Finding a great gift for a girl friend does not take longer than 20 minutes. Whether you are browsing through online shops, or you are milling around the department store. You can give a girl a dainty hair brush, a set of handkerchief, a lovely stuffed toy, engravable pens or an exquisite angel figurine, and she would accept it with a huge, sincere grin. Finding presents for a girl is fun, uncomplicated and rewarding. Nothing beats seeing the look on your girl friend's face as she opens your lovely, albeit cheap, gift.

Males, on the other hand, are a bit more complicated to please. If finding a present for a girl takes, at most, 20 minutes, finding a guy some gift will take nearly an entire day. Even finding something to engrave on engravable pens for males takes a lot longer. Whatever the occasion, whether it is Christmas, Valentine's day, birthdays or weddings, finding testosterone-friendly gifts can be quite an ordeal.

So, to ease up on your worries, here are five great gift ideas for the urban male. Before you browse any further through some online gift shoppe or head right down to the mall, better read this:

1. Perfumes

Choose perfumes with known brands, not the real cheap ones that seem like cologne mixed with water. Be careful in choosing this gift item, though, because the Internet is flooded with fake perfume brands. What are the most famous perfume brands among males? You can go for Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Clinique and Courvioser. With perfumes, you can not go wrong. Well, unless the recipient is allergic to perfumes that is. If so, you can always opt for pocket business card holders or a silver business card case.

2. Leather wallets

These are probably one of the most widely given gifts for males in the history of mankind. You can give your dad, your brother, your uncle, your boyfriend, your teacher, your grandfather and your kids leather wallets, and they will surely appreciate it. Finding a leather wallet is hassle-free. You can find tons of it in department stores or on the Web. Go for real leather -- these are a lot sturdier than the knock-offs. When shopping online, be sure to find a reliable online seller. When shopping in malls... well, it would be a lot easier since you could immediately tell if the wallet is real leather or not.

3. Engravable pens

The ever reliable engravable pens. This one ought to top the list. Engravable pens are actually more popular gift ideas than leather wallets. Engravable pens can be given to just about anyone -- any male that is. Find quality pens, such as Parker or Cross, just to make sure the engravable pen is extra special. Now for that harder part, what do you usually engrave on those pens? Names are a bit too common. Proverbs and inspirational quotes are way too cheesy for the male species. So what do you engrave on the pens? You could merely engrave one word which means something really special to the recipient. For instance, you can put in "Dad" on your dad's engravable pen.
