A star map
A framed sky from a night that matters to you, with a short line underneath. Order a week ahead. Around $25-60.
A Dior fragrance
Dior J’adore or Miss Dior, only if you know it is her scent. Around $90-180.
An experience day
A hot-air balloon ride, a pottery workshop or an escape room, booked for a date you pick together. Around $50-250.
An instant camera
A Fujifilm Instax Mini or Polaroid Now for photos she can hold. Around $70-110.

Codenames, Exploding Kittens or Ticket to Ride, for a game night. Around $20-50.

A soft scarf
A wool or cashmere scarf in a colour from her wardrobe. Around $30-120.
Open-when letters
A stack of envelopes, each labelled for a moment: open when you miss me, when you need a laugh, when you cannot sleep. It costs little.
Notes hidden around the house
Small notes tucked into a coat, a book and the fridge. It costs nothing.
A phone-free day
A day with no screens, planned in advance. It costs nothing.
Shopping for your girlfriend in Tokyo
In Tokyo, gift shoppers head to Shibuya, Harajuku, Ginza and the food floors of the big department stores in Shinjuku.
Trains reach everything and department stores gift-wrap beautifully, but rush-hour trains are crowded, so shop mid-morning or mid-afternoon.
Buying for your girlfriend
Gifts for a girlfriend work when they show you listen. Notice what she mentions in passing and pick up on one of those details.
Avoid anything that implies a milestone you have not talked about.
If you want to give it today
Flowers, table bookings and a personalized game can be arranged online the same day. An oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment, and it needs no occasion: a gift on an ordinary day tends to be remembered longer.
There is no deadline, which lets you order things that take a week to arrive. Pair a quick digital gift with something that needs shipping.
A gift that does not depend on Tokyo
Shops in Tokyo cannot sell this one: a pixel game with her as the hero, two letters from you and a quiz about your story. It is emailed, usually within an hour. The final level is set in Almaty today, with New York and Tokyo coming soon.
Where can I get a last-minute gift for my girlfriend in Tokyo?
Browse Shibuya, Harajuku, Ginza and the food floors of the big department stores in Shinjuku, or order something that arrives the same day: flowers, table bookings and a personalized game. Trains reach everything and department stores gift-wrap beautifully, but rush-hour trains are crowded, so shop mid-morning or mid-afternoon.
Can I send my girlfriend in Tokyo a digital gift?
Yes. A digital gift reaches her instantly wherever she is. An oin game is generated automatically and emailed to you, usually within an hour, as a private link that works in any browser; flowers are an even quicker option.
Does oin have a final level set in Tokyo?
Not yet. A final level in Tokyo is coming soon; today the final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
