Two more Estee Lauder solid perfume compacts, these done just for Harrods. At left, Harrods 175 Anniversary Edition: "The collectable design is shaped like our Knightsbridge store, with the numbers at the front nodding to our 175th-anniversary commemorations. What’s more, it opens to reveal the beauty brand’s Beautiful fragrance, where fresh florals and zesty citrus meet warm woods for a bright scent", £350. At right, the annual Harrods Bear for 2024, "A gift from Estée Lauder and Harrods to you, the Harrods Bear solid perfume compact is part of the beauty brand’s festive range. The design is collectable in more ways than one, as it also celebrates 175 years of our store’s history. Featuring the Beautiful fragrance inside – where fresh florals and zesty citrus meet warm woods – it promises to be an accessory you’ll cherish for years to come", £310.
