Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mandarino di Amalfi EDP
A stunning citrus freshie that perfectly captures the Mediterranean dream, Mandarino di Amalfi is adored by many for its uplifting vibe. However, its eye-watering price point and sometimes fleeting longevity is a sore spot for others, creating a love-it-or-hate-it dynamic.

Our Verdict - Italian Fruit EDP
Italian Fruit shadows Tom Ford's Mandarino di Amalfi with its juicy citrus-and-herb sparkle. The crisp lemon-grapefruit opening and aromatic heart land well, though it dries down flatter and faster than the already light-wearing original.
