Next’s Armani Beauty Luxury Fragrance Edit includes a full-size bottle of the new Power of You Eau de Parfum alongside four deluxe samples
Beauty enthusiasts hoping to revitalise their fragrance collection for summer might want to check out the new luxury perfume set at Next. The limited-edition Armani Beauty Luxury Fragrance Edit combines five premium scents from some of the most prestigious names in the industry, including Armani, Yves Saint Laurent, Prada, Lancôme and Mugler.
Priced at £65 but worth £106, the star attraction is undoubtedly the full-size 30ml bottle of Armani’s newly-launched Power of You Eau de Parfum, which alone carries a value of £62. This means customers are effectively paying only £3 more for four additional deluxe fragrance samples that are ideal for travel or popping in a handbag.
These collections offer shoppers the opportunity to try multiple scents without purchasing a full bottle immediately. Featuring a blend of fruity, floral and warm notes, the Next box is crafted to suit everything from light daytime fragrances to more opulent evening options, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Emporio Armani’s Power of You Eau de Parfum officially debuted in January 2026, making it especially noteworthy to see such a contemporary scent featured in this value-packed offer. Fronted by global ambassador Kendall Jenner, the fragrance combines passion fruit, bitter orange, frangipani and Madagascar vanilla for a tropical fruity-gourmand character that feels ideal for warmer days.
The fragrance has already garnered rave reviews from perfume enthusiasts, with one customer remarking: “This is such a beautiful, complex fragrance with a stunning projection and longevity, you could smell all the beautiful fruits in this one. It reminds me of a tropical drink that transports me to a beach vacation mindset. I love this one.”

Another added: “I bought it a month ago and it’s gorgeous. Just what I need for spring and summer. The perfume is long lasting and I have many compliments when I wear it.
“If you love smelling like a fruity tropical breeze blowing through a cookie bakery, this is the exact scent for you,” said a third. “It is feminine, soft yet mildly bold. I love it. Perfect for spring and summer.”
Not everyone was entirely won over, though. One reviewer acknowledged the fragrance was ‘really sweet and soft’ and ‘not my type at all’, while still commending how long the scent lingered.
A fifth commented: “First the bottle is gorgeous and the weight screams luxury. The atomizer is perfect and the spray is the perfect amount. The scent definitely opens with juicy passion fruit and dries down to a sexy and seductive and sweet vanilla. Lasts for a long time. Complex but not overpowering. Perfect summer scent.”
Luxury beauty collections have surged in popularity as consumers seek opportunities to sample premium products without committing to full-priced bottles. At ASOS, the ASOS Summer Scenting Beauty Box is available for £28 and features five miniature fragrances. Customers can discover scents including Kayali’s Sweet Peach and Le Monde Gourmand Peche Delicieuse, Floral Street Wonderland Peony, Shay and Blue Black Tulip and Laboratory Perfumes Amber.
Over at Selfridges, The Fragrance Edit: Volume 1, valued at £192, is on offer for £55. It includes six fragrances ranging from 5ml to 10ml, featuring niche labels such as Ex Nihilo and Escentric Molecules.
Returning to Next, the full-sized Armani perfume is accompanied by deluxe miniatures of Yves Saint Laurent’s Black Opium Glitter Eau de Parfum for an evening-ready feel. Meanwhile, Mugler Alien Pulp Eau de Parfum Fruitée offers a vibrant and fun take on the original beloved fragrance.
Prada Infusion d’Iris Eau de Parfum delivers a cleaner, more powdery profile, while Lancôme Idôle L’Eau de Toilette brings fresh and floral notes. Consequently, there’s genuinely something to suit everyone within this gift collection. The set contains 56ml of fragrance in total, with the Armani bottle accounting for nearly half, effectively bringing the cost down to approximately £33.
