Ah Mother’s Day. It comes round every year, and the gift of fragrance is no doubt an appreciated gesture by many mums out there. But with perfume being such a personal choice and all that, it’s important to consider the mum you’re gifting it to, right?
Sure, we’ve got the usual floral fragrances and fruity scents, but we’re also the connoisseurs of niche here at e-scents which means we have an appreciation for the unique; for the quirky. We wouldn’t feel right following the crowd

An opaque satin flacon made from Italian glass, not only will this add a touch of elegance, but it will fill her home with an infatuating composition of fresh bergamot and warm sandalwood. There’s a delightful herbal accent of cayenne pepper too, creating a scent as luminous as she is, but that she can share with all who come to visit
