One stop luxury shopping.
Sure, we’re still in the midst of figuring out our Halloween costume and our home-for-the-holidays travel has yet to be booked. But whether we’re ready or not, the festive season is almost upon us and it’s time to start thinking about gifting in a major way. Holiday gift givers take note — there are two words that are vital to the festive season gifting process, which are sure to save time, energy and guarantee a smile on that special someone’s face: gift set.
Gift sets are the true unsung heroes of gift giving, offering a tailor-made array of products — usually ones the recipient didn’t know they wanted yet — grouped into a single lovely arrangement. Multiple gifts are ticked off in one swoop without the hours spent dodging in and out of stores and braving Christmastime crowds. And because gift sets typically come courtesy of the luxury brands that recipients (and gift givers too) already love, they’re a wonderful way to integrate a small smattering of perceived lavishness into an occasion without actually taking out a loan.
In addition to the convenience that gift sets so lovingly bring to the actual art of shopping and ordering, they also remove the guess work of creating a multi-item package for the persnickety person on your list. Because who wants a sad face at Christmas lunch?
Our current gift set obsession? Giorgio Armani’s Si Fragrance Christmas Set ($199), a luxurious, chic beauty offering that will delight loved ones at holiday time.
Courtesy of a 100 ml bottle of Si eau de perfume, a 75 ml shower gel and a 75 ml body lotion, the Si Christmas Gift Set takes the guess work out of gifting. Si celebrates the independent spirit of the modern woman with an elegant, simple scent featuring blackcurrant essence, a hint of patchouli, rose and freesia with a light musk undertone. In true Armani style, the fragrance is feminine and sophisticated, offering a bit of mystery to the wearer while still creating a presence through scent.
And in the true luxurious Italian style of Giorgio Armani, Si’s eau de perfume bottle is itself an aesthetic crowd pleaser for all arbiters on your list who appreciate design and good taste. Featuring a sculptural black cap inspired by modern art and a chic minimalist glass bottle that subtly allows the fragrance’s hue to shine through, the Si bottle will add a treasured home décor piece to any vanity.
You’ll be the hero of the holidays.
