For Christmas 2011 I’ll be doing gift recommendations every day – stuff that I genuinely think are good value and make unusual, lovely gifts! Keep an eye out for a chance to win the gift recommendation of the day too!
There’s no doubt that Jo Malone is a luxurious range which has the prices to match. The brand has a gorgeous feel though; it’s definitely a good gifting brand in that they can wrap everything up to make it look extra special.
For Christmas, Jo Malone has this affordable Christmas Cracker (£28) with 3 products inside:
Yes it actually looks like a cracker! Inside is…
- A mini grapefruit cologne
- Lime Basil and Mandarin Body Hand Wash
- Pomegranate Noir Body Creme
Here they are:
I am a newbie when it comes to Jo Malone so for me it was a nice way to try some of the products and scents.
Grapefruit is fresh and zingy, Lime Basil and Mandarin was also very nice, kind of zingy too and my favourite by far was Pomegranate Noir – I can’t even being to describe it (well) – it’s very rich, sort of musky, quite strong, slightly floral but also very fruity. I love it; it’s also quite unusual.
Although this gift can be a ‘stocking filler’ it is definitely great as a standalone gift too depending on your budget. It’s out of stock online but there may be stock on the counters.
Type of Gift: Stocking Filler, Luxury, Beauty
Perfect for: Ladies who love luxury things!
Where to buy: Online or at Jo Malone counters.
Limited Edition: Yes
Jo Malone Grapefruit is love – and my new fave is Pomelo by Jo Loves!
Mmmmmm the Jo Malone scents sounds so zingy! Wish I didn’t find the JM counters intimidating
