Above The perfect Father's Day gift, Recharge Black Pepper incorporates hints of piquant pepper, nuances of bergamot and the zesty bite of myrtle pepper
Crafted by legendary Grasse-born perfumer Jacques Chabert (the brains behind Molton Brown's most recognisable creations) the fragrance is inspired by what he calls 'the bold spirit of adventure' and his lifelong passion for 'bridging the chasm between citrus and woody fragrances.'
Recharge Black Pepper opens with a thrilling shot of piquant pepper, softened by nuances of bergamot and intensified by the zesty bite of myrtle pepper. 'The dry-down reveals its voluptuous oakmoss and woody depth,' Chabert adds, like a fine suit that surprises you with secret pockets.

If, like Chabert, you believe in the power of scent in making a lasting impression and that perfume is a tool of self-expression, you'll appreciate the dedication and meticulous crafting that went into this collection all the more. Interestingly, the Re-Charge Black Pepper fragrance began simply as Chabert's personal fragrance in 2001—since becoming a best-selling range that's timeless and desirable.
The range delivers a sensorial expedition in three acts: Cleanse with the invigorating Bath and Shower Gel, wear the Eau De Parfum with earthy vetiver and herby coriander at its heart, or live the scent fully with a home diffuser that turns any home into a gentleman's lodge in the Scottish Highlands (imagination required, whisky optional).

Available in everything from the full-sized Eau De Parfum, an indulgent bath and shower gel or a travel-friendly 7.5ml spray, this collection makes an impeccable Father's Day gift—the kind you'll want to 'borrow' for yourself every once in a while.
So whether you're honouring Dad, a father figure, or just treating yourself to something deliciously daring, make it Re-charge Black Pepper. Self-care needn't always smell like roses—it should smell like a wild, spice-laced off-road trek with oakmoss at the wheel and pepper in the driver's seat.

A soulful, slow travel guide to Bandung, Indonesia
Kawah Putih (White Crater) Above Turquoise lake at Kawah Putih in West Java, Indonesia (Photo: Unsplash / Maneesh Shahani) Located approximately 50 kilometres south of Bandung, Kawah Putih is a volcanic crater lake whose unique, shifting hue is a main draw. Depending on the weather and sulphur concentration, mist could curl over turquoise waters one day, pale jade the next. Go early, when the crowds haven't arrived, to get the best photos or simply seize some contemplative quiet, humbled by the earth's power and beauty. Saung Angklung Udjo A well-known hub for culture and arts, Saung Angklung Udjo is best known for staging concerts with local perfomers playing traditional bamboo instruments ( angklung ). Beyond the show, opt for a private or small-group angklung workshop allows for an authentic, educational experience into Sundanese music traditions, often with master musicians guiding you. See also: The beauty of order in abstraction: National Gallery Singapore mounts its first-ever solo exhibition dedicated to Fernando Zóbel NuArt Sculpture Park Founded by Bali-born sculptor Nyoman Nuarta, this vast creative complex is set in a lush enclave and offers a deeper understanding of modern Indonesian art. It consists of gardens, a museum, a gallery open to other exhibiting artists, the well-lit Laxmi Resto, spiritual areas, a craft boutique, amphitheater, an audio visual room, plus the workshop where Nuarta himself produces his larger-than-life sculptures. You can also anticipate talks, workshops and classes held here. Selasar Sunaryo Art Space Another must-visit for creative souls—this space features rotating exhibitions and a curated layout perfect for thoughtful conversations. Even if you don't know much about Indonesian contemporary art, Selasar gives you room to feel something. The little café overlooking the valley is one of the most peaceful spots in Bandung to sit with a cup of kopi tubruk and a notebook. Artists come and go, sometimes willing to share stories if you ask with curiosity. Kawasan Punclut Wake up early and head to Punclut for panoramic vistas and a scenic walk along forested trails, and hopefully you'll wind up enjoying a traditional Sundanese brunch at a cafe or a rustic warung serving steaming nasi timbel, fried tempeh and sambal that will leave your lips tingling. Reward your morning rise with honest, good food—locally sourced, prepared slowly and eaten communally—best eaten with your hands. For a touch of romance and whimsy, stop by Dago Bakery Punclut, a café-restaurant designed like a classic European castle. The menu features a delightful mix of Indonesian and Western dishes, complemented by a selection of pastries from the renowned Gloria Cakes & Tarts. Braga's hidden corners Above A preserve colonial building on Braga Street (Photo: Unsplash / Fendy Pradana) Tourists flock to the famous Braga Street for its preserved 19th-century buildings, chic boutiques and charming restaurants, but there's more that lie behind the colonial façades. Seek out the quieter studios, bookstores, jazz bars and antique shops, with layers of history lingering in every timeworn corner. More from Tatler: A cultural wanderer's guide to Macau, where East meets West on cobbled streets The Bandung coffee trail Above Inside a cosy café in Bandung (Photo: Unsplash / Matiinu Ramadhan) Bandung is a coffee country—and not just any coffee. Highland beans from Ciwidey, Lembang and Malabar are known for their complexity and story. One of the most fulfilling things you can do here is to visit a local coffee farm (some offer slow tours by appointment) and see how beans are picked and processed with care. Then, of course, sit down for a tasting with the grower. Back in the city, seek out cafés like Kopi Toko Djawa or Two Hands Full, where baristas treat each pour-over like a small ritual—a reason to linger.
