I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since I last attended the 2012 Christmas collection preview of Crabtree & Evelyn. ZOMG I haz AGED! -cue, grouchy sulky frown-
Thankfully, seeing all the colourful floral offerings has put me in somewhat of a better mood – it could also be the yummy cookies and the therapeutic aromas floating around the brand’s new flagship store located at Ngee Ann City, Basement 1.
Zomg, now this is what I call a Christmas tree of goodies – it’s gifts galore!A floral themed Christmas collection – coffret sets and yummy biscuit / cookie collectionsRight: The Great Escapes Sets (in Rosewater, Lily, Iris, Lavender, Pomegranate, ARgan & Grapeseed versions) – $43 each set (Shower gel, body lotion, hand cream and EDT)
On the left: Seemingly plain packages of potpourri… when unpacked, actually make really pretty centerpieces on your living room table once you put them into a nice bowl.
Available in two versions – Noel and Glided Chestnuts Fragranced Botanicals – $48 each
P.S. check out the man-chest of the man holding the bowl out for me lol.
These are really pretty room fragrances – Am particularly loving the one with the maple porcelain diffuser (although I’m not sure how long it’s survive under my reign of klutziness)L: Glided Chestnut and Noel Home Fragrance Spray, 100ml – $30 each
Centre & Right: Glided Chestnut and Noel Porcelain Diffuser, 180 – $88, Candles of varying sizes, 25-50 hours of burn time – $38-70
Right: Evelyn Rose Ultimate Luxuries – $178I love all things fruity and citrusy, so the Tarocco Orange collection is one of my favorites.L: Mini Hand Therapy Samplers (in Floral and Fantasy variations) – $30 for a box of 3R: Evelyn Rose Ultimate Luxuries – $178 (shower gel, body lotion, hand cream, EDP)
L: Somerset Meadow Luxury Box – $98 (shower gel, body lotion, hand cream, towel)R: Summer Hill Luxury Box – $98 (shower gel, body lotion, hand cream, towel)
Look, it’s Gingy! Where’s Shrek? (well, there were some horrid green swamp things present, or rather, not present, at the event)
Subtle bitching aside, you should really get yourself a box / tin of these seasonal cookies. If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll know that I’ve been pigging out on their Triple Choc Chunk cookies ($20) nom nom nom. If you prefer their traditional flavours, they’ve also got gift sets of dual tins in a box for $35.
Last but certainly not the least – the perennial favourite – the Deluxe Hand Therapy Sampler 2 – $78 for a box of 9. I’d love to buy these and give them out as gifts to 9 separate people, but the hoarder in me demands that I keep it in its pristine condition and never open it up. ever. never.
I hate being a hoarder. lol.
Check these out at the new Crabtree & Evelyn Flagship store, Ngee Ann City, B1-36/36A
