We're officially past the halfway mark and stepping into July, team, and it's time for another round of our weekly Staff Favourites! Each week, we try to show off some things that have brought us some joy in the hopes it'll help you find your own, and this week we're showcasing some delicious food – a lot of delicious food, actually. Turns out we all love a good meal – shocker! So prep your taste buds (and smell receptors), and dive into this week's Staff Favourites. Coach For Men Eau de Parfum | Image: Supplied Coach For Men Eau de Parfum Nick Hall – Editor-in-Chief I've always been a fan of Coach fragrances, right from my very first EDT, so when the famed New York maison dropped a new Eau de Parfum, I was cautiously optimistic. Coach For Men doesn't disappoint. Crafted by perfumer Juliette Karagueuzoglou, the latest fragrance has all the elements of a perfect summer addition, bursting with citrus highlights and the captivating spice of cardamom. Coach describes this one as its 'boldest scent yet', and I have to agree. Where the brand's other releases, particularly those on the more masculine side, have favoured earthy tones, Coach For Men feels like a fresh hit of florals underpinned by a subtle, if not slightly traditional, cedarwood complexity. If you are looking for a fragrance that feels as fresh as a summer's day, Coach has you covered.

It has a woody and clean scent to it with a hint of black pepper: it's meant to be inspired by the clash of fresh waves on a warm volcanic rock, but I've never been to a volcano so I can't confirm how close they got. I can say that the matte black of the bottle does give a basalt kinda vibe. If you're on the look out for a new fragrance, I'd definitely recommend checking it out next time you're travelling or at Myer or DJ's.

I went just three weeks after it launched, and it was already buzzing yet felt intimate enough for a date night or a group celebration. Set inside the beautifully restored Whiteman's Arcade, the space combines heritage character with modern art-filled style. The menu, crafted by ex-Quay chef Jason McQueen, leans modern Australian with Japanese touches, celebrating local produce and wood-fire flavours. We over-ordered, deciding that two mains plus a side of a giant sashimi platter was perfectly reasonable (and honestly, no regrets). Every dish that came out was on point, with tender cuts from their own cattle farm and beautifully fresh seafood. Honestly, for anyone in the area looking for something genuinely special, Argyle House is well worth booking.

We visited on a Friday evening and ended up staying for three hours. The place was buzzing with groups of colleagues after work, staff mingling with guests, and a clear sense of community. Co-owners Eduard and Julie gave us the full experience – a distillery tour next door (Otter Craft Distilling), personalised cocktail recommendations, and stories about the business of whiskey making, all in a completely unpretentious manner. Speaking of cocktails, the drinks menu at Bar 26 is a cocktail lover's dream – imaginative, layered, and a perfect reflection of their in-house distillery. Here's the cocktails we tried: Truffle Porter Flip – A decadent blend of OCD Single Malt, truffle, walnut, whole egg, and barrel-aged imperial porter. – A decadent blend of OCD Single Malt, truffle, walnut, whole egg, and barrel-aged imperial porter. Persian Ramos – It featured their Mary St Citrus Gin, pistachio cream liqueur, rose, saffron, curaçao, lemon, egg white and soda. Floral, sweet and citrusy. – It featured their Mary St Citrus Gin, pistachio cream liqueur, rose, saffron, curaçao, lemon, egg white and soda. Floral, sweet and citrusy. Tiramisu Martini – The night ended on a high with this dessert-in-a-glass, blending Mary St Coffee Liqueur, OCD Cocoa Vodka, wattleseed, tonka bean and dulce de leche. To eat, Eduard's handmade pizzas were standouts – the Garlic Prawn was a showstopper, and the Nduja, capsicum and goat's cheese brought a perfect heat. Bar 26 doesn't try too hard – and that's its charm. It's thoughtful, unpretentious, and built on real passion. A spot you'll want to stumble upon again and again.

Safe to say, things are a little bit hectic right now. The great humans at Man of Many as well as a group of my close friends both gifted me vouchers to 'The Dinner Ladies' and it has just been such a huge help. It's not just about the delicious food that is super easy to prepare (normally just whack it in the microwave situation), it's about taking a mental load off whilst you are juggling two kids. It's one less task required and a metaphorical exhale amongst the chaos. If you know someone who could use a break for any reason at all, I'd highly recommend using this service.

Every piece feels feather-light yet looks runway-ready. My top pick is the Mesh Full-Zip Track Jacket, where sheer mesh floats over sweat-wicking WovenAir to deliver airflow with structure. Unlined mesh sleeves dial up the breathability, while the relaxed cut, ribbed trims and two-way zip are perfectly detailed. Mostly recycled fibres keep the eco-credentials strong, and the all-black palette slides effortlessly from a morning coffee run to a quick workout. Close behind is the Layered Mesh Linerless Short 8″. Nash's signature seam lines and contrast mesh panels give the shorts real visual depth, and the same WovenAir base keeps things cool, dry and comfortable in the nether regions. While the eight-inch inseam lands just on the knee for a stylish, relaxed fit, complemented by an inside-or-out drawcord and discreet together or separately, these monochrome techwear staples move smoothly from intense training to laid-back living.

A beauty writer's guide to the best perfumes for spring: including new-in fragrances I can't stop wearing
Spring doesn't just call for a wardrobe refresh – it's the perfect time for a scent shake-up, too. I'm packing away the heavy, wintery ouds and musks, and reaching for perfumes that feel like sunshine in a bottle: think juicy citrus, soft florals and crisp sea salt notes. Luckily, there are plenty of new seasonal releases that tick all of my boxes and mirror the bright and breezy springtime vibes. Whether you're after floral and feminine or fruity and fresh, here are seven of the best to shop now. The seven best spring scents to shop now Cos Fleuriste Eau de Parfum High-street hero Cos has just launched its first fragrance line, which, like everything else it sells, is fantastic. For spring, I'm shopping Fleuriste: a floral and bright scent energised with bright Hesperides and balanced with musky and woody undertones. £75 Shop Phlur Rose Whip Eau de Parfum Like a perfume that packs more of a punch? This new scent by Phlur is a heavier take on spring florals with rose and blackcurrant, and base notes of amber and musk. Wear it on your next date night – it's super seductive. £99 Shop Discothèque Sweat, Tears, Paradise Eau de Parfum Cult favourite brand Discothèque is loved by celebs like Kate Moss and Madonna, specialising in fragrances that smell like infamous nightclubs. For spring, I'd shop its Sweat, Tears, Paradise perfume: inspired by Mykonos' clifftop Cavo Paradiso, there's samphire, sea salt and mimosa that'll transport you to the beach. £96 Shop Jo Malone Beach Blossom Cologne This limited edition Jo Malone scent has beauty editors raving. It's summery (coconut water) but not too sweet, balanced with fresh lime and mint, and deepened with tonka bean. It has impressive staying power and is one I'll definitely be taking on holiday. £86 Shop Byredo Blanche Absolu de Parfum I'm a huge fan of Byredo's uber-fresh Gypsy Water, along with pretty much every other influencer on social media. But its new Blanche formula might just tempt me: initial musky intensity gives way to a strong floral heart with punchy black pepper. Think of a warm, crisp spring day. £190 Shop Who Is Elijah Ocean Eyes Eau de Parfum This fragrance by Sofia Richie's go-to brand smells like 'sun, sweat and sex, in the best way'. In layman's terms, that's grapefruit, orange, sea water and juniper over a base of musk and amberwood. It's basically the beach in a bottle and I'm obsessed. £105 Shop
