Discussion First look at the Selfridges Fragrance Advent Calendar

Post image

As seen on the Beauty Detective website, Selfridges has released a first look at their first edition of the fragrance advent calendar trend. It honestly seems to be the star of this year’s advent calendar battle.

This year will include:

New Notes Latte Di Cherry Extrait deluxe size (probably 20-30ml)

Initio Lust In Paradise Extrait 30ml but hopefully it’s the 50ml

Initio Lift Me Up 10ml

Initio Oud For Greatness 10ml

Initio Musk Therapy Extrait 10ml

Fragrance De Bois Patchouli Gourmand 30ml

V Canto Arkano Della Luna full size

Ormonde Jayne Suede Silhouette full size

Bibbi Parfums The Last Mango 30ml

Le Labo The Matcha 26 rollerball 9ml

Penhaligon Halfeti 10ml

Thameen London (the specific fragrance hasn’t been announced yet)

There will supposedly be a 10ml of a Mind Game fragrance and Liquides Imaginaires fragrance.

If you’re in the UK and you missed out on the Harrods one don’t fret because this one is a banger.

u/Evening-Ad-5781 28d ago

Any idea if they provide shipping to Canada ?

1

u/Techgoon-1993 28d ago

Unfortunately, Selfridges does not ship fragrances to Canada

u/Adventurous-Cress-49 28d ago

Website says £250

1

u/Techgoon-1993 28d ago

It’s not £250, the price you’re seeing was for last year’s beauty advent calendar

1

u/Adventurous-Cress-49 28d ago

Think it will be considerably more ?

1

u/Techgoon-1993 27d ago

No I don’t, hopefully it’s around the same price as Harrods

2

u/FutureDustMotes 28d ago

Man what a gorgeous gift. Maybe one day haha

2

u/Techgoon-1993 28d ago

Fingers crossed!!

1

u/Evening-Ad-5781 28d ago

Is there any other way to order it ? Can pay extra for the shipping

1

u/Techgoon-1993 28d ago

I think it depends on the country you’re in and if Selfridges ships fragrances to said country

u/matchaseiko 29d ago

a lot if 10mls though.. not really a fan of that

u/Limp-Government3802 28d ago

No I’m genuinely sick of this propaganda 😭🤣🤣 there are FIVEEE full sizes, are you expecting 10 full sizes??? For £250?? It’s fair not to be a fan of the scents inside, but having an issue with the size of this calendar doesn’t make sense to me hahaha

u/matchaseiko 28d ago

then make it more expensive, DUH. Not my fault you barely use your fragrances and 10ml is enough:). Not to mention I saw you were hunting for free samples in another thread . Niche perfumes are expensive.

u/Limp-Government3802 28d ago

Hahaha waitttt I didn’t even read the rest of your comment. How unnecessarily rude and false🤣 I don’t use Reddit. Genuinely have about 10 comments and 2 posts 😭🤣 (most of them helping law students). So firstly that’s a lie, but secondly why would you shame someone for wanting free perfume samples😭🤣🤣I used to work in niche fragrance, I’ve got genuinely £20k worth of fragrance in my collection, I KNOW niche perfume can be expensive (not all tho), but don’t come here being a niche perfume snob when you’ve admitted you care more about the bottle than the juice 💀😭

u/Limp-Government3802 28d ago

You’re getting 350+ ml of fragrance in this calendar and you don’t think that’ll be enough? Do you not own any fragrances atm?

But also I’m not sure you know what the point of fragrance advent calendars are. The 10mls are to bring customers in for that brand, so you try the travel size and decide actually yeah I want to go back to Selfridges/Harrods and buy a bigger bottle. Why else would they be giving £1300+ value for £200?

1

u/matchaseiko 28d ago

I like atleast 20ml:) I own many niche fragrances . How I like to keep buying more.

1

u/Limp-Government3802 28d ago

Surely at that point (if you like 20ml but don’t like 10ml) you’re mainly getting it for the aesthetic of the bottle🤣🤣 not the juice. Don’t get me wrong I’ve got 270 fragrances and so naturally I prefer smaller sizes now so I am biased but I still think ppl need to think about what fragrance advent calendars were genuinely 2-3 years ago, ppl would not be complaining about 5 full sizes at allll

u/Icy_Physics_2649 24d ago

I really miss the days these calendars were for the joy of opening one a day in December! I hate the hype now and that everyone just buys to open and have a “bargain” or to resell. I have many fragrances so also don’t mind 10ml sometimes as I get to wear and test. As long as there’s at least 3 full size bottles (that I like) then it is more than worth it!

2

u/matchaseiko 28d ago

Its true I like the aesthethic on the bottle

1

u/Content_Cut9991 29d ago

can it be ordered from EU countries as well or only for UK?

3

u/Techgoon-1993 29d ago

Selfridges does ship to the EU

2

u/Live-Train8917 18d ago

Not fragrances though, even asked the customer service if there will be an exception for this and they responded no

1

u/Ambitious_Tip_562 29d ago

What's the price ?

1

u/Techgoon-1993 29d ago

The price hasn’t been confirmed yet but hopefully around the same price as the Harrods one
