How To Give The Perfect Gift
Depending on who you are buying for, how to give the perfect gift is almost as important as what present to provide. There’s much to be said about what you purchase for that person. Giving money, especially to young children, has often been deemed a lazy option, as no real thought has gone into the purchase.
After all, children like to open presents. They like the idea of unwrapping a box or a parcel.
Even as we age, receiving something we can open is always lovely. Receiving an envelope with money is almost a quick way out. As adults, sometimes giving cash is the only option, especially when that person is challenging to buy for or has no idea what they would like.
Teenagers sometimes prefer to have money because they can buy what they like rather than what Nan and Grandad think they like. Money is great for them to put towards something that they want.
For many years, I’ve received money as a present from certain family members, especially when my birthday is close to Christmas. It can be hard to find two present ideas when there is a birthday to buy for, too.

Navigating the Challenges of Gift Giving as We Age: Finding the Perfect Present in a Sea of Gift Sets
As we age, knowing what to buy can become more challenging. People’s tastes have changed over the years; they have become more fussy, and what they may have liked ten years ago may be less relevant now. Sure enough, the gift sets appear with body showers, soap, face scrub, etc., which only appear at Christmas time.
These are the kinds of sets that many people will reach for because they simply have no idea what else to purchase. Everyone will use a body spray, body wash, and a bar of soap.
It’s almost classed as an easy option. Whichever shop you go into, whether a supermarket or a beauty store, there will always be a selection of gift boxes containing body scents. They are usually reasonably priced, too, so this is another factor that people go for when buying a gift for someone.
Nowadays, I find myself trying to find more unique presents. It’s always good to go with the right mindset when present shopping. If you had the item given to you as a gift, would you like it?
So many times, when we go gift shopping, we pick up an item that we think would be suitable and question whether we would like it. If we have any doubt, we place it back on the shelf.
Sometimes we’ve walked out of the shop and returned half an hour later. Our minds have been made up.
The Art of Gifting Perfume: How to Choose the Perfect Fragrance for Your Loved Ones
It’s almost as though people wait until Christmas to buy perfume, either for themselves or someone else. Some will wait for special offers on designer fragrances, and we don’t blame them for that. After all, designer perfume can be expensive, depending on which bottle you purchase and the celebrity behind the brand.
When buying perfume as a gift, we must ensure it is a fragrance the person wears. Asking the person what perfume they like can sometimes spoil the surprise. Interestingly, not many people think of buying a set of perfume samples as a gift.
This would be an excellent gift for both men and women. If you had a rough idea of what type of fragrance they usually wear, you could purchase a set with similar fragrance notes without buying a large bottle of perfume that they perhaps will never wear. They’ll get to try all the samples and decide which one suits them best.
Advent calendars
A few years ago, FM Cosmetics brought out perfume advent calendars for men and women. I decided to purchase one for myself.
Unlike traditional calendars that contain chocolate, these include 24 fragrance sample bottles. Behind window number 25 was a 50 ml bottle of perfume.
Each day, I had the opportunity to try a different fragrance. Some were more favourable than others, so I had the chance to try a different fragrance from what I would normally wear.
If perfume is too challenging to buy for someone because they perhaps have an expensive taste, then FM, do you have around 200 fragrances for both men and women and a unisex range if you like sharing a bottle? They have similar scents to the fragrance wheel and are a more affordable option for buying a personal gift.

Beyond the Easy Options: Thoughtful Gift Giving in the Age of Small Businesses and Personalization
Alongside buying the perfect gift, it’s also very much the thought behind it that counts. Similar to giving money as a present, a gift set can often be seen as the easy option when you can’t find anything else suitable. It’s almost like buying socks and pants.
With so many small businesses online, we aren’t short of ideas and inspiration. There are gifts to suit any budget, big or small, and many can be personalised, too, which is a lovely idea. One product I have found to be of most use, even though it’s effortless, is a set of hand creams.
Shea butter hand cream on eBay
During the winter months, our hands get damaged from the cold and bitter months, and many suffer from dry and chapped hands. A present that is much appreciated and one that can be used daily is always a present that is much appreciated. Fortunately, there are many ideas for purchasing goods for both men and women.
So, let’s look at some perfect gift ideas with scents.

Hoover Fragrances
Hoover fragrances were never mentioned to me when I was young. Even though the vacuum cleaner was always being used, I never remember it smelling of perfume.
I always lifted my feet so that my mum could hoover underneath. We had a dog who didn’t particularly malt its fur, although the vacuum was used regularly to eliminate the smallest amount of pet hair. As an adult, I now see the need to plug in electrical items, as it gives a feeling of completeness that the house is clean.
Carpet freshener
In the 1970s, I remember a product called Shake ‘N’ Vac. You shook carpet powder all over the floor and left it to soak for a few minutes before hoovering it up.
With a very catchy song to its advert and the lady dancing with the vacuum cleaner as she cleaned the carpet, the TV advert was a huge hit alone and ended up being a top-selling product to have in the kitchen cupboard.
Perhaps the only downside was that it was very powdery, so you had to ensure every bit of power was hoovered up if you had pets or small children playing on the carpet. This product left the room with a lovely fragrance, and it would be used maybe once a week to keep the carpets and the room smelling fresh.
They were still affordable back then and now come in several scents. Whilst we can use candles, fragrance sticks and incense burners to give the home a scented fragrance, what about the vacuum cleaner?

