Nothing beats a personalised Valentine's present. Send the name of the place you first met and you'll get a personalised street sign for your bedroom wall.

8. Marc Jacobs Bang Bang

£27, debenhams.com

It's all about masculine sandalwood and light and airy citrus notes in this, the new iteration of Marc Jacob's Bang scent. It's so nice, you could steal it from your chap and use it yourself.

9. Nicolas Feuillatte Rosé

£45, johnlewis.com

Ditch the cheap plonk and plump for something a little more impressive. This pink champagne from Nicolas Feuillatte is light, fruity and comes in its own presentation box.

10. Truffle Butter

£9.99, selfridges.com

Chocolates are perfectly nice, but not the most original of gift ideas. For real foodies, get this lip-smacking truffle butter, which can be used on everything from poultry to pasta.
