Editor's Picks: Billecart-Salmon champagne, Tommy Hilfiger jeans, AMAFFI fragrance and REAL shorts

Aberfeldy's latest Exceptional Cask release traces a journey from Highland Perthshire to Portugal's Douro Valley, matured 24 years before finishing in White Port casks sourced from the region. A fresh, fruit-forward influence lifts the distillery's honeyed style into brighter territory, delivering nectarine, honeysuckle, and citrus blossom over a soft, nutty cereal finish. Only 252 bottles exist, making this a rare pairing of Scottish craft and Portuguese winemaking, and a standout bottle for the collection.

If Nolan’s The Odyssey has left you newly acquainted with the power of Grecian gods, and you’re after a scent that channels a little of that same energy, this one might be worth a look. AMAFFI’s Poseidon crashes in like a wave of citrus, floral, and woody notes, with orange blossom lending freshness and mystical juniper adding a refined edge. The bottle carries a handmade medallion depicting the sea god himself, crowned with three hand-polished crystals for additional Mount Olympus flair.

If you've caught any of the coverage from our little Blenheim bash last week, you'll know we like our Champagne pink, and preferably in a large format. Billecart-Salmon's Rosé is widely considered the benchmark of the category, offering a pleasant shade of pale pink with golden hints and fine, persistent bubbles. In a magnum, the smaller ratio of air to liquid lets it age more gracefully still, producing finer bubbles and more resilience against temperature swings.

Tommy Hilfiger’s denim pedigree remains genuinely unrivalled, and these Ryan Slim Straight jeans are no exception. Recently spotted on Romeo Beckham for the brand’s Always Denim Fall 2026 campaign (atop New York’s Mark Hotel), the faded wash gives the slim straight cut real character in addition to a lived-in feel and the timeless versatility that we’ve come to expect from the storied brand.

High-end luggage, professional darts, and Walton Goggins are three things that perhaps haven't occupied the central intersection of a Venn diagram before, until now. Made in Germany alongside darts specialist Winmau, this anodised aluminium case houses a co-branded Blade X dartboard, two sets of tungsten darts monogrammed with the RIMOWA logo (plus spare flights) all wrapped in a microfibre-lined interior. As if this wasn't lux enough on its own, the stylish Goggins-fronted campaign firmly elevates the classic pub game to swish boardroom decor.

Staying pleasantly fragrant on the go isn't always straightforward, but Jo Malone's All Over Body Spray makes it effortless with 360° continuous mist technology that sprays evenly from any angle. Myrrh & Tonka's warm, ambery signature carries through from morning meetings to evening plans with no top-up required, making this a lightweight addition to the briefcase or gym bag.

Built for those who take their training seriously, REAL's Uprise shorts are cut to handle everything from sprint intervals to a heavy gym session without ever getting in the way. Woven from a featherweight 110g Portuguese fabric treated with Silvadur for odour control, they pair an elasticated waistband with internal drawcords, two hand pockets, and a hidden YKK zip pocket for valuables.

Limited to just 318 bottles and best enjoyed neat, Don Julio's Última Reserva marks two decades since Don Julio González and his family planted their final agave harvest back in 2006. With that crop forming the heart of this Extra Añejo iteration, this collector's release has rested in ex-bourbon oak and been finished in Madeira wine-seasoned casks to deliver notes of caramel, apricot, and orange through to a smooth, honeyed agave finish. To announce the release to even greater fanfare, Don Julio has commissioned an exclusive silk scarf from Mexican artist Javier Barrios to mark Última Reserva's arrival. Adding further sartorial edge to this memorable drop.

California-based Vuori is the latest name to join Bicester Village's impressive brand roster, having steadily built momentum in the sporting and athleisure space since launching in 2015. The range's versatility is a key driver behind the brand's meteoric rise, with the collection moving as easily from studio to street as it does from course to café. The Venture Quarter Zip is a solid entry point, and its water-resistant, wind-breaking shell lined in soft Strato fabric handles cool days on the course, and brisk morning commutes.

Recently stocked in Marylebone's health and grooming bastion, John Bell & Croyden, the One for Hair Strength from Gielly Green is a standout pick for anyone whose colour or heat styling has taken its toll. Built around the brand's Sacred Trio of saffron, moringa oil, and rice water, independent lab testing shows it restores over 72 per cent of disulfide bonds and boosts hair elasticity by 28 per cent. A routine of two or three pumps on damp hair should do the job, and there's no rinsing required.

Knitted in Italy from 7-gauge organic cotton, the Lowry Polo from resort wear aficionados, Orlebar Brown, makes a subtle statement in the form of a crochet-effect stitch that gives the two-colour stripe genuine texture and depth. Finished with contrast edge stitch embroidery along the collar and placket, it's a characterful essential for beachy soirees.

Sipsmith is turning its Chiswick distillery into London’s most theatrical dinner table on 26 August, with its converted gin bus serving guests bespoke welcome cocktails before dinner amongst the copper stills; Prudence, Patience, and Constance. Once seated, MasterChef: The Professionals contestant Giuseppe Trezza has designed a three-course menu inspired by gin in all its forms, with each course paired to its own Sipsmith cocktail.
