Gift Focus - Jul/Aug 2019 (Issue 114)

89 HOME & GIFT XYSTOS Stand: Q-C17 W: xystostrade.co.uk Flame and fragrance specialist Xystos is taking the scents of summer and faraway places to Home & Gift. Its own-brand Cello reed diffusers blend seamlessly into any home, creating ambience with a range of vibrant fragrances. Each fragrance has top, middle and bottom notes that combine to produce a harmony of scent. On the stand this year are five more light-up Fairy Houses (RRP £9.99) from innovative Australian supplier Splosh. These are themed after dinosaurs, pirates, elephants, teddy bears and space. Splosh’s diverse full range will feature on the Xystos stand and includes Travel Maps (RRP £29.99-£59.99) that allow customers to pin where they’ve been and where they want to go and Mushroom Ornaments with sentimental messages (£4.99). The Naked Bee has a raft of new bath and body products available through Xystos this year, including an everyday facial cleansing gel and a moisturiser with vitamin C. Foaming hand soaps, including one with coconut and honey, will be on show alongside hand sanitiser, hand repair cream, foot balm and a lip balm trio with orange blossom and honey, coconut and honey and citron and honey scents. RRPs in this collection range from £2.99 to £24.99. Cello’s reed diffusers are expected to lead the charge at the show. The core 120ml range, which has a use time of around 90 days, includes a set of dark and light reeds customers can choose from to suit their décor. An added bonus is that the reeds are thicker than average, ensuring that when turned regularly, fragrances are better retained and the reeds do not droop over time. Each of the hand-decorated glass vessels is embellished with the fragrance-contrasting logo and crowned with the Cello Charm to ensure authenticity. With an RRP of £17.99, each piece is packaged in a bespoke box ideal for gifting. Cello’s newest fragrances – Cucumber Spritz, Ginger Fizz and Poppy Blush – will feature in the 180ml Fragrance Burst reed diffuser collection. With a use time of 120 days, the diffusers are elegantly gift-boxed and bursting with fragrance. RRP £24.99. Cello’s Hourglass reed diffusers (RRP £34.99) are designed for scenting smaller spaces or giving a subtle fragrance to larger rooms. Once turned over, they begin to work, with each cycle taking between two-and-a-half and three hours. For optimal fragrance diffusion, these 120ml diffusers are best placed near an open area that provides air circulation and will scent the home for up to two months. The Ultrasonic Decanter Glass diffuser (RRP £44.99) from Cello is available in six on-trend designs, capturing the essence of artisanal glass and creating excellent fragrance when used in conjunction with the Ultrasonic essential oils. The products offer the choice between a continuous stream of cool-scented mist or an intermittent burst, as well as a colour-changing light mode. These are also features of the Signature Ultrasonic diffuser range, with three Fragrance Burst designs, and the Dreamcatcher Ultrasonic diffuser, designed to ward off unpleasant scents and enrich the air with bursts of fragrance. Both have RRPs of £39.99. 
