TABAC SAHARA, GUERLAIN PARIS

Tabac Sahara, the newest Guerlain Paris, is inspired by the warmth and depth of desert landscapes and blends tobacco's golden nuances with the notes of pink raspberry. What you get is an ambery woody fragrance that's just the right amount of intense and charismatic.

NAVY PRINTED SCARF, RALPH LAUREN FROM THE COLLECTIVE

This Ralph Lauren scarf plays with contrast and confidence, pairing a deep navy base with gleaming gold geometric motifs that nod to classic motoring codes. Structured yet effortless, it slips easily from sharp tailoring to off-duty layers, adding just enough polish, intrigue and charisma to carry you through long, lingering evenings.

CLASSIC CHECK-IN, RIMOWA

There are suitcases, and then there is the RIMOWA Classic. The Classic Check-In is built on decades of precision engineering—anodised aluminium shell, leather handles and the signature Multi-wheel system forming a silhouette that has become shorthand for luxury travel. Forget about following trends, because this one never had to.

BLUE COTTON TWILL COAT WITH FLORAL EMBROIDERY, DIOR

A poetic nod to heritage, this blue cotton twill coat from Dior celebrates the House’s savoir-faire and Monsieur Dior’s enduring love of florals. Opulent allover embroidery sharpens the silhouette, while pleating at the back softens the structure. Polished yet poetic, it brings in a level of ease to craftsmanship led dressing.

PROSPEX MARINEMASTER 1968 HERITAGE DIVER’S WATCH – JAMSTEC COLLABORATION, SEIKO

This modern take on a classic Seiko diver’s watch features a textured dial inspired by the trail created by icebreakers advancing through Arctic sea ice, symbolising the pursuit of discovery and scientific progress. The JAMSTEC collaboration is limited to 1,000 pieces.

PALAZZO SLIPPER, BOTTEGA VENETA

This Bottega Veneta open back slipper is realised in buttery soft nappa leather with the house's iconic Intrecciato weave. Finished in Alpi green with a leather sole, it is Italian craftsmanship at its finest.

LEATHER BIKER JACKET WITH WEB DETAIL, GUCCI

Gucci revisits biker classics with the Primavera collection, finishing this jacket in softened calf leather with deliberate creasing and a subtly distressed grain. Leather Web detailing along the sleeves adds a familiar yet distinctive feel.

DIAMOND POINT FOUNTAIN PEN, TIFFANY & CO.

This Tiffany & Co. fountain pen from the Diamond Point collection channels a modern, architectural edge through textured sterling silver and a striking black onyx cabochon. Finished with an 18k gold fine nib, it brings a considered sense of luxury to the everyday ritual of writing.

NARROW RECTANGULAR SUNGLASSES, SAINT LAURENT

Saint Laurent pares eyewear down to its sharpest form with this narrow rectangular frame. Crafted in metal with subtly bent end pieces, the design trades excess for precision. A sleek finishing touch that proves how less really does say more.

EVASION 2 BEACH MAT, HERMÈS

Summer, seen through a very chic rear-view mirror. This printed terry beach mat from Hermès, designed by Loïc Dubigeon, turns downtime into design. Woven in Germany and screen-printed in France, it is playful, graphic and unapologetically luxe, proof that even your beach essentials deserve good taste.
