    Ooo! I have the Florence Gunnarson set and it is indeed fabulous and would make a great gift! I am sick in love with Wild Fern.

    Oh I adore those Perfumeria Gal lip balms. The violet is my fave. They're not much more than glorified vasoline and wax really, but those adorable art nouveau tins and the thouroughly enjoyable scents/flavors are just awesome. Seriously, violet is *perfect*.

    I have the Bvlgari coffret…it is absolutely gorgeous! The bottles look so pretty in their box that I replace them reverently after each use. 🙂

    K, glad to hear it is a real box…couldn't tell from the picture and was afraid it might be a sort of flimsy paper carton or something that you'd just discard after opening.
