10 V-day gifts that aren't chocolate (or flowers)

Valentine’s day has become synonymous with its dinners, flowers, chocolates and multitudes of pinks, reds, and whites. Well, we think it’s time to think outside of the (chocolate) box, and found the best gifts that still have that romantic element to them but won’t wither in the coming week. Read on to discover the ten gifts (for him AND for her) that your loved one will use and reuse in the coming months. 

1. For the fragrance enthusiast, this Malin & Goetz trio set comes in their best selling dark rum scent and includes a candle, hand+body wash, AND a perfume.
