You can do better than socks and jocks. Discover the best Father’s Day gifts – from ready-to-wrap scents to travel-ready tech and more – for the dad who says he doesn’t want anything (but definitely deserves something).
Always leave gifting to the last minute? It’s not too late to give your dad the Father’s Day present he actually wants (and needs). Whether you’re shopping for your dad, your partner, or a father figure in your life, there are plenty of ways to spoil him – whatever your budget. From skincare upgrades, to grooming essentials and on-the-go tech: consider this your shortcut to winning Father’s Day.
The dad who deserves a new signature scent
Nothing says “you’re the favourite of the family” like a well-chosen scent. Leading our picks is the bold scent of Azzaro Wanted by Night, designed for the dad that still regales everyone with tales of wild adventures from their youth.
The dad who is happiest in sunshine and salt water would suit the summery Versace Pour Homme, while on the other end of the spectrum, Burberry London feels like a leather-bound book read in front of a crackling fire. Still not sure? Yves Saint Laurent Y is a bestseller for very good reason.
The dad who keeps it sharp
If has a skincare routine with more than one step, or he just needs a little push in that direction, these grooming upgrades are guaranteed wins. Start strong with an electric shaver - or if your dad hasn’t seen a shaver in years, a beard brush and comb and beard balm combo can give his beard the taming it needs.
The dad who takes travel seriously
You know the type – shoes off before security even asks, boarding pass in a plastic sleeve, at the gate two hours early “just in case”.
Whether he’s catching flights for work or just takes his weekend trips very seriously, these online‑only picks are made for him.
If his suitcase is always packed a week in advance, then a set of packing cubes and luggage scales will keep him organised. And if your dad is dreaming of a Euro Summer (we heard he’s partial to an Aperol Spritz), then a sleep mask with in-built headphones will help him snooze on the long haul flight, while a set of air tags will allow him to keep an eye on those carefully packed suitcases.
The dad who always hosts
He’s the one that is always behind the grill, ensuring that the steak only gets turned once - all while regaling everyone with a story they’ve heard before. The lunchtime spread is the key to his hosting duties, with electronic grinders and a cheeseboard making their way to the table, while a good meat thermometer and bamboo cutting boards are integral to the behind-the-scenes prep. All of which will be brought out with a flourish at the next family function.
The dad who has everything?
If he’s impossible to buy for, insists he “doesn’t want anything,” or already owns every gadget, fragrance, and grooming tool under the sun – a Chemist Warehouse Gift Card is the way to go. It takes the pressure off you, gives him the freedom to choose something he’ll genuinely enjoy, and proves that great gifting doesn’t have to be complicated. Because sometimes, the best gift for Father’s Day is letting him pick something just for himself.
