Our Top Picks
1. Best for Booze Fans: Grand Marnier Cuvée du Centenaire
If you're looking for a gift for a liquor lover who has everything, consider putting together a gift basket that includes this orange liqueur. It is the most prestigious cuvée cognac aged up to 25 years combined with wild oranges to create a lush libation that's as delicious in a cocktail as it is on its own.
We appreciate its wonderful, rich refinement and its candied orange, tobacco, and balsamic flavors. While it tastes like a rounder, with velvety notes from older cognac blends, it also has lingering flavors of dried fruit, almonds, and honey.

2. Best Luxurious Tequila: Patrón en Lalique Serie 2
What happens when you combine artisanal tequila and one of the most recognizable names in luxury crystal? Of course, the most exclusive and elegant bottle of tequila available.
Every bottle of Lalique Tequila is made with care in a glass factory in Alsace, France. It spends 8 years aging in American oak, French oak, and sherry barrels. We like the exceptionally long aftertaste that lingers with notes of honey, fruit, and a mild agave flavor.

3. Best Fancy Mezcal: Clase Azul Guerrero Mezcal
If you're looking for a suitable present for a buddy, a Clase Azul Mezcal would be a great addition to their bar.
We love how this mezcal highlights the terroir of the Mexican state of Guerrero by using the rare papalote agave, while the decanter pays homage to the region's culture. Known for its roasted agave and sweet, spicy caramel flavor notes, this mezcal is famous for its rich flavor.

4. Best for Outlander Fans: The Sassenach Blended Scotch Whisky

We are blown away by how fresh apricot and orange, with a drizzle of caramel and a gentle build of cinnamon, characterize the Sassenach Blended Scotch Whisky. While it tastes like waves of honey and vanilla fudge with raisin, almond, and a hint of cinnamon spice.

However, if you run out of ideas, consider giving a subscription gift to add variety and excitement. Everyone has different tastes, and it can be difficult to single out the perfect gift. Hopefully, this guide helped you find something that your special someone is sure to enjoy.
Best Gifts for People Who Have Everything Buying Guide
-
Lifestyle and Interest
Macie Kreutze, the creator of For The Love Of Simple, the most crucial aspect to consider when purchasing gifts for people with everything is their real interests.
"Knowing unique qualities about a person and what makes them tick is essential in buying them a great gift," she continued. "Think about specific details that make that person unique, such as where they are from, a special trip they remember fondly, a childhood memory, a dream career, or a life goal they're trying to pursue."
“If someone appears to have everything they need - as far as items and products - then I would approach the gift-giving process in an emotional way,” suggests Chris Trembath, Chief Marketing Officer at Dynamic Gift Australia.
“Take a look at their social media channels and see what you can do related to the places they’ve been, the people in their lives, and the things they’ve done,” he continued.
-
Your Relationship
According to Abby Milan of Willinglee, “For someone you don’t know so well, an experience or heartfelt card isn’t likely the right gift.”
How well do you know the person you're buying for? Are they a close friend or a family member? A casual acquaintance or someone you just met? The closer your relationship is, the more personal you can get with your gift.
-
Think About Their Space
Consider the amount of space it will take up when giving a gift. If the person already has everything, you do not want to add clutter or wastefulness to their life. Instead, give a practical and useful gift that doesn't take up much space.
-
Consider Experience Gifts
“I believe the best gifts for people who have everything is something that invokes emotions and will not necessarily add to the piles of things they already have. Something that will create an experience, bringing in inspiration and thoughtfulness,” says Elizabeth Tiglao-Guss, founder of Link of Hearts.
“Dance classes, cooking classes, skydiving, snorkeling, Airbnb adventures, museums, day spas, live music, baseball games, etc. The list is nearly endless, and experiences are such a great way for you to connect with friends and family. The memory of a wonderful experience can often be more meaningful than any traditional gift,” adds Abby Milan.
