#NauticaforDad #CollectiveBias
As Father's Day approaches now would be best time to begin shopping for that special man in your life. Whether that man be your dad, grandfather, husband, brother, uncle, cousin or your best friend, the last thing you want to happen is not showing him just how much he means to you.
They do so much for us, the easiest way to show them deep appreciation is to get them a gift fitted for their personality.
Let's take my husband for example.
He is the most kind-hearted man I've ever known. We've been married for the past five years - which to most people, it doesn't sound like a long time, but in all honesty, it feels as if we have been together for a lifetime.
Not only is he the best provider for our family, he is the type of person who will give you his last. If you ever need anything and he has it, he will hand it over without hesitation. It was his caring nature and soft spoken soul that drew me to him practically immediately after we first met.
Along with his good natured personality, he also has many hidden skills: a mechanic, bookworm, tech geek, tailor, and music aficionado.
You would think that shopping for him is impossible, but in all reality is it quite the opposite.
One of his favorite things to have, other than a wind up wrist watch, is cologne. My husband loves his fragrances. Knowing this, I took a drive out to Macy's to get him the perfect Father's Day gift set.
After spending a few minutes walking around the Men's Fragrance counters, I came across the Nautica Life Gift Set nicely displayed as seen in this photo.
This fragrance set has four products that any man who loves to smell good would need: (1) 3.4 oz Eau de Toilette Spray, (1) 1 oz Eau de Toilette Spray, (1) 2.5 oz After Shave Balm and (1) 2.5 oz Shower Gel.
As you can see in the photo, this fragrance gift set is sleek - the spray bottles are decorated with a rope sprayer inside , gold caps and the elegant Nautica logo on the top.
The Nautica Life fragrance has a blend of masculine notes, among those are Natural Sage, Provence Lavender and Natural Violet Leaf, that lends this fragrance to smell romantic and enticing.
To get your #NauticaforDad gift set like this one, just visit Macy's site HERE.
Hopefully this #NauticaforDad post has helped inspire you with gift ideas for this upcoming Father's Day.

Now that you've entered the giveaway and I've shared who I'm celebrating this Father's Day, tell me this: who is the anchor in your life?
Spring may have arrived weeks ago, but around these parts (Columbus, Ohio to be exact) it seems as if the season is just getting started. The temps have finally remained above 65-70 degrees, the sun has been beaming brightly almost every day and most flowers are practically in full bloom.
Just as the seasons slowly change, so do our wardrobes and fragrances.
During the Spring, the first types of scents that I tend to gravitate to are all those with floral notes like rose, lilac, and jasmine. In my opinion, floral fragrances are the best way of capturing a tiny piece of spring in a bottle.
If you're like me, someone who really enjoys floral scents that not only smell good when sprayed from the bottle; but that smell beautifully on the skin, I know you'll want to give these perfumes a try.
The Prettiest Spring Scents
1. Salvatore Ferragamo Emozione - fresh + sexy are the best words to describe this combination of notes: peach, iris, peony, rose and musk.
Bloomingdales has the single 1.7oz bottle, or a spring gift set including shower gel and body lotion
2. Gardénia de Robert Piguet - sultry + flowery. As the name states, this scent is all about the soft gardenia flower with a touch of Madagascar Vanilla (among a few other notes).
Neiman Marcus currently has the single 3.4oz bottle
3. BOSS Ma Vie Pour Femme - ultra feminine: notes of freesia combined with rose and cactus blossoms.
The single 1.7oz bottle is available online at hugoboss.com
4. Vera Wang Forever Vera - lovely notes of lilac and coconut water create an intoxicating fragrance.
Order the 1.7oz bottle on Amazon.
5. Flower Fragrance in Radiant - the concoction of peony notes transforms this into the ideal scent for anyone who wishes to be sparkly + flirty.
There is a 1oz. single bottle ; 0.5oz single bottle or a three piece gift set that includes shower gel and lotion.
6. Coty Love2Love Fragrances - I recently shared an article about these new fragrances for this past Mother's Day, HERE.

Can you believe that Mother's Day is less than a week away?
Although there are only a few days remaining before May 10 arrives, there's still plenty of time to make her feel special and loved.
Please take a few minutes to think about what her personal style is and look for inspiration in one of these gift ideas using three of the Coty Love2Love Fragrances.
GIFT IDEA #1: CHIC JOURNAL
A journal makes a great gift for Mother's Day. Not only will it be easy to find a journal that fits her personality, but pairing it with a bottle of Bluebell +White Tea fragrance will add a special touch like no other.
The Bluebell + White Tea fragrance is described as captivating, radiant, and delicately feminine. Think of the tranquility and ease of a Sunday morning: the perfect time to sit down and write in a personal journal.
GIFT IDEA #2: AT HOME MANICURE
An at home manicure gift like this one is extremely simple to put together.
Start with a bottle of Love2Love Freesia + Violet Petals fragrance. The scent is timeless, just like an effortless sun dress.
When selecting nail polishes, think of timeless colors: golds, silvers, reds or pastel shades to compliment the spring/summer season. Add in a top coat, cuticle tool + oil, and a nail file to complete the gift.
TIP: A beauty themed gift can be as simple or as elaborate as you wish. If she's not a huge fan of getting her nails painted, select a few body products (bath wash + body lotions), facial skin care products, or some makeup instead. These will also make great gifts any beauty junkie would love.
GIFT IDEA #3: JEWELRY
Almost every woman, regardless of age, will love receiving a piece of jewelry this Mother's Day.
Depending on her personal style, a unique statement necklace paired with a bottle of Jasmine + Sparkling Mimosa will certainly make her feel special and carefree - just like the first day of Spring.
Hopefully these three simple gift ideas were helpful. These are certainly some ideas you can use and the best part is, the Coty fragrances can easily be purchased at most retailers, including your nearest Walmart.
When shopping at your local Walmart store, look for the Fragrance aisle (typically found in the Cosmetics section). Some stores will have a special display at the end of the aisle that will have all the Love2Love fragrances and a Love2Love gift bag.
