Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Porpora Eau de Parfum
A divisive yet undeniably potent rose-incense powerhouse, Porpora is an 'of-its-kind' statement. Some say it's an improved version of a well-known classic, others a 'loud and obnoxious' imitation. Either way, expect to be noticed.

Our Verdict - There's a Place Eau de Parfum
Francesca Dell'Oro's "There's a Place" is a seriously classy, sophisticated rose that sidesteps any 'granny' or 'girly' tropes. It's an astounding, confident gem that whispers elegance rather than screams, earning it universal praise for its refined character.

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage mean Porpora is too potent for most office environments. However, its bold and sensual rose-incense profile makes it perfect for date nights and formal events, particularly in cooler weather. It's a statement scent, not for casual wear.
