From home decor to apparel to the miscellaneous, these ingenious items are a must-have for every guy. Whether he's a bookworm, shoe fanatic, trend setter, or homebody - this gift guide has got you covered.


Did you know that there are people who experience heart palpitations, confusion, and fainting (some cases even hallucinations) when they become exposed to objects of great beauty? 

The earliest recorded incident was in 1817 when a French novelist and critic, Stendhal, made himself sick on art. With incidences becoming more common, it officially became known as ‘Stendhal Syndrome’ or ‘Florence Syndrome’.

By the end of the pandemic and start of 2022, the world was bursting with ideas, art, and all forms of creative works in between. Below are some of 2022’s greatest discoveries for men from home décor, apparel, accessories, and books. 

If you sense light headedness, heart palpitations, or confusion while browsing these finds you may be experiencing, “Florence Syndrome’.
