It makes perfect scents

Drench your body in sweet-smelling lotions and potions...

Recently, I’ve ditched wearing perfume. This is only temporary, though – it’s just that at this time of year I like wearing heavier scents and I find the initial spritzing overpowering.

So, I’ve discovered that a great way of wearing a strong perfume is to use the body lotion instead. You get a softer version of your favourite perfume, it lasts all day and the bottles look really posh on your bathroom shelf.

Here are three that I love and that deserve a place on your Christmas wish list: Lovely Sarah Jessica Parker Body Butter, £19.50; Chanel No5 Body Lotion, £45 for 250ml; Missoni Body Butter, £48.
