Valentine’s Day gives us a moment to celebrate the relationships we cherish most in our lives, be they platonic or romantic.
For some, it’s a time to indulge in chocolate, watch romantic comedies and read love poems to one another (ok, perhaps that’s for the select few…). For others, it’s a day to gather with friends, tequila in hand, and reminisce on wild antics and plan future girls’ holidays and nights out.
Those marking the occasion with a loved one, however, will know how painful it is to search for great presents. Too cringey are the heart-shaped truffles and teddy bears for most of us, which means we’re left scrambling the night before with glue and tissue paper in an attempt to make a ‘thoughtful’ DIY card and ordering a takeaway the night of.
Fortunately, we’ve done the hard work for you this year and rounded up the perfect Valentine’s Day gifts for boyfriends, husbands and every other special man in your life that are affordable, luxurious and undeniably coveted. From champagne to skincare, these gifts are so good, you might even want to steal them for yourself.
