match, besides a Hair Mist & assorted luxurious body range. The lady also loves the creamy gourmand sweetness of Love and Crime. Let’s find a pretty candle to light her bedroom: Rose Blanche by Mizensir would complete the ambience perfectly.

For Son/Brother

Every young man will love the optimistic energy and zing of Zeste de Gingembre. Or treat him to the escapist exhilaration of Tauer’s L’Air Du Desert Marocain, that ultra-niche scent that has captivated an entire generation. Musc Ravageur would add a further dash of seasonal spice. So, too, would the glow of a candle such as smoky Bois Du Tibet or sensual brooding Cuir et Feu. And remember, nowadays it’s not just girls who use and need hand cream: Floris Cefiro is efficient and effective. Ideal for the working boy: comes in a tube to pop in his pocket!

 

For Perfume/Beauty

Teint de Neige Sparkling Body Gel is amusing and effective, making you shimmer like a Christmas fairy from head to toe. There is a very wide range of Bath & Body products in this seductive powdery floral fragrance. We urgently recommend Carnal Flower Body Wash and Body Butter for those who love to immerse themselves in the odour of fresh creamy tuberose, the scent of desire. Maison Francis Kurkdjian are great for assorted luxury shower creams and body lotions, all exceptionally beautifully packaged. Lastly, here’s a sparkling old favourite for dazzling young ladies: a flacon of Love in White Shower Gel will earn you many Brownie points! 

 

For Niche

Exclusivity is the name of the Les Senteurs game! We have rare scents sourced and curated from three continents including a wide selection from British Houses. Any niche connoisseur will go wild for a bottle of that farouche masterpiece Knize Ten; or for one of the exotic Papillon range whose inspirations range from cats’ silky fur to ancient Egyptian tombs. Elegant Isabey brings back glamorous memories of the 1920s; while Ex Idolo offers one of the finest and wearable oud fragrances on the market. And - a final fitting climax to the roster of excellence - a discreet reminder that we are the official and sole U.K. stockist for the perfumes of niche superstar Andy Tauer!
