Can anyone recommend almond scented gift sets or individual products that are a bit cheaper than L'Occitane please?

Body shop's almond handcream is really nice.

They have an almond and honey range although I've not tried it.

Although the loccitane almond range is hard to beat! QVC often have good prices for it, and easy pay options too, although I've just checked and there's not much on easy pay right now.

Thank you. I hadn't thought to look in Bodyshop. I'm trying to put a gift basket together for a friend who is recently bereaved and know she loves the smell of almond.

TkMax often have almond soaps which are nice.

That's really lovely @User1055

I've had a quick look to see if I could find any loccitane at a really good price, I did find this set which is nice. Not massive sizes but a little goes a long way I find and I think this is quite good for the money:

I bought some almond milk and vanilla bath foam from M&S through ocado last week. Not sure if they do a full range?

As Leah says above, the M&S almond and vanilla range on Ocado is really nice. Vegan and cruelty-free, too: www.ocado.com/search?entry=m%26s%20almond%20and%20vanilla

I've been bereaved during first lockdown and had so many flowers I ran out of space to put them, so I wanted to do something more personal so she can pamper herself. Definitely adding her favourite chocolate too. 🍫

Hey Op, Dr Bronner's almond soap is lovely. Not sure if I've attached the link properly but it's worth a look. They do a whole range of almond (but also lots of other scents).

Weleda Almond Body Wash is lovely, mild but with a nice Almond scent and very soothing.

Whocalledmetoday · 11/01/2021 01:50

M&S almond and vanilla is good. If I’m honest nothing compares to how deliciously good the loccitane almond smell is. Nothing comes close Blush

QueenPawPaws · 11/01/2021 02:03

I can agree with the body shop almond milk and honey range, it's gorgeous and the hand cream sinks in so fast

QueenPawPaws · 11/01/2021 02:06

Oh and not as cheap but & other stories larkstaden range. They do hand wash, shower gel etc and it looks nice too

Le Petit Marseillais. Very gentle. A lot cheaper than L'Occitane but you use a lot more of its shower gel because it's weaker. The soaps and moisturisers are brilliant,

MaliceOrgan · 11/01/2021 08:42

& other stories sell an almond range (Larkstanden or something)
