Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tom Ford Azure Lime Oil
A refreshing lime-forward scent that's perfect for casual and office settings, offering a modern take on citrus fragrances.
Statement
Our Verdict - Neroli Portofino Forte EDP
Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino Forte is divisive but adored by its fans. It's pitched as the 'better' or 'stronger' sibling of the original, but some don't see the fuss, pointing to its linear nature and hefty price tag. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with little in between.

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its fresh, clean, and uplifting character makes it versatile for most casual and daytime settings, including sport. While some find it too potent for the office, its moderate projection keeps it from being overwhelming when applied sparingly. The underlying leather gives it a touch of sophistication that could work for a date, but its strong citrus leans away from formal events.
