The next suggestion is a luxurious Molton Brown gift box containing the Spring Signatures Hand Cream Trio. The UK brand, with products blended in London, is regularly supplying toiletries to Her Majesty the Queen, a Royal Warrant, which is an extremely prestigious accolade that carries strict guidelines in usage. And no wonder the Queen is a fan, as Molton Brown is without a doubt a very luxurious brand, and is sure to make any woman feel very special. 
This limited edition gift set contains three different hand creams, in the Molton Brown signature fragrances, including;
  • Orange & Bergamot (Yellow Tube) - this hand cream has top notes of orange, bergamot and mandarin, middle notes of neroli, cardamom and galbanum and base notes of musk, ylang-ylang and cedarwood. It is a stunning refreshing and uplifting citrus scent. 
  • Dewy Lily of the Valley & Star Anise (Green Tube) - this Hand cream has top notes of magnolia, middle notes of lily of the valley, and base note of ylang-ylang as well as added star anise extract. This hand cream has a very fresh floral scent, with especially the magnolia being the most dominant. 
  • Delicious Rhubarb & Rose (Pink Tube) - this hand cream has top notes of grapefruit, yuzu and lemongrass, middle notes of rhubarb leaf, rose and spearmint, and base notes: vanilla, musk and spun sugar. It is a gorgeous fruity rose scent with a gorgeous freshness thanks to the citrus fruits. 

These hand creams are so rich and nourishing on the hands thanks to the added shea butter and glycerin along with the nourishing oils of among others sunflower seeds and meadowfoam and they instantly absorb into the skin, leaving them so soft and smooth, without any greasiness at all, and with the gorgeous scents lingering behind. These tube are so pretty with their pastel colours, and each smell absolutely divine, and feel so luxurious to use too. And they have the perfect size to pop into the handbag too.

Or what about gifting her a luxurious new fragrance such as the Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet Roller-Pearl Eau de Toilette from Dior. This fragrance contains notes of;

  • Top Notes: Bergamot, Mandarin
  • Middle Notes: Peony, Damask Rose, Apricot, Peach
  • Base Notes: White Musk

This Blooming Bouquet has such a fresh zestiness thanks to the bergamot and mandarin, and very juicy too from the apricot and peach. Yet the dominant notes are floral scents thanks to the peony and rose, with the white musk helping to ensure that the fruitiness is not too sweet. It is a quite light perfume, that is absolutely perfect for spring and summer.

It comes in a simple and elegant bottle with a square screw-on lid that keeps it securely closed. The idea of the bottle is beautifully embossed with a lace-like design, and the fact that the actual perfume inside the bottle has a pretty and delicate pink shade, makes yet even prettier. The actual perfume comes in a unique Roller-Pearl bottle, that has a delicate pearl on top of the bottle, makes reapplying super easy when on the go.
