Portfolio Neroli Canvas

OK, reviews using "synthetic" and "packaging is "cheap" are not doing you any favors. Here is my blunt review. Scent: 10/10 for a Neroli Portofino Inspiration. If you want a 4711 or Neroli Portofino copy that will last and project for more than an hour, here you go. It is 95 percent copy. The term "synthetic" is throw around word. You have to understand perfumery and why something like Neroli Portofino only lasts about an hour for a $$$ ton of money. I think that purchasing this fragrance for honouring Tom Fords Neroli Portofino for an affordable price is a safe option (dare I say, smarter?). Bashing it for not being a 100 percent copy and slapping synthetic or "lemon pledge" as a review is dishonest, unreasonable and just a useless opinion for anyone looking to purchase. If you want a better alternative that doesn't have the lasting power but is also just as close as NP, Artisan Pure is a good alternative. I think this frag checks the boxes im looking for. Performance: 10/10 for a citrus freshie I sprayed on clothes at 515 am and its now 2 19pm and it smells like 4711. It does what I want it to do at an affordable price. Beats going through Neroli portofino and your bank account.

A more affordable alternative to Tom Ford Neroli Portofino EDP? Side by side. In the opening you can notice subtle differences between the two, AH NC seemingly more greener creamer and stronger and TF NP more citrusy. However, on the dry down albeit again with subtle differences, they are "almost" indistinguishable but TF wins on opening due to that more noticeable juicy citrus opening and the dry down is also preferable. Initially, Neroli Canvas is more oily on the skin but that eventually dries down, it does have better projection, silage and longevity which is an added bonus over TF I dislike the tacky presentation box it comes in, its all so oversized, outdated and so unnecessary. AH NC value for money? If i compare it over TF NP EDP price tag, then yes. However, its still expensive considering it seems a clone and there's much more affordable ones on the market especially Perfume Parlours Neroliz Portofeenos that is almost indistinguishable from TF NP on the dry down and at a fraction of the price worth sampling and could be the only clone alternative to TF NP that you need and is a better performer. Good Luck on your quest.

After a year of dreaming about this fragrance I’ve been finally able to buy it for a normal price (€64). As long as I can remember it went for around €150 for a long time, that’s just too much. In the meantime I’ve bought the Alhambra Porto Neroli version of this scent, liked it but it’s too weak. This one costs 4 times as much. Is it worth it? Absolutely YES! This is like Layton and Layton Exclusif. Neroli Portofino on steroids. This clone has more depth and it is niche category. Even the packaging. I usually don’t care about it, manufacturers should in fact try to reduce waste but this thing has a stellar presentation. From a fresh scent, this is unexpected. I won’t go into detalis about the smell, the OG 4711, the TF version and all the clones share the same DNA. Don’t blind buy, also don’t be afraid to try this. If you decide to get a bottle, be aware of the normal prices. Maximum I would pay for this is €100.

Haven't tried TF Neroli Portofino, so no idea if its similar. However as a standalone neroli scent this one's spectacular. An excellent freshie with prominent neroli and well balanced with the musk which creates the long lasting effect. Reminds me of the crisp dry cleaned suits my father used to get from the laundromat. An exceptional scent for the office and for a day out. I can use this when i don't feel like respraying during the day as it easily last 7 to 8 hours. Strangely i found it to be expensive at the official Al Haramain outlets (USD 140), however got a great deal on Fragrance X for USD 59. All seasonal scent? Very much so, except won't reach for it during the winter Unisex? Not to my nose, a bitter fresh neroli scent Performance? Longevity of more than 8 hours and even longer on clothes, projection strong for at least 4 hours.

One of the most expensive clones, dupes or "inspired" fragrances I've ever purchased but also ONE OF THE BEST! It doesn't only match TF Neroli Portofino in almost every department but beats it hands down in longevity and projection. I'm experiencing at least 9-10 hours staying power with STRONG projection for at least 4-5 hours which is considerably, CONSIDERABLY more than the original TF. In short it's TF Neroli Portofino with a rocket up it's arse. I was a little hesitant to spend £90 for a 75ml dupe but curiosity got the better of me and it did not disappoint. Presentation box and bottle design is high-end but it was the quality of the fragrance which will blow you away. Not sure about reformulations comments in the reviews below but gladly I didn't experience those issues.

