Wilkinsons do sell fragrances now, they might be cheaper there. Always ebay/ amazon. Try looking for a voucher in a magazine or online. Moneysavingexpert forums are a good place to ask for advice on such things.
I think you should get her something else tbh. For a perfume that's a tad "cheap" isn't it? Unless it's a pretty small bottle

loads of places do reasonable priced perfumes!!!! but BNM has great value and bodycare. you can get sarah Jessica parker 'lovely' or Kylie Minogue 'darling' for well in budget. hope this helps!
Buy 10 from poundland

If I was you mate, I'd go on eBay and buy a decant of a niche fragrance. Basically there are designer and niche perfumes. Designer are things like Paco Rabanne, Armani, Thierry Mugler and so on, basically everything you find in Boots/Perfume Shop and every perfume you've ever heard of, will probably be a designer one.

Niche are perfumes made by actual perfume houses that specialise only in fragrances (some do scented candles, soap etc) and are usually much, much better quality. So I'd go on eBay and get a decant of a niche perfume. You won't get loads for £10 but it'll be far better than anything you can buy for a tenner from a shop.

I wouldn't get perfume to be honest. Its not going to be that nice if its under £10 and it won't last long on the skin either.
There are loads of nice gifts you can get someone for £10!
What about a hat and scarf or gloves, pyjamas if you know their size, a dressing gown, slippers, manicure/nail polish set, smelly stuff (bath bombs, body lotions, shower gels, gift sets..), makeup sets, a CD by a group she likes, wine and chocolates...

There are tons of things!
Hope you get something.

Don't, £10 perfumes are crap

Hollister body sprays are £12, last for quite a while and smell pretty good, so that might be an idea? All the girls that I know seem to love them, as do I :smile:

Just do what everyone else does and get a hand cream.

If you can't be bothered, go to Boots and ask for "any hand cream for £10". If you can be bothered (or want to impress) there is one in Molton Brown for £10 exactly.

The body shop do quite nice perfumes fairly cheap. I have the white musk one from there, I don't remember exactly how much it cost...between £10-£15.
