We’re not sure whether the whole V Day in February thing is actually a worthy occasion or just an excuse for the world to over-indulge in too much dark chocolate, but hey, we’re not opposed to a bit of genuine romance. It would be churlish.

But when it comes to excessive indulgence, we’re suddenly afflicted by a touch of the Grinch fever, as with this Goldgenie Dozen Roses With 24K Rose gift. For one thing, anyone who receives something like this is immediately going to get very suspicious. Really? You got me a gold rose? For real? Why, what have you done?

For another, it’s just a bit over the top, don’t you think? Does it say any more about your feelings than a single beautifully wrapped and meaningful daisy given from the heart? Ho-hum. OK so for those of you who still feel the urge, there’s also a Platinum Rose version, both of which will cost you £247 + VAT deliverable to London UK addresses only. International deliveries will only be a single gold or platinum rose.
