The Perfect Fragrance to Gift From Sephora for Every Member of Your Friend Group
Let your bestie's personality guide you to finding their new signature scent.
Fragrance is having a major moment; between the rise of #perfumetok (the social media tag has amassed more than 1.4 million posts), and new must-have scents launching at what feels like a breakneck pace, the fragrance category is currently that girl. So it's no surprise that perfume is topping many of my BFF's holiday wishlists. To shop for them, I'll be heading to Sephora, where all the trending scents and limited-edition fragrance gift sets can be found in one convenient place.
Sure, standing in front of a wall of gorgeous-looking and yummy-smelling bottles can be overwhelming, but here's my tip for finding the perfect giftable option: choose one that embodies the energy of the recipient. For the energetic and sassy friend? Sephora definitely has a warm and spicy perfume to match her aura. For the one who's always catching flights? She'll be oh-so-grateful for a set of TSA-approved minis.

If you have a bestie who is sweeter than sugar—you know, the gal pal who goes above and beyond to make you feel loved and would drop any and everything when you need her—this perfume will flawlessly match her disposition. It emits a sugary swirl of pink marshmallows, whipped vanilla, coconut, and strawberries.
Some have an inherent radiance that invites good vibes and attention the moment they walk into a room. This warm floral will further enhance that bestie's aura thanks to a head-turning blend of lavender, bright orange blossom, and sensual musk.
Do you know someone with an apartment that looks like a page out of a home decor magazine, prefers cozy movie nights at home, and is good at every craft they try? If so, Glossier You is essentially her—bottled. The effortlessly clean scent combines an airy mix of pink pepper, iris, and musky ambrox that will meld with her body chemistry to smell one-of-a-kind.
Few perfumes have gone as viral as Phlur Vanilla Skin, so there's no doubt your social-media-savvy friend has had her eye on this for ages. Sophisticated and alluring, this perfume pulls people in with creamy woods, sugar crystals, and, of course, vanilla.
Mark my words: this new perfume from Miu Miu is going to become the next cult-classic—and your fashion-forward friend will love telling people she started wearing it before it was cool. The combination of wild strawberry, gardenia, and brown sugar creates a sweet sexy potion that settles in a rich vanilla accord. Simply put, it screams It-girl.
We all have at least one indecisive friend who takes forever to choose what to eat and what to wear (Hi, it's me!). This kit will give her plenty of options to experiment with, and once she ~finally~ selects her favorite, she can use the included voucher to get a free full-sized bottle.
The friend who schedules everything around her sweat sessions will love this body-mist set that will have her feeling extra fresh and smelling delectable after every workout. The set comes with five mini bottles of Sol de Janeiro's bestsellers–perfect for stashing in her gym bag.
Tom Ford Mini Lost Cherry & Soleil Blanc Eau de Parfum Perfume Gift Set
This luxe set includes two dreamy Tom Ford scents—Lost Cherry, warm, cozy, and perfect for wintry vacations; and Soleil Blanc, which is essentially sunshine in a bottle—that will keep your bestie smelling amazing, no matter where she is in the world.
