The floral fragrance is presented in a signature Marc Jacobs daisy bottle, complete with petals and gold trim.

We reviewed the Marc Jacobs daisy drops fragrance capsules in this exact scent and our tester said: “We picked up on a sparkling floral fragrance with sweet, fresh and powdery elements.”

Hugo Boss Boss the scent magnetic for her, eau de parfum: Was £95, now £64.80, Amazon.co.uk

This musky eau de parfum pick has a purse-friendly price tag at Amazon ahead of Black Friday. Plus, the discounted bottle in question is a generous 100ml size. The scent is a combination of amber fragrance notes, including ambrette seeds, and osmanthus flower, and it’s presented in an opulent-looking purple glass bottle with a metallic lid.

Gucci guilty black, eau de toilette: Was £93, now £42.99, Theperfumeshop.com

Although this is billed as a scent for men, we think the woody fragrance has unisex appeal. What’s especially tempting, though, is the massive £50 discount you can bag on this designer buy. The eau de toilette contains an earthy, citrus and floral blend of lavender, patchouli and orange flower, while its green and black bottle boasts the signature Gucci interlocking G’s.
