A new obsession of mine and cracking accessory for the colder months, it’s both a practical and fashionable gift.
A simple yet effective present, every guy needs a smart watch that works with a suit and I’ve always loved watches with a leather strap for those smarter occasions.
The ultimate accessory for someone that does a fair bit of jet setting! Speaking as someone that travels a lot for work, the passport protector comes in particularly handy.
One of my favourite new products of 2019, I’ve found myself using this bag an enormous amount! Ideal for weekend getaways, short business trips and city breaks, it lies fully flat much like a suitcase, so is dead easy to use and to pack!
Every modern day gent needs a trusty backpack and I’ve always preferred a leather bag, it will compliment all manner or outfits and ultimately it will stand the test of time. This particular backpack from Radley is perfect for those that commute, with a laptop section and comfy padded straps, it’s a fantastic gift to treat that special someone!
In my opinion you can’t really go far wrong with a trusty fragrance this Christmas, but look for one thats truly special. I’ve always adored Jo Malone and a particular favourite of mine for the colder month is Oud & Bergamot, beautifully punchy and powerful.
Another gift on this list that I’ve become fairly obsessed with this year! A more sustainable and affordable (long term!) alternative to reed diffusers or candles, the Wellbeing POD from NEOM is essentially a luxury oil diffuser that looks fantastic and is ideal if you have trouble sleeping, have pets (although avoid certain oils that pets can be allergic too*) or just love your home. A few drops of essential oil with tap water (!) and you and your loved one will be feeling Zen in no time!
Because every guy loves a gadget… and this ones bloody practical. Philips HUE is a truly fantastic product, essentially lightbulbs on steroids. Dead straightforward to set up, you can set your light bulbs on a timer to replace your alarm and wake you up gradually with a gentle warming glow much like natural sunlight. They are also great for setting the mood for an evening sat watching a film or dinner with friends.
Quite simply an essential if you live in the UK! Most guys have an umbrella, but few have one this sexy and stand out and the craftsmanship of London Undercover is second to none!
Elemis is one of my favourite grooming brands and this ‘On The Go’ set is the ideal way to introduce that special guy to both the brand and to a proper grooming routine! It includes a couple of my firm faves and the products are the ideal size for that gym or rugby wash bag!
Another fragrance, but this ones rather special. Sandalo by Acqua Di Parma is a scent I discovered earlier this year and instantly fell in love. It’s unlike any other fragrance I’ve come across and thus ideal for that guy who wants to stand out from the crowd and be a little different.
The whole premise of giving a gift at Christmas is it should be special and something that person is unlikely to treat themselves to. These cashmere lined leather gloves from N.Peal are exactly that, luxurious, special and a beautiful present.
