The gift just about any girl would want to get

If I had to name one of my best qualities, my gift-giving skills would be at the top of the list. I carefully consider my intended recipient’s likes and dislikes, as well as their hobbies, lifestyle and their proclivity toward treating themselves. (The less they splurge, the more inclined I am to do so.) In most cases, I try to come up with something fancy that they will use (or at least appreciate)—and that they would probably never, ever buy for themselves. I reserve designer goods (such as these INCREDIBLE Saint Laurent cocktail stirrers) for those who are into fashion, but it’s no surprise that I tend to lean toward beauty-based gifts. Why? Because there’s literally something for everyone, and it’s easy to narrow down the options based on the person I’m shopping for.

Although I usually shy away from perfume (unless it’s for someone who has a ride-or-die signature scent they would never stray from—and in that case this gift is a slam dunk), there is a way to side-step this rule: Hair perfume. Significantly less of a commitment than an actual “juice,” hair scents are a great way to give a luxurious gift one probably wouldn’t treat themselves to (unless they’re me). Oh, and they are a fraction of the price of their eau de parfum counterparts.

If I had to stick with one scent for the rest of my life, this would probably be it.

If this sounds like something someone on your gift list would like, I suggest checking out Byredo’s hair perfumes. Available in all of the brand’s best-selling scents, these mists impart enough fragrance for you and those in close proximity to smell without being overpowering. They also hang around—and do a great job of covering up any unsavory odors if your (or their) hair isn’t squeaky clean. Byredo even offers trios of minis (in “woody” and “floral” scents) and this increases your chances of giving them the best gift of all: Discovering a scent that becomes their signature.
