While gifting brings joy to our loved ones, it can also be one of the hardest parts of the holiday season. Whether you’re wondering what to get for your other half or for that coworker you’re not too close with, Ritzy has got you covered with our end-of-year gift guide. Deck the halls with these fantastic presents this Christmas 2022.
Tory Burch
Essence of Dreams is the new fragrance collection from Tory Burch designed to instill optimism and unity. Guided by Tory’s journey and her mission to inspire everyone to live with character, beauty and confidence, each scent is a reminder of the power of dreams. Together, we can visualize a brighter future-one with more love, freedom joy, magic and peace.
Aesop
As the festive season approaches, Aesop’s 2022-23 collection of gift kits ‘The Poetry of Place’ is shaped by the brand’s philosophy of design, with each kit evoking the form of a particular Aesop store. Every one of these is an endeavour to bring something of merit, worth, and pleasure to the neighbourhood in which it sits. These newly launched seasonal gift kits tell stories of local culture and neighbourly connection — a dialogue facilitated through a considered and creative approach to the built environment, which pays close attention to the routines and customs that define varied cultural settings. Contained within each kit is an assortment of complementary formulations, forming a gesture that will reverberate across time zones and terrains.
Acqua di Parma
This season, gift sets are dedicated to Colonia (HK$1,365) and Colonia Essenza (HK$1,365) as well as Blu Mediterraneo (HK$1,010), presented in boxes with marbled decorations that combine the traditional Christmas nuances of green, red and gold with Acqua di Parma’s trademark in radiant yellow, and the latter packaged in marbled paper inspired by the colours of the sea and the holiday season.
Colonia, an iconic fragrance whose sunny notes reflect the security of one’s roots and the values that really matter, and Colonia Essenza, a sophisticated fragrance with a woody, vibrant and citrus accord. The sets are presented in gift boxes complemented with 100ml Eau de Cologne, 75ml Shower Gel and 50ml Deodorant spray.
The Blu Mediterraneo gift boxes are presented in three variations with a 75ml Eau de Toilette, 40ml Shower Gel and 50ml Body Lotion. Share the vibrant vitality of the Italian Mediterranean with the sunny and relaxing Arancia di Capri, the irresistible Fico d’Amalfi and the intensely regenerating Mirto di Panarea.

Serge Lutens
In 1992, Serge Lutens laid the foundations for his own take on perfumery by creating “Féminité du bois”. Through the dedicated scent of cedarwood and the wisdom inspired by Atlas Mountains in Morocco, Serge Lutens subverted the norms and led to an olfactory shock with a unisex fragrance. Serge Lutens created his first boutique “Salons du Palais Royal” in the same year, kick-starting an olfactory revolution that would take the fragrance world by storm. The very special bottles, Flacons de table, were then launched and only available from Serge Lutens’ Palais Royal shop in Paris.
