Bonjour! Léon here, dropping in from Paris to assist our American customers with the gifting occasion that can stump even the most savvy son or daughter: Mother’s Day!
In preparation for this special Spring day, I’ve curated a collection of gifts for Maman. Some of them are French (like me!) some are local to Southern California (where our headquarters resides!) and some are simply dreamy, one-of-a-kind gifts that no Mother could ever forget. (As for our plant sets, they are all three, and sure to thrill Maman’s green thumb!).
So enjoy this list, mes amies, and in case you are wondering, I will never refuse a gift of catnip, dry champagne, or a bit of ripe fromage (as a treat!).
Wary Meyers Mediterranean Fig Candle
I like this American brand, with its aesthetic so reminiscent of the 1970s. All of their candles are simply magnifique, but why not try the Mediterranean Fig Candle? It’s a vacation in a (recycled glass) jar, sure to remind Maman of that trip she took to Saint-Tropez back in the day. If you’re lucky, she might even tell you the story of what happened there!
Officine Universelle Buly Alabaster Set
Officine Universelle Buly is more than just a Parisian iconoclast (and it takes one to know one). They carry some of the most rare and luxurious home interior scents around! With a whole flock of unique fragrances from which to choose, the alabaster set is an elevated alternative to incense or diffusers. I guarantee that your Maman will be the only one on her street in possession of this olfactory treasure! (That is, until they inevitably explode in popularity).
