Finding fragrance bargains can be a nightmare so please read my tips on how to bag yourself a great deal when buying this years Christmas presents.

Comparison websites are the first port of call as you can quickly get a feel for what you can expect to pay.

Another way is to search the web for voucher codes, especially in the run up to Christmas as the retailers tend to use sales, money off codes and vouchers to get your business.

Once you have found the cheapest retailer your next move is to see if there are any cash back websites offering you cash back by purchasing your new scent via their website.

I do hope my tips help you in your quest to find the perfect, cheap fragrance!

As I walked past my friend last week she smelt gorgeous! Asking her what perfume she was wearing she informed me that it was in fact Alien by Thierry Mugler. I went straight out and bought myself a bottle of Eau de Parfum Spray which only costs on average £24.99 for a 15ml bottle.

Alien has a lovely woody, floral fragrance with notes of Jasmine sambac and orange blossom. Which altogether give off a sexy, seductive scent.

The bottle of Alien that I bought was a special edition ‘Gem stone’ shape which would look fabulous on any woman’s dressing table.

I have had a number of compliments on my ’smell’ already and feel I have finally found my trademark scent!

I was pretty mortified when i found out that the worlds most expensive perfume costs an astonishing £115,000.00, really this is how much some people can shed out for one bottle of perfume that will be all gone in a couple of months, shocking, just think what you could buy for that amount of money. I personally would prefer thousands of bottles instead of just the one!

I suppose some money have millions to spend and love the thought of luxury so if you are one of these lucky people who has the cash to splash then the fragrance you want to buying for your lady is Imperial Majesty. The bottle does sounds breath taking though it is shaped as a Baccarat cystal and comes with an 18-carat gold collar with a five carat white diamond!

If you want to but a bottle of the luxury fragrance then you will have to make a visit to Harrods as they are the only shop retailing the most expensive fragrance known on this planet!

Christmas day is fast approaching, where has the year gone really! I think that perfume is a great gift for a loved one. If you are buying for your girlfriend, mum or even your nan then you need to head to Agent Provocateur and sample there fragrances.

When you say Agent Provocateur people think saucy underwear but there beauty products  are just as good!

I would never of thought of trying out there fragrance until i got but it for my birthday and i instantly fell in love with it and get complimented every where i go. I am pretty vain when it comes to perfume and the packaging has to be just as exciting as the smell and you cant fault the designer of the Agent Provocateur bottle it is a saucy pink hand grenade-esque shape of porcelain with a small black tag and adds glamour to any girl’s handbag. The smell was that amazing that i had to go in the shop and find out what else they had to offer and ended up leaving the shop with the dusting powder that goes perfect with the fragrance.

So when you are off out to find stocking fillers make sure you stop by Agent Provocateur to put a big smile on your loved ones face!

I have found a new shop which i absolutely love at the moment called Hollister Co and the best bit is that is sells both men’s and women’s clothes.

For the first time since shopping there i actually smelt the aftershaves that are scattered around the till and they are actually really nice smelling.

The come in 1 fl Oz or 1.7 fl OZ or in mini bottles and the larger ones start at £24 and go up to £40 and the mini’s are priced at £32 for 3 bottles.

I must say my favorite is the SoCal but my friends all liked different ones for their men.

I am currently in love the Chanel Coco madamoiselle but it is a bit on the pricey side.  If you know someone who works in the perfume / make up section of department stores than it is always worth being cheaky and asking if they will buy it with their staff discount as this will save you some money.

The twist and spray costs around £66 but this is fantastic to carry around as a handbag perfume.
The Eau De Perfume spray costs around £78 but this did last a long time for me as i had the Twist and Spray for my handbag.

With Christmas only around the corner why not be cheaky and ask for a bottle in your stocking…
