What makes something beautiful is hard to explain — but humans seem to have an innate way to know beauty when they see it. From early stone tools to cave paintings and modern masterpieces, beauty has been a part of humanity since there were humans. But the broader question of why we find things beautiful and how that helped us to survive and evolve is an open one. Kurzgesagt looks at beauty, and the unexpected ways it influences us.

Machetes are useful outdoor tools capable of handling multiple jobs. They're also large. Gerber's DoubleDown folds up to roughly half its extended size, letting it fit easily in a bag. Its plain-edge blade is made from 420HC steel and has jimping on the back for baton use, such as splitting logs, a slight recurve for finer tasks, and an overstrike guard. It's held securely in place with a patent-pending 4 lock system that engages in three positions to ensure safe deployment and closure. Made in the USA, it arrives with a sheath that can be carried on a belt or MOLLE webbing.

Nothing beats a Neapolitan-style pizza cooked at home. Ooni's wood- and gas-powered ovens have been cranking them out for years. But not everyone has the space or setup to accommodate flames or burning fuels — so the Volt requires nothing more than an electrical outlet. Its innovative design works indoors and out, hitting temps of up to 850º in just 20 minutes and thus cooking gourmet 12-inch pies in as little as 90 seconds. A boost function can reheat the baking stone between cooks, while built-in temperature, time, and balance controls let you adjust for different pizza styles. The Ooni Volt 12 fits on standard kitchen counters and includes carry handles for easy transportation between the inside and outdoors, while its powder-coated carbon steel shell not only offers superior heat retention but also protects against the elements.

This smooth and seductive ultra-male oriental fougère captivates both men and women alike. Inspired by the vibrant revival of Lafayette Street — a historic thoroughfare weaving through iconic New York neighborhoods like Soho, Little Italy, and Chinatown—the fragrance embodies the energy of its surroundings. It opens with fresh bergamot, coriander, and floral notes, transitions to a heart of velvety ambroxan and rich vanilla, and finishes with lingering dry wood, tonka bean, cedarwood, and warm grey amber. Encased in a sleek, leather-textured bottle, Lafayette Street is a celebration of modern masculinity and a tribute to Bond No. 9's roots.

Vintage looks don't have to come with vintage pricing. Naval Watch Co.'s FRXE001 is proof. Inspired by classic dive watches, it has a 40.8mm stainless steel case, a rotating black diver bezel, and a clean black dial. Beige luminous paint on the markers and hands enhances the vintage look, as does the box-style acrylic lens. A Japan-made Seiko quartz movement helps keep the price down but features a sweep seconds hand for a more premium feel. The watch is set on a 3-link stainless steel bracelet, helping add to its everyday versatility.
John Carpenter isn't just a horror movie master — he's also a musician and composer. His theme from Halloween is a classic, and the film wouldn't be the same without that creepy music.
