Tibor Rosetti Galic Samardzic: Norwegian designer with Croatian roots

I've been a follower of Tibor on social media for a long time. His way of dressing and his attitude towards small details have always been interesting to me. But it was only through talking to him that I realized that he has Croatian roots, his full surname is Galic Samardzic and that he often spends his summers in Opatija, which gave the whole story an additional, more personal layer.

Reportage Garage: Ivan Levak and the Porsche 944

The idea of a column about vehicles and the people behind them was born this summer. Who owns them, where did the car come from and what interesting stories does it hide? These are some of the questions we wanted to cover, and the idea of a reportage was so appealing that the name Reportage Garage was chosen. The name somehow perfectly describes what we want to do: bring stories about “tin pets”, from cars to motorcycles, all the way to boats and airplanes.

Interview with David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi: The soul behind Toskovat’

Recently, Memoire Perfumery opened its doors in Zagreb, offering for the first time in Croatia Toskovat’ perfumes, a brand that quickly caught the attention of fragrance lovers intrigued by the stories behind the scents. Although I was already familiar with the brand, the creator’s authentic and deeply personal story intrigued me so much that we decided to take it a step further and conduct an exclusive interview with the founder himself, Mr. David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi.

Style Talk with Kirk Robert Chambers: Fall essentials, bucket hats and Moscot

Fall is that in–between moment when your wardrobe has to do a little more thinking. Mornings feel crisp, afternoons still carry some warmth, and the right outfit needs to move easily between the two. It’s not about reinventing your look but about adjusting the rhythm, layering smarter, playing with texture, and knowing when to trade linen for wool or suede for leather.

Style Talk with Lucas Nicholson: Gucci loafers, vintage Ralph Lauren shorts and wearing black in summer

Some men collect stamps, Lucas Nicholson collects Gucci loafers. Eleven pairs and counting, each in a different leather, including a vintage crocodile pair he scored for a steal. That small detail says a lot about his approach to style: rooted in quality, character, and a touch of the unexpected. For Lucas, summer is a season to lean into comfort without losing polish: loose linen shirts in vibrant colors, vintage Ralph Lauren shorts, and shoes that work as hard on the Rivier

Style Talk with Alexandre Vinualez: Staying cool in the summer, jungle jackets & vintage watches

When the heat rolls in and the jackets come off, some men surrender their style to the sun. Not this one. For him, summer isn’t an excuse to get sloppy, it’s an invitation to get sharper. His go-to look? Flare denim paired with a western belt, black loafers, a crisp shirt, and a double-breasted jacket. Sunglasses, of course, are non-negotiable. “There’s no reason to let the heat defeat your silhouette,” he says.

Style Talk with Loïc Fanel Roman: Summer looks between simplicity and boldness

When the sun is high and 30 degrees are easily exceeded, only two options are open to a stylish man: simplicity or audacity. As the flood of shapeless Bermuda shorts, flip-flops and shoddy T-shirts flood the streets, squares and terraces, we’ve all wondered how to avoid looking like this, how to beat the heat while retaining a certain sense of style.

Top 5 perfumes you’ll want to wear during summer

We can agree that summer is most associated with the scent of the sea, white flowers, citrus and other summer fruits. With the right perfume, we can further revive these scents or continue to use them throughout the year to take us back to those carefree and relaxed times. With the arrival of warmer days, we exchange heavy, oriental scents for those that carry watery notes and light woody bases. The team from Mémoire perfumery helped us choose scents that perfectly accompany

Tick & Talk with Pero Mamić: From a small watchmaking studio to Rolex
