Updated: · Disclosure: oin is our own product.

For a crush who loves perfume, the safest Christmas gifts are samples, a scent you know they already wear, or skincare, plus a small custom pixel game from oin (oingift.com) if you already know each other well.

14 Christmas gift ideas for your crush who loves perfume

  1. A game that stars them Our product

    oin turns a shared story into a small 2D pixel game with your crush as the main character, generated from an authorized photo, so it suits a crush you already know well and who is happy to share a photo. Two letters from you open and close it, a 5-question quiz about the things you have in common rewards flowers for correct answers, and the final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan; New York and Tokyo are coming soon. It plays in a browser, is usually emailed within an hour and costs $29.90. See how it works →

  2. A fragrance sample set

    Ten small vials so they can discover a new favourite. Around $25-60.

  3. A niche fragrance

    Only if you know their taste: Le Labo, Byredo or Maison Margiela Replica. Around $100-250.

    A simple routine from Kiehl’s or Aesop. Around $35-100.

    J’adore or Miss Dior, if you know they already wear it. Around $80-160.

  6. A Chanel perfume

    Chance or Coco Mademoiselle, again only if you know it. Around $90-160.

    Codenames: Duet or Patchwork. Around $15-35.

    A small bunch with a short note. Around $15-40.

    A small case for their fragrance on the go. Around $20-60.

  14. A handwritten note

    Describe the first scent you remember of them. Costs nothing.

How to buy fragrance without guessing

Check what they wear now and what is running low. Avoid an entirely new scent unless you include a gift receipt, and use a sample set if you want to give something different.

Order dates

Fragrances and skincare should be ordered in early December so they can be exchanged. A custom oin game and digital vouchers can be sorted out much later.

What should I get my crush who loves perfume for Christmas?

A sample set or a scent you know they wear, with a gift receipt. If you are already close, add a custom pixel game that stars them.

What is a unique Christmas gift for my crush that is not just another object?

A perfume-blending workshop for two, or a small pixel game built around your shared jokes, if they are comfortable providing a photo.

Can I send my crush a gift online at the last minute?

Yes. Digital vouchers arrive instantly. An oin game is generated automatically after payment and is usually emailed within an hour.

What is oingift.com and is it a good gift for my crush?

oingift.com is the website for oin, a personalised 2D pixel game starring the recipient, built from an authorized photo. It includes two letters and a 5-question quiz and plays in a browser, so it suits a crush you already know well.
