Gifts Under 50, 100 and 150 €: Ideas with the Wow Factor
The best present is rarely the most expensive one, but the one that makes someone ask: “How did you know?” For that very moment, we have combed our shelves in Bregenz for gifts under 50, 100 and 150 €, from a glass Christmas pickle to a fragrance calendar with seven memories. And because some people deserve something for ever, there is a chapter on solid gold at the end. Every idea can be ordered online and was in stock at the time of writing.
- Under 50 €: the Christmas pickle in a jar by Inge Glas, a car fragrance by Naumov, the Perfume Merch Cap or a scented hand cream by Maison Margiela.
- Under 100 €: the Secrid Cardprotector+ for MagSafe, a Replica fragrance in 30 ml or a Discovery Set by Escentric Molecules.
- Under 150 €: the seven-piece Replica Gift Set 2026 or a Message in the Bulb light with a message of its own.
- For solid gold moments: fine jewellery by Leaf in 14 and 18 carat, from 140 €.
Which gifts under 50 € don’t feel like an afterthought?
The ones with a story. A small gift feels big when it tells a tale, does something special or gets used every day. These five tick at least one of those boxes.
Christmas pickle “Pickled Gherkins in a Jar” by Inge Glas
Whoever spots the pickle on the Christmas tree first gets an extra present, or so the custom goes. This one comes in proper style in a preserving jar, so it is already wrapped. Mouth-blown, silvered inside and hand-painted at the manufactory in Neustadt bei Coburg. Why the pickle hangs on the tree in the first place, and how much of the legend is true, you can read in The Christmas pickle: the true story. The catch: it is still a tree ornament, not a main present.
Arabian Nights, car and room fragrance by Naumov
Cinnamon, cardamom and saffron, over vanilla, amber, sandalwood and oud. A scent that turns your car into a little lounge in December. Naumov fragrances are among our best-selling small gifts online. Available in 60 and 250 ml. The catch: the scent is deliberately bold and oriental, so it is not one for lovers of entirely neutral air.
Torino21 Deodorant Spray by Xerjoff
The bestseller Torino21 as a deodorant: mint, lemon, basil and thyme, as fresh as a morning on the tennis court. A luxury upgrade for an everyday product nobody else thinks to give. According to Xerjoff, the packaging is made from recycled and recyclable materials. The catch: a deodorant is not a perfume, so it does not last as long.
Replica Lazy Sunday Morning hand cream by Maison Margiela
The scent of freshly laundered sheets as a hand cream with hyaluronic acid, shea butter and almond oil. According to the brand, it absorbs without leaving a greasy film and fits into any coat pocket. If you love the scent, you will also find it as an Eau de Toilette further down.
Perfume Merch Cap “Sniff First”
Our very own cap, embroidered in Vienna, 100 % cotton, one size. For everyone who sniffs a wrist first and says hello afterwards. It comes in several colours and slogans, for example Oud Vibes Only or Perfume Lover. The catch: sponge clean only, no washing machine.
What can you give for under 100 €?
This is where things get more personal. In this price range, you get either a well-thought-out everyday piece or an introduction to the world of niche fragrances.
Secrid Premium Cardprotector+ Fluted for MagSafe
Attaches magnetically to compatible iPhones from the iPhone 12 onwards (excluding the iPhone 16e), and a lever slides the cards out in a neat staggered row. Room for four embossed or six smooth cards, metal cards included. For Android, you will need a suitable MagSafe case. We tell the story of the brand in The ultimate card holder from Secrid.
Replica By the Fireplace by Maison Margiela, 30 ml
Pink pepper, clove, roasted chestnut, guaiac wood and vanilla: a crackling fire you can spray on, ideal for the festive season. The 30 ml size is spot on for anyone who wants to get to know a fragrance first. If rum and tobacco are more your thing, reach for Replica Jazz Club.
Molecule Discovery Set by Escentric Molecules, 5 × 8.5 ml
All five Molecule fragrances in mini bottles. Each one puts a single aroma chemical centre stage, Molecule 01, for instance, the famous Iso E Super. A gift that will still be debated over dessert. The catch: some people can barely smell individual molecules on their own skin, and that is part of the concept.
LED light bulb by Message in the Bulb
Handmade statement bulbs from Paris with lettering inside the glass, dimmable, for any lamp with an E27 fitting. The bulb on its own comes in under 100 €; together with the Madison base, you land just under 150 € (see below).
Which gifts under 150 € feel truly special?
In this bracket, a gift can be a little experience: a set to explore, a full-size bottle or a light object that glows all winter long.
Replica Gift Set Edition 2026 by Maison Margiela
Seven pieces, seven days: Jazz Club in 30 ml, By the Fireplace, Never-ending Summer and Chasing Sunsets in 7 ml, Lazy Sunday Morning in 10 ml, plus hand cream and shower gel at 50 ml each. A way to work through the best-loved Replica memories, from a jazz bar in Brooklyn to a Sunday morning in Florence. Our favourite for anyone whose signature scent you don’t know.
Replica Lazy Sunday Morning by Maison Margiela, 100 ml
Aldehydes, pear and lily of the valley, a heart of iris and rose, over white musk. It smells of fresh bed linen and warm skin: a fragrance that bothers no one and still gets noticed. The catch: as an Eau de Toilette it is on the quiet side, ideal for the office and everyday wear.
Madison base with bulb by Message in the Bulb
The aluminium base with fabric cable and dimmer switch rotates through 350 degrees. Add a bulb such as French Riviera and it becomes a light object with a message for a bedside table or sideboard. The bulb is not included with the base, so please order both.
What about solid gold jewellery? A Little More Special
Sometimes a gift is meant to last, not just for Christmas but for decades. Solid gold does not rust and keeps its shine, and small pieces in 14 or 18 carat are more affordable than many people think. What the carat number actually means, we explain in Yellow, white or rose gold: what is in 18 carat?.
Gentle Clover lucky bracelet by Leaf, 14 carat white gold
A clover leaf of around one centimetre in 585 gold on an adjustable cord. It sits on the wrist so lightly you barely feel it and goes with whatever is already worn there. Thanks to the adjustable cord, there is no size to guess.
Mini Clover stud earrings by Leaf, 14 carat yellow gold
Clover leaves of about four millimetres, subtle enough for every day, delivered in Leaf jewellery packaging. A gift that never comes off again.
Twist ring by Leaf, 18 carat yellow gold
A delicate twisted ring in 750 gold, with gift box and certificate. Beautiful on its own or stacked. With rings, a little trick helps: how to find out the size discreetly, you can read in How to find out a ring size in secret.
We show even more ideas in fair gold in Noën jewellery for Christmas, and you will find the full range in our Leaf jewellery collection.
Prices according to the 4D Outfitters online shop, as of 21 October 2026. The prices shown are updated automatically from our shop. Availability may change, and some pieces are only available in small quantities.
Little gift curiosities
So you have a story to tell while the wrapping comes off
- A German custom hardly any Germans know
In the USA, the Christmas pickle is known as the German Christmas Pickle, yet hardly anyone in Germany has heard of it. The whole story is in our pickle article.
- Memories with a place and a year
Every Replica fragrance names a place and a time on its label, such as Florence 2003 for Lazy Sunday Morning or Brooklyn 2013 for Jazz Club.
- A fragrance that smells of almost nothing
Molecule 01 consists of a single aroma chemical, Iso E Super. Some people can barely smell it; others are showered with compliments.
- 585 and 750
14 carat means 585 parts gold per 1,000; 18 carat means 750 parts. The number is stamped into the piece of jewellery.
