If you are looking for a nice fragrance to give the man in your life for a Christmas gift, consider Paul Smith London for men.
London for men is a gourmand based men’s fragrance, originally launched in 2004. It is a perfect blend of green mandarin, violet flowers, shots of frosted mint, jasmine, lavender, vintage brandy accord, vetyver, Australian sandalwood, tonka beans, and amber.
Paul Smith isn’t new to the men’s fragrance department. His previous two scents, Paul Smith Original (2000) and Paul Smith Extreme (2002) were both resounding successes. It is no wonder then that his third incursion has proven to be a very good proponent of its genre. In spite of its more masculine traits, London for men is perfectly suitable for women. In fact, it would be fair to say it has a definite unisex quality about it.
London for men’s packaging is stylish and practical. It comes with a cylindrical outer box that holds a glass atomizer in the shape of a beaker, a very fashionable beaker that is. Suffice to say the packaging isn’t really impressive, but when a fragrance is this well prepared, the package in which it comes doesn’t really matter now, does it?
I think it would be fair to categorize Paul Smith’s London for men among the great gourmand fragrances of the past couple of years, a must-try for the enthusiasts of stronger gourmands. Plus given its low price, must buy might be construed as an understatement.

One of the hottest new fragrances for women is Vera Wang’s Look.

Vera Wang fragrances always offer a romantic, floral scent that capture her style and elegance. With her latest fragrance, Look, that is also true. But this fragrance is a little more bold and modern than her others.
Look is captivating, confident scent that offers a variety of complex layers of notes. At the top, you will find mandarin, lychee, greens and luscious green apple. The heart of the fragrance is with a burst of energeitc florals of lily, freesia and jasmine, while the base of the fragrance is a sensual mixture of vanilla and musk with slight touches of patchouli and oakmoss.

If you are looking for a great Christmas gift for the man in your life, consider the classic cologne - Christian Dior Eau Sauvage.
It’s simple. It’s ageless. Originally launched in the 1960’s, Dior’s Eau Sauvage epitomized what a man’s citrus fragrance should be: clean, crisp, elegant and sexy at the same time.
To this day it remains widely regarded as one of the finest examples of its type ever created. The Eau Sauvage has great lasting power, sometimes lasting an entire day before its completely gone. Suffice to say Dior hit a homerun with this one. Nearly 50 years have passed, and the ball has yet to touch the ground.
An extremely effective blend of citrus, jasmine, oakmoss and vetiver, Eau Sauvage manages to be elegant but still playful. A characteristic that undoubtedly has been instrumental in its five decade long survival, the appeal it holds for both the young and the old. Light, refreshing but with a definite edge, Eau Sauvage has managed to withstand the test of time, unchanged and just as effective as the first day it was launched.
Eau Sauvage packaging is simple. It consists of a glass bottle with a silver lid, adorned with swirly edges around the glass and with a silver band in the middle sporting the fragrance’s name and maker in black writing.
Since it’s been around for so long, Christian Dior Eau Sauvage is also very affordable. Visit Fragrance Direct to find Eau Savage cologne, aftershave, soap, shower gel, deodorant and other products.

Though many people turn to a heavier fragrance in the cooler months, others love to have the fresh, light scents all year long. If you are looking for something light that reminds you of the fragrances of the warm summer, Calvin Klein One Summer is a fantastic choice.
Unisex fragrances often make as big an impact as their feminine and masculine counterparts, and CK’s One Summer hasn’t been the exception. The One Summer limited edition Eau de Toilette is immediately recognizable through its packaging, making use of vibrant summer colors to accentuate its nature. Calvin Klein is no amateur in the fragrance business and One Summer is a testament to its expertise on the field.
Made up of watermelon, waterfall accord, watermint, cucumber and blonde woods notes, One Summer is the perfect scent to accentuate that fun summer ambiance. Fruity and very distinctive, CK has produced a unisex fragrance that doesn’t feel unisex, but rather tailored individually for each wearer, sex be damned.
Almost chameleonic in its properties, One Summer’s fruity base shows a particularly feminine approach in design, but once it dries down to a relatively basic woodsy scent, its masculine inclinations become quite apparent.
This fresh cocktail of scents is the perfect addition to the summer experience. Similar to its 1994 predecessor, One Summer is a very nice scent; well blended, cleverly packaged and ultimately great if you are looking for a light, youthful fragrance. You can purchase the 100 ml spray for just £19.99 at Fragrance Direct.