Vac Disc Vacuum Cleaner Air Freshener Discs Hoover Freshener any vacuum cleaner
It’s all very well having the rooms in the home smelling lovely, but if the vacuum cleaner smells stale from household odours such as old food crumbs from the floor or pet hair that’s been hoovered up daily, it really can start to smell horrid. As soon as you switch on a smelling hoover, the whole room smells stale, and once it lingers, there’s no getting rid of it.
Fast-forward 30 years, and we now see a new product for making the room smell fresh and clean. Hoover filter pads are full of fragrances that sit in the dust bags by the filter. They keep the vacuum cleaner smelling fresh and leave a wonderful scent in every room you clean.

The benefits of using Hoover fragrances
- Long-lasting—depending on where you purchase, a vacuum filter scent can last 8-12 weeks.
- Affordable- FM Cosmetics sells a pack of 2 for £4.90. They smell similar to designer fragrances, so your vacuum can smell as gorgeous as your perfume.
- Variety of Scents: Vacuum fragrances come in various scents, ranging from floral and citrus to more neutral or clean scents. Some popular choices include lavender, citrus, eucalyptus, and fresh linen.
- Easy to Use: Most vacuum fragrances are easy to use. They may come in pre-measured packs or containers that can be easily added to the vacuum cleaner.
- Compatibility: Many vacuum fragrances are designed to be compatible with various types and brands of vacuum cleaners. However, checking the product specifications to ensure compatibility with your specific vacuum model is essential.
- Benefits: The primary benefit of vacuum fragrances is that they help mask any unpleasant odours that may be present during the vacuuming process. Additionally, they leave a fresh scent in the air, making the cleaning experience more enjoyable.
- Caution: Some individuals may be sensitive or allergic to certain fragrances, so it’s essential to be mindful of potential reactions. If you or anyone in your household has sensitivities, it’s advisable to choose a hypoallergenic scent.
- Availability: Vacuum fragrances are often available in stores that sell vacuum cleaners and accessories. They may also be purchased online through various retailers. While vacuum fragrances can enhance the cleaning experience, regular maintenance of the vacuum cleaner, including cleaning filters and emptying dustbins, is crucial to ensuring optimal performance and preventing unpleasant odours from the vacuum itself.
- Child and Pet-Friendly Options: If you have children or pets, you might want to consider vacuum fragrances specifically labelled as child—and pet-friendly. These formulations are often milder and safer for sensitive individuals.
- Allergen Control: Besides providing a pleasant scent, some vacuum fragrances are designed to help control allergens. They may include anti-allergen properties that can benefit individuals with allergies or asthma.
Unless you have a vacuum cleaner that you can wash the base out regularly, such as a Dyson that doesn’t have a filter bag, a fragrance pad is a way to keep your home and vacuum smelling fresh and odour-free.
Typically, you will get an instant fragrance when you switch on the vacuum cleaner, so you know it’s doing the job.
If you love perfume and would like a matching scent for your vacuum cleaner, visit our online shop. We have a selection of twin-pack filters to choose from.
My vacuum cleaner consistently uses an FM Hoover fragrance pad, even though I no longer have pets. Although carpets can still develop a stale and unpleasant smell, using a fragrance pad eliminates the worry of unpleasant odours lingering on my carpet.

Scented Wax Melts
Who doesn’t love scented wax melts? There are so many options for filling the home with fragrances.
Candles, fragrance sticks, canned air fresheners, and incense burners—all offer a variety of choices. It all comes down to personal preference when selecting the right scent product for an individual. But what exactly are scented wax melts? Wax melts are small pieces of scented wax. Many are available on the market today, and some are even hand-made, allowing you to purchase unique ones for a special gift.

Working with a perfume company has introduced a range of new products to our business. The latest addition is wax melts inspired by your favourite fragrances. Enjoying a delightful scent in your home can become a regular occurrence, especially for pet owners or smokers.
Stale smells, including those from food, often linger longer than desired in our homes. These smells prompt many of us to reach for air fresheners, light candles, or place reed diffusers around our homes to emanate a delicate scent.

Wax melts can offer a more budget-friendly alternative to candles. They often have a longer lifespan than candles, and as they melt in the burner, they release a delightful fragrance that lingers in the room.
Wax melts absorb heat more slowly than candles, preventing the fragrance from burning or overheating, making them a safer option for the environment.
However, wax melts should not be left unattended like any lit fragrance, including candles or reed diffusers. Some varieties require a tea light candle to melt the wax, and the resulting liquid can be very high, posing a risk of burning the skin or damaging surfaces.
If you have pets or small children, exercise caution when using wax melts. Fragrance sticks may be a safer option if you tend to forget whether you lit them. Alternatively, you can opt for a plug-in wax melt for added safety.

