2.Mariage Frères Sakura Tea, EUR10, + Add To Wishlist

3.Eric Bompard Square Scarf, EUR245, + Add To Wishlist

A classic Eric Bompard cashmere scarf/sweater has actually been quoted to be a staple in every Parisian lady’s closet, according to French style icon and model Inès de La Fressange.

4. Durance Candle, EUR14.95, + Add To Wishlist

Nothing does a home justice quite like scented candles to give it a depth of its own. ShopandBox Durance candles in a variety of scents, from pink grapefruit, musk, deep amber, fig milk, vanilla, and even orange and cinnamon to spruce up mum’s abode wonderfully. If candles aren’t mum’s cup of tea, check out their range of room diffusers.

 

5. Longchamp Le Pliage Travel Bag, EUR135, + Add To Wishlist

Naturally, the best go-to travel canvas bag in our books comes in the form of Longchamp’s Le Pliage bag. Lightweight, flexible and classically designed, the Le Pliage makes a great travel carry-on for mum for her weekend vacays. This one is especially a winner with the ability to expand vertically to become an extra gigantic bag!

 

6. Christian Louboutin Lipstick, EUR80, + Add To Wishlist

What we love about these beautiful Louboutin lippies? It combines fine colour pigments formulated with complex natural oils and seed butters while making a pretty necklace, thanks to its unique elixir vial design that comes with a silk ribbon.

 

7. La Maison du Miel Avocado Honey, EUR5.90, + Add To Wishlist

Instead of the usual Manuka honey, try out avocado honey from its wealth of benefits whether for your skin or hair. Avocado honey also has a bold flavour profile that’s slightly smoky with a taste similar to molasses. Miel Honey is an artisan family- run honey house so it definitely takes the cake for being truly unique.
