Fathers are the first friends for their children, and forever heroes in their eyes. For your fathers, or the father to your children, Father’s Day can serve as a special day where you show your appreciation to them for being the hands-on co-parent. With Father’s Day just around the corner, have you thought of how you are celebrating this year? Although celebrations are muted due to the raging Covid-19 pandemic, it should not take away the cheer off this Father’s Day.
Here are some of The Review Collective’s gift ideas for the father figures in your life!

BLEU DE CHANEL
As a hero to their children, fathers can often make things right again when you’re down by simply wrapping their arms around you.

An ode to masculinity, this timeless fragrance unites an aromatic-woody scent with a citrus-y note. Serving its olfactory function, the power of this scent can wrap its invisible arms around you and evoke all the beautiful moments you share with your dad, even years down the road. Every day can feel like Father’s Day with this lingering scent.

DIOR SAUVAGE
If you’re going for a more understated yet manly scent, Dior Sauvage might be your pick. With a top note of bergamot, this cologne has a woody undertone, leaving you with a whiff that is not overpowering.

AESOP MOROCCAN NEROLI SHAVING SERUM

If you agree, and would like the men in your life to pamper themselves, look no further than the Aesop Moroccan Neroli Shaving Serum. An after shave that oozes botanical goodness, it not only smells good, but is also gentle on skin that has just been ravaged by the razor.

GOPRO HERO5
Mount and capture. That’s all you have to do with GoPro Hero5 to capture all your precious family moments. With its “unshakeable” feature, blurry shots will be the last worry on your mind. Whether you are neck-deep in the ocean, gliding through the skies, or hiking in a rainforest, your father will treasure the GoPro Hero5 as a charming accessory to document family moments.
Member review:
“I have been using this camera for more than a year now and it had proved it’s worth! For me it is the best specially when you love to travel as it have a lot of accessories you can use like just strapping it on your chest or maybe putting it at the strap of your bag so you won’t get the hassle to hold it while filming travel vlogs. It is also small that’s why it is more handy and easy to carry around anywhere, even for girls who likes to bring only smaller bags can take this with them. Very great as always from GoPro! Perfect 100%” – @APRIL08
SONOS ROAM PORTABLE SMART SPEAKER
A Bluetooth speaker that is ahead of its time, the Sonos Roam is packed full with goodness. Small and compact, the Sonos Roam has a size-defying sound that promises the “clarity, depth and fullness that you would expect from a much larger speaker”. The beauty of its sound system? That it has an automatic TrueplayTM system that adapts to its surroundings, producing perfectly balanced sounds at any given space and time. What sets it apart from its competitors in the market, is that it has a robust durability, and is able to withstand drops up to 3 feet and is also weather resistant. The Sonos Roam is truly a rugged companion for your next family adventure!

The Airpods Pro is a gift that we guarantee will be welcomed with open arms. Maybe your father has been eyeing the Airpods for a while now, but could not justify splurging on it. Well, luckily for him, he might just be the new proud owner of the Airpods.
Handy and compact, the Airpods Pro could be one of your father’s essentials – to accompany him on runs, to attend Zoom meetings on-the-go or simply a companion for him on his commute.
