Mother’s Day Fragrance Gift Guide 2021 collage by Michelyn (because a card isn’t enough)
If it was up to us, Mother’s Day should be a national 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). Were you planning on buying your mother flowers? According to smartasset, nearly 70 percent of all Mother’s Day gifts are flowers. They are a popular choice, but ever so fleeting. So, if you are going to say “I love you Mom,” make sure it is a bouquet that will never fade. At ÇaFleureBon we believe she would love a gift that is SCENTED. Here are our suggestions (and most all are under $100):
Jewelry, like flowers, is a popular gift for Mother’s Day. Why not combine a magnificent necklace with the scent of the intoxicating joy of pure floral essences? Strange Love NYC lostinflowers (Christophe Laudemiel) 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. This custom-designed 24 karat gold-plated is held on a thin 24″ chain and contains 1.25ml of pure perfume oil. Available at Strange Love NYC/$180 Available to a registered reader in the US, EU, UK (you must register on our site or your comment will not count).-Michelyn Camen, Editor-in Chief
