From elevated grooming must-haves to fragrance essentials Dad is guaranteed to love, find our foolproof Father’s Day gift guide ahead.

PSA: Father’s Day falls this Sunday, 21 Jun 2026! So, if you haven’t already, gear up and get ready to plan out the all-day extravaganza your pa deserves. From a delectable buffet spread curated just for dad to an active day out by the docks to a shopping spree he’s sure to grumble at (but will secretly love), there are so many ways to show dad how much you care. Of course, the cherry on top is a self-care staple, gifted to him front he bottom of your heart.

There’s just one problem—dads can be tricky to shop for. They are creatures of habit, and they likely have their grooming favourites set in stone (read: A bottle of 6-in-1 for the shower and an aftershave they’ve been using for 36 years). In this case, shopping for the perfect gift is a balancing act. In essence, you want to embrace what’s familiar to dad, while giving it a fresh spin. Think a fragrance with the same notes as his go-to aftershave, or a body soap that has a sensorial, luxurious texture. 

It’s a tough balance to strike, but we’re here to help with our 2026 Father’s Day grooming gift guide—find the full listicle below:

 

Grooming essentials

What does dad really need in his grooming routine? If we stick to the basics, it’s a hydrating moisturiser, a good aftershave, and a trusty razor (or electric shaver, whichever floats his boat!). When shopping for dad, keep it simple and look to elevate his existing routine rather than adding more steps. This way, he’ll actually use the goodies you give him rather than them sitting in his drawer gathering dust. Here, we’ve listed the old man grooming tried-and-trues!

 

Hair essentials

Let us guess: Dad’s current hair routine is limited to a random shampoo, wet-set gel and a blow dryer he bought 15 years ago. The good news? It won’t take much to elevate his routine. The bad news? Styling stick waxes and Dyson Supersonics may be a little bit of a learning curve for him. Still, it’s worth the upgrade! This curation of hair essentials has been selected for their convenience and ease of use, so we’re confident Dad will work out how to incorporate them into his everyday routine.

 

 

Fragrance 

When it comes to a signature scent that dad definitely will enjoy, there are three general scent profiles to look into: warm and spicy, earthy and woody, or fresh. What can we say? Anything in that wheelhouse is like catnip to the male population! You could, of course, risk shopping for ouds or florals should your pop be partial to more unconventional scents, but if you want to stay on the safe side, we’ve got the perfect list of fragrance essentials at the ready.
