Sadly as its a gift payment then all you can do is reach out to the receiver and request that they refund the payment, but sadly you can't force them to do so.
If you funded that paypal payment via a credit card then you could see if they will chargeback for you but again unlikely for the same reason ie a gift payment.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
