Review (5/5): Truly perfect as a 60th wedding anniversary present
I bought this as a present for A SIXTIETH wedding anniversary.
As sometimes happens, the couple in question did not feel they needed any presents , and what they asked for was presence at their house for the celebrations. While presence trumps presents every day in my book, it still feels strange turning up without a gift.
This perfume was the perfect compromise for our hostess, as the bottle has a lovely diamond cut glass lid, and it is a perfect yet modest ornament to her dressing table. It also means that in their sixtieth year she has a new perfume to wear. I was particularly touched because she already had some Yardley perfumes, but was pleased to have this new addition.
