Eden Perfumes No.086 Escale a Portofino is an Eau de Parfum. No.086 Escale a Portofino opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Cypress. Eden Perfumes's No.086 Escale a Portofino carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

No.086 is Eden Perfumes' interpretation of Dior's Escale à Portofino, an intense citrus opening of bergamot and lemon that dries down to cedar and cypress. It is more one-dimensional than the layered Dior original but keeps the same sun-soaked Mediterranean freshness.

About

No.086 opens with an intense, sharp blast of bergamot and lemon that lands close to fresh lime, immediately setting a bright citrus tone reminiscent of Dior's original Escale à Portofino. Petitgrain reinforces the green-citrus feel before orange blossom and juniper move in through the heart, softening the sharpness with a touch of floral warmth. The dry down brings cedar and cypress for a woody backbone, finished with a light musk that keeps the whole composition clean rather than heavy. Where the Dior original layers in almond and galbanum for extra depth and a longer-lasting green complexity, Eden's version is simpler and more linear, fading into a soft woody-citrus base sooner. Still, the sun-drenched Mediterranean character comes through clearly, making it a breezy, easy-to-wear option for anyone chasing that Riviera-holiday freshness without the designer price tag.
