So what does Lusita recommend? "When shopping for Valentine's gifts this year smaller is better. Aim for meaningful gifts that show you paid attention and you’re connected with your partner's needs and wants," she says. If your guy mentioned he could use a new pan, for instance, pick him a new one for Valentine's Day! Or maybe you've noticed his pajamas are looking worn. Time for a new set! Does he lose his keys often? An AirTag keychain would be a thoughtful gift.

Gifts inspired by authenticity and heartfelt connections are another great way to go. Something sentimental like custom artwork or an engraved flask is nice. If you've got a fun-loving guy, light saber chopsticks or a Lego set make perfect presents. Check out all our top options for Valentine's Day gifts for him and find your man something he'll love.

$65 at Vosges

You probably won't find a more interesting box of chocolates than Vosges' Love Frequency Red Energy, and Lusita recommends this gift. "I love that the chocolate is infused," she says.

Vosges created this confection collection to highlight the divine masculine, so what better way to show appreciation for the man in your life? 16 truffles incorporate wild strawberry, Ancho chili, yuzu and mascarpone cheese, and Sicilian pistachio flavors for a spicy sensory experience.

I now have one stylish place to put everything including my phone, watch, jewelry, etc..... and I no longer have to look at a messy nightstand."
