Toast-hued suede leather while its<br />

cool nod to the biker jacket, the<br />

Pony Rider, has been recut in DP’s<br />

iconic and luxurious textured Bulle<br />

leather. The best part? Buy either<br />

topper before <strong>April</strong> 16, <strong>2024</strong> and<br />

Call your Bluff<br />

There’s a new Kiwi-made gin on<br />

the block and as you’d guess from<br />

where it’s made, it’s unapologetically<br />

authentic. Clean, bold and pretty<br />

bloody good, Bluff Distillery’s gin<br />

is made on-site by the sea with a<br />

unique twist – the instantly iconic<br />

custom bottle pays homage to an<br />

old glass buoy, reminiscent of the<br />

(sometimes rebellious) maritime<br />

heritage that defines the town.<br />

On the West Coast<br />

From our fave South Island<br />

candle co Nevé, new limited<br />

edition fragrance West Coast<br />

pays homage to founder Tessa<br />

Lyes’ home region, with the soft<br />

green earthiness of nīkau palm<br />

and harakeke, crisp top notes of<br />

ozone and sea salt and a deep,<br />

woody base of moss, amber<br />

and driftwood. “This unique<br />

fragrance really captures the<br />

West Coast magic. It’s grounded<br />

but fresh, earthy but clean<br />

and instantly transports me<br />

to the calm of my birth town,<br />

Hokitika,” says Tessa.<br />
