By Dr Hauschka
We love Dr Hauschka products. They use sustainable resource management and the ingredients are produced by either biodynamic or certified organic agriculture, or are wild-harvested. This body oil contains rosa damascena extract, which is known for its nurturing, strengthening and harmonising qualities. In other words, it smells really nice.

By Jo Malone
Part of what makes Jo Malone products so lovely is the packaging. The cream-coloured boxes are tied with black ribbon, and the gift lies nestled in black tissue paper - it's almost a shame to unwrap it. However, it would be hard to keep your hands off this gift. You get six small bottles of fragrance including orange blossom, pomegranate, amber and lavender. The idea is to layer the scent until you create a bespoke perfume that's right for you.

This truly decadent gift will be sure to please the mother who has everything. Four roll-on oils sit within a soft leather pouch. They are designed to be used alone or layered throughout the day, apparently complementing your 'changing olfactive sensibilities'.

By Neal's Yard
It's hard to go wrong with Neal's Yard products. This gift set awakens and revitalises the body: the geranium and orange body polish is made with mineral-rich Dead Sea salt and and will buff your skin until it is as soft as a baby's bottom. Then the 100% organic body butter provides an intensive moisturising boost, leaving skin silky soft.