Take a look at some wax melt burners on eBay.
When using wax melts that release a pleasant aroma, a home can be cosy and comforting. However, it’s advisable to avoid inexpensive wax melts containing paraffin, especially for those with asthma or lung issues.
Big companies often use paraffin wax due to its cost-effectiveness in mass production. However, burning paraffin fills the air with potentially toxic chemicals, making it a less desirable option. Additionally, there may be a noticeable strong wax smell when burning.
Opting for candles and wax melts made with natural wax is a more environmentally friendly choice. Although they may come at a higher price, they burn slower and last much longer, making them a worthwhile investment. If you’ve ever experienced a back massage at a health and fitness retreat, you might have noticed the popularity of wax melts—they create a serene atmosphere, enhancing relaxation.
Benefits of using wax melts over candles
- Wax melts are long-lasting
- Safe to use
- Longer burning time
- Safer for the home and environment
- Leave a delicate fragrance
- Elegant and stylish in any room
- No black soot on the walls or furniture
- Set the mood for a relaxing evening

Fragrance Sticks
Christmas is the perfect time to consider purchasing fragrance sticks, also known as reed diffusers. In the days when candles and spray can air fresheners were the go-to choices for creating a scented room, the past few years have seen the introduction of fragrance sticks.

A similar product from a few years ago was the incense burner sticks. While these were great for those who didn’t mind the room filling with smoke and had a suitable tray to catch the burnt ashes, they could be messy without the correct tray.
I found that the trays available for incense sticks were often not wide enough to catch all the ash that fell. It’s not always an ideal choice for those with allergies to strongly scented smells, as some scents can be overpowering, especially in smaller rooms.
50% Off Large DiffusersWhile incense sticks quickly burst with fragrance, they usually burn for about an hour, meaning you might use several to create a pleasant ambience for an evening with friends.
In contrast, fragrance sticks sit in scented oil without being lit, making them a much safer option and a forward-thinking way to introduce a fresh, brand-new vibe into your home.
Instant room fragrance but can be messy with the ash falling Fragrance sticks
These consist of a glass container that holds the oil and around 4-8 sticks, depending on the size purchased. These sticks are made of porous wood, allowing the fragrance to soak in and diffuse in the air. They can be placed anywhere in the home and left without worry of a naked flame or ashes dropping off the end of the stick.
The fragrance sticks typically last much longer than incense sticks, sometimes for weeks or even months, depending on the type you purchase and the strength of the scent. There’s also no added worry that you’ve left the house for work and a candle or incense stick is still burning away.
During Christmas time, the risk of house fires increases due to candles being lit and left unattended. Save the Christmas candles when everyone is home, enjoying the festive season.
The festive season is always a popular time for using scented candles Some will come with several sticks depending on which size is purchased Related Article: Pillow Mist Spray Review
Using a reed diffuser is a great alternative when you like a consistent scent in every room that doesn’t require any safety precautions. Many come in elegant bottles that add a cosy touch to any home. Since they are a safer option than candles or incense burners, they are safe to place anywhere within the home.
Why buy more than one?
Want a different fragrance in every room? There’s no reason why you can’t have a unique scent for each room in your home. With a delicate fragrance that diffuses gently, there’s no worry that all the scents will mingle together and produce a mixed concoction.
Brighten up your home with a room diffuser Tips for your fragrance sticks
■ Number One: When using fragrance sticks, ensure that the sticks are not resting on your wallpaper or any material. The oil can stain anything it comes into contact with, so keep them away from curtains or wallpaper.
■ Number Two: To refresh the fragrance in the room, turn the sticks upside down once a week. Doing this helps the oil diffuse a fresh burst of scent.
■ Number Three: Extend the life of your room fragrance by using new, unscented sticks periodically.

