<\/p>\nWhen it comes to Christmas presents, designer perfumes are one of the top gifts on everyone\u2019s list this year, with searches for them skyrocketing as we head into December.<\/p>\n
However, luxury fragrances often come with luxury price tags, and some of our favourite scents can end up setting us back more than \u00a3100, making them a pretty big splurge, particularly when you\u2019re on a budget.<\/p>\n

One Avon fragrance has been garnering quite a bit of attention on social media lately, with shoppers raving about how expensive the Little Black Dress Lace Eau de Parfum,<\/b> \u00a312 here<\/u><\/b>,<\/b> smells and how long it lasts. <\/p>\n
