12. Jo Malone home fragrances:

The stereotype of women loving a good candle is (mostly) true – but then again who doesn’t love a fresh-smelling home? Jo Malone’s candles and diffusers have one of the strongest throws (the spread of the fragrance) we’ve ever seen (or rather, smelt), so you won’t have to break bank buying one for every corner of the house.

In fact, depending on her preference, she may not even need to burn it to release the scent – simply open the lid and let it do its job! Clueless about your options? We recommend the light and unisex English Pear and Freesia candle that will please both of you, or Pomegranate Noir for a darker and more complex scent.