Yankee Scented Candles Review
Not many of us don’t like candles, especially Yankee-scented candles. I first noticed these wonderful creations several years ago at my local garden centre at Christmas. Visiting a garden centre is always a delightful place to visit during the festive season, with its tree ornaments, garlands and unique gifts.
Head over to the candle section, and you’ll find shelves full from floor to ceiling with various colours, styles, and gorgeous-smelling scents. You can smell the fragrances as soon as you walk through the door. With so many to choose from, the decision often becomes difficult.
Which candle to choose
When it comes to candles, a classy design is just as crucial as a gorgeous fragrance. After all, candles are on show in our homes, so it’s good to go for one that looks elegant and homely. The Yankee will overstretch the budget if you’re looking for cheap candles.
We get what we pay for, so I believe in spending a little more to have a better quality product that will last. Tea light candles are often cheap to purchase whenever they are on sale, which is pretty much all year round.
Some will last reasonably well and have excellent burning time, but some may not last as long or burn correctly. The Yankee candle comes in three different sizes, so if the price of a large one is more than you’re prepared to pay, the smaller options are great, too. Having a good burn time for all three-size jars makes the home smell gorgeous, regardless of the season or reason for purchasing them.
Why are Yankee candles so expensive?
From experience, Yankee candles are more expensive when purchased from small businesses or gift shops. The smaller companies will often have a higher price tag, so it pays to shop around before you buy. Yankee candles burn more evenly than some on the market; therefore, the price reflects this quality.
As it’s often said, we get what we pay for, and I feel that spending a little more for a candle that will last a long time and burn evenly is something that every home needs. It also needs to burn safely. Always pay special attention to candles when lit.
Although Yankee candles burn safely inside their jars, please don’t leave them unattended or around small children who could knock them over or scald themselves. There’s something about burning candles at home that gives a sense of warmth, calmness, and a wintry feel once the curtains are closed for the evening. They can also be used all year round, not just for cosy nights. Remember to prep your candle before it’s first lit.
- History: Yankee Candle was founded in 1969 by Mike Kittredge in South Hadley, Massachusetts. The company started as a small operation, with Kittredge initially making candles as a gift for his mother.
- Product Range: Yankee Candle offers various scented candles in different sizes and styles. Their product line includes jar candles, pillar candles, tea lights, wax melts, and more.
- Fragrance Variety: One of Yankee Candles’ notable features is its extensive variety of fragrances. It produces floral, fruity, fresh, festive, and seasonal scents. Some of its popular scents include “Vanilla Cupcake,” “Clean Cotton,” and “Autumn Leaves.”
- Seasonal Collections: Yankee Candle regularly introduces seasonal collections, aligning with holidays and changing seasons, including special editions for Christmas, Halloween, and other festive occasions. Many homes will have a Yankee Candle burning at Christmas.
- Jar Candles: The Yankee Candle jar candles are particularly iconic. They come in various sizes, with the large jars being trendy. The jars often feature distinctive labels and lids.
- Accessories: Yankee Candle offers a range of accessories, such as candle holders, wax warmers, and various decorative items, to complement its products.
- International Presence: Yankee Candle has expanded its presence globally over the years. Its products are available in many countries, making it a widely recognized brand in the home fragrance industry.
- Personalization: Some Yankee Candle stores offer personalized candle labels, allowing customers to create custom candles for special occasions or as gifts.
- Community Engagement: Yankee Candle has been involved in various community and charitable initiatives. They have also collaborated with charities to create unique edition candles to support causes.
- Online Presence: Yankee Candle has a solid online presence, allowing customers to browse and purchase products through their website.

Yankee candles are available on eBay.
Sizes range from small, medium and large
The large jar has a burn time of up to 150 hours
Medium jar- up to 75 hours
Small jar- up to 30 hours
My rating: 9 out of 10
Once you’ve used your candle and it’s burned away, it’s a great idea to reuse the jar. Dress it up or pop a tea light at the bottom. The jars are very sturdy, and they come in several fragrances. The jars also come with a lid, an excellent way of holding onto the scent when the candle is not lit. If you’re prone to headaches around strong fragrances, try to choose the more delicate scents. Some winter scents can be a little overpowering if they’re sat in a small room in the home.

FM Perfume No.900 Review
FM Perfume No. 900 Review: Perfumes often have distinct scents for women and men, but many fragrances are unisex. When I first learned about unisex fragrances, it got me thinking. How can a fragrance be suitable for men and women?
Women can get away with wearing a more masculine scent, similar to male clothing. However, females—especially the younger generation — wear trousers and sports jumpers very much.
It’s undoubtedly more difficult for a man to wear a female-scented fragrance. Many ladies’ scents are often fruity and flowery. These kinds aren’t always suitable for males.
A creation made for both men and women
Perfume manufacturers had to come up with a way to create a fragrance that was suitable for both. A neutral balance and a mixture of perfume scents would be ideal for both genders.
We must remember that the initial top notes of a fragrance don’t determine what fragrance is on the skin throughout the day.
So, when we spray perfume, the top note is our initial smell, followed by the middle notes and, lastly, the base notes.
Try a scent on the skin and let it settle for a while to get an authentic smell. Many women prefer their partner’s fragrance to their own, which is true if they choose a more spicy scent, like woody or chypre notes.
Many women prefer their partner’s fragrance to their own, especially if they choose a more spicy scent, such as woody or chypre notes.

Type: fascinating, unique, charming cherry
Head notes: black cherry, cherry liqueur, bitter almonds

FM perfume no.900 review
FM perfume no.900 is part of the wood family, which gives a real sense of oriental, floral, and fruity notes.
With its base notes of sandalwood and cedarwood, No. 900 allows for a masculine fragrance to still be present for the male wearer and still have a hint of femininity for the ladies. It has notes similar to Tom Ford’s Lost Cherry and is one of FM’s top-selling unisex fragrances.
Whilst a designer bottle will cost just under £200 online, FM is an excellent alternative for a more affordable fragrance with similar notes and the exact size bottle.
Sometimes, we must be savvy shoppers if we have expensive taste in perfume. Like some of their other fragrance bottles, the bottle is clumpy and inconvenient.
If it’s one of your favourites, it can quickly transfer into a smaller perfume spray, similar to those we use for holidays, for convenience Travel size perfume.
You can purchase a smaller bottle of 15ml here.

