Which Should You Buy?
Neroli Portofino is a classic summer fragrance that divides opinion. Some appreciate its Mediterranean freshness, others balk at the high price relative to its fleeting performance. It's an aromatic ode to a seaside holiday with invigorating citrus notes, yet struggles to justify its cost for many due to weak longevity.
688 captures the sunny citrus-neroli character that made Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino a summer favourite, though the real perfume's Amalfi-coast radiance and lasting sillage are traded here for a lighter, quicker-fading oil that suits close, personal wear rather than a room-filling scent.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
The fresh citrus and floral notes and moderate performance make it suitable for casual wear and daytime dates, offering an elegant but not overly formal aura. Its short-lived sillage and moderate longevity mean it might lack the impact needed for formal occasions or sports.
Seasons
The sparkling citrus-neroli character is a natural fit for warm weather, peaking across spring and summer.
Occasions
Light and clean enough for the office and casual wear, with enough charm for a relaxed daytime date.
