Fragrance: Ralph Lauren Red // Giftwrap: Sugar Paper LA

This year I wanted to give my boyfriend new cologne for Christmas, but purchasing a fragrance for someone else can be very difficult. I started my search with Ralph Lauren, because I have found Ralph Lauren Romance to be my favorite fragrance. After sampling both Ralph Lauren Polo Blue and Ralph Lauren Polo Red, I decided that Ralph Lauren Polo Red was the perfect fragrance to give him. The Polo Red fragrance is a blend of red saffron, grapefruit and deep nodes of redwood, it is the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. I just purchased a large bottle of cologne to make sure he liked the scent first, but Ralph Lauren has some great gift sets that I will be purchasing in the future. I ended up going back to purchase the Polo Blue fragrance for my brother, because I thought it suited him better than the Polo Red fragrance. The Polo Blue fragrance is a the perfect blend of bergamot and vetiver, which has a more fresh scent.

My favorite gift wrap collection the past two years has been the Sugar Paper LA collection at Target. I had a few things left over from last years collection, like the black and white ribbon, but the craft and gold foil wrapping paper was my favorite item from this years collection. The craft paper is thicker than most wrapping paper, which makes it easier to work with and will withstand sharp corners. Shop more of my favorite gift wrap and Ralph Lauren fragrances below. Merry Christmas and happy giving! xoxo
