I had a sneak peek at Arran Sense of Scotland’s luxury fragrance advent calendar ahead of December, and there’s one scent in particular that’s going to be Christmas must-have
With more and more beauty advent calendars launching this month, it can be tricky to know which ones are worth spending your money on. I’ve already been wowed by LookFantastic’s advent calendar and our Beauty Editor has raved about the Liberty offering , but if you’re looking for something a little different, I’ve found just the one.
The Arran Sense of Scotland Perfume and Fragrance Advent Calendar is a great pick for anyone who loves indulging in a little pampering, and is packed full of perfume and fragrance products that will elevate your beauty routine. It’s priced at £85, but there’s more than £180 worth of products inside, including two limited edition scents.

And it was one of these limited edition scents that really caught my eye when I had a sneaky look inside. The Amber, Myrrh and Tonka candle was a stand out for me, and has a gorgeous festive scent that’s warm, rich and luxurious, and lasts in the air long after you’ve blown it out.
Apart from the standout limited edition scents, the Perfume and Fragrance Advent Calendar has 24 other items inside, including perfumes, shower gels, body lotions and plenty of other products. The contents of the calendar is perfect for creating a relaxing bathtime set up, with scented candles adding to the ambience and everything you need to relax and unwind after a long, cold winter day.
The calendar itself feels super premium, with a heavy, sturdy design that stands up all by itself and beautiful festive illustrations across it. Each door is uniquely shaped based on the product behind the doors, and you can fold the calendar up like a book and pop it on a shelf or sideboard in between openings so it won’t take up too much space over the festive season.
If you’ve never heard of Arran Sense of Scotland, it’s a family run brand that’s located on the Isle of Arran, with all its products made using the soft, mineral-rich water that surrounds the island and inspired by its natural setting. As with everything on their website, the calendar’s contents are all made right there on the Isle of Arran, and are inspired by the island’s natural setting.
The Perfume and Fragrance Advent Calendar is great for those who are new to the brand, giving you a chance to try everything, or for long term fans who want to top up old favourites and get their hands on the new limited edition scents. It has a little bit of everything from Arran Sense of Scotland’s bath, body and home products, and is perfect for beauty lovers who want to try something new outside of the usual mascaras and serums found in regular beauty advent calendars.
