Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Pacific Blue
This budget-friendly freshie is a wildly divisive summer scent. It's either a zesty, clean, sun-kissed sensation or a straight-up blast of lemon floor cleaner. You'll either love its cheerful energy or bin it after one sniff.

Our Verdict - Portofino
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Tom Ford Neroli Portofino (2013) - neroli, rosemary and amber translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
