In case you have plenty of extra cash lying about this holiday, just screaming for a purpose, here's the D-Air diffuser from Dior: "Born from a collaboration between the excellence of La Collection Privée Christian Dior's savoir-faire and the technological expertise of the French brand Compoz Paris, the D-Air fragrance diffuser is a singular object, a genuine manifesto of beauty with a pure and contrasting design. Intuitive to use, it features a simple refill system, a one-touch start, and an ajustable diffusion time. This exceptional piece works with capsules that diffuse the olfactory notes of Thé Osmanthus, Ambre Nuit, Oud Supreme, Jardin d'Orangers and Figue Méditerranée." $2900. I think it includes the 5 fragrance capsules but I'm not sure and hey, what's the difference. Refill capsules are $95 each or $475 for the set of 5.

From Atkinson's, the Rum & Chestnut Duet candle: "Rum & Chestnut Duet is a glorious concoction of ingredients designed to conjure up images of flaming rum-soaked puddings, burning log fires, and of course, the comforting aroma of roasted chestnuts. Joining the sensory party are notes of frankincense and cedarwood for a spicy, smoky, ever-so-slightly sweet, and dare we say exotic fragrance that most definitely packs a (rum) punch. Inspired by two of winter’s most suggestive aromas, Rum & Chestnut Duet is an unconventional fragrance that is earthy and smoky with just a hint of sweetness. Light this sweet but spicy Limited edition candle and banish the winter blues!" $80 for 200g at Dillards.

More toothpaste, really? From Swedish brand Selahatin, my eye is on Of Course I Still Luv You: "Capturing the inherent romantic and intimate essence of Selahatin, Of Course I Still Luv You is a tribute to hope and fidelity. Under a spell of citrusy verbena and bergamot, draped in exotic and mysterious cardamom and a holy union between woody pine and aromatic juniper, a picturesque tale of young innocent love and spring blossoms." Shouldn't your toothpaste be a tribute to hope and fidelity? €22 for 65 ml. (I think Saks had this brand at one time but I'm not sure it's distributed in the US at the moment.)

(You can also buy the crackers separately for $38 each, and if you're looking for a bigger gift, there's also a "Perfumer's Collection" with ten 10 ml fragrances in a presentation box for $355.)
