Best luxury gifts for men 2024
Montblanc Fragrance Collection
Fragrance is always a good choice for Father's Day gifting and to give your parent something outstanding this year, Montblanc has set the bar high this year with their new luxury perfume range. To celebrate their 100th anniversary of the iconic Meisterstück fountain pen, the brand released four new perfumes, housed in an ink pot-shaped bottle, that reflect their master craftsmanship in writing instruments and leather goods, which make them the perfect gift.
The first look of Black Meisterstück reminds me of an ink bottle, you will smell a bit of burnt incense after spraying it on a few seconds and shortly a warm sense of woody spices and amber come through. To describe this scent in a person, he would be a sophisticated gentleman wearing designer-brand clothes.

Yet the timeless dark notes of patchouli recall the perpetuity of ink on paper. The powerful play of scents can instantly boost one's confidence.
If your giftee enoys a subtle floral notes, Extreme Leather might one to consider. The balance between heavy leather and sweet floral brings us to smoked iris - it smells playful and expensive. The rich leather scent opens up, it leaves a layer of white musk that make you feel like you are on a vacation in Venice.
Vetiver Glacier is nothing you'd imagine, it's nothing icy or minty as you would think. It's actually more down to earth with a tone of cedarwood, spicy ginger and nutmeg. Some say it's an unassumingly safe men's fragrance with added elegance.
