Neroli Portofino: Trendsetting Good Vibes Cologne

Neroli Portofino by Tom Ford
Citrus Aromatic
Rodrigo Flores-Roux

Neroli Portofino, is a classic from 2011, a typical male-style cologne with a presence and lasting power. It is hefty on bergamot, lavender, orange blossom, neroli and ambrette. It is hard to find someone who dislikes it on a man. Me being a cheerleader of citrus aromatics on women, I naturally adore this scent. I bought my travel size in March, and now we have the beginning of April and I am almost done. The juice is in a gorgeous turquoise bottle and there have been many more with different nuances released since. I think Costa Azzura, Mandarino di Amalfi are popular, to name a few.

I enjoy wearing Neroli Portofino. It gives good vibes and is elegant but let’s face it, the price is decadent. How much would you spend on a stylish cologne? What is the price for one wear? Look for deals on discount shops or second hand bottles from fellow crazy perfume enthusiasts. Although the fragrance is wonderful, I am not going to splash my hard earned cash on a big bottle retail. I am fine with my travel. When it is gone, it is gone forever.
