Celebrate the active Dad with this unmistakably masculine scent that features an invigorating and energising composition of citrus top notes such as Grapefruit, Yuzu zest and Pink Peppercorn. The fragrance finishes with earthy and balsamic smelling Cardamom and Vetyver notes which give masculinity to Boss Bottled Sport.

Burberry Brit Summer for Men

Great for Singapore’s humid weather, this fresh scent which was inspired by Summertime in Britain boasts top notes of fresh Lime, Cardamom, Green Mandarin as well as Ginger. Coupled with warm Cedarwood and Oriental woods, this Summer scent is ideal for the outdoorsy Dad who loves spending afternoons at the beach.

Dior Homme Sport

The new Dior Homme Sport is a reformulation of its 2008 predecessor. Seemingly lighter, the masculine scent which still holds onto its floral touch begins with accords of Ginger and Sicilian citron with heart notes of Tuscany Iris and base notes of Cedar wood. Although the fragrance has a floral touch, it doesn’t sacrifice masculinity making this the perfect fragrance for the confident, sophisticated Dad to go from day to night.

Dolce Gabbana Light Blue Living Stromboli

For the laid-back Dad, this watery-fresh scent with a hint of woody Patchouli is perfect. Inspired by the Mediterranean lifestyle of sailing, swimming, sunbathing, eating, drinking and love, this watery-fresh scent brings to mind a relaxing Summer voyage with no worries in the world.

Dolce Gabbana The One Sport

Designed for the active sportsmen, this fresh, clean scent opens with Rosemary and develops to reveal a more mature woody scent with Patchouli and musk forming the base notes. A bottle of Dolce & Gabbana’s The One Sport would make a perfect gift for the marathon-running Dad.

Korres Fragrance for Men

Though this is Korres’ first ever fragrance for men, it offers a timeless masculine scent which does not overpower the senses. This woody fragrance which is balanced with oriental notes is infused with top notes of Bergamot and Cinnamon; middle notes of Saffron and Sandalwood; as well as base notes of Amber and Vanilla. We recommend this for the executive Dad who is often entertaining clients or toiling away at their office desk.

YSL L’Homme Libre

A woody and spicy fragrance containing a mix of Bergamot, Pink Pepper and Leather Accord, YSL L’Homme Libre is a strong fragrance with a light dry-down. Finishing off with a masculine combination of Vetiver and Leather Accord, this scent is great for the swanky Dad who always stays sharply dressed.

Z Zegna Eau de Toilette

Z Zegna has a fruity opening which dries down to a woody base. Featuring scent notes of Castor Fruit, Nutmeg and Cashmere Wood, this recently re-launched fragrance is light with a nice longevity which is great for a conservative Dad’s relaxing day out.
