Local Luggage, Fenty Beauty, and Japanese Spirits Are Part of MONTECRISTO’s July Wishlist

Monos Metro Tote

It’s summertime, and the living is easy—and travel can be too with Vancouver-based Monos’s new Metro Carry-all duffel. Channelling the iconic Pepita pattern upholstery in classic Porsche interiors, the timeless houndstooth check fabric is crafted from a heavyweight woven blend of natural and synthetic fibres, while the ultra-microfibre vegan leather detailing resists both water and scratches. Easily fitting into the overhead bin, this weekend bag has a padded strap, tech sleeve pocket, interior water bottle pocket, and trolley sleeve to slip over the rolling suitcase.

Fenty Beauty Body Lava

Fenty Beauty Body Lava for MONTECRISTO's July wishlist

In four limited-edition summer shades, Rihanna’s cult-favourite Fenty Beauty Body Lava creates a high-shine finish for the body—much like highlighter does on cheekbones. Offered in bronze, copper, rose gold, or opal sheen, this nonsticky, gel-based luminizer features a delicate floral-vanilla scent, light-infusing micropearls, and a sheer tint of colour for an sun-soaked summer glow.

Dior Enchanting Gardens by Rizzoli

From the Villa Les Rhumbs in Granville to the Château de la Colle Noire in Montauroux, Rizzoli’s new Dior Enchanting Gardens tome highlights the pivotal role gardens and flowers played in the life and work of designer Christian Dior. As each chapter unfolds, the gardens of Dior’s private residences are revealed along with the house’s fragrances and iconic dresses like the femme fleur silhouette of 1947. It’s a multifaceted celebration of the floral world that the couturier masterfully reinvented each season, from collection to collection.

Brunello Cucinelli Parfum

Brunello Cucinelli’s new Incanti Poetici parfum collection reflects the Italian designer’s craftsmanship and artistry with six new perfumes inspired by beautiful destinations and poetry. Vie Eteree, for example, stems from the poem L’infinito by Giacomo Leopardi and fuses green notes of bergamot from Calabria with aromatic undertones of basil from Egypt and spicy cardamom from India. Brezza Gentile, inspired by L’aura serena che fra Verdi fronde by Francis Petrarch, has lively tones of lemon from Sicily, while earthy patchouli from Indonesia invites contemplation.

Omega Aqua Terra Timepiece

Wishlist: A gold Omega watch inside a wooden display box

Debuting 23 years ago, the now iconic Aqua Terra watch by Omega begins a new chapter in its history with a 30-millimetre collection with 12 different expressions. These include five stainless steel models with polished and brushed bracelets, an 18-karat Sedna Gold model, and three 18-karat Moonshine Gold models. Each timepiece is powered by one of two new Master Chronometer movements with a 20-millimetre diameter designed specifically for the 30-millimetre case.

Omy Laboratories Lip Drinks Trio

Made exclusively in Canada with plant-based wax and active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, moringa oil), Omy Laboratories’ new Lip Drinks glide on like hydrating skin-care products but taste like a refreshing summer drink. Affogato is rich and sweet like its Italian namesake coffee, Lemonade recalls the sparkling zest of fresh-squeezed lemons, and Matcha-Coco blends green notes of matcha latte with coconut milk.

Suntory -196 Vodka Soda

Just in time for patio season, Suntory’s -196 Vodka Soda arrives from Japan using whole lemons frozen at -196 C, which are then crushed. The proprietary process locks in bold, natural flavour before being infused with premium vodka.

Oribe Côte d’Azur Gift Set

A box set of fragrances on a marble countertop, part of our July wishlist

Housed in collectible packaging that’s certified by the Forest Stewardship Council and inspired by an opulent Venetian palazzo, Oribe’s limited-edition Côte d’Azur hand and fragrance set features antique etching on the inner lid featuring la mariposa blanca, the national flower of Cuba and a nod to stylist Oribe Canales’s heritage. With notes of white butterfly jasmine and sandalwood, the hand cream softens and protects skin, while the Côte d’Azur eau de parfum, crafted by one of France’s oldest perfume houses, captures the legendary destination with citrus notes and Calabrian bergamot.
