Say thank you to the man who’s been on your team from the start with Stetson Original! Since 1982, Stetson cologne has exemplified a proud heritage of strength and masculinity.  A chypre woody fragrance, the scent opens with a blend of zest lemon and bergamot, enveloped in a dewy citrus.

Next, a spicy, earthy blend of black pepper and saffron is lifted by the floral-fruity aroma of pomarose. At the base, warm and notes of cedarwood, roasted tonka and suede add a suave refinement. ($24, drugstores).




For an exciting twist, GUESS Night features notes of hot pepper, grapefruit and cedar wood to create a masculine, woody scent full of adrenaline and adventure. Wear it for an instant boost of confidence that owns the night ($65; Mass retailers).

These limited-edition Father’s Day hats not only keep dad cool while working out and spending time outdoors, but also feature different sayings to fit your dad’s personality. Let him know he’s your No. 1 with the latest innovation in performance technology, made from a proprietary performance fabric that cools to approximately 30 degrees below the average body temperature in under a minute when soaked with water or sweat, wrung out and then snapped in the air to activate the cooling properties. The high-performance light-weight multi-yarn fiber absorbs and retains moisture into its fabric core, circulating the molecules while regulating the rate of evaporation to ensure an instant and prolonged “air conditioner” effect to cool your head while you exercise, garden, do yard work, grill, watch sporting events, and more. The fiber simultaneously wicks moisture away from the body so the fabric feels cool against the skin, not wet. The cooling technology lasts up to two hours before needing to be re-activated and each of the machine-washable and chemical-free hats will continue to perform for as long as Dad needs it. Added bonus – Ultra Violet Protection Factor (UPF 50) provides sun protection when covering the skin, making it the perfect outdoors summer essential to stay cool and protected.

Price: $22.99 each, Available in both Lifestyle and Performance options in White/Black & Black/High Vis Green at www.missionathletecare.com

If you're looking for any last minute Father's Day gift guide items, I have a great affordable option for you!  British Sterling mens cologne, a favorite from the 70's (over 50 million sold!), is making a new comeback with two fantastic blends - H.I.M. Reserve and H.I.M. Private Stock. I had seen them at my local CVS and they looked beautiful in person as they deliver a nice presentation as well as scent!

At a pricepoint of $24.99, it makes for a fantastic (and affordable) gift for Dads this Father's Day. 

A bit more about the company:
  • British Sterling H.I.M. ‘Reserve’ -- a provocative oriental blend of fresh citruses, bold spices and sensual woods 
  • British Sterling H.I.M. ‘Private Stock’ -- which showcases fresh citruses  combined with crisp woods, aromatic spices and rich undertones
The two are launching with support from newly appointed spokesperson Brooke Sterling, the fragrance's spokesperson, who is teaching men how to make #SterlingChoices in her first "instructional" video here.
