Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Porthole EDP
This is a love-it-or-hate-it tropical powerhouse. While many adore its juicy, salty fruitiness, some find it veers into 'body odour' territory. Definitely sample before committing.

Our Verdict - Loophole EDP
Loophole is Alexandria UK's take on Loumari's niche hit Porthole, trading the original's layered pineapple-caramel warmth for a louder, flatter fruity-salty splash that fades faster but nails the beach-holiday opening for a fraction of the price.

Season and Occasion Fit

Porthole

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Sport

Its potent projection and tropical, fruity profile make it less suitable for a formal office setting. However, its refreshing and energetic character, coupled with good longevity, is perfect for casual outings, dates, and especially active summer days.
