GENTLEMAN'S ESSENTIALS

A respectable gentleman has to follow specific rules. First, he has to distinguish himself not only for the style, but also for the attitude.

Do you remember the famous movie “To Kill a Mockingbird”? The main character was a charming and with good taste man. He was a celebrity of the cinema and today, he is an icon of style. We are talking about Gregory Peck, a man with a strong personality and elegance, whose talent made him one of the most famous actor of Hollywood and one the most elegant man ever.

With timeless sophistication and charm, Peck transformed the rough attitude into a motif of fascination that is still visible today in the scenes of the movie Vacanze Romane in which, together with the beautiful Audrey Hepburn, he goes around Rome on a Vespa.

His example is the inspiration of our tour, our Gentleman’s Essential.

The Ballpoint Pen, by Montblanc
Always to carry with you inside the pocket of the jacket or together with the agenda, the pen is a distinctive and never useless accessory, which tells a lot of the person who takes it with. We have to mention Montblanc: iconic brand known for the production of writing instruments, proposes a version of ballpoint pen, whose design is inspired by the Rosetta Stone, in the classic black colour. A passe-partout for every day.



The cardcase, by Goyard
Less is more. Goyard, a French brand with a very refined style, offers a small size version of the cardcase, perfect to put inside the pocket of the blazer or of the trousers, obviously in leather with distinctive pattern of the brand. A timeless elegance: to have always with you what you need, with a touch of style.

The watch, by Omega Globemaster
Among all, the watch is a must-have accessory. Do you know a gentleman without it? Gianni Agnelli worn it even over the cuff of the shirt. For over 60 years, the Globemaster by Omega is an icon able to challenge every trend: the first Master Chronometer in the world, a perfect balance between an avant-garde concept and a stunning design, inspired by the past.

The glasses, by Oliver Peoples
Seriously, have you ever seen someone more charming than the one who worn the glasses of Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird? Oliver Peoples, inspired by that model and to gift the main character, offers Gregory Peck: sunglasses or glasses, the model has an anti-reflective coating and a 100% UVA / UVB protection. It is hand finished and it can be customized with a colour palette ranging from tortoise brown to transparent acetate to classic black.

The fragrance, Penhaligon’s 
A collection of masterpieces wrapped in a legendary aura has made Penhaligon's one of the protagonists in the fragrances field. Thanks to the olfactory codes linked to the English tradition and to a refined production, the brand, after almost a century and a half, continues to fascinate generations of gentlemen. Blenheim Bouquet by Penhaligon's is our favourite fragrance. Is there anything better to remember?
