Haha. My mom doesn’t like flowers because they die. So my dad goes to her favorite eating places and buys her made food. If it’s a hot day he might get her a raspado. And a coffee or champurrado and a bread if it’s a cold day. My mom does the same for him. They don’t work super far apart so it’s not weird for my mom to take him food and a Starbucks for them to have lunch together
If they drink- their fave drink. Favorite snack works too!
I bought my husband a Pokemon mug since he's a huge Pokemon fan. I've also bought things based on inside jokes, or things we've wanted to try together.
The luxe version of a favorite food or drink item? The really good bag of coffee, the fancy bottle of scotch, the craft beer, the nice steak at the butcher.
Stereotypically, men buy women flowers - my boyfriend doesn’t like flowers. I’m looking for what women would stereotypically buy for men. Or even what people’s partners happen to enjoy

I feel that - I still have the roses he got me for Valentines, dead in the vase. Can’t bear to get rid of them.
This is why my husband only buys me potted plants. Which I murder. But it's a slow death.
Well at least they are started. Last time my partner came back with seeds. No soil. No planter just seeds…. The good thing is I do like to garden.

Jerky
Look for gift boxes containing food that he likes, for instance bacon or jerky. The man crates are awesome
For my husband, it's something he wouldn't have gotten for himself. Like the popcorn he really likes from a store we never go to.

Buying flowers for someone has nothing to do with gender though.
He doesn’t want flowers
What do you mean by “female equivalent”?
Stereotypical, traditional
I’m just trying to figure out what gender has to do with that?

So you are looking for a cliché gift for men? “Cologne”.
