Buying an erotic gift for your partner can be a thoughtful gesture to express your love and appreciation. However, lots of people shy away from buying gifts of this nature due to the risk of getting it wrong or even causing offence.
But an erotic gift can be an amazing way to display your affection if you approach it with sensitivity and consideration for your partner’s boundaries and preferences.
So, what do you need to look out for when you buy an erotic gift?
It’s important that you don’t go wading in to buy something that you like, hoping that your partner will like it too. Consider any hints that they’ve given in the past. Think about what they usually like in bed and enhance that experience.
For example, if they are a particular fan of oral sex, then perhaps a sex toy that replicates that for when you’re not around, like a suction vibrator or a male blowjob simulators. For inspiration, check out the items below.
The innovative Twitch is a suction and vibration toy and your best friend when it comes to foreplay, increased clitoral blood flow and vaginal lubrication. Hands-free and beautifully designed, this body-safe cup has 2 tongues and a cluster of thrilling mini hairs for incredible stimulation. Fitting perfectly over the clitoris, this waterproof, silicone toy creates a gentle suction that will help you achieve your most intense orgasms, ever.

Just like every surprise gift, you may need to drop the topic into conversation to understand exactly what they might enjoy. Plan ahead of time and talk about what they like, what fantasies they have and new things that you want to try together. This will lay the groundwork for your erotic surprise.
Remember that what your partner likes could differ from your personal preferences. That’s okay. The gift is to help them enjoy sex and shouldn’t make them feel uncomfortable or pressured into doing something they don’t like. Consent is paramount in every intimate relationship.
The length of time that you’ve been in a relationship can drastically change the impact of an erotic gift. If you’re in the early stages, or have a casual relationship, then a fetish gift or sexy lingerie may not be appropriate. Why not opt for something more playful, such as the Foreplay Sex Roulette or the You and Me Card Game to help you have fun and get to know one another (pictured?
Add a twist to your intimate escapades with Sex Roulette Foreplay Edition, the exhilarating game by Tease and Please. It’s time to turn up the heat in your love life with just one spin of the board’s arrow. Wherever it points, a steamy, erotic challenge awaits.

High-quality lingerie can ignite passion and boost confidence. Choose pieces that accentuate your partner's assets and make them feel desirable. Consider styles that cater to their taste, whether it's classic lace, bold leather, or playful silk.
As with any gift, quality over quantity is always the best option. Always look for reputable brands and ensure body-safe products. Spending that little extra on a single gift will guarantee a better result and avoid disappointment.
Customising a gift with personalised wrapping will also show how much thought you’ve put into the gift. Perhaps you buy a gift that you’ve had a previous conversation about, so it shows that you’ve paid attention to what they like, then create a personal message to deliver it.
This not only enhances your sex life, but will also strengthen your intimate connection and give your gift a unique touch that they’ll remember.
Or, if you’re really struggling, let them customise their own gift with some Sex Coupons that your partner can redeem for intimate experiences or romantic gestures (pictured).

Instead of solely focusing on the gift itself, try to create an atmosphere of intimacy. This will ensure that your gift is well received. Avoid a public setting and create a candlelit, soft lighting moment where your partner can fully relax and feel special. This will make sure your erotic gift has the impact that you’re looking for.
The gift may even be part of the atmosphere that you’re creating. A sensual massage with a silky massage oil or massage candle can create an intimate and relaxing atmosphere so you can enjoy the tactile pleasure of giving and receiving sensual massages. You can’t go wrong with the rose-scented Massage Candle from Ouch (pictured).
Light the Ouch rose scented massage candle and ignite an erotic mood for the ultimate sensual body massage. The Ouch candle offers sensual lighting, a scrumptious scent, and a smooth glide all in one.
