Crazy Good Gifts - a Neiman Marcus Gift Guide!

Blogger Event

Fun fact: There are only 32 more days until Christmas. Are you like me? Do you wait 'til the last minute to get gifts? My problem is that I'm perpetually searching for the perfect gift for each person, which I inevitably never find, so I'm always rushing days before Christmas to find something to give. I'm doing much better (and starting much earlier) this year, but for those of you like the Melissa of previous years, I'm here to help - welcome to my Neiman Marcus gift guide!

Hit the jump for unique and fun gifts for foodies, fashionistas, and fathers alike! (And lots are under $100!)

Welcome to my Fragrance Wardrobe!

Nothing to Disclose

I've got a bit of a fragrance problem. I don't tend to stick to one fragrance–I have a 'fragrance wardrobe' that I can pull from so I can always wear a scent that fits my mood for the day. Still, there are definitely some favorites that get more wear than others, and that's what I'm sharing with you today! 

I should mention that I don't tend to tend to wear typical 'girl' scents. I stay away from gourmand scents with sugar, vanilla, or chocolate notes. Aquatic scents aren't really my style either- they tend to smell far too sweet on my skin. What do I like? WOOD. I loooove deep, masculine woody scents, and anything with oud is sure to be a quick favorite for me! (as you'll see below) I also don't like wearing what everyone else is wearing - if someone else in the room is wearing it, I tend to shy away from it. Sure, there are exceptions, but for the most part, I could be considered a slight scent snob.

What are your favorite scents? Read below to find out about a few of mine!
