Each fragrance is inspired by nature’s finest blooms, crafting a radiant scent experience that lingers beautifully on the skin. The collection offers delicate notes like Immortelle, Narcissus Poeticus, and Ylang Cananga, capturing the warmth and vibrance of each flower in timeless, sophisticated blends.

For a scent that’s both grounding and poetic, Chloé Atelier Des Fleurs Cedrus Eau De Parfum makes an exceptional choice this Christmas. Conceived by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Cedrus brings a unique depth with its woody, smoky, and musky tones, inspired by a childhood memory of a bouquet of branches, a playful gift from his father to his mother. This blend of balsam and soft woods offers an elegant scent that can be worn solo or layered with others from the Atelier des Fleurs line, letting her create a fragrance bouquet as personal and unique as her. Perfect for giving a sense of luxurious warmth and a lasting impression, or to keep for yourself!

The brand has rolled out a range of holiday kits perfect for gifting, featuring never-seen and fan favourite shades for lips, eyes and cheeks, all wrapped up in statement-making gold.

The Gilded Glamour Best-Sellers Trio is a limited-edition set of curated favourites from M.A.C, including the cult favourite Fix+ Alcohol-Free Multitasking Setting Spray in a mini size for luminous, locked-in makeup on the go. The M.A.C Stack Mascara, with its iconic, modern design, volumises without clumping. In the renewed M.A.Cximal Silky Matte Lipstick formula, the shade Warm Teddy, a lush terracotta, can be used on both lips and cheeks for a monochromatic flush.

Our favourite? The Skinfinish Metallic Cream Blush also features three new holiday-exclusive shades: Glowing Treasure, Coveted Coral and Priceless Purple. This luxurious cream blush formula blends into your skin, and adds an opulent sparkle to your makeup.

L’occitane Holiday Collection– A Grand Body Care Voyage Through Provence and Beyond

L’occitane invites you to a Grand Voyage along the Citrus Road with this year’s holiday collection: four internationally renowned citrus fruits have been blended into the brand’s signature Rose, Shea and Almond lines. This holiday collection is enhanced by traditional Toile de Jouy- illustrated packaging by Calicot Paris, depicting, in its detail-rich form, a train travelling through citrus-inspired Provençal landscapes.

The brand’s fragrant Almond has been combined with Luminciana lemon, otherwise known as the Panettone lemon, alongside vibrant tea extracts to form a comforting take on the Almond line. The Almond Citron Luminciana shower oil foams perfectly in water to cleanse and fragrance the skin, while the Almond Citron Luminciana Milk Concentrate hydrates and awakens.

We are always fans of rose scents, and the Rose Citron Meyer Eau de Toilette is a stellar example: it opens with sparkling, fresh Meyer Lemon, before diving into a bouquet of L’occitane’s signature heady Provençal roses. This bright scent can also be found in the Rose Citron Meyer Hand Cream and Body Cream, enriched with nourishing Shea butter.

The L’occitane holiday collection is available in all L’occitane retail outlets, and online at the store.

Drunk Elephant A Shore Thing Holiday Collection– For Vacation-Ready, Glowing Skin

If you’ve ever wondered what magic goes into your tropical vacations to make your skin extra healthy, glowing and relaxed, Drunk Elephant has bottled it for you– the A Shore Thing Holiday Collection is inspired by soft, dewy “vacation skin”, and promises holiday-ready relaxation and pampering. Free of what the brand terms the “Suspicious 6” – essential oils, alcohol, silicones, chemical sunscreens, fragrances and sodium lauryl sulfate– potentially irritating ingredients, it’s your skin’s turn to kick back.

The Coast is Clear Night Kit features four of Drunk Elephant’s skincare bestsellers for a night routine that calms and cares for your skin. The Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser dissolves makeup and impurities and leaves skin cleansed and smooth, the Lala Retro Whipped Cream nourishes with ceramides and marula oil with a weightless texture, the T.L.C Framboos Glycolic Night Serum works to unclog pores and refine skin texture with its potent blend of 10% alpha and beta hydroxy acid, and the Ceramighty A.F. eye balm plumps and restores the under-eyes. Wake up in the morning looking refreshed, well-rested, and ready to face another sun-soaked day.

Bobbi Brown– Effortless, Swipe-On Holiday Glamour

Originator of the effortless, barely-there makeup look back in the 1980s, Bobbi Brown has never disappointed with her range of swipe-on-and-go products to bring out the best of your features. This festive season, Bobbi Brown adds new, jewel-toned shades to the famous range of Long-Wear Cream Shadow Sticks, as well as a pair of stocking-friendly Eyeshadow Duo Gift Sets for some extra holiday sparkle.

The new Long-Wear Cream Shadow Sticks have the same creamy, malleable textures and vibrant colour payoff we love, in five new shades: Copper Prism, Emerald, Gold Rush, Iced, and Sapphire. Bobbi Brown’s eyeshadow shades always carry that artistic nuance, and so do these: we have our eyes on Copper Prism, a saturated topaz yellow; Emerald, a deep peacock green reminiscent of Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra; and Sapphire, a rich lapis-lazuli blue.

Each of the Eyeshadow Duo Gift Sets contain all you need for a festive party look on the go: a pair of intense metallic eyeshadows, a Perfectly Defined Gel Eyeliner, and a Smokey Eye Mascara. Housed in special, limited-edition, vintage-inspired compacts, each eyeshadow duo lets you swipe on a coppery-warm look or a classic steely smokey eye.