I’m a neroli maniac and own many neroli perfumes. The fragrance that first got me into neroli was Neroli Portofino. However, there was a problem—it had very weak longevity and poor projection. This particular perfume is indeed similar, but it has a stronger citrus freshness and bitterness, making it feel more masculine. Especially during the first 30 minutes, it’s like a citrus bomb with a somewhat artificial scent. As time goes on, these elements fade, and it settles into a soapy and mellow scent, much like Neroli Portofino. And probably, out of all the neroli perfumes I own, this one lasts the longest. It’s a truly wonderful fragrance. As a result, it is better value and quality than Neroli Portofino. Must buy for Neroli Lovers.

My word. This is incredible. That presentation in a leather magnetic case with a velvet bag? Peak luxury. Price isn't even that horrible, about $58USD after shipping and tax from Jomashop. The juice itself though smells like summer in a bottle. Gives me the same sensation as Bvlgari Wood Neroli, with a hint of lemony-sweetness. Kind of like a Froot Loops smell, in the best way. Extremely strong as well. I get about 10 hours of longevity and about 4 hours of really strong projection off of my wrists. I would absolutely recommend this over something like Neroli Portofino purely because of the price and the strength. I also feel like this has the same scent as something like 4711 or Neroli Portofino. Love this one. A lot.

Don't listen to the snobby naysayers, this stuff is better smelling and better performing than TFNP. I have both and trust me, TF is a waste of money since it only lasts for about an hour. Don’t be turned off by the somewhat sharp opening because it quickly turns into a stronger version of TF Neroli Portofino. I own both and would definitely recommend this over TF. TFNP wasn't worth the money since it lasts an hour or two on skin. The drydown is a beautiful spring/summer fresh, soapy scent. It smells like youthful, clean, bright, sunny happiness in a bottle. Paid about $100 for 2.5 oz back in 2021 but prices have come down. As a clone it's very accurate to the TF and well worth the money.

This is a very nice Neroli fragrance i love Neroli and i always tried to find a fragrance that is Neroli based but also long lasting and with great sillage. Neroli Canvas has it both. Its start may not be so great but after 3 - 5 minutes you will understand that this is the Juice you were waiting. Its an elegant spring summer parfume that is great for going out day/night. The scent is not complex but its uplifting and makes me feel happy and energetic, i really love it and is in a much better price than other Neroli parfums. Also is within a great package for those who this matters. Scent: 10/10 Sillage: 7/10 Longevity: 8/10 Price: Ok

Fresh citric flowers! I was looking for a day, spring, summer scent. Neroli Canvas has a very pleasant, natural citrus flavor. I also get the neroli. Imagine the flower of an orange tree. Hard to describe, but pleasant and mild. Seems office safe. Projection and performance is great for being a citric fragrance. I do not get the oily sensation someone else mentioned. Do not blind buy a full bottle unless you know and like neroli. @RafoRH John Varvatos Artisan Pure opens very lemony citric, almost like an air freshener, and then calms down to a savory beach smell. It feels more artificial. I prefer Neroli Canvas a lot more!

I liked this perfume too much, i recommend it to be used in summer and hot days. It is smell very nice and real authentic smell, can not smell alcohol when you apply. The perfume packaging and atomiser are excellent. It is last longer than Tom Ford Neroli Portofino, smell better quality and it cost much less than TF NP (1/3 of the price). I agree that it is not very cheap, but if you will compare the price with the high quality ingredients, i can say it is worth the money. Projection 2+ hrs (while TF not more than 1 hr) Longevity 8+ hrs (while TF not more than 4 hrs) I can give this perfume rating 10/10 ...

I received a sample of this when I ordered my bottle of L'Aventure. I had been lusting over Acqua di Parma Essenza, and was about to pull the trigger on a bottle of that when it arrived. It stopped me in my tracks. I'm a big fan of neroli, which this has in abundance. It was so fresh and clean that I immediately started searching for a bottle. Longevity is decent, but far from beast mode. I still get 6+ hours. Sillage is moderate, but I haven't worn it in very hot weather yet so I can't speak as to how it will perform then. It's pricier than the better know Al Haramain fragrances, but it really is a gem.

