HANDCRAFTED PERFUME

Dirty Hinoki Perfume

One of the most thoughtful gifts you can give is a unique perfume. Scents can evoke memories and emotions, making them an ideal gift for Valentine's Day. A unique fragrance can also be a personal expression of style, making it a fantastic way to show your partner that you understand and appreciate their individuality. We recommend “Dirty Hinoki” by Heretic Perfume. This perfume is a unique blend of lemon, cedar and hinoki, meant to evoke a Japanese forest bath. The combination of these scents makes for a combination of the fresh and the musky, making it the perfect unisex fragrance. For more perfume ideas, we're loving this list of travel-inspired perfumes over at Fathom!

UNUSUAL PUZZLES

Geode Puzzle in Pinks

In addition to their aesthetic appeal, puzzles are a great way to bond with your partner over a shared activity. Whether you work together to solve one or take turns putting the pieces in place, puzzles area fun and challenging way to spend time together and strengthen your relationship! We especially love this Geode Puzzle from Uncommon Goods. Once complete, this puzzle can function as a beautiful piece of home decor that will add a touch of sophistication to any room. The puzzle is designed to resemble a geode crystal, with a vibrant, multi-colored interior. 

Another great idea is to choose a puzzle that depicts a place that's important to your partner. Be it a landmark you visited together or a painting your partner has always loved, puzzles can be an amazing and fun way to show your partner how well you know them!