The added benefit of containing 20% perfume oil means that this fragrance will last around eight hours. It is a relatively strong scent, so it may not be suitable for some looking for a daytime perfume. However, it is undoubtedly a good choice for a night out or a weekend away.
A few spritzes are all you need to keep this fragrance from overpowering yourself or others.
If you are considering purchasing FM No. 900 for a male, remember what I said about the top notes being fruity initially.
Once left on the skin for a few hours, the base notes will come through, and this fragrance will last throughout the day. The fragrance also comes in a lovely box, so it’s an excellent gift for someone’s birthday or Christmas.
Other products available in the same scent:
■ Shower gel 300ml

Cheap Perfumes
When it comes to cheap perfumes, we usually look online. It’s a place at our fingertips where there are often offers galore and sales that seem to go on forever.
When we hear the word ‘cheap,’ it often implies that something is tacky, of poor quality, not made well, or that the service isn’t of high quality. I’ve never been keen on using ‘cheap’ to describe a product or service, even if it doesn’t cost much. I prefer to use ‘affordable’.
Of course, this isn’t necessarily the case. While several products on the market would fall under this umbrella, there are thousands of products out there that are reasonable and affordable.
Affiliate Disclosure

When we describe something as affordable, its perception can vary from person to person. What may be considered affordable for one individual may not necessarily hold the same affordability for someone else. Unlike the term “cheap,” which seems to constrict this affordability spectrum, the definition of cheap itself denotes a low price, which, on its own, isn’t inherently harmful.
The association of low quality and short lifespan often accompanies the term “cheap.” However, it’s important to note that when we apply the term to perfumes, it doesn’t necessarily imply inferior quality. Instead, it indicates that the product is priced lower than some high-end fragrances.
Given the significant variation in fragrance prices, labelling a perfume as cheap doesn’t inherently speak to its overall quality. A fragrance’s affordability is subjective and depends on individual preferences and budget constraints.
Designer perfumes don’t have to cost a fortune. Coco Noir on eBay Expensive perfumes often boast a higher concentration of perfume oil. For instance, FM Cosmetics offers concentrated perfume oil ranging from 20% to 30% in their bottles. The ability to incorporate a higher percentage of perfume oil is attributed to their streamlined packaging, the absence of celebrity endorsements, and the omission of television advertisements. These factors significantly contribute to the elevated prices associated with designer and celebrity fragrances.
It’s crucial to consider the type of fragrance purchased—a genuine perfume, an Eau de Toilette, or a body spray. Each category varies in concentration, longevity, and overall intensity. Understanding these distinctions helps consumers make informed choices based on their preferences and desired fragrance experience.
Beware of Market Stalls: Identifying Fake Designer Perfumes
Inexpensive perfumes sold at open market stalls often mimic well-known designer packaging but may reveal unpleasant surprises once used. Several tell-tale signs, including label alignment, liquid clarity, bottle quality, and packaging details, can identify these counterfeit fragrances. Shoppers should be cautious to avoid disappointment and potential health risks from fake products.
More commonly, inexpensive perfumes are linked to open market stalls, reminiscent of the Del Boy’s of the market trade, attempting to peddle imitation perfumes. These bottles often mimic the packaging of well-known designers, offering a slightly reduced price.
Unbeknownst to the unsuspecting shopper, the revelation occurs when they return home to experience the fragrance, only to discover an unpleasant scent reminiscent of the kitchen bin and a colour matching that of yesterday’s dishwater! Caution is warranted when buying fragrances from markets, as these offerings are frequently replicas or counterfeits of designer fragrances.
They often look identical, but there will be small clues to suggest that a perfume is fake. Depending on which brands are being copied, we must look out for some common hidden tell-tale signs.
1. The label should be centred on the bottle.
2. Genuine perfume will be a clear liquid devoid of floating debris or cloudiness.
3. Many designers ensure that their lids are asymmetrical compared to the rest of the bottle.
4. Check the bottom of the bottle for spelling or printing errors. Counterfeit bottles often have attached labels instead of printed writing.
5. Examine the nozzle; for instance, Chanel No.5 has no cap on its nozzle.
6. Genuine fragrances feature seamless plastic wrapping and paperboard designed to protect the bottle.
7. The bottles should have a smooth finish with no rough edges or contours.
8. They often exhibit the top note, the first scent we perceive.
9. Cheaper perfumes are generally sweeter and are aimed at a younger demographic who may not have the budget for an expensive brand.
10. Fake perfumes can still sell well, as they may replicate the top notes and, if you’re fortunate, the middle notes.
Be vigilant when purchasing genuine perfumes online. Sometimes, a perfume is labelled cheap due to special offers on a particular fragrance. This designation does not imply that the fragrance itself is of low quality or inferior; rather, it signifies that discounts or promotions are available for the product.
This distinction is essential, as it clarifies that the reduced price results from a promotional opportunity rather than an inherent characteristic of the fragrance being of lower quality.
Wording is everything
If you encounter a site advertising ‘half-price perfumes,’ it suggests that the fragrances are available at a reduced cost. The wording implies that while they are more affordable, the quality of the fragrance remains high. This creates the perception that you can still enjoy designer fragrances without the hefty price tag, potentially leading to significant savings.
Many online shops specialize in providing designer fragrances at more accessible prices. Their mission is to offer top-tier perfumes without the traditional high cost. The online model allows for reduced prices since these shops don’t have the overhead expenses associated with physical stores or the need to cover in-store personnel costs.
Platforms like eBay often feature designer scents at lower prices for similar reasons. They can offer competitive prices because they do not have a middleman, bulk purchasing capabilities, or third-party sellers.
However, when buying perfumes from platforms like eBay, you must ensure you purchase directly from reputable sources to guarantee authenticity. Reading reviews can provide valuable insights. While every store may have dissatisfied customers, examining reviews can help you identify recurring issues and make an informed decision, ultimately trusting your judgment in the purchase process.

