Smell Better.
Dress Better.
Live Better.
Be Better.

Curated finds and honest recommendations for people who value quality — and for brands who want to reach them.

I'm Tomas Giovan. I share fragrances, style, restaurants, and quality finds genuinely worth your attention — collected from a life lived between New Jersey, Austin, Bangkok, and Ohio, with passport stamps from just about everywhere in between (and a long list of places still to go). No hype. No fake luxury. Just quality.

What I Share

Four obsessions.

01

Fragrance

Designer, niche, luxury, and hidden gems. Helping people smell better while avoiding expensive mistakes.

02

Style

Outfits, watches, accessories, grooming. The small details that elevate personal presentation.

03

Travel

Hotels, restaurants, destinations, lounges, and experiences worth remembering.

04

Quality Finds

Duffles, everyday carry, and lifestyle products that deliver on their promise.

Inside My World

Currently rotating.

What I'm wearing, smelling, eating, and exploring right now.

Brunello Cucinelli · Pour Homme

Fragrance of the Month

Brunello Cucinelli · Pour Homme

Eau de Parfum · 100ml

A refined Italian composition. Understated confidence in clean glass — the kind of fragrance that gets remembered without asking for attention.

Heritage Chrono · 38mm

Watch of the Month

Heritage Chrono · 38mm

Steel · Cognac leather

A lesson in understated luxury. Small proportions, immense character.

Quinta da Henriqueta

Restaurant of the Month

Quinta da Henriqueta

Rua Lopes Quintas, 165 · Rio de Janeiro

A lush garden restaurant in Jardim Botânico. Authentic Brazilian cooking, warm service, and the kind of evening that lingers.

Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro

Destination of the Month

Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro

Brazil · Sunset on the shore

Golden hour on one of the world's most iconic beaches. Warm water, soft sand, and the silhouette of Dois Irmãos fading into the evening.

Mar Hernz · Mundial Tee

Outfit

Mar Hernz · Mundial Tee

Summer 2026 · Heritage crests

A collector-piece tee built from football heritage. Bold crests, clean cotton, and the kind of detail that starts conversations.

The Weekender

Travel Essential

The Weekender

Full-grain leather · Cabin-sized

Carries three days, looks better with every flight. The only bag I bring.

New Orleans

Coming Up Next

New Orleans

Louisiana · Coming soon

Cajun flavors, jazz on Frenchmen Street, and the kind of warmth that stays with you. A city built on rhythm and appetite.
