Fragrance-Inspired Gifts Guaranteed To Last Longer Than Flowers

Scent-sational.

While there’s no denying mum should be spoiled all year round, Mother’s Day gives us a very special chance to show her just how much she is loved and appreciated.

Sure, a bunch of flowers is beautiful and can brighten up her living room for a few days, but this year, we want to give her gifts that are as long-lasting and memorable as her love.

With fragrance so closely linked to memory, we’re making mum’s day one she won’t forget with these scent-sational gift ideas.

For Her To Wear On Special Days

Gucci Bloom Eau de Toilette

The perfect fragrance for the woman who taught us to love and celebrate our true selves, Gucci Bloom Eau De Toilette is a soft blend of orange blossom, jasmine, tuberose and Rangoon creeper, enlightened by sweetened neroli.

Capturing the scent of a thriving garden filled with an abundance of blooming flowers, the perfume is like a fresh bouquet that keeps on giving.