Came across Tom Ford Neroli Portofino. Smelled great. Checked for it online. Saw a review comparing Al Haramain Portfolio Neroli Canvas to it. Reviews on Youtube said Neroli Canvas outperformed Neroli Portfolio. Blind bought it. I would say it's my favorite fragrance now. I wanted something soapy, so was drawn to vetiver scents, which led me to Creed Vetiver, which led me to Neroli Portofino, which led me to Neroli Canvas. When becomes skin scent, the neroli becomes more prominent, but lasts long on my skin. I also own Mugler Cologne. I can't say which I like more. I think I will always now own both.

i was skeptical about this one coz its not cheap being a Haramain Fragrance in Bangladesh. 150 USD almost for 75 ml, but guys trust me, this is AMAZING if you like Neroli, I have tried neroli Portofino and own Neroli Sauvage, bright neroli, versace pour homme, 4711 and mugler cologne...nothing comes close to this one, BEAST MODE performer and it projects like nobody's business, the packaging is unreal....you get great value for your money, 75 ml will last you many years as you need only 1 spray to make it project and last. avoid the TF NP, get this instead... well done Haramain 15/10 for no weakness

Smells like neroli white soap. Thats it. Neroli is probably the best floral note - soapy and lemony, not too feminine. And this one is perfected quality, best performance rated neroli frag by far. Fewer sprays needed will compensate for smaller bottle but still relatively expensive. I am going to assume they make smaller bottles because its expensive to produce and they are trying to fit a lower price bracket by reducing size instead of concentration. Wouldnt buy a full bottle unless I figure out a 10/10 layering combo. I just dont see it as a standalone fragrance for myself.

Refreshing zesty fresh lemon scent. The bright and strong neroli brings back nostalgic memories from fresh laundry being dried outside in the summer, whilst drinking a freshly squeezed fizzy lemonade. Great scent, great projection and longevity, whilst being far cheaper than the higher end ripoff western versions. To me this is one of the best fresh perfumes ever and I prefer it over Neroli Portofino, this lasts and projects and has a strong Neroli/Citrus combo which I love, personally. Notes: Neroli - Citrus - White Floral Scent: 10/10 Projection: 8/10 Longevity: 8/10

First and foremost, it is beautifully presented, quite impressive, with a case inside a box. It's a classic neroli scent with a soapy, clean feel. In terms of performance, it projects moderately and lasts several hours (about 8h) on skin, and much longer if it falls on clothes. Highly recommended for neroli lovers (which I am). This is an excellent fresh citrus and white flower perfume. Good for hot climates and during Summer, as it does not suffocate. It is more masculine and less unisex. For the price, it is excellent value for the money. Love at first sniff for me.

Wonderful stuff. Clean and refreshing, smells rich and expensive. I don't get any of the suntan lotion vibe that some find in this. Just lovely citrus and white florals. Definitely a dupe of Neroli Portofino, only with improved projection and much better longevity. These days it's available on eBay for $49, a pretty amazing bargain IMO. I have two others from Al Haramain's Portfolio series; all three exhibit similar performance. Completely different scent profiles, but the strength & longevity are comparable.

I just got a bottle from FragranceX for 54£, I just can wait to smell it, will update when parcel will arrive. Update, perfect scent for summer, for office, for gym. Longevity: 5/5, 7hrs+ very good for fresh scent. Projection/sillage: 4/5, will project nice for about 2hrs, after that becomes just a skin scent. Price: 5/5, I've paid 54£/75ml, presentation and bottle looks amazing. I do recommend this frag but I wouldn't pay more than 70£/€/$. I can't wait for summer so I can wear it more often.

What a find... I got a good deal and went and bought it. The opening is crazy citrusy it's by far the most sharp freshie I have here for the first 15 minutes. Then for the next hour it's still intense and with a nice zing and a little bit bitter. For the dry down this citrusy vibe is toned down (but still there, 3 to 4 hours into the fragrance) but now it's soapy and super smooth. Not only I really like it having people say they like my perfume 7 hours into it is amazing.

I bought this because I tried tf npf and loved it and I LOVE zegnas Mediterranean neroli..but unfortunately the Tf npf just was like using bath and body on me..just died..so i tried this and wow..this stuff is awesome..incredible presentation and it really last about 3x longer then tfnpf ..it really is a gem..I actually bought their oud in same bottle which is also a stunner. This is one I couldn't be without in summer..especially when traveling. Just get it and enjoy!

Love at first sniff! This is summer in a bottle. At first it smells like straight sunscreen lotion, but it’s not overwhelming to me at all and I love that smell. After drying down for 20 minutes more citrus comes out. Smells like Tom Ford NP but this performs so much better and lasts twice as long for 1/4 of the price. Summer is my favorite season and I think I just found my new signature scent for the hot months! Definitely recommend for high heat!

For the discounted price I paid, this is an amazing fragrance. It's very similar to Neroli Portofino but is not as complex or beautiful as that fragrance. It does seem to last a long time for a fresh fragrance, though. And it smells better from arm's length than up close, where you can more easily discern that the quality of this fragrance can't match the Tom Ford. Overall, not bad. Oh, and the packaging is insane...worthy of a $400 fragrance!

