What do you give the man who’s shaped your world, often without asking for anything in return? In a market flooded with gadgets and socks, fragrance still holds its place as the most personal and powerful gift.
Fragrance is memory. It's identity. It’s the unseen signature that reminds us of who we are, and how others see us.
“Scent is one of the most powerful, invisible ways to express identity,” says Craig Sydenham, from Alfa Romeo and Tonino Lamborghini Prestigio Fragrances. “It’s a gift that tells someone: I notice you; I admire you, and I’ve chosen this for you.
”While other gifts may fade or break, fragrance lingers, on skin, in memory, and in moments that matter. It allows you to reflect who your father figure is to you.
Below, Sydenham shares some scent-forward picks that match a range of fatherly personalities, from the spontaneous adventurer to the quietly stylish.
For the grounded, open-road dad – Alfa Romeo Green EDT is fresh, confident and perfectly balanced. Apple, citrus and bergamot open into clove, mahogany and geranium, finishing with a warm trail of sandalwood and vetiver. It’s inspired by nature but made for every day
Best for: The dad who prefers real moments to big gestures, and who always knows the scenic route.
For the bold, big-hearted dad – Alfa Romeo Red EDT is energetic and effortlessly magnetic. Zesty pineapple and pink pepper meet amber and tonka bean in a scent that’s modern, masculine, and undeniably charming.
Best for: The dad who knows how to make a room light up, and who’s never forgotten a birthday.
For the introspective adventurer – Alfa Romeo Blue EDT brings marine freshness and earthy confidence together in one bottle. Aromatic fougère meets patchouli and dry woods, creating a clean but commanding signature
Best for: The dad who says less but does more, who teaches by example and who carries the calm.
For the dad with impeccable taste and timeless style – Tonino Lamborghini Prestigio EDT is for the refined man who enjoys standing out without shouting. Inspired by the Italian spirit of design and performance, this fragrance opens with sparkling lemon, grapefruit and elemi. A bold black rose and nutmeg heart follows, grounded by dark woods, oud, and a rich alcantara accord, mirroring the power, elegance and control of a classic supercar.
