My mother-in-law keeps giving me scented candles for my birthday. I’m happy to receive them because it’s one less thing she has to worry about - what do I want for my birthday? Scented candles.
They all end up in the charity shops but she doesn’t need to know that. :)
They are consumables so you can just say you used the up if anyone asks.
As a person who is difficult to buy for (not because I want special things but because I don’t really want anything), candles are ideal as I either like them and use them, or can say I did. Much better that something I am expected to wear or constantly display in my home.
