“Mmmm, thanks darling, that’s exactly the perfume or aftershave that I’ve always desired.” Except it wasn’t, and now you’re left with a fragrance that doesn’t suit you and that dream scent tantalisingly out of reach. Breathe deep, relax, and grab hold of your favourites in Fragrance Mad’s January Sale at slashed-up bargain prices. Replace an old favourite or kickstart that New Year’s Resolution of reinventing yourself by revolutionising your scent cupboard. Amazing deals include: for women, 30ml of Britney Spears Fantasy at just £10.99 and 50ml of Christian Lacroix C’est la Fete for a mind-busting £9.99; and for men, Issey Miyake’s L’Eau D’Issey is only £39.99 for a 125ml bottle, while Carolina Herrera’s 212 Sexy Men 30ml will set you back a handsome £13.99. There are many more great bargains to be had so head to the sale now and beat the queues (plus, of course, in another bonus the queues of which I speak are merely metaphorical, not raging snakes filled with angry shoppers).

Stock is limited, so  blow away the odours of a lazy Christmas spent sweating over the turkey or in front of the telly, and smell like a wonderful and majestic leopard for New Year.
