Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Neroli Portofino EDP
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.

Our Verdict - Rebel Riviera EDP
Rebel Riviera nods to Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino, but swaps its photorealistic neroli-and-lavender clarity for a sweeter apple-peach-coconut spin. Where the original stays crisp and soapy-clean, Rebel Riviera reads more like a fruity beach cologne, and its short couple-of-hours run is even briefer than the original's already-criticised longevity.
