The TSNC Men’s Christmas Gift Guide 2020
14 December, 2020
The second of my gift guides is finally here! I’ve put together a selection of lovely products – perfect for dads, boyfriends, husbands and brothers, covering a range of prices, so there should be something suitable for everyone. Enjoy!
An electric toothbrush is always a great idea for a Christmas gift. The Ordo Sonic+ Toothbrush is designed and approved by dentists, and features Sonic Pulse Technology with 40,000 sonic pulses per minute to not only clean the surfaces of the teeth, but also deep between them, keeping your teeth whiter, stronger and healthier. Ordo promises superior plaque removal, removal of surface stains, and improved gum health. You can also customise your brushing experience with a choice of 4 brushing modes – Clean, White, Massage and Sensitive. It’s worth noting that Ordo also offer a full 60 day money back guarantee too, so you’ve got plenty of time to try the brush out, but still get a refund if you’re not happy for any reason.
If you’re looking for a gift set, how about the Dunhill Icon Racing Green Set? Icon Racing is a classic masculine fragrance, woody and aromatic, it’s a versatile and fresh scent that’s easy to wear for most, and a great all-rounder. This gift set includes Dunhill Icon Racing EDP 100ml, Dunhill Icon Racing Shower Gel 90ml, and Dunhill Icon Racing EDP 30ml.
- Top Notes: Grapefruit, Cardamom and Bergamot
- Heart Notes: Orange Blossom, Lavender and Pepper
- Base Notes: Musk, Guaiac Wood and Vetiver
I also have a couple of lovely gift ideas from Engravers Guild – this Personalised Wallet is made with vegetable tanned leather, and can be personalised with gold, silver or blind embossed initials (blind means stamped embossed initials with no colour) This custom wallet is designed to carry both notes and coins, as well as seven credit cards. The wallet also has RFID protection to keep personal data safe, and is presented in a Visconti gift box. I’ve had this one blind embossed APR which are my Dad’s initials. I think he’ll love this for Christmas!
For something really special, how about a Personalised Fragrance? What could be better than receiving a beautiful personalised luxury fragrance for Christmas! Engravers Guild offer a selection of fragrances for men and women, and you can have anything you want engraved onto the back of your chosen bottle (up to nine characters) I’ve had a bottle of Tom Ford Neroli Portofino engraved and I’m so please with how it’s come out!
If you’re not familiar with Neroli Portofino, the fragrance is inspired by the luxury Italian riviera resort town of Portofino, the turquoise glass bottle represents the clear, opaque azure sea, reminiscent of the warm waters of the Mediterranean sea. It’s a beautiful sparkling, bright citrus scent, that’s definitely unisex – this could be a great gift for both men and women. The fragrance opens with top notes of Italian bergamot, yellow mandarin and Sicilian lemon, leading to a floral heart of Tunisian neroli, orange flower and lavender, and a dry down of Amber and Rosemary.
L’Occitane always make the loveliest Christmas gifts, and this year is no exception. They have a large selection of treats available for both men and women, in a range of prices from affordable small gifts, to large luxury sets, and the L’Occitane Men Essentials Set makes for a lovely affordable gift – inside you’ll find a mini Energizing Fluid, Hand Cream and Soap.
I also have a few more fragrance suggestions – Abercrombie & Fitch First Instinct Together for Men is a brilliant option at just £18.99 for 50ml. This is another great all-rounder scent that most people will like. It’s woody and fresh with top notes of grapefruit, cardamom and apple, a heart of lavender and orange tree flowers, and a warm base of cedarwood, sandalwood and musk.
Armani Code for Him EDT would also make a lovely gift. Sensual and sophisticated, this oriental scent combines citrus and woody notes to make a stand out fragrance that’s perfect for both day and night. Armani Code would definitely appeal to someone that likes to dress to impress and make a statement!
- Top notes: Bergamot and Lemon
- Heart notes: Star Anise, Olive Blossom and Guaiac Wood
- Base notes: Leather, Tobacco and Tonka Bean
Or how about the wonderful Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Fragrance Christmas 2020 Edition? Every year Jean Paul Gaultier launches a new limited edition Christmas fragrance for his Le Male and Classique scents, and for 2020, the fragrances are housed in beautiful collectible snow globes – this would be a brilliant gift for fans of Jean Paul Gaultier fragrances!
For the writer, the Parker Sonnet Set is beautifully presented gift set including a ballpoint pen and notebook. The Parker Sonnet ballpoint pen has an ageless, classic appearance, with a brushed stainless steel finish and a palladium plated trim. Also included is a premium tan leatherette notebook with embossed Parker logo detailing, an elastic closure & ribbon page marker. This lovely stylish set would be a wonderful gift for those that enjoy stationary and letter writing.
And lastly, I have a really fantastic premium gift idea that could be perfect for anyone that’s in need of a good night’s sleep. Quieton Earbuds are the world’s smallest active noise cancelling earbuds. They’ve been made specifically for sleep but can be worn in a variety of settings, such as working from home in a noisy environment. Their main feature is a handy button which you can press to activate sound, so you can easily have a conversation with someone without taking them out. They’re also presented in a sturdy chargeable storage case, and the box also include three sizes of tips, so they should fit all ears. These earbuds aren’t cheap by any means, but could definitely be worth the splurge for someone in need of some peace and quiet.
