Unique Custom Fragrance Gifts for Valentine's Day

This Valentine's Day, rather than handing out celebrity fragrance sets from the mall, why not show your loved ones exactly how special they are to you by giving them unique custom fragrance gifts? There are several websites online where you can order high quality custom fragrances, and several of them are running specials right now for Valentine's Day.

Ayala Moriel Custom Fragrance

Ayala Moriel Parfums is an upscale Vancouver-based perfume house that uses only the finest natural ingredients. Ayala Sender, the nose behind these fragrances, has created a line of ready-to-wear perfumes based on memories of her Mediterranean childhood, but she also offers a custom perfume for people who demand an absolutely unique scent. Ms. Sender states, "When I make a perfume for a person, I help them to translate who they are into a beautiful perfume that is as complex and multifaceted as they are."

The process takes 6-8 weeks and starts with a fragrance questionnaire that asks questions about your taste and lifestyle in order to narrow down the suitable notes for your customized scent. After that a personal interview with Ms. Sender leads to the creation of three potential scent samples; the client chooses his or her favorite, any necessary changes are made, and the final custom fragrance is sent in a beautiful crystal glass flacon. A solid version of the fragrance is also included within a silver compact. This custom fragrance package costs $450.00 (although the company is Canadian, all prices are in U.S. dollars).

If you can't wait 6-8 weeks for a custom fragrance, Ms. Sender is also offering a limited edition Valentine's Day fragrance called Roses et Chocolat. It is described as a gourmand or oriental/spicy perfume with notes of allspice, amber, benzoin, cocoa, nutmeg, pepper and rose. This perfume costs $110.00 for an 8 ml flacon and is also available as a flavored tea. Ayala Moriel fragrances can be ordered from www.ayalamoriel.com.
