In the past I’ve relied on Fortnum & Mason for some gift hampers and they’ve always been very impressive.
I’m sure that their Valentine’s Day Champagne Box will also live up to expectations.
Yes, Craig… always a sound choice! Businesses don’t usually stick around for more than 300 years if they’re not getting things right for their customers!
My dearly beloved is vegan and very diet aware. I think the Sparkling Wine Case from Drinkwell might even meet her demanding standards.
I hope it lives up to expectations, Tom! There are a lot of ’empty calories’ when it comes to alcohol usually, so this is a great alternative option.
My wife’s gone vegan too and looks very good on it. I haven’t gone vegan and still don’t look very good at all. At least these wines are a gift that we could enjoy together.
I know that it’s not the most romantic of gifts but I would really appreciate one of those Helly Hansen mid-layers. Lately, there have been a few mornings when it’s been – 6 when I’ve bern walking the dog.
Helly Hansen have amazing technology behind their clothing – I’m sure you won’t be disappointed, Diana!
I’ve got a whole outdoor wear wardrobe of Helly Hensen stuff and they are yet to let me down. Thoroughly recommend their gear, it always does the job.
Couldn’t agree more, Rachel… my family swears by their HH gear!
My advice would always be to go for lingerie. It’s an intimate choice.
Thanks for dropping by with your advice, Jasper!
I feel like it’s so easy to please a woman on Valentine’s Day because we like so many things! But maybe the men in our lives need a list like this!
I think the pendant could be the gift for my partner. I’d want to check with her first. I’ve sometimes given her jewellery which she’s never worn. I’m not that brave.
I think those boots would be a win with my partner. I think I need to sleep on that one before I make a purchase. Oh and I also must check her size without getting spotted.
It might help you to know, Mo, that Ruby & Oscar offer a 30 day Money Back Guarantee.
Good luck with that, Darius! Unlike many of the other boots of this kind, the Gatcombe boots are fully waterproof all the way up to the knee which can be extremely useful.
Those Neuhaus chocolates look absolutely amazing. I’d be delighted to receive those.
They are Belgian so bound to be good! (Jean Neuhaus Jr. invented the Belgian praline in 1912, by the way…)
I’ve got my own laptop tray, using it now as I read in bed. I’m sure that my other half would appreciate one too, especially if I designed it for her. What more could a woman want for Valentine’s Day?
Hi Andy – I’m sure one that you had custom-designed would win you lots of brownie points!
That’s a lucky coincidence. You’ve just reminded me that my wife had dropped a subtle hint about getting a blow dry volumiser. Now I know what she was talking about and what to get.
That was indeed lucky… happy to be of service, Dan!
I love that red tote bag. That shade of red is absolutely adorable.
There’s actually 20% off on that very bag on their website right now, by the way…
That Fortnum and Mason breakfast box would be the dream start to Valentine’s Day. After that the pressure would be on. What comes next? Private jet to Paris for lunch?
Well… you never know, Charli!
It’s Valentine’s Day. It’s got to be those flowers from Waitrose. End of conversation.
Glad you’re sorted, Graham!!!
There’s always something deliciously decadent about wrapping yourself in a luxurious dressing gown. All the top hotels know that. I’d be very happy with a gown for Valentine’s Day.
You’re quite right there, Zoe… it always feels a special treat!
My girlfriend loves houseplants but is away on business or long weekends so often that the plants often look sorry for themselves. The Urban Botanist would be the perfect problem-solving gift for her.
Yes, the perfect houseplant solution for people who are away a lot (or who are just not very good at watering!)…
My culinary skills are legendary. As they’re so bad. I think I’ll have to call on Dukeshill for the romantic meal for 2 to get me out of a hole on the 14th.
I think you’re talking for a lot of us here. I’m going to turn to Dukeshill. I wouldn’t trust myself with a Valentine’s meal.
I have mine already! I just hope I can cook it to the same perfection as in the picture – that’s exactly how I like my steaks.
We don’t usually do Valentine’s presents. I think the eternity ring would make for a great surprise. After all we have been married for a quarter of a century.
Congratulations, Richard!
My wife really is in need of a cosmetics pouch. It’s not the sort of thing that she buys for herself.
Thanks for stopping by, Alex… I hope she likes it if you end up buying the item for her!
The marketing for the Jean Paul Gaultier So Scandal is certainly out there. Then again my girlfriends into extravagant statement fragrances. I think this fragrance could be a great match for her extrovert character.
It sounds like it could be, Adrian! Thanks for stopping by and good luck with your Valentines gift shopping!
There’s a huge diversity of gifts here. My partner is a very discerning lady though I hope to find something amongst all these suggestions for her.
Thanks for commenting, Alan… yes, there’s quite a mix – hopefully something for everyone!
I can see the personalised map being an absolute winner. For so many of us are best memories are often intertwined with travel.
As a cartophile (someone who loves maps), I’m quite fond of that one, too. I think it makes for a rather lovely gift.
Looking ahead to the next tricky days for us men are you planning to dine of these gift guides for Mother’s Day? It’s probably looming ahead towards the end of March.
Don’t worry, Tom… we have already started compiling one for Mother’s Day! That will be a first for us this year, and we’ll look to do a piece both for Mother’s Day in the UK (27th March 2022), as well as Mother’s Day in the US (8th May 2022).
I know that I’m leaving it late and that I need to get on with it but I think the heart travel charm could be the answer.
Hi Kev – if your other half already collects charms and loves to travel, I think that’s a great choice!
Should not Valentines Day in the title have a possessive apostrophe? Most of the recommended gifts have the honour of a possessive apostrophe.
It should, you are quite correct, Gerald! We had it right throughout the article, but slipped up with the title. Thank you for the correction – I know many reading will probably think this is all rather pedantic, but I’m a pendant myself so am happy to be corrected… off to put it right straight away!
I’ve always looked for gifts that we can share for Valentine’s Day, so my contenders are the breakfast box, the meal and of course the wine.
All good choices, Chris, and I like your thinking!
How things have changed! When we were first married all I got was a card. Then about 10 years ago I started to get some roses as well. Having read this selection, it’s time my husband moved up through the gears for Valentine’s Day.
Great list of gift ideas for Valentine. My favorite (to give and to receive) is the sparkling wine case from Drinkwell. But a dinner invitation would be also nice.
So many things that women will love! My favorite is the breakfast box from Fortnum & Mason. Everything looks yummy and pretty. The boots will be great as well.
You got me at Egyptian Collection Luxury Towelling Dressing Gown. However, I am also intrigued at the personalized maps. This is a list I am forwarding to my mate soon so he can settle with what he can give me on V-day, haha!
Such great ideas for celebrating Valentines Day. Any of these would be welcomed, especially the classics of chocolate, wine, flowers, jewelry and lingerie.
I would gladly take any of these. But a special points from me would come from that HH jacket. I have had many clothes from them and they are so great. And the hair dryer is awesome. I have one.
Ok, I’d be lying if I said there were only a few things on this list I’d love to get for Valentine’s Day! So many of them pulled at my heart strings (like the destination themed shadow-box) and appealed to my love of luxury indulgences.
I would adore waking up with a tray of breakfast treats and champagne, beautiful flowers, and an assortment of decadent chocolates. Call me a traditionalist, but you sure know how to make girl feel special!
Thanks for giving me some inspiration. I’ll definitely be ordering a several of these luxury gifts for myself and a few as gifts for others – even beyond Valentine’s Day.
Very good list of Valentine’s day items for him/her. Each item is one of a kind and any one would appreciate to receive them.Petite ecosystem by Urban Botanist is very good.
