About to order a perfume I really loved (as an Xmas gift from dh) for around £150, but now wondering if I should get something else because he's told me my main gift is also perfume .

What would you buy for that money, just for you?

All ideas welcome Smile I'm

Pascal Doc Martens.

Each pair I've bought have lasted a good 700 wears.

Lovely suggestions although I have some of these already such as the cloud 9 straighteners, AirPods, make up.
Lego is such a cute hobby but I really don't have the patience for it tbh!

Two Stanley FatMax toolboxes- the massive ones.

I’ve got one of these and it’s ace!

I had 2, full of tools I'd collected over the years. They were both stolen the day before we moved house. I was gutted! (Especially as I needed the tools almost as soon as we moved in- it's taken me ages to rebuild my collection and they're nowhere near as good quality!)

Tear trough fillers

@CeriB82 what is this you had me at filler?

Another really nice pen. You can't have too many nice quality pens.

New riding boots, and then I'd put the rest towards a half day beach/trail ride.

Just got a similar amount from a lovely relative.
Already bought myself a Babyliss Ionic volume round hair styler (love it for my flimsy menopausal bob), also looking at a cotton Fairisle jumper, new Muckboots and some lovely leather gloves.

Oh that’s such a shame, I’m so sorry.

I have the exact same lovely predicament.
I ordered chunky black knee high leather boots from m&s for £110 which i love BUT I have chunky calf muscles so they don't fit so I'm returning them.
So im going to get white nike air force 1's (£70 because I'm a size 5 so can wear juniors) and there is a black Steve madden hand bag from tk maxx I want, plus a new snuggly dressing gown 👌
