Give the gift of a beautiful scent this Christmas
Estée Lauder Beautiful
Beautiful is one of Estée Lauder’s most successful fragrances of all time. You will never tire of its many floral notes – lilac, orange blossom, tuberose, carnation and rose – which romance the olfactory senses and set the mood for love. In this exquisite pack you will find a Beautiful Eau de Parfum spray, 30ml, Perfumed Body Lotion, 100ml, and Eau de Parfum Spray Pen, 8ml. The spray pen is one of my favourite inventions for the party season because it will fit into any evening purse – no matter how small.
Look out for the new Beautiful fragrance called Beautiful Love, on counters in February next year.

This is a wonderful way to introduce a young woman to the house of Guerlain, one of the world’s most renowned perfumeries.
