5 divine Valentine’s Day fragrances for him and her

This Valentine’s Day, we’re embracing the hype. Think bigger than flowers and chocolates, and pamper that special someone with one of these signature scents.


Oh, Valentine’s Day – a holiday celebrating love with chocolates, flowers and pink cards filled with cringey compliments. And while we know it can be full of fluff, most of us adore it for exactly that.

We love the excuse to embrace the stereotypical hype of it all. The excuse to indulge in your favourite sweets and show someone (whether it’s your partner, your best friend or yourself) how much you truly care about them is a big enough reason to celebrate in itself. 

So, if you’re searching for the perfect Valentine’s gift, why not get something you both can enjoy and treat yourselves to luxurious his and hers fragrances. Each pair is designed to subtly compliment each other, like every couple should, from fresh and floral scents to warm and musky colognes. 

Plus, many of these designer perfumes – Hugo Boss, Gucci, Armani – are on sale right now, so hurry while discounted prices last.

  1. Hugo Boss The Scent Absolute Him, €87.50 and The Scent For Her, €55

Simple and sweet, Hugo Boss The Scent Absolute Him is a wintry blend of ginger, maninka fruit and mondia whitei roots, while The Scent for Her has lighter notes of honeyed peach, freesia and cocoa.

2. Emporio Armani Stronger With You, €62 and Because It’s You, €58

With these two fragrances, opposites really do attract. Infused with a smoky vanilla and chestnut essence, Emporio Armani Stronger With You perfectly balances with the citrus, rose and jasmine scents in Because It’s You.

3. Gucci Guilty Pour Homme Set, €56 and Pour Femme Set, €71.20

Both of these Gucci Guilty sets come in a gorgeous gift box with gold detail. The Pour Homme set includes a 50ml cologne and shower gel and the Pour Femme set has a 50ml perfume and body lotion – both are a beautiful blend of botanical and woody notes.

4. Viktor and Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision, €66 and Flowerbomb, €90

You can buy Viktor and Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision as a set with a travel spray or separately. For the bubbly couple, Flowerbomb has a sparkly, floral fragrance with orchid and rose, and Spicebomb is fiery with lemon, black pepper and nutmeg.

5. Gucci Mémoire d’une Odeur, €68

 

No one advertises a unisex perfume better than Harry Styles, who can be spotted in Gucci Mémoire d’une Odeur’s latest advert. It comes in a gorgeous, green glass bottle with a gold cap and is made with Roman chamomile, Indian coral jasmine and cedarwood.
