Countdown to Christmas: Gifts to Warm the Heart

It’s December. Mariah Carey has been fully defrosted. The season of gifting (and eating) is upon us. For some, getting gifts for friends and loved ones is a treasured adventure. For others, it might devolve into a last-minute Amazing Race dash to the stores to grab the first thing we see and pretend it was planned all along.

 Last minute or otherwise, it’s the thought that counts right? With that, here are some fun and thoughtful picks to round out 2025 that are easily added to cart from home and snagged with nifty deals during Lazada’s 12.12 All Out Sale.

1. HOOGA Black Series Gift Set

 A great scent has a way of turning a house into a home and telling a story without saying a word. The HOOGA Black Series Gift Set is a beautifully curated set that includes a 100ml spray, a 70g scented candle, and a 50ml reed diffuser with elegant 20cm sticks. Designed to deliver a long-lasting, clean, and revitalising scent, it is perfect for turning any room into a serene retreat. Choose from three calming aromas: the earthy warmth of White Tea & Ginger, the bright citrus zest of Kenya Yuzu, or the cool, clean notes of Green Tea & Cucumber.

2. Christmas 2025 MUJI Interior Fragrance Oil

 If you’re longing for “cabin in Hokkaido” but your reality is “condo facing the LRT tracks”, this one’s for you. MUJI’s adorable Snowman paper fragrance vase gently releases a refreshing forest aroma (think pine trees and cold air) and adds a cute Christmas touch to your abode. Plus, it comes in a festive Christmas Gift Bag that’s ready to go. Grappling with wrapping paper is not required.
