I've been asked this for a special birthday so wondering what others would do?

I'm thinking of a new perfume, maybe from Jo Malone.

Boots. Might have to wait for a sale.

Jo Loves, rather than Jo Malone.

I was also thinking of luxury gloves. Something I would never buy myself

Pomelo is the classic, but if you have a Space NK within striking distance, they have a range ( or did last time I looked)

I think that might be a Velvetiser autocorrect?!? 😂

A bottle of Hermes Eau des Merveilles: the eau de toilette not the parfum version.

A nice pair of boots or a bag.

sparklefresh · 29/10/2023 12:14

Or a cashmere scarf - something functional but luxurious, so you enjoy and appreciate it. I'd want something I was going to use and not save for 'best'.

Rosiiee · 29/10/2023 12:17

@TheFlis a womaniser is an adult toy. But a velvetiser is also nice 😂

IHeartGeneHunt · 29/10/2023 12:18

Perfume, something from Penhaligon

hattie43 · 29/10/2023 12:20

A chase and wonder library candle . Exquisite.

fluffypotatoes · 29/10/2023 12:20

Bed linen

Shinyandnew1 · 29/10/2023 12:22

Lovely bed linen

I did this last week - bought some Solovair boots in TK Maxx for £99

LaChatte · 29/10/2023 12:24

A pair of Celtic and Co sheepskin slippers (to replace my old pair which are showing their age).

warriorofhopelessness · 29/10/2023 12:26

A print or other small artwork.

Theatre tickets - something dead good.

Matthew Bourne's Edward Scissorhands is coming in January. I love all his work.

A perfume by diptyque called Do Son. I love it but can't justify the price! (If anyone knows a cheaper dupe let me know!)

FussyPud · 29/10/2023 13:16

A wool duvet.
