Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Amalfi EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Tom Ford Mandarino di Amalfi (2014) - mandarin orange, orange blossom and amber translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Our Verdict - Acqua di Gio Blue Edition Pour Homme EDT
If you're after the original Acqua di Gio in a snazzier bottle, this is your shout. The community's pretty split on whether it's truly identical or a subtle variation, but everyone agrees it's a classic aquatic. Don't expect to find it easily, though; it's a collector's item now.
