Last Minute Gift: The Perfume - Gucci Bamboo

You know the drill, last minute Christmas invite and you need to make a trolley dash round a shopping centre finding gifts you didn't think you needed to buy. When this catastrophe happens to me (every year) I always head to The Perfume Shop.

I personally never buy a new fragrance for myself unless it's my 'signature scent' and always wait for someone to get me one as a gift so it's always the first thing I think of as a last minute option.

My top fragrance choice this year is from Gucci and it's their new release; Bamboo, I think is a scent you'd be hard pressed to find anybody that it offended. It's a lovely mix of floral with a warm sandalwood base, it's not sickly sweet so you don't feel like a teen, it's not too floral so you feel a granny and it's not too spicy and warm that you feel masculine wearing it, all in all I think it's the perfect fragrance gift as it will suit so many people and all ages.

This set has a 50ml Eau de Parfum and 100ml Body Lotion for £68.00 (Link) and The Perfume Shop (Link) has 99p Next Day Delivery so there's still time to do your shopping if you don't fancy my trolley dash approach.
