The Perfect Gifts For The Queen Of Our Hearts

Sunday May 14th is Mother’s Day. A day for the Queen of Our Hearts, whoever that may be for you – a mum, a step mum, another family member, a friend, or a maternal figure.

Maybe they’re still here with us (if you’re very lucky), maybe they’re not here anymore. Maybe you are one, becoming one or wishing you were one.

Now (and every day) is a wonderful time to appreciate these special people in whichever way feels meaningful to you. If that involves gift giving, then finding the perfect present for someone you love can be hard. Either they seem to already have everything they want, their taste is elusive, or it’s hard to find something that properly expresses your relationship with them.

That’s where Lore Perfumery has got your back. There’s something for everyone in our beautiful range of products – really! To prove it to you, we put together a little gift guide to help you choose the perfect gift for anyone and everyone!

This is the person who loves to treat themselves, they love a bit of an online shop and packages are constantly turning up at their house. So, a gift for them needs to be a little more unique.
