Father’s day is just around the corner, and once again it’s time to find that perfect gift to show Dad just how much you care. Luckily, finding that gift is made easier this year with the introduction of two new unique fragrances from the classic and always high-quality brands: Hugo Boss and Lacoste.

With a fresh, modern, masculine scent HUGO Element is perfect for the dad ready to disconnect from the stresses of everyday life, and much like the face of the fragrance, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, a “born urbanite”. With a subtle blend of classic and modern ingredients, LACOSTE Challenge is an invigorating new fragrance just right for the confident, youthful, and sporty dad that epitomizes a man of flair, grace, and relaxed elegance, like that of the face of the fragrance, actor Hayden Christensen.

HUGO Element is inspired by the energy of the four elements of nature: earth, water, fire, and air. The top note ingredients are led by the famous, synthetic material, calone, which represents the water element. The heart note ingredients are driven by the fresh spicy notes of ginger and coriander leaf, representing the fire element. Lastly, the base note ingredients are powered by woody notes, particularly cedarwood, which represents the earth element.

Eau de Toilette 2.0 fl. oz. $49.50
Eau de Toilette 3.0 fl. oz $65.00

LACOSTE Challenge subtly blends classic and modern ingredients, creating the unique olfactory structure of the scent which serves as a sophisticated metaphor for the distinctive style of play for which Rene Lacoste was renowned. The top note opens the fragrance strongly with fresh and energetic notes of tangerine and lemon, augmented by a burst of aromatic lavender. The middle accord is driven by spices such as ginger, bringing an exotic kick to the fragrance. Lastly, the base note combines rosewood, teak, and ebony to create a sustained strength, giving the fragrance its solid foundation.
