Adventure ahoy

The braveheart in you might want to rough it out but no camping trip is complete without the essentials. So, make the Maglite Solitaire box your companion on your next trip into the wild. Packaged in a compact case, the kit includes a Maglite torch that weighs less than an ounce even with batteries and fits into pockets and waist-pouches. The other component of the box is a classic Victorinox Swiss knife to bail you out should you get into in a rough spot. The Maglite Solitaire box is available at all Basecamp stores for Rs 995.

Smells like heaven

Even the bottle is interestingly designed — a replica of the GUESS logo with a little golden, heart-shaped charm attached to the neck of the bottle. The bottles come in three sizes 30ml, 50ml and 75ml priced at Rs 1,790, Rs 2,490 and Rs 2,990 respectively.
