Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mandarino di Amalfi EDP
A stunning citrus freshie that perfectly captures the Mediterranean dream, Mandarino di Amalfi is adored by many for its uplifting vibe. However, its eye-watering price point and sometimes fleeting longevity is a sore spot for others, creating a love-it-or-hate-it dynamic.

Our Verdict - Citrus Splash EDP
Citrus Splash is inspired by Tom Ford's Mandarino di Amalfi, a citrus-mint blast. It borrows the multi-citrus opening and herbal heart, but adds a heavier labdanum-musk base to extend performance, trading a bit of the original's zesty transparency for longer-lasting warmth.
