Louis XIII: The perfect present for loved ones this gifting season

With the holidays just around the corner, there are more than a few reasons to raise your glasses to in celebration. While home-bound with close friends and loved ones this time of the year, a toast to togetherness and new beginnings comes complete with the perfect winter imbibe to share or gift this season, the venerable Louis XIII.

Boasting over 140 years of experience, the luxury cognac maker boasts unparalleled skill, knowledge and sheer savoir-fair in creating deliciously tantalising cognacs, that few can match up to — it’s small wonder, then, that it makes for the most desirable and sought-after of presents.

Making moments into memories, the root of the indelible flavours of Louis XIII lie in the painstaking brewing process each cognac undergoes. Since the master distiller’s founding in 1874, generations of wine cellar experts have amassed and curated a staggering array of eau de vie made from grapes grown in France’s Grande Champagne region.

To ensure the ultimate blend, these experts select from over 1,200 different eau de vie – some younger, some dating back centuries – to create a synergistic whole. Over 250 disparate aromas are instilled within, ranging from the vivid freshness of passion fruit and spice of ginger to rich notes of candied plumbs. Small wonder, then, that drinking Louis XIII has been compared to drinking perfume.

Even as great care has been taken in distilling the cognacs, equal attention is paid to their bottling to ensure the finished product is fit for the eponymous French king the brand takes its name from. As such, each bottle is lovingly handcrafted by artisans of one of two French royal crystal workshops – Baccarat or Saint Louis – transforming the containers into glorious works of art. Epitomising cognac-making both without and within, Louis XIII makes for the perfect present to gift that special someone this festive season.

Festive Scents: Trudon unveils new Christmas scented candle collection

Just in time for Christmas, the world’s oldest candlemaker Trudon has launched a special holiday collection inspired by the opulent court of Sun King Louis XIV at Versailles.

This royal motif is immediately evident on the glass, where the Trudon emblem is embellished with black and gold arabesques that recall the palace’s gates and ironworks. Enhancing its appeal even further are the chateau’s silhouette and royal masquerades that have been brought to life through the stunning illustrations of renowned British artist Lawrence Mynott.

Each vessel is painstakingly crafted by hand, and involves an intricate four-step process to achieve its unique stenciled design. First, gold foil is applied inside the glass, before a stencil is placed on top. Then, skilled artisans sand the foil through the stencil, ensuring only the illustration remains in place. A coat of paint is then applied to seal the structure into place.

Five holiday candles comprise the latest festive collection from Trudon: Gabriel, Ernesto, Gloria, Fir, and the all-new Bayonne. Each boasts a unique scent that are quintessentially part of Christmas celebrations, be it chimney fires, wood and spices, fir trees or spicy chocolate. All come in a Classic size of 270g, which is priced at HK$960. Available for purchase at Scented Niche starting from mid-November, these beautiful aromatic creations are perfect for enhancing your home this holiday season.

Lee Gardens is all geared up for Christmas with its first-ever personalised Christmas Love Baubles event. As part of the ‘All Is Joyful, All Is Bright’ theme, hundreds of shiny, personalised Christmas bubbles have been hung up across three locations at Hysan Place and Lee Theatre.

Add to that the Christmas lodge-style stalls and affordable gift items ideal for Christmas, and you have reason for a month-long celebration! Running from 24 November 2017 to 2 January 2018, Lee Gardens Christmas Handicraft Fair will also have 3D image projections where guests can take their pictures and have them projected on giant columns.

The medley of stalls and booths selling fun, quirky gifts and delectable dishes add their own charm to the Christmas cheer. Our personal recommendation for a nice gift would be the preserved flower bottles and floral lamps from Amen Florist & Décor and a large cookie box from Sharon Chan’s Blesscuit Bakery. Those with sweet tooth should not miss the honey sausages from Hexapi Honey and the limited-edition éclairs from La Mer, the new French restaurant by musician Mark Lui.

Fancy some sparkling reds this holiday season? No, not the wines – we’re talking about Christian Louboutin’s new Metalissime Rouge line.

The renowned French designer has given his iconic Rouge Louboutin a sparkly twist just in time for the holiday season. With the new Metalissime line, the designer’s signature red hue has a shimmering pearl sheen that’s sure to attract eyeballs wherever you go.