I grew up dousing myself with 4711 cologne as a kid for formal events, its all I had in my house. For me this is nostalgic, but an amazing deal. You get this awesome, eternal blast of creamy neroli. Bottle is sleek and sexy, good atomizer, and this is one of the best value fragrances I own. If pure neroli is what you want that's what you're gonna get. Longevity and sillage is great, I can wear this for whatever.

This is a fresh, bright, floral, clean scent. Presentation is impressive (if that matters to you) and the longevity far outpaces TF. I love neroli, and the citrus and florals blend with that soapy clean vibe so well here. For the price I don't see any potential cons that would keep me from buying a backup bottle. Wore it in 97-degree heat yesterday and it performed beautifully.

Bought this because I love Tom Ford Neroli Portofino but can't justify the price. This is a really good stand-in... maybe a touch more floral than the Tom Ford from what I remember, but I love the way it smells. The presentation impressed me too. I've got no desire to chase down the Tom Ford anymore, this is staying in the rotation. Personal subjective score: 8.1/10

Love soapy clean Neroli and this is not just a bomb but a nuclear bomb. 2-3 sprays is all you need. More will become cloying very fast. This is impressive. I will definitely be trying other Al Haramain Portfolio fragrances. Knocks TFNP out of the park for performance. As a side note; a much more subdued alternative to this is Dunhill Icon. I own and love both.

THIS IS VERY GOOD. I mean the smell is very fresh and last longer than TF. Only downside is price, still it cost about half of TF, however overly packaging this nice perfume is unnecessary. Rather than focusing on packaging maybe it’s better to stick with a luxurious yet simple packaging and a 100ML bottle (yes, it’s only 75ml), I PAID $120 FOR THIS THING!

I went back to my old sample (2019 came with my l'aventure) and I don't think it was reformulated. I got a bottle this year and the neroli amber is there for the first two hours, and the slightly citrusy and bitter musk drydown is still there after 7 hours even how oily the fragrance is on the skin for the first 15 minutes is the same, so there's that.

Reminds me of growing up in Florida, where me and my friends would shove each other into the magnolia bushes on our walk back from school. This is green, floral, and citric in the best way. It's too natural to be sunscreen-y. Very happy with my purchase, can't wait to rock this one!

2nd review (just for the performance): I applied this around 5 pm, went out to a cafe, came back home and went for a run in weather of 42 deg celsius, came back home and took a shower and still could smell it on the back of my hand around 1 am! Holy Schmack!

the original is a masterpiece, al haramain has surpassed the master, 10 hours of longevity and 6 hours of projection, every time I wear it compliments arrive, thanks to tom ford and thanks to haramain, we can all afford to smell the scent of heaven

@sultan2000xx you are absolutely correct I had a bottle from 2 years ago and I do still have a little bit of juice in it I bought a new bottle and side by side the new one smells watered down from the old version

If you know what you want and you want something spot on for 4711 or Neroli Canvas that lasts 6hr + pull the trigger. Seriously. edit: This is similar to 4711 or mugler but the neroli is much sharper

A perfect ‘clean’ spring/summer scent. It’s about 95% similar to Neroli Portofino, just a bit more citrusy and green. Longevity is much better than NP, and quality for this price is excellent.

Compliment monster. Everyone who Ive given samples to says they get plenty of compliments. It a 10/10 with excellent village. I have not smelled the OG but this one does not disappoints.

Amazing scent! Clean and refreshing and definitely up there with the Prada Lhomme of the world... Great reactions and compliment factor... Was waiting for this scent to hit this site!

I've tried several, but Portfolio Neroli Canvas (Neroli Portofino) and Aqua Dubai (Imagination) are the best and only clones worth buying. Well done boys.

