If you’re looking for a gift for your mother that will be meaningful and special, buy her one of her favourite perfumes.  We’ve rounded up classic perfumes she would have worn over the years and loves even more now.  

Classics are just that for a reason, because they are superior perfumes that have stood the test of time and still remain relevant and amazing.

Here we list 5 such timeless and classic luxury scents worth trying.

PERFECT INTENSE PERFUME BY MARC JACOBS

Perfect Intense by Marc Jacobs for women is an Amber Floral fragrance for women with top notes of Daffodil and Night Blooming Jasmine, followed by heart notes of roasted almonds and sandalwood. Perfect Intense Perfume is a rich, golden, irresistible scent that celebrates unapologetic self-expression.

Like the original fragrance that launched globally in July 2020, Perfect Intense is inspired by Marc Jacobs’ personal mantra: “I am perfect as I am”. An uplifting ode to individuality that women generations before us fought for, Perfect Intense explores a new facet of self-love, encouraging everyone to celebrate and revel in the powerful beauty of being real, being bold, and being #perfectasiam.

 OPIUM BY YVES SAINT LAURENT

Yves Saint Laurent paved the way for heady, rebellious scents with Opium back in the late seventies. And the intoxicating blend of jasmine, patchouli, and vanilla, still makes for a head-turning scent today. While the bottle has been reimagined to mimic its successor Black Opium, the scent will be just as your mum remembers – unapologetically bold.

SAFARI BY RALPH LAUREN

Embodying the spirit of the outdoorsy, American dream lifestyle, Ralph Lauren’s Safari is as iconic as the brand’s polo shirt (well, in the fragrance world, that is!). With green notes at the top, a bouquet of carnations, rose and jasmine at the heart and patchouli dry down, it will spark a trip down memory lane with every spritz.

 N°5 BY CHANEL

If you’re looking for a failsafe gift for your mom, you can’t go wrong with the cult classic, No.5 by CHANEL. From the powdery, floral notes to the iconic bottle, she’ll love rediscovering one of her all-time favourites – and will appreciate the dose of luxe you’ve added to her every day.

ANAIS ANAIS BY CACHAREL

You might have grown up with Cacharel’s Amor Amor, but for your mum, it was all about Anais Anais. A single spritz of the signature florals (notes of lily, carnations, and orange blossom) will unlock memories of her formative years.
