Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Seville Genoa Water
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Neroli Portofino Acqua - a citrus fragrance led by Petitgrain, Lemon, Bergamot, with floral depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Neroli Portofino Acqua
A truly gorgeous citrus-neroli scent that evokes Mediterranean summers, let down by a performance that has many questioning the hefty Tom Ford price tag. If you want expensive sunshine in a bottle, and don't mind reapplying, this is for you.

Season and Occasion Fit

The citrus character is happiest in spring and summer - the freshness reads bright and clean in milder weather; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its citrus, floral signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.

Neroli Portofino Acqua

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile with very light projection makes it suitable for office wear and excellent for casual outings and sport. The fleeting nature prevents it from being a strong contender for formal events or dates where more lasting presence is desired.
