Give your mom something sweet for Mother's Day

May 1, 2010

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, here a few fabulous scents for the the amazing woman in your life.

If you mom is fashion forward, chic and elegant she may enjoy Balenciaga Paris. After 12 years, Nicholas Ghesquiere of Balenciaga felt that it was time to introduce the world to this fragrance that embodies French elegance. This scent is the first in what is anticipated to be a long collection of fragrances to come.
