Happy holidays! It is time to get full on cookies, and merry on mulled wine. Santa is coming and the goose is getting fat!
The holidays are a fun and exciting time, but they can also be stressful if we are not prepared. Ever drawn a complete blank when you need to find an amazing gift for someone on your list?
Well, worry no more. We are here to help you prepare, avoid a few awkward situations and make gift giving easy, all while wowing your friends, family and colleagues.
From that wonderful yoga instructor who managed to get you through hot yoga alive, to the friend who bought you a gift when you turn up empty handed (oops!), Oojra is going to solve all your holiday gift giving problems (well 25 of them anyway!) right here, right now.
Here are 25 gift giving scenarios Oojra can solve:
1. For Important Company Clients / Executives – For Christmas ‘Thank You for Your Business’ gifts, Oojra products are the perfect way to show appreciation to your corporate clients and executives. They are incredibly high quality, desirable by all and are extremely usable. The packaging also makes them easy to give as they are, or perhaps in a simple gift bag, or adorned with a stylish bow.
For clients and executives who all have different tastes and lifestyles, this gift is perfect for both men and women of all ages. It is useful, beautiful and something a little bit different than a branded pen or diary. Wouldn’t you want your clients thinking of your business when they catch a waft of delicious fragrance at home or in the office? What a wonderful association to your business.
2. The Office Secret Santa – Secret Santa is notoriously tricky to navigate. You may know a bit about your colleagues, but knowing their tastes for gifts is a completely different matter. Not to mention finding a gift that they can all appreciate. We all have a Secret Santa horror story where somebody was either upset or offended by a Secret Santa gift they received or there was no way they could use it (like that time the diabetic assistant got chocolates or the recovering alcoholic got wine – Whoops!!).
Oojra reed diffusers ensure that you avoid being the ill-fated gift giver because they make a delicious and delectable Secret Santa gift for anyone. They are gender neutral, highly usable (opposed to pointless dust-collectors), last much longer than a box of chocolates or a bottle of wine, and recipients are highly unlikely to be allergic to it (it’s paraben and phthalate free). And it comes at a great price point because although you love Betty from sales, you don’t really want to be blowing your entire budget on her Christmas gift.
3. As Holiday Party Hostess Gifts – When you’re going over to your friends, Aunties or next door neighbours for some mulled wine and turkey cranberry finger sandwiches, it is, of course, nice to take a gift. It is a nice gesture to thank the hostess for their hospitality. The problem is a bottle of wine or some holiday chocolates is a bit impersonal and my goodness, most of us could turn into Santa with the amount of food and drink we already receive over Christmas, right? So why not delight your hostess with a lovely Oojra reed diffuser that they can enjoy and use straight away and calorie free during the season of excess. This will definitely stand out from the crowd of wine bottles everyone else brings.
4. The Encouraging Yoga Instructor/Gym Instructor 
– If you have a spin class wizard that’s helped your thighs go from chunky to hunky, or a yoga instructor who has helped you unwind and go from angry frog to downward dog, give them the gift of travel inspired scent for Christmas as a thank you. They will love the thought and may even use the product in their studio. The White Tea and Ginger is an energizing scent for their practice space!
5. The Patient Music Teacher – If you’ve had someone patiently help you learn to play the piano, the guitar, the harp, even an Alphorn, Christmas is a great time to thank them for their guidance. It won’t be too much so they feel embarrassed, just a thoughtful, wonderful gift to say thanks for guiding my creativity this year. The French Provence Lavender scent might be a nice relaxing option for them to enjoy after a day of challenging beginners.
6. The Traveller – If you know someone who loves to travel, you know they have been to so many places and seen so many exciting things. They will also have a love of trying new and unusual things, especially travel inspired. Oojra is the perfect gift for this type of person. This is a unique travel product for them to enjoy, and they will really love the story behind the each scent.
