Fragrance gifts

Perfume is often considered the best gift you can buy as it can be very sentimental; scent is closely linked to your memory which triggers emotion. Therefore, fragrance is a great gift to people who are special to us, such as your parents, son, daughter or partner. These are our perfume gift picks for 2022:

2.1

No.88 Eau de Parfum 100ml

Without a doubt, No.88 fragrance is our most popular gift each Christmas. The scent is a sophisticated blend of bergamot, geranium, rose otto and frangipani, with dry base notes of vetiver and sandalwood, which add complex woody layers that linger enticingly on the skin. It is particularly popular with men, but does hold a strong following with women who prefer richer, woody smells. This is a gift you can’t go wrong with.

Frankincense & Myrrh Cologne 100ml

Although our Frankincense & Myrrh fragrance is popular all year round, its mysterious and spicy scent is particularly suited to the festive season, making it a very special gift for those who enjoy the aromas of Christmas. The perfume is a rich blend of warm frankincense, sharp myrrh and woody rich base notes of Cedarwood and Sandalwood, topped with fresh scents of orange, lemon and basil.

Leather Gifts:

Our selection of leather goods offer superb, high-end gift options for the men in your life. Dads, grandpa’s and brothers are notoriously difficult to buy for, but if you opt for functionality, quality and classic design, they should appreciate the craftsmanship and use.

5.1

Triple Card Holder Red Leather

We have no doubt that your dad’s wallet is looking a little tatty. Give him a needed upgrade with the Triple Card Holder. A wallet with coin compartments is becoming less and less necessary with increasing vendors becoming cashless, therefore a slim cardholder is all he needs. Our design has sophisticated round lines on the pocket edges for better grip of the card’s corners. We recommend that you gift our card holder in brilliant red, to make a change from classic black.

A nice detail is the distinctive silver tap shaped fasteners in reference to our luxurious bathing ethos.
