Something Classic
Although we’re still in a time where beards and mos are prominent, chances are that your Dad is still old school (or timeless) and shaves, daily. A good, quality razor, such as a Dovo Solingen’s Razor and Brush travel kit from Men’s Biz – which comes in a neat leather travel pouch – will last your Dad for years to come, and is a great gift that he will continue to use, weekly.

Something Daily
British perfumer Jo Malone have long been known for their luxurious scents, for both men and women. With a unique collection of unisex colognes, go for for something Dad can wear daily, like Wood Sage & Sea Salt; an iconic scent for the Jo Malone brand. Featuring subtle notes of sage, sea salt and ambrette seeds.
Perfect for every season, and a scent that will develop throughout the day.

Something Nightly
Italian Artisan perfumers Laboratorio Olfattivo craft fine Eau de Parfums in Italy. Opt for something on the ‘intense’ side that is best worn at night, this Father’s Day; perhaps Nerotic, with dynamic top notes that mingle with the dry and masculine notes of woods, leather and smoke and with the more feminine notes of amber.

With all of these in mind, get out and enjoy the day with your old man.
