Luxurious last-minute holiday gifts
Flowers
You can never go wrong with flowers—unless your significant other is allergic, in which case you can go very, very wrong. These Chilean peonies from The Bouqs Co. can add a pop of color to an otherwise dreary winter. But to go all out, look no further than Eternity™ Roses from Venus ET Fleur ®, which will last up to a year.
Lavish: The Bouqs Co. bright pink peonies, $89
Over the top: Venus ET Fleur® Eternity™ Roses ®, $399 for a large box
Luggage
Let’s face it—no one is actually going anywhere this holiday season. But why not be optimistic and gift luggage for when the world returns to normal? A large-sized suitcase from Away will hold everything you need for a globe-trotting rendezvous. But for the discerning traveler, you’ll want to go with a paneled woven-leather suitcase from Aviteur, which creates suitcases that are stitched and assembled by hand, and designed to “evoke both the past and the future.”

Sheets
If you’re going to be stuck inside all winter, you might as well have nice bedding. Help that special someone in your life sleep better with luxurious linens. A linen sheet bundle from Brooklinen can give them a one-way ticket to the land of Nod. But if you’re looking for something more luxe, you can go with the Leontine Linens Home Trousseau, a linen experience valued at $55,000.

Headphones
Headphones are a perfect holiday gift. The recipient can use them everyday to listen to their favorite music or podcasts. Our lavish pick is these noise-canceling Bose headphones that drown out ambient noise. At almost $300, they aren’t exactly cheap. However, if you really want to flex your gift giving muscles, you can pony up for Focal’s Utopia by Tournaire headphones. They require more than a year to create, and are designed with 18-karat gold, and mounted with 6.5 carats of diamonds.
Lavish: Bose QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones II, $269.95 (on sale!)
