For a Mother’s Day like no other, why not surprise her with a luxury Mother’s Day gift she’s always wanted but never bought? Think pearl-adorned earrings that lend elegance to any outfit or a sculptural fragrance that feels both bold and feminine. If she’s always on the go, wrap up a compact jewellery case to help keep her jewellery safe while travelling. Or, for the beauty lover, surprise her with a soothing facial wand that offers spa-like care at home. For gifts that say “you deserve this,” this is the sweet spot.
