With the fragrance market currently saturated with big-name fashion house spin-offs it’s exciting to see the launch of something a little more luxury in time for Christmas. Perfume has seen a move towards specialised, smaller scale production where trendsetting craftsmanship is appreciated as art. Why not indulge in something a little bit more individual for a loved one or yourself (or both, check out the unisex perfume) this Christmas? We’ve selected some niche, luxury perfumes that offer the finest ingredients and most distinctive personalities. For WOMEN: EVODY Mother and daughter duo Régine and Cérine created Evody as a collection of personal fragrances which are autobiographical and inspired by loved ones. Notes De Luxe is a particular favourite from the collection, the opulent aura of this perfume features Bergamot with exotic Jasmine and is enhanced by warm spices.
