Whether you're single, married, in a relationship, or even in a situationship, everyone loves to feel spoiled on Valentine's Day – even if it's just for yourself. The classic indulgences of flowers and chocolate (Men, this is the bare minimum!) or a touch of jewellery never goes out of style. However, it does get old if you keep doing the same thing over and over and I get it sometimes, finding that perfect gift can be really challenging. That's where we come in to help. While you might not initially consider Neem as the go-to spot for the 'perfect Valentine's shop,' Let me share a few sustainable gift ideas to help you choose the best Valentine's gift for your eco-friendly partner, all conveniently available at Neem's St. James location.
Gabar Myanmar
Nothing speaks more luxury and says 'I love you' than a new perfume. Gabar is built on the very premise that every single person on this Earth comes with a specific mission. Gabar taps into that dynamic 'self' by offering tools and rituals to help access the present and push for self-expansion, awareness, and expression to rediscover who it is that we really are. Drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of South Asian culture, Gabar crafts the most unique scents for both men and women. To elevate the experience, be sure not to overlook their exquisite body oil—a perfect indulgence for a post-shower treat.
Concrete & Wax Candle
I am convinced there is not a single person out there who doesn’t love a candle. Concrete & Wax offers some of the most unique and long-lasting candles available on the market. All candles are poured into stylish concrete vessels. Therefore, when you are done burning the candle, you have a free concrete glass to reuse over and over again. Now, I'm not saying just buy a candle for your significant other; it can very easily be included in a basket of goodies or gifted with a spa day. Or, if you are having a romantic dinner at home, buy a few candles to light up the room and scatter some rose petals. It's a simple, sweet, and genuine gesture any person would love.
Neem Beanies
For those who love fashion, outdoor activities, or are planning a holiday to a cold destination, beanies make the perfect gift. These beanies are not just like any others; they are made in Germany and crafted from 100% cashmere, that is fully biodegradable. They are sustainable, fashionable, and will keep anyone warm. The beanies are available in four colours including: navy, green, red, and oatmeal. This would be perfect for those planning a cold trip over the weekend or those gifting an outfit as an accessory. P.S. Our overshirts pair excellently well with the beanies.
Neem Scarves
Another item for fashion enthusiasts is scarves. We offer a variety of scarf collections, ensuring there's one to fit any personality. Particularly gorgeous are our eucalyptus scarves (yes, you read that right, eucalyptus), which are fully biodegradable. These popular scarves are made and printed in Como, Italy. Additionally, we have a collection of recycled wool scarves that have been especially popular this winter. These scarves perfectly complement any of the cashmere beanies listed above. Furthermore, we offer another collection of eucalyptus scarves, albeit thinner, ideal for the stylish individual in the relationship. These scarves come in multiple plain colours and prints. Opting for any scarf this Valentine's Day is a safe choice for those who are always getting cold in the relationship.
Onee Boxers
One thing I've learned over the years is that men never seem to have enough pairs of boxers. One essential boxers offer a classic fit with stretch, made from a super-soft blend of premium recycled, organic cotton, and biodegradable elastane, providing all-day comfort and support. While gifting boxers may not scream "I love you" in the most romantic way, they do say that the best gifts are the ones your loved ones wouldn't buy for themselves. So, including a pair of boxers in a nice grooming gift basket would make for a great Valentine's Day gift.
