Desmond & Dempsey The Jag Cream

£135 at desmondanddempsey.com

It's an incontestable fact that everyone enjoys a posh pair of pyjamas – and whether they're into crisp cotton or slinky silk, Desmond & Dempsey makes some of the best. The leopard print on this classic set has become somewhat of a brand signature, while the oversized fit ticks both the style and comfort boxes.

Steamery Cirrus X Steamer

Venturing into the realm of household tech is always a risky gifting move – yes, a new hoover is still blasphemous – but Steamery's chic clothing care products are absolutely a wise move.

The brand's new Cirrus X steamer is a satisfyingly sleek hand-held device that'll lift wrinkles from blazers, tailoring and jeans. It's portable too, so ideal for gifting pre-h0liday.

Trudon Spiritus Sancti Scented Candle

If you think a scented candle is a bit of a cop-out, you must not be familiar with the Trudon takeover: these traditionally made glass votives can be seen in the most stylish of homes. This one evokes the grounding scent of a flower-strewn church.

Le Labo Santal 33 - Eau de Parfum

Is a nice fragrance a clichéd gift? Or is a clichéd gift just a classic that you haven't given the requisite thought to? Nobody will ever accuse you of not thinking it all through if you turn up with a Le Labo in hand, especially the ridiculously acclaimed Santal 33, wafts of which you will have caught in the chicest Soho haunts. Think: smooth-as-butter sandalwood mixed with sun-bleached leather, and you're on the right lines.

Cartier Tank Must

Now 29% Off

We’d hesitate to call Cartier’s Tank watch timeless – given that telling the time is something it does really rather well – but it has a perennial elegance that transcends fads, and means it looks good with absolutely anything. First created by Louis Cartier in 1917, this iteration, the Tank Must 34mm stainless steel watch, has a silvered opaline dial, blued-steel sword-shaped hands. Chic and then some.

Moyses Stevens Flowers

If you're going to say it with flowers, nothing makes a better statement than a bouquet from legendary florists Moyses Stevens. In business since 1876, and the owner of more than one Royal Warrant, these eccentric, maximalist creatives produce some the most memorable arrangements in the industry. And to top it all off, you can add a bottle of Ruinart or Trudon candle to your delivery.

Villa Antinori Rosso Toscana 75Cl

A smooth, reliably delicious option for any dinner party, the origins of this Chianti-style wine go back almost a century. It became the celebrated winemaker’s signature wine in 1928 and was named after the family’s eponymous villa in Tuscany (which has housed generations of Antinoris since the mid-1500s, although they started making wine almost 200 years before that). It’s a decadent, dolce vita backstory, but rest assured it’ll taste just as good alongside your friend’s incinerated pasta bake.