Loving this scent profile lately so naturally I had to get Neroli Canvas and I am not disappointed as it stays true to that scent profile but has some uniqueness as well ! I must have gotten the reformulated version as I did not get a super bitter and harsh opening but a bright,fresh laundry smell mixed with some rich amber to give this depth !! The opening in the batch I got was quite pleasant and also VERY POTENT. As this dries down it goes from being very rich and dense to more of the citruses and neroli popping out making this more light,airy and fresh but it does keep some of that rich amber making this more well rounded!! (Which was the opposite in Porto Neroli) I love the ambery take on this DNA as it makes it smell like very luxurious hotel soap and this does smell the most expensive out of all I’ve tried with the 4711 type Scent profile !!! Performance on this is also superior as this projects very well for 2-3 hours and lasts 12+ hours. (Also I sprayed this 5 hours before I was getting my apartment inspected before moving and the repair guy commented how good it smells in here😅) The only con id say is because it’s so strong it may not be as good for work or in small spaces as even 1 spray is very strong and unless neroli scents are very light they may cause some disturbances for sensitive noses. However, this is perfect for outside spring/summer events or events that may last a long time. If you want a work appropriate NP clone I’d go with Porto Neroli as it lasts all day but is less potent and more light and airy. (Of the 2 I’d say I like the smell of Porto Neroli better as it’s a bit more light and transparent but I do think Neroli Canvas is a more rich well rounded scent that performs better and will also be great all year round.) Overall rating-8.75 Even though I slightly prefer Porto Neroli I have to say the overall quality is better in Neroli Canvas and because of those 2 fragrances I’d say it’s absolutely redundant to own Neroli Portofino ( Me personally I thought it was only ok )

I ve have both, as well as TF Neroli Portofino, Mugler Cologne and Perfume Parlour oil. My comparison is: Winner - TF Neroli Portofino. 100% unisex, deep, complex with pretty good longevity for this type of fragrances. Downside - price. 2nd runner - Mugler Cologne. 100% unisex and complex. It is more of whispering type of fragrance, not too loud. It is delicate. I would say it has similarity with NP, but it is different for me. It is also pretty cheap. I think it is better for those who prefers French perfumery and lives in the countries where people do not pour perfume generously. 2nd runner shared - AH Neroli Canvas. It is almost the same as TF NP. Drydown is very very similar, projection and longevity seem comparable. It is a bit on the masculine side. However it leaves an oily film on the skin. Not the most pleasant feeling in the heat, when you did not get used to it. Probably its better who lives in the countries used to attars and more generously used perfumes, like Middle East. 3rd runner - Ferrari Bright Neroli. It is light, very well done. More on the feminine side. Projection and longevity can be better. But price is nice. I would not consider Perfume Parlour one, as I do not really appreciate the concept of what they are doing with dupes. Some of their dupes are very similar to originals, but they consistently miss base notes. Seems gas chromatograph can not determine them very well. I bought few bottles for research purposes only. The only thing I like in them is that they are producing copies of the discontinued fragrances and some of them are really really good.

Was given a sample of this with my purchase of L'aventure. Neroli Canvas is a strong, summery fresh fragrance bursting with neroli; it's quite a nice citrus smell. It's very unisex, perhaps leaning a touch more feminine than what I'm used to. I applied this on a day that was 30 degrees and I was travelling around a city on vacation. I think I got around 6 hours out of it before I needed to reapply; it might perform a little better on a less windy and less hot day. I could see this lasting 8+ if I were indoors. Projection was good too, I was fairly regularly getting strong wafts of it and my fiancee said she could smell it on me when she was up close. I've yet to try Neroli Portofino so I can't compare, but this one is great as it is. My only issues is price. If it were half the price I'd grab a full bottle, however, I don't feel like paying over $100 Canadian for a fragrance from a house mostly known for clones. If I wanted a clone of NP, I don't think I'd feel comfortable spending more than $50 and would likely search for others. Besides 4711 is less than $15 and sure it only lasts 30 minutes, but you can bring a decant with you and reapply Although I'm not a huge citrus freshie fan, I did like Neroli Canvas and thought it performed well. Not a must buy for me, but if the price sinks below $50 CAD I'll pick up a bottle

The scent is undeniably strong—its intensity is noticeable right from the start. Initially, it evokes a distinct summer vibe that feels both refreshing and nostalgic, reminiscent of the way my grandma’s laundry products smelled when I was younger. The fragrance is neither overtly masculine nor feminine, but it does seem to adapt to the person wearing it, creating a slightly different impression depending on your style and appearance. Personally, I prefer the scent of Tom Ford Neroli, but it doesn’t come close to the longevity or projection of Portfolio Neroli Canvas by Al Haramain. In my experience, the Al Haramain fragrance is at least five times stronger and far more long-lasting. It’s a true summer scent—I can’t imagine wearing it during any other season, and I’m not usually strict about seasonal fragrances. That said, I would only recommend purchasing it when it’s on sale. While it’s a good fragrance, I don’t find it particularly mass-appealing within the first hour of wear. The initial projection is bold and can be polarizing, but after an hour, it settles into something more subtle and “normal,” while still maintaining excellent projection. You’ll easily notice it on your skin for over a day.

