How to choose a Secret Santa perfume

  • Not sure of their taste? Choose a fresh or unisex scent such as Matcha Magix or Versace Blue Jeans. Very sweet or very smoky scents divide people.
  • Check the size. Every pick above is a full bottle (50–105ml), not a sample, so it feels like a proper present.
  • Keep the receipt simple. Unopened, sealed perfume can be returned to us within 14 days, so the person can swap if it isn’t for them. See our returns policy.
  • Order early in December. We dispatch the same day when you order by 2pm (Mon–Fri), and delivery is free over £45 if you are buying more than one gift.
