The holiday season is upon us and it’s time to start gift shopping for your loved ones. The best gifts are both thoughtful and practical – they aren’t something that will sit forgotten and unused for years to come. Fragranced candles, reed diffusers, and body care products are the kind of things many people don’t spend money on for themselves but absolutely love to receive as gifts.
This year, give friends and loved ones the gift of luxurious fragrance with LAFCO. Whether you’re shopping for hostess gifts, Christmas or Hanukkah gifts, or simply something to show the people you love how much you care, you can’t go wrong with a gift from LAFCO.
We’ve curated a collection of holiday gift ideas in different categories to help you check everyone off your shopping list with ease.
Founder Picks
When LAFCO founder Jon Bresler first set out on his fragrance journey he was originally drawn to fresh and floral fragrances. As his experience grew, so did his sense for pure fragrance. If you want to give a gift that’s truly unique and luxurious, try one of LAFCO’s Founder Picks below.

Perfectly paired in this holiday gift set, this candle and reed diffuser duo harness the wintery scent of Woodland Spruce.

These fragrances eventually give way to an undertone of palo santo and cypress.
