Are you wondering what high-end scent I should buy before December 24th? I’m going with the Maison Margiela ‘Replica’ Jazz Club Eau de Toilette (from $85; $68) after giving it a lot of thought, and I doubt I’ll ever change my mind. I have no doubt that it has a woodsy-earthiness to it that will go well with it from day to night, especially with the warm and spicy notes of pink pepper, rum absolute, smokey tobacco leaf, and sweet vanilla. Furthermore, according to one customer, it is a perfect imitation of the Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum scent (available for $195; $156). An additional lovely touch is the luxury bottle’s rope wrapping, which the brand claims is a throwback to the original couture line and serves more than simply cosmetic benefits.
If that doesn’t appeal to you, think about grabbing a bottle (or two) of Yves Saint Laurent’s Black Opium Eau de Parfum. According to a customer, “From its sleek black bottle to its mature yet playful scent, it’s a must-have for anyone seeking a memorable signature scent.” What other reason do you believe it has received over 404,000 heartfelt views on Sephora’s website? I’ll wait, but it won’t last long because everyone is vying for this aroma, RN.
And if you want to get your closest friend a scent that the royal family approves of, go no further than Meghan Markle’s favorite Jo Malone London wood sage & sea salt perfume.
According to PureWow Assistant Editor Delia Curtis, the PureWow100’s trademark aroma is “a cross between a hike in California’s Redwood forest and a lengthy dip in the sea.” You can’t go wrong, in my opinion, especially because the promo code FRAGRANCE20 allows you to save 20%. To guarantee that your item arrives in time for Christmas, don’t forget to choose same-day shipping. In 2025, you (or the recipient of your gift) will smell amazing!
