Neroli Portofino Acqua Tom Ford 2016

When I first smelled this fragrance in a perfumery in Munich, I thought to myself: Wow ... this fragrance reminds me of something I know. I asked the consultant if she had a comparable fragrance (since the fragrance was very expensive for the small quantity), but after some attempts of the lady I noticed that there was no comparable one. So I decided for the fragrance.

I still don't regret the purchase. The scent smells very fresh summery, when I smell it I immediately think of my childhood by the sea in Italy (it was beautiful) .

I tested the fragrance almost daily for 1-2 months. What bothered me was that I didn't get any compliments for the scent at first. At the beginning I didn't know why, because everyone I had consciously shown the scent to, liked the scent very much. But not other people's. But after some time it became clear to me. The fragrance is discreet, it is not particularly noticeable. It smells very fresh and pleasant, but it is not a fragrance that takes centre stage. And that's the only contra point on the scent. Everyone knows the feeling when you are approached and someone tells you: "boah, they smell but good". That only happens with this fragrance when you hug someone or come closer.

So all in all, I still love this fragrance. I find in unique and from the smell simply only very summery, pleasant and great.
If he had a stronger presence so he would smell stronger he would be for me a smooth 10/10.
