As Mother’s Day approaches and the Australian winter settles in, it’s the perfect time to indulge the special women in our lives with thoughtful, luxurious gifts that bring warmth and comfort. This year, we’ve curated a selection of thoughtful items inspired by the incredible products we’ve discovered throughout the year, focusing on Australian brands and winter-friendly treats. From rich hand creams to cozy candles and evocative fragrances, these gifts are perfect for pampering Mum.

1. Alpha H In Good Hands Renewing Hand Treatment

Winter can be harsh on the skin, and hands often bear the brunt of it. For mums who love gardening and spend the milder weather planting spring bulbs or pruning roses, a good effective hand cream can be a real treat. The In Good Hands Renewing Hand Treatment is a deeply nourishing cream designed to repair and hydrate dry, tired hands. Infused with Australian macadamia oil and vitamin E, it’s a practical yet indulgent gift that keeps hands soft and smooth all season long.

2. Chasing Scents Rain Tea Perfume

A gift for mum who adore unique fragrances, Chasing Scents’ Rain Tea is a dreamy pick. Made in Australia, this perfume captures the nostalgia of a rainy day, blending fresh, rain-soaked earth with the warmth of black tea and osmanthus flowers. It’s a cold season delight, and one of the most beautiful tea scents we’ve encountered in a long time. This is a great transitional scent that can carry over to spring, and from a niche Australian brand to boot!

3. The Glow Getter Multi-Oil Body Butter and Bio-Lipid Restoring Body Lotion

Started by skincare guru Susan Yara, Naturium has been a favorite for a long time. The Glow Getter Multi-Oil Body Butter is packed with ultra-nourishing macadamia, jojoba, and rosehip oils, making it a dependable dry skin savior. It melts into the skin, leaving it silky smooth and radiant. With a subtle, natural fragrance, it’s ideal for mums who prefer understated scents but still want a little everyday luxury. If she prefers something lighter, the Naturium Bio-Lipid Restoring Body Lotion is fantastic too!

4. Carthusia Terra Mia Eau de Parfum

Carthusia’s Terra Mia has been haunting our minds all year long and we’ve been waiting for even the slightest chill in the air to wear it again. While not Australian-made, its cozy notes of coffee, hazelnut, and vanilla make it a delicious Gourmand. For mums with a bit of a sweet tooth, Terra Mia would be a great addition to her fragrance wardrobe.

5. Library of flowers True Vanilla Bubble Bath

There’s nothing quite as indulgent as a warm bubble bath. As we continue on our gourmand journey, Library of Flowers’ True Vanilla Bubble Bath delivers rich, creamy bubbles infused with natural vanilla extract and skin-loving ingredients. Both Sweet and sophisticated, it’s the perfect way to help mum unwind in pure, fragrant bliss. For the ultimate at-home spa moment.

6. Mihan Aromatics Petrichor Plains Candle

Capture the magic of an Australian rainstorm with Petrichor Plains, a candle that brings the outdoors in. We love the Petrichor Plains perfume and this candle, with earthy notes of vetiver, eucalyptus, and amber, similarly evokes the fresh scent of rain on dry soil. It’s a stunning gift for nature-loving mums.

7. Grandiflora Saskia Perfume

This Australian-made artisanal masterpiece won the 2022 Art and Olfaction Awards  for an Independent fragrance and after first sniff, you can understand why. A rich symphony of flower bouquets, Saskia transports you to a thriving florists’. Dominant gardenias and buttery blends of ylang ylang and boronia creates a unique fragrance that stands out. A perfect Mother’s Day Gift!
