Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blu Mediterraneo Fico di Amalfi EDT
Few scents capture Mediterranean sunshine like Fico di Amalfi. Crisp citrus, lush fig, and sheer woods create a breezy, life-affirming aura, perfect for anyone craving an easygoing, natural yet sophisticated signature.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Cool Carica EDP
Cool Carica trails Acqua di Parma's beloved Fico di Amalfi with its green fig and bright citrus. That Mediterranean-summer freshness lands well, and since the original is already short-lived, the dupe's skin-close wear feels true to type.
