It wasn’t that long ago that bath and body gift sets had a bad reputation for being somewhat, well, let’s just say cheesy. And listen, we can understand why. The idea does sometimes conjure up visions of weird, off-brand drugstore products wrapped in crinkly cellophane. But forget everything you thought you knew about bath and body gift sets because they’re back and better than ever. The latest versions feature a range of different offerings with all kinds of bath and body (and sometimes even haircare and skincare) essentials, and brands—at all price points—are doing them. They’re an awesome gift to give because they’re a nice way for your giftee to experience a bunch of different products from a brand, not to mention that you get more bang for your buck. Sold yet? You should be.
Necessaire The Body Ritual Set

Sephora
We can’t get enough of the way this brand does elevated, clean, sophisticated shower staples. This four-piece kit is proof positive, complete with the body wash—which, FYI, we couldn't find one qualm with when we tested it—exfoliator, body serum, and lotion. Also nice: The body wash and scrub come in the eucalyptus scent, the serum and lotion and fragrance-free.

Sol de Janeiro
A luxe body cream and perfume mist makeup this set, both touting one of the brand’s newest fragrances. Inspired by a day at the beach, it’s a bright floral with warmer notes of vanilla and a woodsy amber dry-down. When we tested the perfume mist, we found that it did in fact transport us to a Brazilian beach—at least, mentally, anyway.

This set is the perfect way to step-up anyone’s bathing game. It comes with the brand’s sugar-based coco rose body scrub (which we found left our skin both super soft and very moisturized, thanks to the coconut oil in the formula), alongside a coconut oil-infused bath soak and calming bath salts. Yes, yes, and yes.
