Tabac perhaps?
If he uses soaps but you want to try a cream, maybe some TOBS in a nice masculine scent like Eton College?
I know I am probably the only one that will say this, but I have before and will continue to recomment the Art of Shaving Sandalwood cream. http://www.theartofshaving.com/Shav...ng-cream&navid=shaving-products-shaving-cream
great lather, great masculine scent, and a little bit goes a long way.

Musgo Real. My father is near 70yo and loves it 
I wish happy b/day to your father, good health and prosperity (That's a Greek wish).

Thanks guys. Keep the suggestions coming. Please!!
... Enough said.
Penhaligon's. Great performance and scents. Id suggest the Opus 1870. Not available at the Pens site but amazon still has it.
Musgo Real is a great suggestion. Just pick the scent that you feel he would like the most.

Castle Forbes, Ultimate Comfort or any of the Queen Charlotte Soap creams.
Easy answer La Toja or La Toja Sensitive Shave Cream, Italian Barber has the 5oz Tube for $6.99. One of three Creams I continually use, the other two are AOS Rose (I'm on my last tub & it's discontinued) and LEA Professional (this is harder to find but comes in a huge 250ml Tube).
+1.
It's the only cream I use, and its the scent my gf demands when I actually get to see her. I gave my father the AOS Sandalwood set last year as a Father's Day/Birthday gift.

Thanks to everyone who has commented
I'd consider a great UK shaving cream for a luxurious gift. T&H and Castle Forbes immediately come to my mind.
I would say something like Taylor of Old Bond. I haven't used the other UK brands yet so I can't comment. I've had the same idea for my Dad but maybe a razor like a Parker 22R. My products are flooding the bathroom so he can use what he likes in terms of creams. Dunno if he's use it though, he doesn't seem impressed by my new hobby.
