Raffles Heritage perfume for fabulous corporate gifts from Singapore tours? Besides the orchid-inspired scents, Singapore Memories has also revived a range of old and heritage perfumes from Singapore’s past like the award-winning Singapore Girl! This will definitely be a meaningful souvenir to remind you of Singapore back in your home country. With a total of 38 different variants of perfumes and room fragrances, you’ll definitely find a scent that suits you! Other gifts suggestion: Another homegrown Singapore brand, TWG Tea has established cafes and stores worldwide, 12 of which are in Singapore. There is a TWG Tea outlet in every terminal at Changi Airport too. Apart from the stores in the country’s airport, the remaining outlets are in the Central Business District, so finding one wouldn’t be a hassle. Just a heads up, ready some cash as their products are quite pricey! Stop by their café for a cuppa and you might find yourself leaving with bags of their products. You can find a plethora of tea flavours, either in the form of tea bags or loose tea leaves (from SGD 10). We recommend purchasing the tea taster collection, which contains a variety of their bestselling tea flavours such as English Breakfast Tea and Jasmine Queen Tea. Disclaimer: TWG Tea cafes are not halal-certified so do purchase their products at your own discretion.

An airport doesn’t sound like much of an attraction – more a series of interminable queues filled with tetchy flyers and shrieking babies. But Singapore’s Changi Airport has been voted the world’s best airport for the fifth consecutive year – and there’s much to marvel at here. Butterfly habitats, Balinese-style rooftop pools, 24-hour cinemas, spa centres, and the highly-raved Jewel Changi Airport – trust us, this ain’t your average airport. There are far worse stopovers during a long-haul flight. Once home to an orchard of fruit trees, this area of Singapore is now widely known as the shopping district. Stretching out over two kilometres in the centre of the city, Orchard Road is home to numerous coffeeshops, beauty salons, art galleries, hotels, designer and discount outlets, restaurants and nightclubs. Come armed with cash and plenty of it.

Because you simply wanted to gift someone with that special bottle of fragrance. Gifting your special someone something luxurious just because you appreciate him or her means a lot. Regardless of the occasion, giving something just because is always an exceptional gesture. As Joseph B. Wirthlin said, “Some memories are unforgettable, remaining ever vivid and heartwarming.” One of the lasting memories that we usually have are those in relation to what we smell. Regardless of what you give a family member, a close friend or a special someone, it is best to do it with a sincere heart. Whether its an expensive perfume or a simple bottle of fragrance, as long as it is given out of love, it’s the thought that always count.

Sir Raffles had a deep fascination for the diversity and he discovered a vast number of plants and animals in this region. The Raffles Museum of Biodiversity Research was established from Raffles’ ideals in the 1800s. Today it’s called ‘Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum’ and houses the great zoological collection called ‘Raffles Collection’. We have taken some of these native plants and bring you “Raffles’ Heritage” to honor his contribution to Singaporean and Asian flora. Fun fact: Several plants are named after Sir Raffles, the most exotic of which is Rafflesia – World’s largest flower with no stem, no leaves and no root! Unfortunately, we couldn’t use it in our room fragrance. Smell it, if you want to know why!

Clarke Quay: This delightful riverside development is packed full of bustling bars and restaurants, boutique shops and pumping nightclubs, attracting a steady stream of tourists alongside Singapore’s party animals. Clarke Quay’s location takes full advantage of the picturesque body of water that emerges from the city’s main river, with alfresco-style dining to be had in an endless number of eateries set around the water’s edge. Head under the futuristic, jelly-like roof and you’ll find some great shopping options as well as a plentiful supply of bars, making this a real bar-hoppers’ heaven.

An ideal corporate gift is the one on which you can add a little message along with your branding without making the gift look weird. Singapore Memories allows you to do that with its clear box with just one side with the brand logo. You can add a sticker or a card with the branding of your company along with a message for the person to whom this gift will be given. This can come in handy when you are giving them away to your clients, colleagues and business associates reminding them about your brand and association. A sacred plant to many cultures, cedar has been used both to purify and drive out negative energy, as well as bring in good influences. It is often burnt to bless a new house just as people are moving in. Quite possibly the best-known ceremonial smudge plant, sage used for meditation, cleansing and purification. Many people burn it throughout their homes after a fight or to cleanse the energy left behind by a negative person.

Herbal Usage: The entire plant is used in rural Thailand as a tonic to strengthen the body.

Fort Canning is located right in the centre of the island. The place has played a significant role in the history of Singapore: Sir Stamford Raffles built his first home on Fort Canning hill, and during World War II it served as the headquarters of the British Army and later as the Japanese Army during their occupation of Singapore. Famous for its ‘open’ captivity models, the Singapore Zoo is designed so that many of the animals are kept in large enclosures that are surrounded by moats and other relatively noninvasive barriers. The zoo is home to over 300 animal species, 15% of which are classified as threatened. Find additional information on this website.
