I admit, I am one of those procrastinators who declares, “I WILL do my holiday shopping early” only to be found scouring the stores for last minutes gifts. If you find yourself in a similar situation and are left wondering what to do, never fear, Benefiticon has your holidays covered with their new Crescent Row limited edition holiday seticon ($36).

Moms, grandmas, sisters, best friends, neighbors…everyone will be clamoring to get their hands on this perfect gift set of classic Benefit fragrances. (In fact, it’s currently out of stock online, but may still be available at benefit counters). This boxed set features four sweet scents from the Crescent Row line, a series of fragrances inspired by the daughters of Benefit founder Jean.

Benefit Crescent Row limited edition holiday set As is the tradition with all Benefit sets, these lovely, mini, gold martini shaker-shaped bottles come packaged in an adorably sweet Parisian style building front, with each door housing one of the bottles.Even better, this holiday season, a new lady has moved in on the block – and she is a vixen!

See & be seen Sasha is described as “classic urban luxury” and features an enticing mix of orange flower absolute, apricot, pink freesia, ylang ylang, tiare flower, white peony, jasmine sambac, crystal amber, liquid musk, and vanilla.

The entire adorably Crescent Row holiday set includes:

Benefit Crescent Row limited edition holiday set

my place or yours Gina – sinfully sexy woody oriental
ring my Bella – sweetly seductive fruity floral
see & be seen Sasha – daring & captivating floral
laugh with me LeeLee – flirty & feminine woody floral

All four fragrances are pretty fantastic, but my personal preferences are ring my Bella, a bright, charming, floral scent featuring pink rose petals, soft lily, summer daisy, Egyptian jasmine, creamy peony, white patchouli, vanilla tincture, and white musk; and the new gal, see & be seen Sasha. I adore jasmine and the jasmine sambac in see & be seen Sasha is very noticeable, making this heady scent my favorite.

While these two fragrances are much lighter, floral and have higher feminine notes, the other two, laugh with me LeeLee and my place or yours Gina are definitely the darker, seductresses. Deep and woody, these are far heavier in scent, but just as divine. If the others are like pink frilly lace, these two are like dark, elegant, thick velvet.

    1. A scratch and sniff screen – that would be handy!

  1. I still haven’t purchased a Benefit perfume yet but from what I know through sample spritzing, I love them! The packaging is perfect for gift giving. I know it’s holiday season, but I could see this being awesome to divvy up for a bachelorette party.

    1. That is such a cute idea! I know all my girlfriends would love these as bachelorette party gifts!

    2. Oh yeah, that’s a GREAT idea!

  2. Another great thing about these is that they are small enough to tuck into a purse, so you can easily freshen up the scent when you’re out and about!
