Valentine’s Day Gift Guide with a French touch
We all have a woman in our life who is fond of the French culture and have dreamed of leaving everything behind to move overseas. Perhaps that woman is you?
If you want to celebrate her, we’ve selected five gift ideas from Le Shop that will make her feel extra special this Valentine’s Day.
For the poetic lover
“A la folie” Tomette by artist Marie-Sophie Maury
We love a gift with a loving message. La Tomette “A la Folie” is the French way to say “to the moon and back.” Handmade by artist Marie-Sophie Maury, the shape of the tomette is inspired by the traditional tile you’ll see in Provençal home’s floors. Each tomette is carved by hand in a particular clay from the South of France, called Terre de Salernes. It is a very unique gift that can be used as wall decor, coaster, or essential oil diffuser.
For the fancy lady
Solid Perfume by Rose et Marius
Offer the gift of elegance with a unique “Concrète”, the solid perfume by Rose et Marius. It comes in a beautiful zamac box, and once finished, can be refilled with one of five refills. The scent of this perfume, named “A stroll under the oratory”, blends the intoxication of incense with the sweetness of sandalwood bark and the golden fleurs of mimosa. An elevated accessory for the stylish woman on-the-go.
For a cozy moment
“La Vie” Floral Candle by Love in St Remy
The floral candle “La Vie” by Love in St Remy is an invitation to welcome spring into your home. Its pear blossom fragrance evokes the blooming orchards that brighten the Provençal countryside as winter finally releases its frozen grip.
Pair it with an organic night tea by Provence d’Antan and our Best French Forever journal, and you just created a simple yet cozy retreat for a moment of self-care.
For an hydrated skin
Verbena Citrus Silky Lotion by Théophile Berthon
Théophile Berthon has been a laureate of the Slow Cosmetics label since 2014. That means they put the environment and the humankind front and center in every product they create, from conception to distribution. The Lait Soyeux (Silk Lotion) is no exception. We love its fresh and tonic fragrance of verbena citrus. The perfect companion to brighten our winters!
An ode to Self-Love
La Box Amour by Best French Forever
La Box Amour includes three items that invite the recipient to a moment of self-love the French way. The lavender eye pillow is made of organic muslin cotton, making it extra soft. The ruby-red nail polish is non-toxic and a guarantee of the highest quality. The bath salts will transport you to the heart of Provence with their rose scents, leaving your skin soft.
