Best Mother’s Day Perfumes 2022 collage by Steven©
Mother’s Day in the USA is Sunday May 8 (but is celebrated on Sundays in March and June in other countries around the world). If it was up to us, Mother’s Day should be a global holiday. Not only do moms never get a day off, their special day is always Sunday (usually a day of play for the rest of us). Our 10 Best Mother’s Day Perfumes 20222 are dedicated to all mothers and the maternal women who shaped our lives, which might be you, your sister, your own mom… and those who live on in our memories.
Here are Steven’s and Michelyn’s suggestions for 10 Best Mother’s Day Perfumes 2022 (in no particular order here)
Indult Paris My Juju (Nathalie Feisthauer) made my Top 10 Perfumes of 2021. Which is quite special since I smell hundreds of perfumes a year. This sophisticated floral gourmand, My Ju Ju, will be mom’s new perfumed talisman. With expected notes of coffee and green cardamom, Master perfumer Nathalie Feisthauer (also my perfumer of 2021) created a multi-faceted vanilla skin scent that lingers for hours. I decanted it for my own mom who loves it; I see a full bottle in her future –Michelyn Camen, Editor-in-Chief
House of Sillage Whispers of Enchantment is a floral perfume combined with clean musk and a smooth leather accord. –Steven Gavrielatos, Video Content Editor
Strangelove lostinflowers (Christophe Laudamiel) combines the gentle purity of jasmine, champaca, gardenia enfleurage, saffron, and oud. The heat of her skin transforms the oil into a perfume that is uniquely hers. To quote our Robert Hermann (RIP) in February 2019: “Let me tell you how much I love LostInFlowers: it was the ONLY perfume I chose to take with me to the Milan Esxence perfume expo last year.” I am on my third bottle Master Perfumer Christophe Laudamiel was my Hall of Fame 2021 recipient) -Michelyn
Perfumology L’Ima (Justin Federico) Nir Guy, the owner of Perfumology desired a perfume to honor his mother Tali’s (L’Ima: means Mom in Hebrew) love for her own mother’s garden and encompasses all aspects of majestic garden with herbal, floral, citrus fruit, and greenery –Michelyn

Villa Des Parfums Etoile Celeste (Nicole Derieux and Molinard): Nicole Derieux is a woman I admire very much. She is a mom to her son Etienne, and three teenage children for whom she and her husband are foster parents. She lives in Grasse, the world’s perfume capital. In 2008 Nicole Derieux established the non-profit Parfums de Vie (Fragrance of Life) to help bring real solutions to the poverty, exclusion and literacy issues faced by many children and youth in the town of Grasse. With her husband they set out to change lives through perfume, and proceeds from every sale of Villa des Parfums fragrances goes to support the organization. Etoile Celeste, (Heavenly Star) smells like a floral garden after the rain. It is modern, with a vintage vibe. With its classic French construction centering around a dewy, sparkling jasmine supported by orange blossom, rose, violet and a base of cedarwood and musk, it is a scented prayer. At a time we need a guiding light.-Michelyn
April Aromatics Unter Den Linden (Tanja Bochnig): I grew up in Brooklyn, on a tree lined block and every spring the fragrance of linden blossoms filled the air. It was one of my first scent memories. A few years ago, I went back to the house where I was born. The neighborhood changed, but the sweetly honey floral scent of linden blossoms still wafted in the air. So poignantly beautiful, I barely could smell the exhaust fumes and the garbage at the sidewalk curbs. Tanja, (and a Mom) who is an award-winning natural perfumer composed this to evoke Berlin, transports me to my childhood and sunny days when I didn’t have a care in the world. Herkimer diamond and clear crystal infuse each bottle. I know my mom and sister would love this eau de parfum too. Because you can go home again. Tanja Bochnig was Editor Ermano Picco’s Hall of Fame winner of 2021. -Michelyn
Micallef EDENFALLS (Jean-Claude Astier and Geoffrey Nedjman) “A true love letter to nature.” EDENFALLS is an aromatic citrus, spiced with a pinch of pink pepper and coriander. A tropical waterfall in a bottle. -Michelyn Camen
Roja Parfums Elixir Pour Femme (Roja Dove) is an exquisite classic feminine floral with a beautiful rose Taif core. It is an incredibly textured, unabashedly intimate perfume that is easy to wear, and as in all of Roja Dove’s perfumes, it is complex and composed with precious ingredients. -Michelyn
Bvlgari Omnia Mary Katrantzou is a gardenia and fig leaf perfume. The organic nature of the gardenia is the focal point of this perfume, but the fig leaf note adds a tropical sensation to the perfume. The creamy aspects are addicting and inviting. The versatility of this perfume is unquestionably impressive! -Steven Gavrielatos
Parfums de Marly Oriana (Hamid Merati Kashan and Nathalie Lorson), named as one of Editor Olya Bar’s top 10 fragrances of 2021, I’d like to quote Master perfumer Nathalie Lorson’s description, “Oriana is inspired by Chantilly cream, for the first time combined with marshmallow. Its sensuality is expressed by an orange blossom from Morocco, of exceptional quality – like the ingredients of the citrus top notes – mandarin and bergamot from Italy, harvested by the best producers in the world. The heart of the perfume is based on red fruits (raspberry and black currant), which add a tangy, sparkling, joyful note. The musk base adds volume that combines with the marshmallow to give even more power and sensuality”.-Michelyn
