As well as celebrating fatherhood, Father’s Day is a celebration paying tribute to fathers. The day, which also underscores the influence father’s have in society and the strong parental bonds they hold, naturally comes with gift giving.
And you can’t get more iconic than a fragrance as a gift choice. While it’s tempting to go the easy route and present him another bottle of the same cologne he’s been wearing for years, it’s the perfect opportunity to introduce him to something new. However, not all dads are the same and it can be tricky buying scents as they are so personal. The important thing is to pick up something that really speaks to him. Whether he’s into sailing, cars, James Bond, reading books or is a sporty fellow, think about his hobbies and when he’s at his happiest and choose a cologne that matches that vibe. Another tip is to investigate the fragrance he already wears and then choose something that incorporates similar notes.
Whether he loves a fresh scent with lively citrus notes or something built around a structure of fougère, among the most prevalent family in masculine fragrance, we have picked out the newest options. Naturally we included one for the dad who loves audacious oriental woody fragrances with oud (agarwood) as the star ingredient, the perfect celebration of an Arab man. There’s also a scent for the father who is proud of his heritage with an exclusively designed bottle portraying the tapestry of tradition.
