I'm a perfume junkie. There I said it. I have at least 10 knocking around at the moment so I thought I'd share with you some of my favourites which would make lovely Christmas gifts.
I received this Oh, Lola! gift set for my birthday recently and it is beautiful! I've been wearing it pretty much every day :)
"A sparkling, fruity floral, Oh, Lola! captures the flirtatious essence of her easy charm. Oh, Lola! opens with refreshing top note of effervescent raspberry. Her pink femininity is reflected in the beautiful peony heart. A sensual elegance with addictive vanilla in the dry down leaves an unforgettable flirtatious touch."
Marc Jacobs Oh, Lola! Gift Set - £50

Illamasqua Freak - £59.00