If you prefer shopping in town and visiting a perfume store on the high street, you’ll often find that the prices are higher. This is because the shop owner incurs various operational costs. They must cover the rent for their physical store, compensate members of staff who assist you with your purchase and manage expenses like heating and hot water bills during the shop’s operating hours.
These additional costs contribute to the overall pricing structure, making the products relatively more expensive than online alternatives or stores with lower overheads.
Try a sample before you buy
Places like FM Cosmetics often provide perfume samples, allowing customers to try them before purchasing. This is an excellent way to select the perfect fragrance and assess its longevity.
If a fragrance doesn’t last as long as expected, it could indicate a counterfeit product. Therefore, it’s crucial to exercise caution when making a purchase. Consider factors such as the strength of the product, whether it’s an Eau de Toilette (EDT) or perfume, and the fragrance notes it contains.
Understanding these elements can help you make an informed decision and ensure the authenticity and quality of your fragrance.
Here are other tips to check your perfume is genuine.
The most reliable method to discern whether you have a fake fragrance is not solely relying on the top notes when spraying it. While the initial spray may give the impression of authenticity, it’s crucial to let the fragrance settle on your skin for a few hours.
Authentic perfumes transform scent after the initial application, so it’s valuable information to consider when purchasing a fragrance. By allowing time for the fragrance notes to evolve, you can more accurately assess the genuineness of the perfume.
It can be hard to tell the difference between genuine and fake fragrances. This is another reason to buy a sample first. Take it home, apply it to your wrist, and let the scent settle after 4 hours. This will allow the notes to meld with your skin and accurately represent the perfume you have chosen. It’s an excellent tip for any fragrance you decide to purchase. The base notes are the last scent you and everyone around you will perceive, so they must complement your nose and your skin.
Happy shopping!

Fragrances For Children
It’s not just adults who like to wear perfume. Fragrances for children are just as popular. There is no specific minimum age recommendation for the younger generation to wear perfume. Typically, once youngsters begin using deodorant around 11-12, there is no harm in boys and girls wearing a suitable fragrance.
However, youngsters just before their teens may occasionally wear fragrances. Schools may prefer not to use such products, as children share a classroom and sit closely together. Another child wearing a perfume that others can smell might be off-putting for those around them. Since schools generally don’t allow jewellery or makeup, it’s safe to assume that perfumes are prohibited.
Children under ten don’t need to be wearing any scent. Younger skin reacts to various products as it matures, so it’s best to stick to gentle soaps and shower gels for a clean and fresh smell.
In my experience, my niece was around 14 before I introduced her to the world of perfume. So, where do we start for those thinking of purchasing perfume for their sons or daughters?”

