Which Should You Buy?
A masterful citrus cologne with Italian soul - dazzling, airy, and utterly refreshing. Escale à Portofino is a sun-drenched breeze in a bottle, perfect for those craving effortless sophistication and authentic Mediterranean zest.
No.086 is Eden Perfumes' interpretation of Dior's Escale à Portofino, an intense citrus opening of bergamot and lemon that dries down to cedar and cypress. It is more one-dimensional than the layered Dior original but keeps the same sun-soaked Mediterranean freshness.
