Forget the flowers; our editors have higher gift aspirations this Valentine’s Day.

• KISS BY RIHANNA

  By VITA Daily

  Superstar and style icon Rihanna launches her newest fragrance at Shoppers Drug Mart this month just in time for Valentine’s Day. The third fragrance in her namesake RiRi collection, Kiss by Rihanna is seductive and playful. The white floral fragrance is mixed with top notes of Neroli with a touch of juicy plum and Freesia. At the heart is orange blossom, Gardenia and Asian Pony. The base is cashmere wood, cedarwood and Ambergris. The result? Feminine and  pretty but lighthearted at the same time. The striking powder blue tinted bottle (designed by Rihanna herself), features the collection’s signature sphere with a golden cap, both alluring and sophisticated. $69 at Shoppers Drug Mart
