5 Senses Gift Ideas: an Unforgettable Gift for your Partner, Mom, or Best Friend

Whether the occasion is anniversary, birthday, or Valentine’s Day, a 5 senses gift is a lovely detour from the predictable belt/socks/gift card. Not only will this gift surprise and delight, it is also so much fun to put together, getting you in the gift-giving spirit of truly considering how to indulge your loved one.

Although 5 Senses Gifts are often considered for romance, they are also very thoughtful gifts for Mom or a best friend. Check our idea list below for anyone you would like to pamper!

What is a 5 Senses Gift?

A 5 Senses Gift is just what it sounds like- a collection of gifts, either presented in a gift basket, or wrapped individually, that focuses on each of the five senses: Sight, Smell, Taste, Touch, and Sound.

There are some gifts that check several boxes, so you can make the 5 senses gift happen with less than 5 gifts (you can see those options below). Either way, we’re here to give you some excellent ideas for a 5 senses gift. Make sure you read to the end to get a free printable download to help you package your gift just right!
