Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Man Ice
A blast of icy citrus and crisp apple, Man Ice is the ultimate hot weather pick - invigorating, ultra-fresh, and never cloying. Effortlessly stylish, though fleeting, it’s a prime grab-and-go summer scent for men.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Guess Amore Portofino
A sweet, fresh citrus that leans masculine for many, Amore Portofino is a pleasant, safe reach. It's often praised for its unique blend of notes, yet let down by inconsistent performance reports, making it a budget-friendly option for daily wear rather than a showstopper.

Season and Occasion Fit

Man Ice

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The sharp citrus and fresh fruity opening make this extremely well suited to spring and summer, providing a cooling effect. It lacks the depth and warmth for winter, but can work in early fall as a crisp daytime scent.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Sport

Its light, clean, non-intrusive projection is ideal for the office and casual wear, and the sparkling citrus is a natural fit for sporty, outdoor, or daytime occasions. It lacks the complexity and presence for formal evening settings.

Guess Amore Portofino

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

This scent is a fantastic everyday fragrance for casual settings, including the gym or office, due to its fresh and generally inoffensive character. Its moderate sillage and variable longevity mean it's unlikely to be overpowering indoors but won't make a huge impact on a formal night out.
