Last year, Australians spent approximately $995 million on Mother's Day gifts, with perfume topping the list. But before you wrap up that designer fragrance, let's consider this: many mainstream perfumes are concoctions of synthetic chemicals that can be more foe than friend to our health.

Why are mainstream perfumes so bad for our hormones, and what are safe options? Let's dive in!

The Hidden Dangers of Mainstream Perfumes

While that beautiful perfume bottle might look fancy, it often hides a not-so-sparkly truth. Conventional perfumes can contain up to 3000 hidden chemicals, most of whicharen't listed on the label. The catch-all term "fragrance" can mask toxins like phthalates linked to hormone disruption, reproduction & development issues, as well as early puberty. Learn more here.

Natural Perfumes, Our Safe and Alcohol-Free Alternatives

Natural perfumesare crafted using botanical extracts, essential oils, and plant-based ingredients instead of cheap synthetic concoctions. They're free from harsh toxins that interfere with our hormones. 

Plus, many plant oils bring aromatherapeutic benefits too. Lavender calms, citrus uplifts, sandalwood grounds —it's  Nature's wellness toolkit in a tube or bottle. That's a Mum-approved move!
