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.

Another vote for Hermès Perfume..

Or perhaps another pair of Embassy London shoes...my guilty treat.

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!)

Have a look at essence vault. They usually have some good dupes

UmaniCaroline · 29/10/2023 13:40

Some nice ideas here!

My first thought was haircut (but that's because I need one), facial, massage or similar.

Chance eau de tendre perfume

bippityboppity87 · 29/10/2023 13:46

Oh I really want a Chance Chanel perfume!

MinnieCauldwell · 29/10/2023 13:52

CACI Ultimate Facial, don't need any more stuff but my skin is a mess!

SprinkleOfSunak · 29/10/2023 13:53

A bottle of Allure eau de toilette by Chanel, and a box of Charbonnel et Walker Marc de champagne truffles.

Or, an Indian Head massage, a bowl of noodles and a green tea at my favourite Japanese restaurant, and a new dress.

xogossipgirlxo · 29/10/2023 13:54

I’d go for nice facial or massage. If shop bought, perhaps some nice handbag.

Champagne

@bippityboppity87 thank you, I will!

Gloves! Wonderful luxurious well-made gloves!

icantchangetime · 29/10/2023 15:10

Seen these gloves. Out of my £100 price but they look fabulous

Either a cashmere scarf/wrap or some Debaser perfume. I can't justify the cost of either but would love both!

Crunchymum · 29/10/2023 15:25

Molecule 01 from Liberty. Just ordered some as it was a tenner off - still a pretty expensive perfume though (I'll keep it for Christmas!!)

BeaLola · 29/10/2023 15:29

Neom mini pod and selection of oils

Moredarkchocolateplease · 29/10/2023 16:32

I just unexpectedly had some available cash. I bought a COS leather handbag £90, and a Uniqlo lambswool jumper
£29.50.

I am totally delighted with both items. (and contrary to what I've read on here the lambswool jumper washed on a wool wash beautifully).

I would like some perfect silver hoops, some new Puma trainers.

All of those under £100.

I don't get perfume and wouldn't bother with an experience like a massage or facial - I always fall asleep!

PurpleSky09 · 29/10/2023 17:01

I would choose either a nice pen (love stationery!), a weighted blanket, or some nice pyjamas.

Redlarge · 29/10/2023 17:03

Id really love some good skincare. My menopausal skin is awful and my cheapo products just arent cutting it.
That and some decent tights.
