Father’s Day is around the corner. If fragrance is his thing, consider this your starting point
For the fathers who appreciate a good scent or fragrance, this gift guide rounds up some worthwhile options.
Penhaligon’s Ritual of Endymion Gift Set
This gift arrives ready to give, housed in a box containing everything Dad needs for a sensorial start to the day. Curated for Father’s Day, the Ritual of Endymion Gift Set places the beloved masculine fragrance centre stage, accompanied by a razor and shaving cream infused with the same distinctive scent. Fresh notes of citrus, spices, and lavender are lifted by a bright touch of bergamot before giving way to suede, coffee, and geranium for a characterful finish.
A Penhaligon’s insignia tube key is included, serving as a practical accessory for squeezing every last drop from the shaving cream—and a keepsake long after the tube is empty.
Byredo Gifting Selection
Likewise, at Byredo you’ll find a curated range of fragrances and scented toiletries your dad might fancy. A personal favourite, Mixed Emotions—like its moniker suggests—evokes a lot of emotions. But one thing’s for sure: it’ll be a mainstay in anyone’s fragrance collection (including your dad’s). It opens with the warmth of maté and the sharp sweetness of cassis, balanced by the grounding presence of black tea. At its heart, violet leaf adds a disruptive edge, lending depth and complexity, while a base of soft woods anchors the composition with understated strength.
For an extra touch, Byredo’s gifting selection also includes the Kantha Perfume Holder, a handcrafted accessory that dresses the bottle with pizzazz and makes carrying—and spritzing—your fragrance on the go feel all the more chic.
Le Labo Santal 33 & Santal 26 Set
For the wardrobe and the home, this set includes an eau de parfum and candle in Le Labo’s interpretation of sandalwood. In the 50ml eau de parfum, the olfactory profile blends cardamom with iris and violet, which adds a subtle tension to the composition. Layered over a smoky wood accord of Australian sandalwood and cedarwood are spicy, leathery, and musky nuances, giving the fragrance its signature addictive warmth. While conceived for home ambience, the Santal 26 candle carries a similarly enveloping scent, though softer, creamier, and more vanilla-forward.
If your dad also appreciates aesthetic spaces, this set effortlessly kills two birds with one stone.
Maison Crivelli Oud Trilogy
Maison Crivelli has no misses; in my view, every fragrance deserves a gold star—and that’s coming from a fairly picky fragrance consumer. With the Oud Trilogy set, your dad is in for a real treat: three standout compositions—Oud Maracujá, Oud Stallion, and Oud Cadenza.
Maison Crivelli’s Oud Cadenza delivers exceptional longevity and projection (a hallmark of the brand), blending the richness of toasted cane sugar with candied dates and the depth of oud. Oud Stallion takes a different direction, pairing vibrant fresh spices with smoky leather and a powerful oud base. And finally, the bestseller Oud Maracujá brings a striking contrast of juicy passion fruit against the tropical warmth and resinous intensity of oud.
