For Christmas my bf will be going to see her, should I buy her Christmas gift?? Would this be a nice detail or weired since we have never met in person? And if so what should I get her, I was thinking perfume?? Thanks

Yes you can and it is a good idea.

You can send her a fancy greeting card with a nice message; or a unique tree ornament.

 Just something small maybe, like some chocolates or bath stuff, nothing expensive :)

 I wouldn't give her a gift unless I was close to her and knew her very well,i.e., not via skype or email. espcially not something that she may be deathly alergic to like perfume. Wait until you've met her and known her for severl years.

 i think it's sweet... but if you do, make it something fairly impersonal and not expensive.

 I would just send her a nice and thoughtful Christmas card. Keep it casual until your relationship gets serious.

 While "the thought" is charming (that you would like to make a gift to his Mother)..... I think it is premature in the time of your budding relationship...
Merry Christmas...
