Look at Valentine's Day not only as a time for traditional gifts like roses and a box of chocolates but also as an opportunity to add some spice to your love life.
Try a special and naughtier take on these traditional themes, especially if you have gone beyond the wooing, honeymoon phase of your relationship.
Ditch the traditional
Roses need not only be 'a bunch of roses' necessarily, but a bed strewn with fresh rose petals (or silk ones if you must).
If you are feeling particularly creative, shape a heart or your loved one's name in the petals and surprise them — you can even blindfold them and lead them to the bed.
Get in the mood
The first step for setting up a romantic Valentines evening if you have kids is to book a babysitter or obliging relative, well in advance. Privacy and the intent to indulge in a special evening just for the two of you is a gift in itself.
Next create the perfect mood and setting. Candles are essential and a burst of aphrodisiac room and linen spray helps to set the mood and make the bedroom into your private seduction boudoir.
Set the mood for a seriously romantic evening by relaxing in hot bath and soaking in seductive bath milk.
Chocolate may provoke a biochemical reaction similar to the emotions of love and lust so chocolate is still a 'must do' but instead a bar or a box of chocolates get artistic with chocolate body paint.
