Fragrance advent calendars are turning out to be an unexpected front-runner this year, however they don't come cheap.

Harrods's already sold-out version cost £175, meanwhile Armani Advent Calendar is £270 and Jo Malone's is a whopping £370.

If you're after an affordable option The Perfume Shop's Advent Calendar is one of the only ones under £100 and has already sold out numerous times, but luckily has just been restocked.

Filled with a variety of best-selling iconic perfumes worth £187, the calendar is a great treat to kick off the festive season - and given its popularity, we don't think it will be in stock for much longer.

Inside are 25 fragrance treats to unwrap. While it costs £79.99, its contents are worth a huge £187.

Inside are 25 bottles for men and women, from luxury brands such as Mugler, Paco Rabanne, Narciso Rodriguez, Estee Lauder, Versace, Kenzo and Marc Jacobs (with bottle sizes ranging between 4ml and 15ml).

It's the perfect opportunity to explore new fragrances before committing to a full-size bottle, or just to replenish a perfume collection.
