Christmas Gift Ideas for Women Date: 22/11/12 Rating: Advantages: it doesn't need to be expensive Disadvantages: some ladies are too picky! Christmas is my favourite time of the year and I absolutely love shopping for presents for the ladies/girls in my family. Sometimes it can be difficult to come up with new ideas for presents and I admit that year after year, some family members receive the same thing from me. I am happy to keep buying as long as I know for certain that it is something that they will like. ~Perfume~ Perfume, in my opinion, is tricky to buy for someone else. It is all good and well knowing that your sister or niece likes sweet or floral perfumes but actually choosing one is difficult and if they don't like it then it may be a total waste. I personally love receiving perfume as a gift and have been rarely disappointed by any purchases I have been given. At this time of year, Boots have lots of lovely gift sets on offer and these normally include a shower gel or body lotion as an additional extra item at no extra cost. This year I had to source a nice perfume for my Mum as a gift from Dad and swayed away from her usual Boss Femme and Miss Dior in favour of the new YSL perfume called Manifesto. I have bought my MIL Eternity Moment and my best friend Britney Midnight Fantasy, Perfume can be a lovely gift
