Floral-Themed Mother's Day Gift Alternatives with Yankee Candle Discounts
This year, Mother's Day occurs on Sunday, 15 March, leaving shoppers with limited time to secure presents for timely delivery. While flowers remain a traditional choice, floral-inspired gifts offer a longer-lasting way to honour mother figures. Candles, for instance, mimic the scent of blooms but provide weeks of enjoyment. Yankee Candle currently offers a 30% discount on all signature candles, plus a personalised option for £25 using the code MUM.
With hundreds of fragrances available, Yankee Candles can evoke cherished memories, from holiday moments to the welcoming aroma of fresh flowers. This makes them an ideal Mother's Day gift for 2026. Our round-up features five floral-themed alternatives to flowers, many on sale, allowing shoppers to treat on a budget. From candles to clothing, handbags, and bracelets, these gifts offer unique and lovely options.
Yankee Candle Signature Large Jar Candle in Pink Sands
Now priced at £20.99, reduced from £29.99, this candle is described as an exotic island escape with bright citrus, sweet florals, and spicy vanilla. Customers praise it for transporting them to another world, though some find it sweet. Once lit, it fills a room with a gorgeous scent. All signature Yankee Candles are 30% off, with alternatives like Wild Orchid and Midnight Jasmine available.
For a personalised touch, use the code MUM to get a custom candle for £25, allowing choice of fragrance, a special message, and a photo print. Although delivery may take longer, the reaction could be worth it. Additionally, the new Yankee Candle Little Luxuries set includes two tumbler candles in Serenity Stone and Slow Bloom scents, presented in a ribbon-topped box for last-minute shoppers.
River Island Pink Lilies Chain Tote Bundle Bag
Priced at £66, this set includes a tote handbag and matching purse from River Island, featuring a lush lily flower design in pastel pink. It's the most expensive item in our edit but could be a group gift for siblings. Ideal for spring outfits, it may be used immediately on Mother's Day outings. The light shade may show marks, but the material is easy to clean for minor stains.
Mint & Lily Personalised Birth Flower Charm Bracelet
This thoughtful and unique bracelet from Mint & Lily costs £30 and celebrates individuals with birth flower charms. Available in silver, gold, or rose gold, it resists rust and tarnish. Personalise it with the recipient's birth flower or your own as a symbolic treasure. Options to add multiple flowers allow family involvement. The bracelet comes in one size with two extender lengths for adjustability.
Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire Eau de Parfum 50ml
Now £52.50 at Boots, down from £105, this bestselling fragrance features notes of fresh water rose and woody musk. It's a floral pick for Mother's Day, with Superdrug offering it for £88. Customers praise it as a favourite for its fresh, long-lasting scent. One shopper bought it for their mum, who loved it, while another noted it wasn't to their taste but was enjoyed by their mother.
Roman Ivory Floral Sequin Knit Jumper
Priced at £25.20 with the code SPRING, reduced from £28, this jumper from Roman adds brightness to wardrobes for transitional weather. Pair it with jeans and ballet pumps for an elegant spring look or with a midi skirt and boots for work. Customers report compliments on its appearance and appreciate its non-drab colours. It comes in a relaxed fit, which may not suit all, but the discount is available for a limited time.
