Grandiose gifts
You've all probably wondered what your loved one would most like for Valentine's Day. Some people go for the safe chocolate-flower-dinner trifecta, others want to bring the star down from the sky for their sweetheart, each year they think of something new and special.
We believe in choosing a gift that is both classic, respecting traditions and symbols of love, but also modern, eye-catching and captivating. It's not a challenge: a forever rose box is a gallant, chivalrous yet sophisticated gift that always achieves the desired effect. A breathtaking surprise that stays beautifully fresh for over 3 years, preserving the memory of a magical Valentine's Day.
Famous celebrity gifts
But when it comes to celebrities, they're not short of ideas or money when it comes to planning a prominent Valentine's Day gift: be it Hermes stock, a Bulgari necklace or a platinum-encrusted mobile phone. Let's see who over the years has surprised their partner on the big day: belts to buckle, extravagant (sometimes frothy), unrepeatably luxurious gifts to give.
Michael B. Jordan and Lori Harvey
In 2021, the actor surprised Harvey with a complete gift set. He rented out an entire aquarium, where he hosted a romantic dinner for her, decorated with flowers and candles. Of course, he didn't leave the dishes to chance, but to the chefs at Nobu. After the sumptuous dinner, their home was filled with rose petals and flowers. He had one more surprise in store for his sweetheart: he went shopping at Hermes - not for a handbag, but for Hermes shares in Harvey's name!
David Beckham and Victoria Beckham
David Beckham is a fan of classic gifts, and in 2006 he presented his wife with a magnificent Bulgari necklace worth $8 million, set with diamonds and rubies. Victoria must have the same opinion on classic gifts - and diamonds are her best friend - as she wore the jewellery proudly at the Met Gala in May.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé
Jay-Z has never been stingy in paying homage to the glamorous singer. In 2009, he surprised Beyonce with a lavish, stylishly platinum-plated mobile phone (valued at $24,000) for Valentine's Day.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
Although they are now on separate paths, the star couple have given each other beautiful, but also unusual gifts several times during their marriage. One of Jolie's special gifts was a 200-year-old olive tree, which she gave Pitt for their day of love in 2010. The olive tree was a symbol of peace, stability and longevity, and was placed at their then French estate Chateau Miraval.
Courteney Cox and David Arquette
In 2009, Cox brought home an antique carousel (valued at $45,000) to her then-husband Arquette as a Valentine's Day surprise. A rather interesting choice, we wouldn't suggest for that reason, but in any case they parted ways a year later.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
The late Keith Moon, drummer for The Who, gave his purple Bentley Brooklands (valued at $341,000) to Perry's then-fiancé Brand in 2010.
Jerry O'Connell and Rebecca Romijn
Could there be a more original gift than a vineyard? In 2006, Jerry O'Connell chose a gift for his sweetheart that would grow with their relationship: vines (valued at $52,000) that he planted around their house for Rebecca Romijn. According to Romijn, this became a symbol of their love and she has since referred to this gift as the most touching Valentine's Day surprise.
Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez
In 2014, Bieber played it safe ("I wonder which flower is his favourite...?") and bought up the entire stock of a Los Angeles florist. The extravagant gesture filled Gomez's house with flowers and cost an estimated $2,000.

Gift from The Million Roses
We do not recommend looting an entire flower shop. You only have to look at the range at The Million Roses, where the biggest problem will be deciding which lavish arrangement to choose.
A single rose
A single rose says it all. In our Single Rose collection, you can choose from a wide range of rose colours and shades and premium boxes. One of our favourites is the dark burgundy rose in a burgundy velvet velour box, which expresses our deepest feelings.
We also offer long-stemmed roses, the length of which can be adjusted to your liking, and like all our preserved roses, you can enjoy this variety for more than 3 years. On Valentine's Day, the classic red rose will say the same "I love you" to everyone.
Forever rose box
Nothing symbolizes our everlasting love better than a box of forever flowers. For a truly original gift, mix red roses with a special colour or even gold for a timeless luxury !
Heart collection, the Valentine's Day collection
30 roses in a beautiful heart-shaped box - there's no better surprise for Valentine's Day. Whoever receives it can be sure that there's someone for whom they mean more than anything else: it's the perfect declaration of love.
Monument of forever love
Let's remember the most grandiose gift ever, built as a souvenir of a love that never fades. Not for Valentine's Day, but still known as a monument to eternal love, the most iconic symbol of love, the Taj Mahal, "The Crown of Palaces", is a timeless symbol of devotion and passion that transcends time and space. It was built by Shah Jahan Mughal Shah in memory of his late beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. The building took 22 years to build and was inaugurated in 1654. It was inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1983 and is also listed as one of the 7 New Wonders of the World
