Fleur de Portofino

Which Should You Buy?
A modern classic that’s gone too soon. L'Eau Couture is a masterclass in creamy orange blossom and green almond, a sophisticated crowd-pleaser that manages to be fresh yet comforting. A true shame it's discontinued.
Tom Ford's Fleur de Portofino is a polarising Mediterranean dream: some find it a gorgeous, uplifting floral with impressive longevity, while others dismiss it as an overpriced, generic scrubber with awful performance. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
With its elegant profile and surprising longevity, L'Eau Couture is versatile. It's sophisticated enough for a date night but equally at home for a casual brunch; however, its good projection makes it less ideal for a very conservative office setting.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, white floral character makes it perfect for casual daytime wear and romantic dates, evoking a 'luxury vacation' feel. However, its significant sillage for some wearers, alongside criticisms of poor longevity for others, makes it less ideal for office settings where subtlety is preferred.
