Ask your dad what his favorite cologne is. If your dad does not have a favorite or you'd like to keep the gift a secret, determine a suitable scent by evaluating his taste. Men's fragrances tend to be either woodsy, fresh or aromatic. Visit a site such as Beauty Riot or Sephora and use their tools for selecting an appropriate scent.

Select a fragrance and purchase several products within the same theme. Start with an eau de toilette then add a matching body wash, travel spray and soaps. You can find all of these products at your local department store.
