Término o frase en italiano: beauty uomo
I'm translating a list of leather items, one of which is "beauty uomo in vera pelle". I would usually translate "beauty" with "vanity case", but I have some doubts as to whether this would be suitable for a man, doubts which are confirmed by the unconvincing hits I get googling the term. Any ideas? Sarah.

Che meraviglia! Reading all your answers has given me a good laugh to start the day on the right foot.... doesn't happen often :-). What strange creatures men are aren't they!? (As you can't see me, before I offend someone, I'd better explain that I'm rolling round the floor with affectionate laughter when I write those words). After much indecision, I chose this one as it somehow seems to sound best in the context. Thanks to you all, Sarah.

I'm not sure I'd really want a man with a vanity case although at least it would probably mean he would have his own tweezers ...

Coincido JoannaM: think i prefer this out of all of them - Italian men do in fact call it their 'beauty case', bless them..........it is wider than a shaving kit.

"necessaire" is probably not macho enough but just came to mind ...
