For everyone:

It’s a no brainer to go with chocolate for Valentine’s Day. But spice it up a little this year with insanely addictive Drunken Caramels ($22.95) by Chocolate Storybook. These bad boys come infused with some of your favorite spirits, including bourbon, Guinness stout, chardonnay and cabernet. If your loved one likes a little something sweet for the holiday, these will keep ’em coming back for more. And more.

Your lady’s name might not be Lisa, but she will want a bottle of Lisa by Luz de la Riva ($25). The Lisa organic pheromone inducing body scrub kills two birds with one stone. First and foremost, it will replenish and exfoliate your lady’s skin, making it smooth and hydrated, thanks to the essential oils packed within it. Made from a trio of organic salts, including Alaea Hawaiin, Himalayan and Bolivian salt, this scrub will also help to release pheromones, making it a gift for not only your girl, but also for the guy who’s doing the giving, as well.

Talk about a bargain!
