Best Gifts For Women in Their 40s

Smart fragrance Pura 4 ($50)

I love luxury candles as much as the next person, but they don't hold the flame as well as the smart Pura 4 scenter. It can be programmed via the app to release scent at scheduled times or evenly throughout the day. It's also easy to control the intensity level, so you don't have to worry about the scent being too strong. After trying it out in my home, it is now my go-to gift for candle lovers. Pura also offers Clean Mini ($35), a smaller version for smaller spaces like the bedroom. Read more in my Review of smart fragrance Pura 4.

Editor's quote: “Since our device is in our living room, where my family spends most of their time together, I programmed it to emit a brighter, fresher scent in the mornings and a warm, soothing scent in the evenings, and then it turns off during the day when we're all at work and school. If I'm expecting company, I'll schedule the diffuser to turn on just before they arrive so our house smells amazing without me having to run around lighting candles. worrying about fire hazards when my 3 year old and 6 year old are running around is something I still worry about with candles.

The best part is that I can still smell the scent of some of my favorite candles thanks to Pura's impressive selection. They carry scents from brands such as Studio McGee, Nest New York, Lafco, Brooklyn Candle Studio and more. They even sell popular seasonal scents, like Thymes' best-selling Frasier Fir, which smells like a freshly cut Christmas tree.” – Angela Elias, Contributing Shopping Editor.
