Linda Levy, president of the Fragrance Foundation, says fragrance is a timeless 
Mother's Day gift, and picking the right one is easier than it seems.

"I think you can take what seems like an overwhelming subject and 
really net it down by looking at scent categories and those which are really trending," 
Levy said.

This season, Levy says floral and fruity scents are leading the trends. She highlighted 
two fragrances in particular: Choose You from House of Beau, a brand-new scent 
the Fragrance Foundation recently featured at the Miami Botanical Gardens, 
and Dolce & Gabbana's Light Blue, which she described as aquatic and floral.

Levy also explained why spring fragrances differ from holiday picks.

"In the wintertime, there's a tendency to go for heavier, more intense, 
more of a gourmand cozy, wrap yourself up in a kind of scent. 
Where in the springtime, the florals and the lighter fragrances," Levy said.

She compared fragrance to fashion, calling it an "invisible accessory" that should shift with 
the seasons just like clothing does.