Beautiful citrusy floral scent. Canvas leans more masculine than Neroli Portofino and also doesn't have the old lady white floral dry down that the latter has. Canvas starts off with nearly the same opening as Neroli Portofino but amped up 100x (nuclear projection). It keeps an almost stingingly strong, natural, lemony, neroli and sunscreen vibe for the first 3-6 hours before slowly mellowing down to a nice white floral cologne with hints of citrus to keep it masculine. This cologne easily lasts me 10-15 hours on my skin vs Portofino's 1-3 hours. This won't be a compliment magnet since it is a more niche type of citrusy fragrance in general however it is still a wonderfully refreshing scent for the daytime during the spring and summer. I would give it about an 8.7/10. I like it a lot, but I wouldn't say it wows or anything, much like Neroli Portofino, however if you like that DNA and want it with 10x the longevity, then Neroli Canvas is a great buy!

Truly blown away. Neroli Canvas wipes the floor with Neroli Portofino. The scent profile is damn near identical (there's no way anyone can distinguish the two in the air), the performance is like 3x that of the OG, and the price per ml is 4x lower. I can't see any reason to choose NP over NC. On the verge between 4 and 5 out of 5. However, since the scent profile itself is fairly straightforward and played out - arguably a tad outdated, too - a perfect score of 5/5 feels like stretching it. But if the classic Neroli air freshener profile is your cup of tea, then this is probably the second best option out there after Herbes Troublantes (or Dimanche a la Campagne, as it was called before).

Had this delivered today after I ran out of my TF NP last summer. With the warmer months on the horizon I am starting to get a few summer freshies. After the initial spray I thought " what the hell had I done, this is awful!" 45 minutes later, the "phew" landed. On the opening it reminded me of old ladies. Now I can see why everyone compares it to TF NP. I love NP and is my all time favourite summer scent with great memories attached to the smell, but like everyone else mentions, its a fast fleeting scent. Now if this does last like many have said (too early for me to say) then we are onto a winner.

Al Haramain's version of 4711 Original Eau de Cologne & Neroli Portofino. Your typical neroli scent. Fresh, green, sharp, a little citrusy, a hint of white floral accord. Clean & crisp, like a fresh aftershave from the 80s. Al Haramain has turned into a high end clone house. All their recent releases are high quality clones. The issue is, if calculate the price per millilitre, the prices are close that one might just get the original fragrance. Performance is excellent sillage & longevity. As I said, high quality clones. "Like" & pass as I'm not the biggest fan of neroli & this classic formula.

I had this Neroli bomb for a few months but haven't been using it (due season reasons). I applied it yesterday, more than 24hs ago. I don't know if it's the combination of temperature (around 20 celcius) and humidity or what, but i'm still getting the scent of this stuff from my skin (i applied it to my wrists). Holy F**ck. Still, i'm not so sure if it's something i will use a lot. being a unisex fragrance, its like this: 10 minutes, this is too feminine to my nose. another 10 minutes and this is masculine enough for me to use... I'm not sure i can really use it.

Received it recently and can't help doing a comparison right away, against Bvlgari Men Wood Neroli. Upside: PNC is an amp-up version of wood neroli with decent amt of tea note. Nothing cheapy as far as scent profile is concern. Dry down soapiness is really strong Downside: Over packaging alert! Though elegantly designed, the large box & leather-ish case inside, are way too large to contain a 75ml bottle. BTW the leather-ish purse inside the box is cute & lovely Al Haramain should consider selling a 150-200ml bottle of this same juice with same size packaging

This is more vibrant than N.P as the bergamot and the petitgrain is ramped-up and makes this more juicy, zingy with a mouth-watering bitter citrus peel zest. The opening is way more sparkling, alive and spicier. N.P now feels a little lack-lustre in comparison. Overall it’s a beautiful composition with tons of life-affirming, dazzling citrus oomph. It mellows at the dry-down but keeps it’s uplifting neroli freshness. It’s way better than N.P but not a patch on Profumum Roma’s ultimate and stunning ‘Neroli’ creation.

When i first bought this last year, i wasnt a fan at all. I was wondering if i made a bad decision. After letting it settle and coming back to it because its been very hot here in Cincinnati the last few days, i am now a fan of it. I layered it with DG Light Blue forever just to see what i would get, and wow im not disappointed with the mixture of the neroil, grapfruit, lemon and bergamot...walking citrus bomb... i will be on the beach in Florida in July and will def layer the two again..
