Valentine’s Day Gifts For Her

Something for perfume lovers

What could be more perfect for your beloved than Victoria’s Secret Love is Heavenly? This light blend of summery flowers and sugared musk is all about romance. With notes of water lily, mandarin flower and luminous musk, it’s sure to win her heart!
For the strong, sensuous woman, Versace Dylan Blue Femme EDP will hit all the right notes. 

This captivating blend has unusual fruity top notes, a floral heart and a warm, woody dry down of musk and patchouli. 

Something to help her relax

A relaxing soak in the tub will put anyone in a good mood. 

The AA Nature Fresh Bath Salts are so heavenly, you’ll want to make it a bath for two! Choose from rose, lavender, lychee and pear. Or would she prefer a fragrant shower? Simply place an Anihana Shower Steamer on the floor of your shower and let the magical aromatherapy fill the air. Available in Lavender, Watermelon Crush, Floral Fantasy, Lemongrass, Sweet Orange & Grapefruit, and Peppermint & Eucalyptus.  

Something to make her glow

Help her take self-care to the next level with a luxurious beauty gift set. The Designer Brands Fabulous Flora Pamper Pack features a body lotion, bubble bath and a fancy shower puff, all presented in a stylish cosmetic bag.
What about the gift of soft, youthful-looking skin? Um, yes please! The Wild Ferns Bee Venom Face Mask will win you some serious brownie points. Bee Venom is famous for its incredible benefits in energising skin cells and supporting collagen and elastin production. This indulgent face mask also includes the antioxidant powers of Green Tea, Royal Jelly and Vitamin E, which help to deeply moisturise. And yes, boys, that’s a thing we all want! 

Valentines Day Gifts For Two

Make V-Day twice as fun with a gift you both get to enjoy. In fact, forget flowers - the Durex Play Delight Vibrating Bullet will last much longer (and gives a heck of a lot more pleasure!) With vibrations ranging from gentle to intense, the Vibrating Bullet will keep both you and your partner busy for up to five hours. 

For extra fun, pair it with Durex Play Massage 2 in 1 Gel Intimate Lubricant Aloe Vera - it doubles as a massage oil and a lubricant! It’s super soothing on the skin and safe to use in intimate areas. 

Valentine’s Day Gifts For Him

Something to make him smell amazing

Let’s face it: when a man smells good, everyone wins!

Obsession Night by Calvin Klein is a classic for a reason. This deliciously masculine fragrance is seductive yet elegant, fresh yet mysterious. Think black Tuscan suede with hints of nutmeg, rich woods, vetiver, and patchouli - who wouldn’t want to be around that? 

Joop! Jump For Men is another masterpiece that continues to turn heads. With top notes of grapefruit, rosemary and caraway and a musky base, Joop! Jump EDT is irresistibly sexy and magnetic. 

Something for his face

Sure, he’s perfect… but his facial hair could always be better!

Bring out his inner gentleman with the Mr Perfect Beard Grooming Kit. With a comb, beard oil, and wax, this suave little kit has everything he needs to nourish and style his whiskers and bristles. All finished off with a fresh Spearmint and earthy Patchouli scent.

If he’s the whisker-free type, he’ll love the Mr Smooth Close Shave Kit. Featuring a very trendy bamboo razor, zesty moisturising shave cream, and post-shave balm, this little kit will keep him looking smoother than a baby’s bottom.

Something to help him scrub up

If he’s the kind of guy who gets up a sweat in the gym or generally gets his hands dirty, he’ll appreciate a manly soap. Especially if it’s on a rope! The AA Mens Soap on a Rope range smells so good, you’ll be tempted to grab one for yourself (or borrow his!). There’s a soap for every mood: Energize, Relax, and Revive. 

Valentine’s Day Gifts For Anyone

Partner, friend, colleague, brother, mum - there’s no rule about who you can and can’t treat on Valentine’s Day. After all, it’s about showing your love!

Aromatherapy can lift the mood and freshen the senses. This stunning Ultrasonic Aroma Diffuser with its chic black wood finish is a must for any home. Simply add water and your favourite essential oils, and enjoy! 

Beautiful scents have their place in the car, too! A car diffuser is the perfect gift for someone who commutes or travels a lot. The AA Home Car Diffuser range includes uplifting scents such as Musk Flowers, Cedarwood, Gardenia, and Frozen Pear. 

And who doesn’t love a good hand cream? The Fabulous Flora Hand Cream Collection includes six deliciously scented hand creams to keep hard-working hands feeling soft and nourished.

With Hemp Oil, Patchouli Oil, and Lavender Oil to choose from every day, this is the gift that keeps on giving!
