The Holiday Wish List

By now the halls may be decked, but if you're anything like me, the shopping is far from done. If you still haven't gotten the perfect gift for the special guy in your life (me, duh), read along and start clicking your mouse! 

And, by the way, all of these items would fit perfectly under my Christmas tree, hint hint.

Paddywax Cranberry Fig Candle
This simply packaged candle is the holiday season in a jar. Sublimely scented, but in no way overpowering, it will provide hours of olfactory satisfaction. $24, 8 oz., www.paddywax.com

CoSTUME National Scent Intense
I have been wearing CoSTUME National Scent Intense exclusively for about two years and I never fail to get compliments on my scent. Not a department store fragrance counter regular, CoSTUME National is far from mainstream, and until now I've only revealed my signature scent to a select few. The scent is sexy and seductive, warm and inviting, yet somehow clean and crisp. Created as a unisex fragrance, the scent mingles with each individual persons body chemistry to create an intriguing and complex fragrance. $140, 3.4 oz., www.costumenational.com

Tod's Benson Venetian Loafer

Aloe Vera, cucumber, coconut oil and vitamin E come together to produce a intoxicatingly scented, irritation-free, close-as-can-be shave. $18, 6 oz., www.nancyboy.com
