on Oct 16, 2022
Many of us spend the Christmas season with our families, where opening gifts is a fun, shared experience for all to enjoy. Be sure to keep it that way with our list of discreet temptations that are easy to pass off as something less-than-risqué.
Even if you’re hoping for something naughty this year, you still might not want to find yourself opening a 9 inch silicone surprise in front of your nearest and dearest.
That’s why we’ve come up with these treasures you can give to your partner, regardless of your company. You might know there’s an intimate treat or two in waiting, but with these 8 subtle yet sexy gifts, nobody else has to.
A Red Rose
Unlike traditional bouquets, this pretty petal will never wilt – and its hidden seductive powers will have your lover blooming with sexual excitement. Made from velvety-soft silicone with a gorgeous rose design, this vibrator could easily be mistaken for an ornament. But when the lights are out and it’s time to play, you’ll find it's blessed with 10 intense suction modes, sure to blow your partner’s socks off.
What customers say: "I was given this as a birthday present by my husband who never usually gives me flowers. It is a beautiful shape and can be left out without anyone being any the wiser to what it really is. Very easy to use, right spot located quickly and with the various speeds and patterns I can be quick or enjoy a slower more leisurely pace. My husband has also tried it out on his nipples which he really liked."
A Board Game
Everyone loves a board game after dinner, so why not gift one? The Lovehoney After Dark game promises fun, laughter and steamy encounters for up to four players, letting each participant discover and reveal all those saucy secrets. Roll the dice, confess your kinks and learn more about your partner’s sexual desires as you play.
What customers say: "Lovely clean look to the packaging and I like that it’s not too in your face. Except for a couple of logos there would be no way of telling that it’s naughty so no real need to hide it away from prying eyes. All in all I’d really recommend this to any couples who enjoy adding a bit of a game to their sex lives and love to find out more about each other’s naughty thoughts and fantasies."
A Bubble Bath
Treat your lover to a spa-like experience with all the home comforts they already love. Our Lovehoney Apothecary bubble bath is perfect for those evenings where you want nothing more than to relax and unwind. Creating soft, foamy bubbles and an incredible passion-inducing aroma, it’s ideal for intimate underwater moments. Don’t forget your waterproof toys!
What customers say: "I definitely found it a relaxing and pampering sort of fragrance, one you're happy to lavish in the bath with - and the scent stays on skin for a good long time too. Tumbling into bed with someone after they've had a bath with these bubbles is glorious."
A Lip Balm
When it comes to a sexy stocking stuffer, cherry orgasm balm is the perfect sweet treat. Presented in a tiny tin that helps it to look just like lip balm, this cheeky gift adds tingles to after-dark play.
What customers say: "This is only a small pot (looks like a lip balm-be careful not to get them mixed up) but it does the trick. I keep it in my handbag and pop a bit on before I go home to get me warmed up. Just gives you a nice subtle tingle which you are aware of and helps get you in the mood."
A Deck of Cards
Is it your usual pack of cards, or is it hiding a saucier secret? To any quick observer, this deck is no different to any other, but to your lover? A promise of dirty talk and excitement to come. This pack of 52 playing cards is brimming with beginner phrases and daring deeds for you and your partner to explore. Gift anywhere, anytime but just remember to save the sexy talk for the bedroom.
What customers say: "Got these as we had a holiday booked and the OH liked a game of cards. I wanted to get him going and build up some tension whilst playing a ‘normal’ game. We loved it, by the end of the game we were definitely ready to play something else!"
A Soothing Massage
Why not surprise your lover by becoming their very own personal massage therapist? This 100ml bottle is infused with a sweet blend of ingredients for a sensual scented erotic massage. It's discreetly packaged with a luxurious finish so your inquisitive audience won’t suspect a thing - but your partner can delight in knowing the real gift is yet to come.
What customers say: "So this oil smells really nice! At first smelling the open bottle I didn't think it smelled much at all. But as soon as its out and applied it smells lovely. Not overpowering either. The scent itself is very arousing. Although that may have been the massage too!"
A Reed Diffuser
Whoever said seduction can’t be subtle? Pass off your erotic gift as a home fragrance accessory with this reed diffuser from Lovehoney’s Apothecary range. It won’t raise any eyebrows when your lover unwraps it, and it will fill your room with the scent of saffron, patchouli, jasmine, amber, cedar and vanilla. Fitting seamlessly into your décor, its sweet notes are sure to set the mood for arousal.
What customers say: "I also enjoy the different layers to this scent and love that the cedar mellows out the sweetness of the amber and vanilla. It was absolutely lovely to have this alongside the candles and oils for a cosy and seductive night in. I hadn’t considered adding a diffuser to the set up of a sensual mood before, but it’s truly been a treat!"
A Sleep Mask
Suggest a little sensory play with a gorgeous mask – or better yet, make it a gift set. Soft satin means this accessory looks like nothing more risqué than a sleep mask, but after dark you can use it to turn up the heat between you and your lover. Increase their anticipation, and every touch will feel more electric.
What customers say: "This satin blind bold feels great on the skin and is not tight against your eyes that you feel like your going blind. It sits perfectly. It arrives in normal subtle packaging and was well received by my other half."
