Marc Jacobs Fragrances

Highly regarded around the world for his popular apparel and accessories collections, fashion designer Marc Jacobs made quite a splash in 2001 when he debuted his first fragrance for women. The eponymous scent became an instant classic, appealing to women of all age ranges with its lush floral arrangement. Jacobs followed this success with Marc Jacobs for Men in 2002. Other women's fragrances soon followed, including Blush, Blush Intense, I Love Marc and Daisy.

Not to be outdone by his own ever-growing list of bestselling scents, Jacobs added something new and unusual to the mix: limited edition collections of scents defined by various seasons. The first, entitled Summer Splash, included Rain, Grass and Cotton.

The second, called Autumn Splash, included Ivy, Violet and Amber. Several other scents were eventually added to the decadent Splash range, including Cucumber, Orange, Fig and Gardenia. Jacobs also added a Splash Sorbet collection to the repertoire, which included Pear, Basil and Grapefruit.

Marc Jacobs Perfume Gift Sets

While not all of his fragrances are packaged and sold in gift sets, several of Marc Jacobs's most popular scents are. Gift sets are a great choice for anyone who particularly loves a specific scent. They often offer better value for your money, and include several products laced with the fragrance in question. For example, sets may include body lotions, shower gels, dusting powders, deodorants and miniature perfumes. Occasionally designers may include limited edition goodies in the gift set to entice consumers; these specific items are not usually available on their own and can only be obtained with a gift set purchase.

Not only are Marc Jacobs perfume gift sets readily available, they're usually easy to find at a discounted price. This can be very attractive when financial burdens take their toll – a reasonably priced gift set still offers consumers the opportunity to give a luxurious present without going over their desired budget.

These sets are destined to be favorites during the holiday season and beyond:

Daisy Holiday Gift Set: Daisy, Marc Jacobs's most recent fragrance, is especially popular with the younger set. The Daisy set will delight anyone who loves to layer the fresh fragrance – it includes full size and miniature eau de toilettes, a body butter and a convenient rollerball to tuck into a purse or clutch.

Marc Jacobs for Women Gift Set: Fans of the designer's first fragrance will be pleased with this set, which includes an eau de parfum spray, a body lotion and a shower gel.

Beauty By Marc Set: Dedicated Marc Jacobs fans may be difficult to please, but this set might do the trick. Limited edition and available only at Sephora, it contains travel sizes of the original eau de parfum and body lotion, plus a miniature lip compact filled with a bold red lip gloss. While Jacobs hasn't yet entered the cosmetic world, this little piece might be a sign of things to come!

Marc Jacobs Women's Gift Set: Here's an easy way to please fans of Marc Jacobs's glamorous-yet-costly handbags. This set, which includes an eau de parfum spray, a body lotion and a deluxe miniature perfume, is packaged in a sassy black signature tote.

DIY Gift Sets

Since some of Marc Jacobs's fragrances have been discontinued, it may prove difficult to purchase them in gift sets. However, some limited edition sets may be available from time to time on eBay. If you're in search of a particular fragrance that isn't available in traditional gift sets, though, you might consider putting together a personalized gift basket. Many, if not most, of Marc Jacobs's scents, both current and discontinued, are available online at discount perfume boutiques. A few of them placed in a decorative basket makes an impressive gift set for fragrance connoisseurs.
