Christmas may be over for another year but this does not mean that the gift-giving season is over. After all, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. If you are looking for something special to buy your other half this year, here are some suggestions for all budgets. 

Grooming gift set – Your first Valentine’s Day together

Every man wants to look good and feel good about himself, and a grooming set will give him the tools to do just that. But what if this is the first gift you’ve ever given him?

It can be hard, finding that perfect gift for a man when you have only just started to get to know him. Men’s grooming is a great idea for a gift as it will appeal to everyone, but if you are still nervous about finding that first present, you’re not alone. The first gift you give to someone is incredibly important – it is the first step in a relationship that could potentially be ‘the one’ and getting it right at the beginning is essential. Many people feel huge pressure to find the best gift they can for that new special someone, and often worry that they might get it wrong. Will it look too desperate? Will it be something he doesn’t like? Will it be the wrong colour, the wrong shape, the wrong idea altogether? There is a lot to consider, and often people have the idea that the wrong gift will end the relationship before it has even begun. That’s not true, however. The first gift is precious. It will be treasured. And if it is to do with male grooming, it will be used! Why? Because of the sheer fact that you wanted to give him a gift; it really is the thought that counts.  

A flight experience – Something special 

If you are really looking to wow with your gift this year, you should definitely consider booking your other half a flight experience. There are many different types of flight experiences nowadays, including those on famous aircrafts from the war, such as spitfire flights. Some experiences include flying lessons as wheel, meaning your other half is going to be able to take control of the plane. There is something for everyone so it is really worth assessing the different options that are available so you can find something your partner will love. 

Men’s fragrance – The gift that never fails

Men’s perfume products are becoming more and more popular. Why? It is all part of the grooming revolution that is taking over our high streets, shopping centres, and online stores. Men want to look and smell great, and that means investing in high quality, top of the line cologne and perfumes. 

Men’s perfume is consistently out-performing ladies’ perfumes when it comes to who’s buying what, and the trend is growing. The entire grooming regime for men has changed over recent decades, although there is a certain retro vibe to it that calls to mind the 1930s and 1940s. At this time men, if they didn’t specifically ensure that their hair, face, and teeth were as perfect as possible, at least make sure that they were neat, dressed smartly, and smelled good when they left the house. In those days it was a matter of pride – and it was what everyone did, both men and women. No one wanted to be talked about for looking untidy. But as time moved on and the years passed, although women still enjoyed making themselves look as good as possible, a weariness about dressing smartly, about male grooming in general, set in. After a while, men stepped away from the mirror and the Brylcreem seemingly altogether. By the time the 1990s came around, men didn’t look as though they wanted to bother at all, and so-called ‘lad culture’ made it difficult for anyone who did want to take care of their appearance to do so without being mocked. 

So, if you are looking for a gift that is always going to be well-received, you cannot go wrong with a good aftershave. After all, every man wants to smell good, right?

So there you have it: some of the best gift ideas for men this Valentine’s Day. We hope that you have found something perfect for your other half out of the different suggestions that we have provided! The gift you purchase definitely depends on the stage you are at in your relationship.
