For the bibliophile who believes a room should smell as good as it looks, Chase & Wonder’s Library Collection Trio is a most thoughtful indulgence. Combining a hand-decorated ceramic candle, room fragrance and luxury matches, its rich notes of amber, cedarwood and pomegranate evoke the atmosphere of a beautifully appointed private library.
Technogym Connected Dumbbells+, £2810
For the fitness devotee who prefers their workouts with a little more polish, Technogym’s Connected Dumbbells+ bring a smarter approach to strength training. Designed to streamline the home gym without compromising on performance, they make an especially thoughtful winter gift - a perfect for keeping a routine on track when dark mornings and colder evenings make the gym feel decidedly less appealing.
FATSO Chocolate Bars, from £7.50
Dark chocolate gets a deliciously adventurous makeover with FATSO, whose ethically sourced Colombian cocoa provides the canvas for a rather indulgent collection of flavour combinations.

Our favourite has to be Sweet Tart - a serious treat for the discerning chocoholic.
Portofino Dry Gin, £43
A touch of the Italian Riviera for the festive drinks cabinet, Portofino Dry Gin is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate. Distilled with 21 botanicals, including fragrant Mediterranean herbs, it arrives in a beautifully illustrated turquoise bottle. An ultra chic gift for the discerning gin enthusiast. Available from Ocado and Master of Malt.
