Maison Alhambra Pacific Blue EDP Unisex 2.7 Fl Oz

This smells like Tom Ford's Portofino Aqua. Great dupe and it last longer than the original , I am a woman and I love this fragrance for summer . I feel this is a unisex fragrance.

Madison Alhambra Portofino Neroli is a beautifully crafted fragrance that transports you straight to the Mediterranean coast. The scent opens with a burst of fresh citrus and neroli, creating a vibrant and refreshing first impression. As it settles, the fragrance reveals a soft floral heart, balanced with subtle herbal notes that add depth and complexity.What I love most about this fragrance is its light and airy character, making it perfect for warm weather or when you want to feel refreshed and invigorated. It’s versatile enough for both casual daywear and more sophisticated evening occasions. While it’s not the longest-lasting fragrance, I find that reapplying throughout the day keeps the scent alive and enjoyable.

bought this after i looked at the notes on fragrantica and reviews on here and thought why not give it a try? well, i was not dissapointed to say the least; the fragrance is very citrusy upon first spray and that scent lingers for a quite a long time, but after a few hours it dries down to this sweet but very gentle white floral smell with a hint of citrus; makes very wearable for the summer. And, the fragrance lasts HOURSS (sprayed it at 7:00am and i could still smell it at around 5:00pm ish) The only downsides to this is i kind of did notice a synthetic citrus smell, like a lemon scented handsoap or even a febreeze type of synthetic upon the first few sprays but then it didnt bother me all that much, the citrus smell is also VERY strong; not strong where it will fill up a room but rather it smells like you rubbed your arms (or wherever you put your perfume) with lemons, which i guess can be bothersome to people looking for more complex perfumes. Price is AMAZING for this fragrance as well; very affordable and worth it at its price. And although it is marketed as unisex, it lacks the musk that balances the feminine and masculine scents; so if you’re a guy that likes more “manlier/musky” scents but want to try out unisex fragrances, this one i wouldn’t recommend; although it is not overly feminine, it also isn’t the most neutral. One last thing; it is a VERY gorgeous bottle in person (ofc its a mimic of tom ford fragrances but still, very well done on the design and AMAZING atomizer, even better than some of these $100+ fragrances) Also sticks to your skin like oil which makes it feel very silky /pos.TL;DRPerfume is long lasting & smells of citrus that then dries down to a sweet, gentle white floral with a hint of citrus.Somewhat synthetic smell & not complex; may not suit everyone’s taste.Unisex but more feminine; lacks musk and may not suit a man as well depending on fragrance.Beautiful Bottle & AMAZING atomizer; makes perfume feel like silk when it hits your skin.Fantastic price for what its qualities.All-in-all; 8.5/10 or 4/5 stars; not disappointed at all and would probably buy again.

This arrived today and I LOVE it. Now, I can't speak for longevity yet (will update), but I can't stop smelling my arm. I've never smelled the Tom Ford version and I don't need to. When I spend real money on fragrance, it's on the ones you can't find clones for, such as Nishane and D.S. & Durga. Lattafa, and by extension Maison Alhambra, is a stellar perfume house with a lot of bang for the buck. So this review is not a comparison of the two. That being said, the absolutely gorgeous packaging and bottle color put a smile on my face immediately. In sniffing the sprayer I instantly thought "orange Pez candy..." which is nostalgic, but not how I want to walk around smelling as a grown-ass woman. Fortunately the perfume on my skin is not "orange Pez," but also not NOT orange Pez-zy to a certain degree. What is most forward however is the delicious orange blossoms I have been hunting for. Most orange blossoms fragrances I can find in OR out of my current budget are eau de toilettes, and I'm not into spending money on something I can smell for an hour. Either I have a very unsophisticated nose or this fragrance is extremely well-blended, however, because I am not picking out any of the individual notes described in the listing. What I DO smell is orange blossoms, fresh orange ice cream, orange groves, sunshine and beach air in a slightly cool Florida spring. This is love for me. I'm very, very happy with this buy.Now, about fun with layering: Another recent buy is Derek Lam Rain Day, promoted as a fresh, aquatic orange blossom-and-vetiver scent. Combining with that doubles the orange blossoms and adds a more watery, spring rain feel. If you're looking for Caribbean vibes, Ard al Zaafaran's Turab al Dhahab is a delightful coconut fragrance with faint touches of lime. This one layers well with citrus, floral, and gourmand fragrances (although I rarely wear it on its own). You could probably also pair it with something chocolatey or dry woods for darkness and depth. Nest's Cocoa Woods comes to mind, although I haven't tried combining them yet.
