March is here which means Mother's Day is just around the corner so gift ideas of flowers and chocolates will be springing to mind and also filling supermarket shelves. However national surveys actually show that almost half of mums aren't bowled over by these cliché gifts.
So to help you out I have rounded up my top 5 gifts for mother’s day that will be perfect for any mum this Mother's Day with not a single flower or box of chocolates in sight!
Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Kit
Elizabeth Arden is a brand that has been around for over 100 years now and has without a doubt gained full recognition for it's high quality and amazingly hydrating products. So this set containing 4 products from the 8 Hour range makes for a truly lovely gift. My favourite product in this set would have to be the Eight Hour Lip Protectant Stick as it looks after and nourishes lips in winter but also hydrates and protects them with the SPF 15 in summer - a true handbag staple! Just an all round lovely gift set that any mum would love.

DKNY Golden Delicious
Nothing says "you deserve to be treated" than a fragrance gift set and this DKNY Golden Delicious set is certainly a lovely floral and fruity scent but with maturity. This amazing golden coated apple 50ml perfume with body lotion is definitely one of the more mature scents in the DKNY Delicious range with top notes of red apple, orange and white flowers to give a clean scent and base notes of sandalwood to give a warm base to the perfume.
Baylis & Harding Moonlight Set
For anyone on a budget this foot pampering set is a lovely option. The set is aimed at pampering tired and achey feet, starting with the foot soak crystals to revive and refresh both the feet and legs in warm water. Then the foot balm can be massaged in to soften the skin and popped in to the wonderfully soft purple slippers. This is all beautifully presented in a large gift box to make for a really nice pampering gift.
Paco Rabanne Black XS
Another great fragrance gift set here with the Paco Rabanne Black XS 50ml EDT fragrance and 100ml body lotion. This scent is alluring, mature and definitely one to be worn for nights out with it's rich notes of chocolate and cranberry to give a bitter sweet scent that is quite intriguing. This would be well suited to any mum that appreciates deep, rich scents that last well on the skin.
Carolina Herrera 212
Carolina Herrera's fragrance are a favourite of mine as they all seem so fresh and clean and versatile with all occasions - day or night. This particular perfume is a classy, confident scent with no age limitation and again can be worn for any occasion. The notes in this are all fairly fresh with top notes of orange blossom and lily, then finally maturing to reveal notes of rose and a slight hint of musk. A perfect all round suitable fragrance for any women.
Hopefully this has given you a few ideas and can lead you away from the easy chocolates and flowers option!
