Best Christmas gifts 2024: wellness, fragrances, grooming and more

The Yves Saint Laurent Libre Eau de Parfum is a classic when it comes to the perfect Christmas fragrance gift. It features vibrant top notes of Tangerine, Neroli and aromatic Lavender exhilarate, revealing a sun-drenched heart of Jasmine and radiant Moroccan Orange Blossom. A creamy base of Madagascan Vanilla and White Musks wraps the composition in effortless sophistication.

JOY by Dior Eau de Parfum Intense is a beautiful fragrance with a radiant burst of flowers and a joyful trail of exultant floral notes. The dazzling light of juicy Citrus blends with the colourful shine of Grasse Rose and Jasmine, heightened by an enveloping woody echo of Sandalwood tinged with Vanilla. You know what they say - if you adore her, Dior her.

Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum Intense is an ambery woody fragrance with an extreme character. The fragrance is structured around an overdose of patchouli, warmed by an ambery accord of Vanilla absolute and Tonka Bean. A heart of rose and jasmine and the contrasting freshness of citrus add their notes to write this powerful score. It's a beautiful classic that will always be a winner.

Tom Ford's affection for London inspired this scent, and it encapsulates warmth, elegance and sensuality all in one fragrance. Featuring strong notes of tonka bean, vanilla, cocoa, dry fruit and sweet wood sap, it's a gorgeous scent for a loved one this festive season.

Launched in 2010, Aventus by Creed has quickly become one of the most popular fragrances for men. It's a cool, smokey scent with layers of fruity and woody notes, so it’s extremely versatile for everyday wear. If your loved hasn't got it already, this is what I'd recommend.

Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male is a light eau de toilette with an unconventional interpretation of masculinity, thanks to the inclusion of sweet, sensual vanilla combined with lavender – an unforgettable modern, fougere amber scent.

Whether you like it or not, the Dyson Airwrap will always be a staple for festive gift giving. 2024 has seen some gorgeous colourways released, including the stunning Strawberry Bronze and Blush Pink.

This is probably one of my favourite hair stylers I've reviewed this year, so I have to recommend it. The Bellissima Italia Prodigy is a ceramic-coated air styler that gives Dyson a run for its money, especially when it comes to the best Airwrap alternatives. All I'll say is that I'd be chuffed with this under the tree!

Featuring a function Ionic Jet technology, the Revamp Progloss Airstyle has four heat and two speed settings for the utmost control including a cool shot.

Engineered for ultimate styling control, the ghd Helios Professional Hair Dryer is the lightest and fastest of ghd’s range. As air enters through the patented etched grille of the hairdryer, its brushless motor delivers a 75mph airflow while an internal impeller reduces air turbulence.

The Owala bottle is another trend from 2024, especially since going viral on TikTok. It's the perfect gift if you're not really sure what to buy, especially as there are loads of colourways available. What makes it special is its patented FreeSip spout with a built-in straw that lets you sip or swig.

The Lumie Bodyclock Shine 300 is a brilliant device that will help the gift receiver rise easier and beat the winter blues.
