This is definitely a case of buying a fragrance just for the bottle. For the lead-up to Christmas, Comme des Garcons have released a special edition version of their most popular fragrance. Comme des Garcons 2 ‘Glitter’ comes in a purple glittery bottle, and although all of their fragrances are puportedly unisex, we think this one would look nicest on our dressing table.

With notes of amber, cumin, incense and cedarwood, it’s not subtle, and would suit someone who wants their fragrance to get them noticed – and who likes their perfume bottles to stand out, too. The 50ml eau de parfum costs £44.50, and is available at major central London department stores (and the Leeds Harvey Nichols).
