Must-Have Christmas Presents for Your Wife 2022

1. Boy Smells Cinderose Candle – £42, Liberty

Cinderose candle

The brand name may be Boy Smells, but girls love them too – there aren’t many candles out there in this price point that have such great throw and longevity. Cinderose is one of their bestsellers, but check out the full range and cross-reference it with her existing candle collection to narrow down the one she’ll like best.

"This is the perfect gift for the wife who has everything," says Zoe Burke, Editor of Hitched. "She'll be super impressed that you've done your homework and bought her such a chic present!"

Pros & Cons: This trendy brand will earn you lots of brownie points and look fabulous on a coffee table or shelf. It boasts 55 hours of burn time so it's well worth the price tag.

What is the Best Christmas Present for my Wife?

Christmas is a romantic time of year so if your wife loves the sentimental stuff, it is the perfect season to gift her a present that is thoughtful and sentimental. Jewellery and personalised gifts are a great idea, or for a gift that keeps on giving month after a month think about a subscription box.

Consider her hobbies or a present that you know she would love but wouldn't typically treat herself to such as a luxury pair of a socks or a bougie set of beauty products.  

"The best Christmas present for your wife is something special she'll adore, but wouldn't necessarily buy for herself," says Zoe Burke, wedding expert and Editor of Hitched. "Listen to what she talks about in the run up to Christmas as I guarantee you she'll drop a hint or two. You can't go wrong going by listening carefully. If you're really stuck, treat her to an experience you can share together."

How Many Christmas Presents Should I Get for my Wife?

How many Christmas presents you buy for your wife will depend on your budget, but between one to five is typically a good rule of thumb. You might want to gift her a few smaller items to open or pop just one truly special present under the tree. 

For even more present picking inspiration, you'll find tonnes of gifts for your wife here
