Deodorant Sets: The running joke about receiving a Lynx Africa set from every female relative is told each year but this is unfair. We get given them because of how versatile they are as a gift. There is always a need for deodorant and bath sets, if nothing else it saves us having to buy them ourselves for a few more months.
Aftershave: This is an easy one. If it is given to you by a girl, it is clear she likes the smell of it. Wear it, and there is a strong possibility she will like you.
Clothes: Despite our active and obvious protests about going shopping or our blatant disregard for caring about what the fashion world says is “in” right now, we love having new clothes. There are two angles someone can approach this from.
Firstly, if you are a significant other this is your chance to get us wearing that top we wouldn’t dream of buying ourselves. Within reason we will wear anything if it is coming from a special someone, so there is a strong chance we will welcome the new style with open arms.
If you are buying for a father, son, brother, or boyfriend just look for inspiration in whatever clothes they already wear. If there is one thing a man likes more than being bought new and exciting styles, it’s being bought something he already wears. We are creatures of habit, there’s no such thing as too many pairs of dark jeans.
Stocking Fillers: It is Christmas week, and somehow you forgot you had to buy for your brother. There are a couple of quick and easy things you can buy that won’t break the bank. Socks, underwear, hats, scarfs and slippers are things you cannot go wrong with. Bonus points for ties that play “Jingle Bells”.
