Gifts For Him? Gifts for Boyfriend?

**Looking For Gifts For Him? Gifts For Boyfriend? Or Gifts For Men?**

Just a fortnight ago, I was almost pulling my hair out by the roots. Why, you ask? Well, because my boyfriend’s birthday was around the corner (is in fact tomorrow). If you are anything like me, you too will get this headache twice a year (at least!) – just before his birthday and just before Christmas. What gifts do you get for a man?

Fortunately, I hit upon the solution while trawling the net. “Cologne!” I’ll get him a cologne! So grinning happily to myself, I went in search of colognes… and realised that choosing a cologne from the thousands available is a stumbling block all by itself.

Fortunately, I know my man. He likes strong, masculine scents. So all I had to do was to decide between Aramis cologne, Ralph Lauren’s Safari and Hugo Boss‘ Boss Soul.

If your man likes refreshing scents, like my dad, there are none better than Calvin Klein’s CK One (unisex, so you can borrow it too!), Dolce and Gabanna’s Light Blue and Carolina Herrera’s 212 On Ice (love the bottle encased in a ice cube!).

A girlfriend of mine swears by couple scents. She says ‘the couple who sprays together, stays together” Yeah, I know, har-dee-har-har. But I guess it does make sense in a way bec ause couple scents do have smilar base notes and you do want your man’s scent to echo your own. Ralph Lauren’s Romance, Estee Lauder’s Pleasures and Givenchy’s Very Irresistible all smell divine!

If, unlike me, you have a few dollars to spare, why not indulge your man in luxurious scents? I know my boyfriend would love it if i got him Creed’s Green Irish Tweed (George Clooney uses this too!), Victor and Rolf’s Antidote or Christian Dior’s Fahrenheit.

If you don’t know what your man likes or if you are giving a gift to a new man in your life or even a casual friend, trust me, you will never go wrong with either Guy Laroche’s Drakkar Noir, Boss No. 6 or Calvin Klein’s Eternity.
