Neroli Extrait vs Neroli Portofino Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This is a truly exquisite neroli, a proper masterpiece of fresh, bright elegance despite some quibbles about its performance. Roja doves always gets the ingredients right. The catch? It's discontinued, making it a rare, sought-after treasure for neroli fanatics.
Copycat's Neroli Portofino leans harder into the bright citrus opening of Tom Ford's Riviera classic, pushing bergamot and mandarin louder while the neroli-musk drydown stays thinner and fades faster than the original's rich, sun-warmed skin-scent finish.
