Valentine’s Day Gifts for Him: 50 Non-Cheesy Presents He'll Love (2024)

Valentine’s Day Gifts for Him: 50 Non-Cheesy Presents He'll Love (1)

Valentine's Day shopping for the man in your life can be a minefield. That's why we've put together the ultimate guide to Valentine's gifts for him for 2023.

The best Valentine's Day presents are everyday luxuries based on something the recipient already enjoys. Remember, it's about what he actually wants, rather than what you think he should want. You may want him to read more, for example, but if that's just not his thing, a book club subscription is going to be pretty pointless. Similarly, a man who isn't into running isn't going to start joyfully pounding the pavements after you produce a Valentine's Day Fitbit.

A gift for him on Valentine's Day should say: I see what you love, and I want to give you more of it.

Is he into cooking? Some high-quality kitchen tech should go down a treat. Does he take his grooming seriously? There are gorgeous products and sets that can upgrade his experience. Is he a real homebody? Get him some time-saving devices or a chic interior buy to make his space feel even better. And so on.

From cool tech to non-cheesy Valentine's day gifts for him, there's a thoughtful present here to suit all kinds of interests. Get ready to have his Valentine's Day gift sortedin record time this year!

Should I Buy Him a Gift For Valentine's Day?

Even if your partner isn't upfront about wanting a gift for Valentine's Day, if he means a lot to you, giving him something to celebrate this occasion is a lovely gesture. If you want him to feel appreciated, Valentine's Day is the perfect moment to show him you care.

Buying him a Valentine's Day gift doesn't have to be a huge moment where you declare your undying love, so if you are unsure whether to gift him or not, our edit has lots of non-cheesy Valentine's Day gifts for him to choose from.

What is the Best Valentine's Gift For Him?

The best Valentine's Day gift for your other half is a present that you have put time into picking to ensure it is something that he needs or you know he wants. Zoe Burke, editor of Hitched, recommends tapping into a hobby of his.

"Think about what it is that your partner enjoys doing in his spare time and look for a gift that nods to that, or introduces him to a new hobby. Consider what hewould want from the gift, for example if he has said he would love to try out some new recipes, a cooking class is a great idea."

Zoe also suggests picking a present that he wouldn't typically treat himself to. "If your partner has had his eye on something but hasn't quite made the plunge to purchase, Valentine's Day is the perfect time to treat him. Luxury grooming products will be appreciated, or a clothing item that he's always wanted."

What is a Good First Valentine's Day Gift For Him?

Zoe says that you don't have to go overly romantic with your Valentine's Day gift if that isn't you. In fact, a non-cheesy Valentine's Day gift for him is a popular choice with couples.

"If it is your first Valentine's Day together and you don't want to go over the top, opt for a practical gift such as a new fragrance or something light-hearted like a funny present," she says. Our round-up of the best funny Valentines' Day gifts will give you tons of inspiration.
