Stop buying full-size perfumes blind: Use this Sephora hack to save big instead
It’s the most wonderful time of the year: The Sephora Holiday Savings event is here!
Everything at Sephora is on sale through Nov. 9, and as of today, everyone with a Beauty Insider account can save up to 20% off with the code ALLONSALE (Rouge members save 20%, VIB save 15% and Beauty Insiders save 10%).
The sale comes perfectly timed as holiday shopping begins to ramp up, and I want to let you in on a secret that’s been one of my favorite ways to shop the Sephora sale in the past, whether you’re shopping for someone else or yourself.
Every holiday season, Sephora offers curated perfume samplers with 1 oz. samples of up to 20 different fragrances included. The sampler also comes with a scent certificate that allows you to redeem one full-size fragrance from the bunch.
The full-size fragrances range in price, but with many of them over $100, you’re stacking savings: if the sampler is already cheaper than the full-size to begin with, you’re getting that full-size for even less with the Holiday Savings stacked on top.
This sampler includes the following 20 fragrances. We’ve linked them all below along with how much it would cost to buy the redemption size on its own.

Unlike the Sephora Favorites variety, this set focuses specifically on floral and vanilla scents.
Here’s what you’ll get in it:
