Shopper reviews
Shoppers have praised the Boots calendar for being “beautifully packaged.” One person said: “Very happy with this advent calendar which allows me to try different perfumes at an affordable price.”
A second added: “Thought I'd treat myself to this advent calendar as I couldn't decide what new perfume I wanted. Beautifully packaged and delicious perfumes and candle. So pleased and would highly recommend.”
A third shopper said: “I bought this as a treat to myself - so I've tried it all. I love perfume and have a lot. I'm always happy to try new ones and love a niche fragrance. Of course, fragrance is very personal and can vary from person to person - however there are definitely a few that you'd give to a 12-year-old. Overall, this is good value, and it's really nicely presented - I'd be happy to receive as a gift.”
Another shopper commented: “I bought this advent calendar for a friend who loves her perfume. The calendar is beautifully presented.”
While most feedback was positive, some shoppers were less satisfied. One said: “Great items all great fragrance apart the the Sabrina carpenter lemon pie which does indeed smell like you are a whole lemon meringue pie it's very sickly.” Yet another praised: “Wonderful selection of fragrances to test and very convenient travel sizes to carry in the purse. It also includes a full size scent. Overall a great value.”