7. Ho Ho Holy Crap I Didn’t Get You A Gift – During the holidays, there is always that scenario where you meet with a family member or friend and they have bought you a gift. But you hadn’t anticipated it and say various ‘oops’ type words in your head as you smile and receive it, knowing you haven’t gotten them something back.
If this is you, then awkwardly grin no more, because Oojra provides the perfect gift to have on standby for these very situations. No generic chocolates or bottles of wine for your surprise recipient, oh no, they will be none the wiser as you happily present them with a stunning, well-presented gift that floods their home with glorious, high-quality scent. Your gift might even be better than the one they gave you in the first place!
8. Minimal Minnie – 
Minimalists take care and time selecting what goes in their space. Oojra is the perfect gift for a minimalist because it looks attractive, is useful, and doesn’t last forever. The recipient gets four+ months of alluring, deeply pleasing scent and then the gift has served its purpose, no obligation to hang on to it for years on end. Enjoy the experience and recycle the rest! They will be grateful it is not another trinket that they will have to take to the donation drop off in a few months.
9. The Bachelor Dude You know – Everybody knows a bachelor who could use a touch of class in their home. This is the dude whose house always smells like ‘single’ (usually the result of a sweaty gym bag or trash that needs to be taken out). The dude with a space designed for beer and bro’s, and possibly farm animals at times. This dude could really use a helpful gift these holidays. Sure you could get him some beer or aftershave, to go with all the rest, but how about giving him the gift of a lovely smelling home? His future dates will thank you and he might not be single much longer.
10. Friend Of A Friend Of A Friend Of A Dog Of A Man Of A Whale…. – This might be an Auntie you see once a year, a friend of a friend you see on the Christmas parties circuit annually, a cousin you speak to online but only general chit chat. For these people, alcohol isn’t a good idea in case they don’t drink, and food isn’t great in case they have allergies, or just because it is so generic. Oojra makes sense because it is high quality, practical and you can get it at a great price point, especially if you take advantage of our bundles.
11. For The Home Decor Queen – We all know someone who preens and fluffs their home consistently to keep it looking absolutely gorgeous. The sofa is always fluffed up, the decor is always on trend, the cats are always clean and somehow match this season’s hues. A person who really appreciates beautiful home decor will love a holiday gift that goes with most interior design styles, that also fills the space with an elegant and exquisite fragrance. A quality home fragrance is the final, but often forgotten layer of design.
12. The New Home Owner – Whether they have it all in hand, 
or they are still making a space their own, a friend who has recently invested in new digs will love holiday gifts to help make their new space personal and intimate. It is too risky to buy a gift to fit in with their decor, so why not buy an attractive Oojra reed diffuser that brings something to the space on a level other than the visual.
Most new homeowners invest in air fresheners, plug-ins and candles to get rid of the smells left behind from previous owners. Oojra offers a better solution in the way of an attractive ornament that fills the space with scent for at least four months.
13. For A Dinner Party Host(ess) – A person who loves throwing dinner parties is a person who is extra busy at Christmas throwing feasts for friends and families. That is a lot of candles and air freshener to get through. Oojra is the perfect gift for your favourite dinner party thrower because that welcoming, delicious fresh home scent can be created with just one product, minimal effort, so your friend can focus on cooking up a storm.
14. The Perfect Gift For An Anxious Friend Who Needs Help Winding Down – If you have a friend who suffers from anxiety, is very stressed and uptight, a reed diffuser is a wonderful holiday gift to give when stress levels are particularly high. Scents like the French Provence Lavender will help your anxious friend relax at home, and rejuvenate ready for everything this season has to bring.

. That Person You Have Special Travel Memories With – Christmas is a lovely time to reminisce over wonderful past memories. The music, the lights and the general vibe are romantic and warm, so it makes sense that you would give gifts that bring back special memories. Perhaps you visited a spa in Asia together, and our Thai Jasmine Bamboo diffuser will evoke the memories of that special time? Oojra could help you and your loved one reminisce about special travel memories this Christmas, and maybe even make some new plans for adventure in the new year.
