A scented candle? Absolutely not. She deserves a gift that gets her.

Questions
What's a good funny gift for a coworker who swears?
A sweary coloring book or quote book. It's personal, it's funny, and it won't get anyone sent to HR.
Is a swear word gift okay for work?
Use your judgment. These are best for the coworker you know has the potty mouth. For the rest of the office, stick to the planner (still sweary inside) or a mug.
What wins the white elephant swap?
The gift that gets stolen. Buyers tell us that's often a sweary coloring book.
