This Parisian candle maker has gained lots of popularity in

decorative element. If you pick the right one, they'll also add a
nice scent to a room.

Ann Demeulemeester
Made out of silver, this pin by Ann Demeulemeester is
reminiscent of a vintage safety pin. The chain pieces and pendant
hanging from the end are also silver. A beautiful accessory that'll
look particularly good on knitwear.

Comme Des Garcons
The CDG perfumes can be very hit or miss with some having great
discreet scents and others being rather in your face. The Odeur 53,
however has a fairly classic, down to earth scent, and thus with the
neat packaging makes a very nice gift.
£65, Dover Street Market |

accessories, including this scarf with mittens at the ends. Fun and
useful, a solid gift idea.

Black Sheep And Prodigal Sons
The hand made Mammoth Razor is made of a mammoth ivory and
sterling sheath, a masterfully restored vintage blade and a quartz
Stanhope lens. Produced in a limited amount of 50, this razor comes
with a hefty pricetag but is one of the finest pieces of grooming
equipment available, and probably the most epic of gifts.

Robert Geller
Aside from socks and books, you can't get a
much more classic gift than a tie. This classic slim one from Robert
Geller, however, is available in three clean and traditional
colours, which certainly increase the chances of it seeing the light
of day unlike the salmon coloured one last year...
$129, Blackbird |
