If you’re buying for that someone ‘who has everything’ this Christmas, turn to one of these eclectic spots in London to find the perfect gift. From luxury artisanal goods to quirky specialist stores, we’ve got your Christmas shopping covered…
Penhaligon’s
Surprise your loved one with a heavenly fragrance this Christmas from none other than Penhaligon’s. A heritage brand with a rich and fascinating history, the luxury perfume house – which holds two Royal Warrants – has been producing its signature scents since the late 1860s when the illustrious founder William Henry Penhaligon became perfumer to Queen Victoria. Though you’ll find an array of Penhaligon’s stores dotted around London, we think that the prepossessing Burlington Arcade branch is most definitely worth a visit at Christmas. Too many scents to choose from? The store also offers a unique and bespoke service tailored to finding the perfect fragrance for you. 16-17 Burlington Arcade, Mayfair, W1J 0PL, penhaligons.com
TIP: Book at stay at the decadent St James’s hotel, DUKES London, located just around the corner from Burlington Arcade – an ideal spot to rest up after a day of festive shopping around the upscale district’s multitude of authentic stores. What’s more, the prestigious hotel – which also holds a Royal Warrant – provides Penhaligon’s bathroom amenities in all its guest rooms.

Fortnum & Mason
A luxury store which needs no introduction, Fortnum & Mason has been providing unique and luxury gifts to the capital since 1707. Specialising in the art of artisanal goods, from biscuits to champagne and Fortnum’s signature brews (famously created for King Edward VII in 1902), it’s easy to lose yourself for hours in the world-renowned Piccadilly store. Spoil a loved one with an indulgent Christmas hamper, pick up a delicious pack of Fortnum’s biscuits – we recommend the delicious Toffolossus – then treat yourself to a spot of traditional afternoon tea in the Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon. 181 Piccadilly, W1A 1ER, fortnumandmason.com