Fragrances for children
The first step is to consider what fragrance scents they may prefer.
Photo ©️fragranceswithlove.com Photo ©️fragranceswithlove.com Fruity and floral fragrances often appeal to girls, while boys may prefer scents with soft, woody notes. Considering this, it’s important to choose a scent that is subtly inviting.
Light fragrances for children
As adults, we can confidently wear heavier scents for an evening out, but youngsters only need a hint of fragrance, avoiding anything that smells too ‘grown up.’ Children grow up quickly in today’s world, so as parents, we always try to preserve their youth for as long as possible.
Once girls are introduced to makeup, perfume often follows suit. Teenage bedrooms become filled with designer clothes, hair products, jewellery, and various concoctions regarding deodorants and body sprays.
Boys’ bedrooms mirror this trend, with clothes scattered on the floor, countless items strewn about, and bedside tables crammed with bottles and sprays.
Fragrances for girls
Girls’ perfumes often have a musk base. I fondly recall wearing White Musk from the Body Shop; its delicate and subtle fragrance made it perfect for daytime and evening wear.
Other suitable fragrance notes for girls include floral, fruity, citrus, and orange. Anything with a delicate scent is ideal.
Scented body sprays, which are created with a hint of fragrance, can be perfect for the younger generation.
One of the most popular scents for girls is Daisy by Marc Jacobs.
The fruity notes of Daisy create a lovely combination, offering a fragrance that isn’t too heavy to wear and carries a distinctly feminine touch.
For those seeking a more affordable option, consider exploring FM 827.
FM World 827-Inspired by Marc Jacobs Daisy. With fragrance notes similar to Daisy, this 50ml bottle is priced at £26.00 if you purchase from FM World. This is a significant saving compared to the £50-£70 price range you might find online.
This fragrance can be described as joyful, full of energy, and sunny.
Fragrance Notes:
- Head: Peach, lemon, apple blossom, juicy pear, violet leaves
- Heart: Jasmine, freesia, hibiscus, green leaves
- Base: Musk, cedarwood, sandalwood

Lacoste pour Femme by Lacoste is another excellent choice for young girls. Priced between £30 and £60, depending on the retailer, it offers a delightful fragrance with soft, floral notes—perfect for daytime wear. With its musk base note, this fragrance leaves a gentle sillage.
Another FM alternative to Lacoste, and a more affordable option, is FM 146, priced at £37.00 for a 50ml bottle.
Type: Crystal clear, romantic
Fragrance Notes:
- Head: Yuzu, pomegranate, ice chord
- Heart: Lotus, magnolia, peony
- Base: Ambergris, musk, mahogany
Pomegranate is the top note for Lacoste The ideal notes for a young male fragrance are fresh and watery, with a hint of spice. Anything too earthy or rich can be overpowering for youngsters. A popular choice for young men is Sauvage by Dior.
It boasts a fresh, masculine scent with a musk base note, making it well-suited for the younger generation. With excellent sillage, there’s no need for frequent reapplication. Long-lasting and reasonably affordable, Le Male is a big hit with both boys and girls!

FM World 110- An excellent alternative for the younger generation Bvlgari Aqua Marine is another popular scent, offering a fresh, aquatic, and masculine aroma suitable for any occasion.

Bvlgari contains citrus notes that may not be suitable for those with allergies. FM has a fragrance similar to Bvlgari Aqua pour Homme in their number 135 fragrance.

Christmas Stocking Fillers
Christmas stocking fillers are often the easiest gifts to buy. They don’t have to be expensive; they must be small enough to fit inside a stocking. This tradition has endured over the years, even when I was a child, some 40 years ago.
There’s something magical about waking up on Christmas morning as a child and seeing a bulging stocking at the end of the bed or hanging from the bedroom door handle—a sure sign that Santa has paid a visit.
It’s a longstanding tradition to hang a stocking for Santa. These days, children are fortunate to receive much more than just a piece of fruit in their stockings. Over the years, the tradition has expanded beyond just children; now, even adults with their own families partake in the fun. It’s just as exciting for grown-ups to see what ‘Santa’ has brought as it is for the children.
Around November, many people start thinking about Christmas presents, scouring shops and department stores or looking online for ideas. Nowadays, many small businesses are promoting their handmade items for sale.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Christmas markets were bustling with shoppers. Strolling through the local market was delightful, picking up unique gifts. Finding distinctive items makes filling the stockings even more special. Handmade gifts have become very popular, whether purchased online or from local artisans.
Christmas stocking fillers for adults
Where do we start when filling a stocking for the grown-ups? Online stores offer a vast range of small items suitable for this purpose. Each year presents the challenge of finding something different yet practical. Choosing gifts that will be used and not be forgotten in the back of a wardrobe or passed on to someone else is essential!
Santa visits every home at Christmas. I remember many years ago, around the age of 10, buying a Christmas present for a friend—a selection of ‘smellies.’ Let’s face it: Christmas isn’t Christmas without a bar of soap or a bottle of bubble bath. However, I received the same gift as my Christmas present a year later!
As a child, I felt disheartened to see that the gift I had given the year before had been rewrapped and returned to me. It was disappointing to realize that no thought had gone into choosing a personal present when it was passed back.
Purchasing Christmas stocking fillers
So, where are the best places to buy stocking fillers? Many stores offer =options if you enjoy strolling around shops and soaking up the Christmas atmosphere. For those who prefer the convenience of online shopping, using a laptop, computer, or phone is a great place to start. Many online retailers provide a vast selection of small, suitable gifts, making it easy to find the perfect stocking fillers from the comfort of your home.
Chanel is one of the most iconic perfumes to date. Where do the majority of people shop?

