Scents for Fathers, Because He Doesn’t Need Another Mug

Scents for Fathers, Because He Doesn’t Need Another Mug

Be it a dad, stepdad, father figure or even for yourself, Father’s Day is a time to acknowledge ‘him’. No matter the role he’s played, he’s probably largely responsible for the person you are today and that’s something worth saying thank you for, right?



The gift of fragrance is multi-faceted. It’s a special kind of joy when someone discovers a new scent, and often fragrance as a gift is the perfect starter to set that person off down the path of perfume. When you smell good, you feel good, and that’s the concept you’re giving. Not to mention there’s the capacity for him to receive compliments from others too, and who doesn’t like those? Cleanliness and smelling clean is such an important part of our modern-day lifestyle, and for someone else to notice only levels up the feel-good associated with your Father’s Day gift

So, ditch the ‘Best Dad’ mug idea and grab those favourite child points with both hands. We’ve got fragrances and we’ve got gifts, but most importantly, there’s something in our carefully curated range to suit every kind of father figure.

Genetic Bliss, 27 87 Perfumes – Speaking to the essence of who he is, this molecular perfume will mould with his natural scent to create something entirely his, and his alone. The woody notes at the base give longevity too, so it will stick around, leaving more room for compliments. What better way to celebrate his individuality as your father figure? Available in a 2ml tester or 27ml and 87ml bottles

Sicilian Wood Body Lotion, Tom Daxon – A rich fragrance with long lasting moisturisation, this is a great shout if you don’t want to commit to a full fragrance right off the bat. Think citrus grove warming in the sun. Plus, Dads enjoy a little self-care pampering every now and again too. Available in 250ml

St Vetyver, D.S. & Durga – This brand is all about armchair travelling. Give him a fragrance that takes him somewhere else, somewhere warm and tropical. This one is inspired by the scents and images of the Caribbean. A soft cologne, it’s an absolute delight. Available in 50 or 100ml

Aftershave Balm, Eight & Bob – Grooming is important, and shaving can be harsh on the skin. He’ll love smoothing this soothing balm onto his chin after a shave. The ingredients have been specially formulated to penetrate the skin deeply too, making hydration and soft touch a certainty. Available in 100ml

Red Santal, Abel – The brand has stopped making this one so it’s limited edition, just like him. This eco-friendly scent is a spicy and woody concoction made from 100% natural ingredients, and 1% of each bottle sold is donated to a charity. Caring for the planet = double favourite child points. Available in a 1.5ml tester, or 15 and 50ml bottles

Auto Fragrance Set, D.S. & Durga – For something a big different, we’ve thrown this set of fragranced car fresheners into the mix. It’s a gift he would never expect, but one he’ll be really pleased with when he slides into the driver’s seat and gets a whiff. Plus, it’ll last a while because there’s 5 of them!
