FAIRY TALES Fragrance Rollerball Gift Set
If you're not sure which perfume is her style and want to gift options, don’t hesitate to buy Ellis Brooklyn's “dreamiest” fragrances set. It has five different adorable rollerballs from the clean beauty brand, offering floral, citrus, and vanilla scents all in one very gift-worthy package, and is sure to sell out quickly. There are a few other sets for every preference, including this floral mini.
Fragrance in Shower
Jones Road Beauty, makeup mogul Bobbi Brown's latest venture, has just restocked the brand's new fragrance. It’s a perfect gift for just about anyone due to its close skin scent and light, fresh notes of neroli, orange blossom and sea spray — which is why it’s simply called Shower.
Billie Eau de Parfum
Take our money now — beloved brand (including by Oprah) Harlem Candle Company has released fragrances like Billie, inspired by the legendary Billie Holiday and the gardenia she often wore in her hair. It’s got a full floral open with creamy musks and sandalwood base. If a night-blooming jasmine and vanilla orchid scent is more mom's style, try Josephine.
"AFTER SUN" Eau de Toilette
What if your scent is a whole experience, like an evening apres-beach? That is exactly what sunscreen brand Vacation aspired to when creating perfumes based on the notes in their best-selling sunblocks. Following the success of the fruity, aquatic "VACATION" fragrance, "AFTER SUN" has notes of green tea, melon, and “Minibar Gin” which reviewers say is a perfect clean scent with “something nostalgic about the smell that I cant quite put my finger on but I love it!!”
Acne Studios par Frédéric Malle Eau de Parfum
Acne Studios and Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle teamed up to create a vibrant scent made with hints of rose, violet, and incense mixed with vanilla, sandalwood, and a note of peach skin to make you feel magnetic and radiant.
Flora Carnivora Eau de Parfum
If Mom is a Michelle Pfeiffer fan, consider gifting one of her signature Henry Rose perfumes. The clean, gender-neutral fragrance brand (founded by the Hollywood star) has grown quite a following. Try Flora Carnivora, which has notes of jasmine, tuberose, orange flower, cedar, musk, and more -- for an olfactory experience that reviews call "perfection in a bottle."
Kayali Eden Sparkling Lychee 39
Radiate cheeriness with this fruity floral that brings delicious, juicy lychee to the forefront along with notes of vanilla and rose for the perfect blend of hopefulness and romance — perfect for bringing smiles to your face this spring.
You Remind Me Eau de Parfum

Private Blend Eau de Parfum Discovery Set
If mom is a Tom Ford fragrance fan but you can’t quite squeeze the $300 price tag into your budget, this four mini set is a perfect gift. Besides the fan-favorite Tobacco Vanille (reportedly worn by Taylor Swift), find Oud Wood, Rose Prick and Soleil Blanc in this ultra-giftable and versatile collection.
Sunlit Blooms Eau de Parfum
LA-based Dedcool has been crushing the It-Girl clean fragrance game, and this recent release is no exception. With notes of orange blossom, white florals, and salty vanilla, it’s a unique spring-to-summer scent. Reviews say it is nostalgic and smells like how a kiss on the collarbone feels.
Sweet Tooth Caramel Dream Eau De Parfum
Sabrina Carpenter's Sweet Tooth Caramel Dream is a beautiful grown-up candy scent for spicy gourmand lovers. It opens with a wearable chocolate, citrus, and caramel note then dries down to a heady base of patchouli and amber.
Frangipane Parfums Pour Femme
The rare Frangipani flower, violet, orange, and jasmine are sensually captured in this well-rounded scent with warm vanilla and musk base notes from French brand Chantecaille. It’s a top-shelf perfume if you want to spoil her and the lasting fragrance makes it worth the splurge.