There are many Christmas products available for stocking fillers for men and women. Let’s focus on gifts with scents.
Wardrobe fragrances
Spraying your favourite fragrance onto your clothes is never advisable, so having a wardrobe fragrance is the ideal solution. These are designed to hang on the rail, providing a wonderful scent that gives your clothes a freshly washed smell. Similarly, scented bags and drawer fragrance sheets are perfect for infusing smaller spaces with a pleasant aroma. Their compact size makes them an ideal addition to a Christmas stocking.
Candles
We’ve covered scented candles in a previous post. Candles come in all shapes and sizes and have always been very traditional at Christmas.
Ranging from tea light candles to more cylinder-shaped ones, many come with a delicate fragrance to fill the room with Christmas spirit. Opt for spicy, nutmeg, or mulled wine scents; they set the scene for winter. Yankee candles are perfect if you love a winter and Christmas fragrance. If you prefer a scent that matches your perfume, look at the candle selection in our online shop.
Car air fresheners
Most men enjoy car fragrance just as much as women do. Gone are the days of the traditional dice hanging from the rearview mirror in the ’70s. Cars can get just as dirty inside as our homes, and unlike our homes, we can’t leave the windows open to air them out when we’re not inside. However, be cautious when choosing car air fresheners, as some can be overpowering in a vehicle’s confined space and might cause a headache.
I’ve found that lemon and citrus scents are often too strong. Many air fresheners come in clear packets that you tear open weekly to release a controlled amount of fragrance, which can help manage strong scents. If opting for a powerful scent, look for these controlled-release options to avoid overwhelming your senses.
Reed diffusers are another great stocking filler for both men and women. They have become very popular over the past few years and give the home a hint of fragrance that doesn’t overpower like spray air fresheners.
Some come in very sophisticated bottles, making them look elegant and decorative in the home. They tend to last long, depending on where you purchase them. Certain scents will help relax the mind and body after a long day. It’s safer if you like the smell of candles but have young children or pets. Unlike a candle that has to be put out once you leave the house, a reed diffuser can be left to fragrance any room safely.

Body spray
Body sprays can be ideal gifts in the stocking and under the tree. They’re a product that everyone uses, even young children. They’re often available in many fragrances and brands; some are also designed for sensitive skin. They’re easy to carry in a handbag for the office or a sports bag on the way to the gym.
Soap
Over the years, soaps have become very decorative, with many small businesses designing, creating, and selling them online. When we once received a bar of Dove in the stocking, it was a lovely surprise to have a handcrafted bar (almost too pretty to use). If you need unscented soap, there are lots to choose from.

Solid perfume and antiperspirant sticks
Some people aren’t keen on sprayed fragrances. So, solid perfume and antiperspirant sticks are an ideal alternative. They are possibly longer-lasting in their container compared to the amount that would be sprayed with your usual favourite perfume. They are also ideal for a holiday as there is no risk of any spillages in the suitcase.
Shower gel
As we all know, soap bars can be very messy (especially when children get hold of them!), so having another option in the form of a liquid/gel is ideal. These are easily transferable to another container if you have a shampoo/conditioner and shower container on your bathroom wall. Most shower gels have a fragrance, but just like bars of soap, you can purchase unscented ones, too. These often come in little sets with a body scrub, which makes an excellent stocking gift.

Winter Perfume
As the nights start drawing in and Christmas approaches rapidly, many of us may find ourselves searching for the perfect winter perfume. Some people prefer to wear the same fragrance throughout the year, whether a summer or winter scent. This approach has nothing wrong with it, as certain fragrances can be versatile enough to be worn year-round.
However, for those who relish the change in seasons and look forward to updating their wardrobe accordingly, finding a new winter fragrance is part of the excitement. With a wide array of perfume choices on the market, the increasing cost of a new fragrance bottle can easily dent your budget.
So, how can we add a winter fragrance to our collection without breaking the bank? Mr Artur Trawinski created FM World in 2004.
Drom- the perfume oil creator The company has grown over the years to provide fragrances that are not only affordable but also long-lasting and unique. Using simple bottles, no fancy packaging, and no celebrity endorsers, FM has created over 200 fragrances for both men and women.
What makes them so unique? FM uses the same fragrance oils as the designers and selects fragrance notes from the same fragrance families. So, while their scents may closely resemble designer perfumes, they have their distinctive aroma (not copied), price tag, and packaging.

Long lasting fragrances
Some may question how a fragrance can be long-lasting when it’s much cheaper to purchase. Please take a closer look for an insight into FM World perfumes. I have hand-picked a selection of men’s and women’s fragrances created by FM.

Affordable and alternative fragrances
There are many alternatives online to men’s and women’s fragrances. Many of these are ‘copies,’ typically diluted scents packaged in the same box with a fancy bottle that looks identical to the authentic product. We try the scent and realize it either doesn’t smell like we imagined or only lasts a few hours.
It’s only then that we realize we’ve bought a fake product. Markets are notorious for selling counterfeit brands, so beware. So how else can we save money on our favourite perfume or cologne without buying copied products?
Several FM fragrances, including pheromones, come in an intense range. Let’s now look at the male selection for winter.
