Scent of a woman:
The most intimate of them all, perfumes are always a great option for brides, especially if you have been buddies since childhood. Choose a bottle full of opulence from a bewildering range of fragrances. We love Bulgari’s Rose Goldea that is inspired by Cleopatra. To keep a feminine touch, it combines the base notes of radiant rose and musk topped by pomegranates, sandalwood and olibanum. Also, L’Interdit by Givenchy is for the one who defies convention. L’Interdit bottles a floral essence of orange blossom, jasmine and tuberose with dark undertones of vetiver and patchouli. Rs 7650 for 50ml Bulgari Rose Goldea(bulgari.com).
Rs 9,650 for 80ml Givenchy L’Interdit( givenchy.com).
Sip O’Wine:
You can never go wrong with a classic bottle of wine, but for a change, you can steal the show by arriving with Rombauer Chardonnay Magnum that offers a tantalising aroma of ripe yellow peach, meyer lemon and chamomile with hints of clove and vanilla. The flavours blend seamlessly, complemented by a creamy round-mouth feel that will leave your pal wanting more than a sip.
Rs 3,000 (approx). In select stores.
