Floral perfume recommendations

My Mum is celebrating her 75th birthday soon, and Dad says she really likes floral perfumes, can I have some recommendations for lovely floral perfumes please? (I know nothing about perfume myself so no idea which one would be good quality and I'd probably have to order it online). Thank you.

Hi, I really rate Shay and Blue for pretty perfumes. I LOVE their Black Tulip. Free delivery, great value and beautiful quality. They come wrapped in a lovely box too.
It depends on your budget really.
The other thing is what scent to go for as floral covers such a wide context. Could your dad sneak a peek and see what bath stuff/body lotion she uses which might give you an idea of scent preference?
What flowers does she like?
The website Fragrantica is great for honest reviews of any perfumes you are considering.
In the absence of any clues, I'd suggest a soft powdery rose/violet as a generic floral crowd pleaser! Good luck!Smile

Stella by Stella McCartney. It's pure roses - gorgeous.

I like this honeysuckle one by Estee Lauder.
There are others in the range such as rose or peoney but they are more intense.
Beautiful, also by Estee Lauder, is nice too.

Shay and Blue do a perfume with figs that I like, but that might not be floral enough.

Oh wow, thank you for these suggestions, I'll get Dad to do a bit of checking out see what smells she likes.
