Scent

Do you know the land where the lemons bloom?

A balmy summer evening with a view of the Mediterranean Sea and Vesuvius; the last rays of sunshine are reflected in the horizon and the day quietly fades away, leaving a pleasant feeling of decreasing heat and a cool pinch of lightness.
Imagine this moment wrapped in a fresh, balsamic cloud of lemons, orange and fine spices...

Tom Ford Mandarino di Amalfi has been my absolute summer favourite for two years and he will remain so. As many have already stated in the previous comments, I also think that you can't create a citrus scent more perfect than this.
An expressive unisex scent that is equally good on both sexes and wraps the wearer in a summery fresh and spicy aura.
I can smell the lemons and basil most clearly.
Mandarino di Amalfi is perfect for hot, midsummer temperatures - a fragrance that practically hisses when sprayed on and lets you breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, however, it is very extraordinary and with "Wumms".
Whether work, leisure, sports or going out is irrelevant - this perfume is from 25 degrees just perfect for all occasions.

Even in winter I sometimes spray it on as a reminder of the warm season and when the heavy, sweet perfumes get too much for me.

For a summer scent, the durability and radiance is good with small smears.
In order to develop the full effect I dose it already very generously and that hurts unfortunately, if one thinks of the price league. This TF is by far the most expensive perfume in my collection.
In the EdP version, it already leaves a dented wallet, but I admit, for the perfect citrus-italy-flavored scent, I'll take that on board.
With the EdT I have concerns that it would be cheaper, but the intensity is disappointing.
The bottle is a dream, azure blue, stylish and heavy. Luxury and a highlight in every collection.

I will spend the current dog days with my "Tommy" before he goes into hibernation. Next year a new bottle is due anyway and that means for Tom Ford
"Fun costs".....
