1. Thoughtful Gift Sets for Mom: The SOJA&CO. Experience

The Mother's Day Collection — Lilac + Rosemary

For Mother's Day, SOJA&CO. is proud to present an exclusive collection born in Montréal and crafted by hand with love: Lilac + Rosemary. A floral, herbaceous, and deeply tender fragrance — a tribute to all the extraordinary women who surround us, and a way to turn ordinary moments into something beautiful.

Discover an olfactory journey that unfolds in three layers:

• Top notes: Lilac bouquets, orange zest, rosemary — a luminous and fresh opening, like a May morning.
• Heart notes: Soft spices, white peony, morning dew on green plants — a delicate, floral heart full of warmth.
• Base notes: Oriental musks, vanilla, tonka bean, sandalwood — a warm and enveloping trail that invites her to unwind.

This collection comes in three beautiful products:

• 4 oz Candle — The ultimate wellness accessory in a giftable format. As the flame burns, it gently releases the Lilac + Rosemary fragrance, transforming any room into a sanctuary.
• Ambiance Spray — A cloud of fragrance to spritz around the room or on linens. Instant relaxation, anywhere.
• Reed Diffuser — For continuous diffusion of the Lilac + Rosemary scent, day after day. A gift that carries your love throughout her space.

And to accompany your gift with a heartfelt message, two greeting card designs are also available — because sometimes, words are the most beautiful attention of all.

✨ Our favourite combination: Pair the candle, the room spray, and a greeting card for a complete and thoughtful gift set she'll adore.

SOJA&CO. Body Care — Beauty and Softness at Every Step

Because self-care is its own kind of gift, SOJA&CO. also offers a range of body care products that are as luxurious as they are natural. The body milk and hand cream, both in the warm and captivating Tangerine, Sandalwood & Amber fragrance, are among our most beloved gift ideas for her — and for good reason.

Lovingly formulated with natural, deeply moisturizing ingredients, they melt into the skin and leave a soft, lingering scent. A simple but generous gesture that transforms mom's everyday routine into a true moment of beauty.

• Body Milk — Lightweight and fast-absorbing, it nourishes skin deeply while wrapping her in a warm, sensual fragrance.
• Hand Cream — Rich and soothing, it takes care of the hands that give so much, day after day.

2. The Style Statement: Lambert Bags

For the woman who loves beautiful, locally made accessories, Lambert bags are an excellent choice. This Quebec brand designs PETA-certified vegan leather bags — supple, durable, easy to care for, and 100% animal-free. A stylish and ethical gift that combines contemporary design with lasting quality. A Lambert bag is a Mother's Day gift she'll reach for every day and think of you every time.

From compact clutches to roomy totes, their collection has something for every personality — and every budget. Discovering Lambert means falling in love with local craftsmanship.

3. Fresh Flowers: A Thoughtful Bouquet from Léo Comptoir Floral in St-Lambert

Flowers remain one of the most timeless ways to celebrate the mothers in our lives. But what if that bouquet came from a local artisan florist? Léo Comptoir Floral, in St-Lambert, creates unique, colourful, and personality-packed arrangements — each one handcrafted with carefully chosen fresh flowers.

Choosing a bouquet from Léo is a way to offer authenticity and creativity while supporting local business — a gesture mom will love, and one that makes this special day feel even more meaningful.

✨ Pro tip: Order ahead! Mother's Day bouquets sell out fast at local florists.

4. A Beauty Treatment at Beauties Lab — For a Radiant Mom

A heartfelt way to show your appreciation for the special woman in your life.

✨ Gift card option: Offer a Beauties Lab gift card and let her choose the treatment that suits her best.

5. A Spa Day — The Ultimate Gift for True Relaxation

For moms who genuinely need to disconnect, a spa day is the perfect gift to show appreciation for everything she does. The greater Montreal area is home to many exceptional establishments offering special day packages that include thermal baths, massages, and body treatments. Whether you spend the day with mom as a family or invite her to go with her closest friends, a spa day is far more than relaxation — it's a chance to create lasting memories and celebrate the occasion beautifully.

6. A Pottery Class at Monokinii

Sometimes the most beautiful gift isn't an object — it's a memory. Monokinii, a pottery studio in the heart of Montréal, offers the Sip & Clay workshop: a fun and creative experience where participants shape and decorate their own ceramic piece, drink in hand, guided by a passionate instructor.

Picture mom and her daughter, or mom and her best friend, hands in the clay, hearts light — sharing a rare and unhurried moment away from the everyday. All skill levels are welcome; the studio tailors the experience to every participant so everyone can create, laugh, and truly be present.

An original gift idea perfect for the mom who has everything — one that goes beyond the expected and leaves behind far more than a beautiful piece of pottery. A must.
