Hi everyone,
First off, I'm new and SO excited to have found basenotes. I'm in the thick of a growing fragrance addiction and this is such a great resource. I've enjoyed reading the recent threads and I hope I'll be able to contribute productively as I learn more. (Right now my knowledge is pretty much limited to Sephora's fragrance wall and similar).
But anyway, to cut to the chase... I'm trying to find a new fragrance to give to my mother for Christmas. What are some of the scents you associate with your mother?
I was initially thinking about getting her Narciso Rodriguez for Her because she likes Lovely by SJP, but I think they might be a little too similar-- I'd like to branch out a little more. She also likes Cotton Blossom by Bath & Body Works and has had a virtually untouched bottle of Amarige de Givenchy for about ten years now (gift from Dad obviously gone wrong).
I'm thinking that I'd like to get her an everyday kind of scent rather than something for evening because she's really tired of the dating scene. :-) Either way, if anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
Thanks for reading. :-)
