Fragrance Sampler Sets for Him and Her

One of the most common questions I get asked by my customers is "What does the Outspoken by Fergie fragrance smell like?  Is it any good?"  or "I really want to give my husband a cologne as a gift but I'm not sure which one. Which ones smell good?".  I'll be the first to admit it -- I'm very bad at describing smells.  So, I usually tell the customer which fragrances sell the best.  Some of my customers are even reluctant to purchases any fragrance at all because they can't smell them first.

For these reasons, I love the new idea that AVON has come up with in Campaign 23.  AVON has created fragrance sampler sets for both him and her. Each sampler set includes 8 deluxe trial-size sprays plus a coupon for a free full-size bottle of one of the brands featured in the sampler set.  This is how it works:

1.  Purchase an AVON Fragrance Favorites Sampler Set in Campaign 23 for $23.  They can be found on pages 12 for him and page 13 for her.

2.  Try the fragrances and choose your favourite.

3.  Redeem the coupon for a free full-size bottle of one of the scents in the sampler set.  Coupon may be redeemed beginning in Campaign 25 until Campaign 2 of 2013.

I think this is a great idea because not only does everyone have different tastes when it comes to fragrances, but also because fragrances smell different on different people.  

And my favourite part is that the sampler sets are boxed.  So why not give them as gifts this holidays season?  They make great stocking-stuffers as well!!

Made Your List and Checked It Twice?

I don't know about you but no matter how hard I try, I always manage to wait until the last minute to do my Christmas shopping.  In my experience, this leads me to always forget at least someone on my list.  How embarrassing!!!  

I am going to share a great trick with you that has saved me from embarrassment on multiple occasions.  It's really simple.  All you have to do is keep multi-purpose gifts on hand.  That's it.  As you run out the door, you can choose a gift from your stash and arrive relaxed instead of stressed from trying to squeeze in a quick stop at the very busy mall.