16. For Your Sick Friend – If you have a friend who is stuck at home these holidays because they are sick, and they have to spend a lot of time in the same space, our reed diffusers are the perfect gift. Scent has a therapeutic effect on the mind, and although they might feel awful, Oojra can help their space be a little more welcoming and enjoyable to sit in day to day over the holidays.
17. For The Picky Relative You Aren’t That Close With – There’s always one! Auntie Mabel who looks disgusted at your gift even when you specifically asked her what to get. Uncle Brian who never thinks you have spent enough. Cousin Lauren and her immediate need to chuck your gift to the side when it is half opened. The list goes on!
For those relatives who are particularly picky, Oojra is the perfect gift. It is reasonable in price (but appears so much more expensive), practical, usable and attractive. Unless a person is offended by nice scent, they simply cannot complain about this gift!
18. Super Shop Assistant – There’s probably a shop assistant in a store you frequent, who has been bending over backwards, sideways and in a knot to help you time and time again this year with continual customer service. As they work hard these holidays giving wonderful customer service, make their day with a lovely present to say thanks for making your life that bit easier time and time again. You’ll feel great giving them a wonderful gift for going the extra mile. And believe me they will be sure to go the extra extra mile for many years to come!
19. For The Nose Blind Animal Lover – If you know someo
ne who is admittedly nose blind to the many furry, feathered or scaly friends in their life, then a reed diffuser is a great present this Christmas. Why can’t they all have a wonderful smelling home? Animal lovers will know it isn’t that easy to put a cap on the smell of a stinky dog, or an elderly moth-eaten cat. But it can be done, and a high quality, beautiful gift like Oojra is a safe alternative to candles that can neutralise those puppy pongs without overpowering the space.
20. Therapist Thanks – Perhaps you have a therapist who’s been hearing your monthly woes, or a masseuse who works out your knots and gets you back to sanity every few weeks. Maybe your manicurist has never given you a bad set of gels yet, or your acupuncturist has managed to poke out all the stress from your temples time and time again. Say thanks to your personal therapist these holidays with a gift that gives back the gift of personal care and relaxation.
21. New Parents Who Need Some Peace – A new baby is a special gift, especially during the holidays. But they’ve already got a baby, so instead, gift them with a delightful, safe reed diffuser to fill their home with some much needed scent and relaxation during these tricky times.
22. For The Fresher Struggling To Settle In – If you know someone who has started education in a new place recently and they are struggling to settle into their new home, help them out with some scent as a gift these holidays. Sometimes, it can be tricky to make a place home, even with all the latest gadgets and decor. A travel inspired fragrance could hold the key to giving their new place a home away from home feel.
23. For The Newly Single Friend Making New Beginnings – You might have a friend who has found him or herself making new beginnings this Christmas, becoming single for the first time. This can be really tricky for them, and emotional. Sure you’ll be there handing them a glass of mulled wine and a spoon for the tub of ice cream you’re both about to tuck into, but why not give them the gift of new beginnings with Oojra. Maybe they are making home in a new place as a newly single person, or they are settling into a home once shared, now alone. Scent is a great way to make a space feel wonderful, even if the emotions within it are tricky.
24. When You Are A Plus One – 
As a plus one at any party you are unlikely to know the host, they are a complete stranger to you. You, of course, shouldn’t turn up empty handed, but it is hard to know what to take that balances out ‘thank you for inviting me’ with no clue about the person, their tastes and not wanting to break the bank getting them a gift. With a reed diffuser from Oojra you can provide a classy, elegant gift that your host can use, all at a great price. Now, onto the gingerbread men!
25. When You Need To Treat Yourself – As many hints as we drop, Christmas doesn’t necessarily bring us what we want, and if we want a gorgeous gift for the home, this one will keep the house smelling delicious as all the guests come and go. Is it indulgent, yes. Is it necessary? Definitely.
Happy Holidays, Love From Oojra X
