if he has a ~refined~ palette
Truff is basically the Ferrari of sauce brands, so any foodie will love love love this variety pack. It comes with the original hot sauce, an even hotter version, the limited-edition white truffle-infused hot sauce, and (of course) an extra AF black and gold case.
if he’s a lil edgy
if he’s moving out (or just moved in!)
Fancy sheets are a great option if you—like me—use self-tanner that stains your man’s sheets every time you sleep over at his apartment. 😅
if he’s a lil scruffy
Soft, clean, and well-groomed facial hair = better kisses. It’s a win-win for everyone.
if he’s a gamer
This nostalgic gift doubles as a date-night activity!
If he’s a gym rat
Amazon says this heavy-duty massage gun—which features 30 adjustable speed levels and an LCD touch screen—is “great for professional athletes,” but I’m willing to bet your fave fitness fanatic will appreciate it as well.
if he’s learning how to cook
Show him how much you support his sexy new hobby with this set of nonstick essentials.
if he *still* hasn’t hopped on the chain trend
If he’s not into the punk rock silver jewelry look, a simple gold chain is just as cool. This one is perfect for everyday wear.
if he’s everyone’s favorite bartender
A ~spicy~ alternative to the whiskey or bourbon gifts your significant other probably already has.
if he has *literal* cold feet
This holiday is all about love, and who doesn’t love house slippers? These memory foam slip-ons are extra comfy, and the nonslip rubber soles make them easy to be worn around his place. And yes, we both know you’ll be stealing them.
if he’s a homebody
Speaking of comfy! A nice robe to go with those slippers is the perfect gift for the guy who would rather have a cozy night in than a crazy night out.
if he’s a romantic at heart
**Super-sappy gift alert!** This one is for the guy who loves love. It’s a thoughtful DIY idea without too much effort on your part. Just print out these little love notes, then stick ’em in a jar, folded or rolled. The download comes with 365 notes, which is perfect for gifting him a full year of romance.
if he appreciates a good ambience
If the guy loves mood lighting and warm, sultry scents, this is a perfect blend of musk, sandalwood, citrus, and floral fragrances. (It helps that you also love the smell, know what I mean?)
if he’s always jamming out to music
Noise-canceling, wireless, foldable over-the-ear headphones are every music lover’s dream. These have a whopping 22 hours of listening time before the next charge. But just in case he ever runs low, he can use the 10-minute Fast Fuel charging feature to get three hours of extra juice in a pinch.
if he loves deep convos
If your guy loves long chats, then you gotta get him these conversation cards specifically designed for couples. Grab some wine (might I rec Cosmo’s very own brand of delicious vino?) and prepare to get to know each other on an even deeper level.
if he desperately needs a new pair of sneaks
Sorry, but those ratty, worn sneakers of his just aren’t cutting it. Spoil him with a new pair of classic leather sneakers that’ll instantly transform any outfit and go with everything.
if he could use a staycation
Opting for an experience gift instead? Book a last-minute (and socially distanced!) staycation at a cute cabin or cozy house nearby.
if he’s always running late
A sleek gold-accented watch will definitely dress up his wrist, but its subtle design is versatile enough for everyday use too. There are also silver and mixed-metal options in case gold’s not his vibe.
if he loves taking pics
A sleek instant-film camera is the perfect way to document all your precious mems together. Plus, they’re perfect future wall hangings/scrapbook material.
if he likes to get funky with his socks
Regular socks just won’t cut it anymore after he pulls on a pair of these crew socks with arch support and cheeky little embroidered detailing. They’re perf with the sneakers too!
if he could use a new ~parfum~
If his bottle is down to its last drops, then he’ll love a new fragrance with musky notes of leather and amber. And with curbside pickup options, you really have no reason to show up empty-handed on V-Day.
if he needs a new pair of everyday pants
Let’s be real: His go-to pants are probably worn beyond belief, so you can’t go wrong with a fresh new pair. This style can be dressed up or down and is even made from wrinkle-resistant fabric.
if he’s always out in the sun
A pair of trendy tortoiseshell frames with gradient lenses will not only save his eyes from the sun’s harmful rays but will also make him look stylish as hell. Bonus: You can order them totally last minute with expedited shipping.
if he’s into skincare
If he’s particular about his skincare regimen, get him a hydrating and soothing serum to help him achieve a clear, moisturized complexion after each shave.
If he’s in need of an actually stylish coat
He’ll definitely appreciate a stylish parka he can easily layer on. Plus, it’s a great transitional piece between winter and spring.
if he *NEEDS* coffee
Aah, yes, the best gift of all: caffeine. Premium small-batch coffee beans delivered right to his doorstep will make his mornings that much easier.
if he wears suits
If he’s one to accessorize, then he probably doesn’t wear a dress shirt without cuff links. Silver monogrammed ones are undeniably classic. And as if that wasn’t good enough, this set also comes with a matching money clip.
if he’s a bookworm
Help him escape the stressors of a fully loaded workday with this Pulitzer Prize–winning (and hilarious) novel that he can escape into every night, either as a physical copy or on his Kindle.
if he’s a coffee or tea fan
Brewing his own pour-over coffee or making a cup of tea will be so easy with an electric kettle that heats water at lightning speed.
if he likes collecting records
Is he a vinyl guy? Get him the gift of a retro record player with built-in speakers, a dust cover, and a headphone jack for hooking up his phone.
if he’s super sentimental
A leather-bound photo album will keep all your pics in one place, so you two can look back fondly on your memories—and hilarious candids.
if he could use a bit more organizing
Instead of frustratingly unknotting his headphones, he’ll save so much time with a leather earbud organizer that wraps and secures the wires.
if he loves a good drink at home
If he doesn’t already have one, then a bar cart might be the perfect gift to spoil him with this Valentine’s Day. A no-frills design that holds up to 10 bottles will look amazing in any space.
if he’s hyper-organized
A cylindrical hard case that conveniently stores his watches, rings, and cuff links is great for traveling, but it’s also sleek enough to store on his dresser.
if he’s a frequent flyer
You’d be surprised: This slim travel wallet could actually fit a ton (including his passport, cards, and even a tiny pen) without bulking up his pockets.
