Portofino '97 is a citrus-woody eau de parfum from Victoria Beckham, built by perfumer Jérôme Épinette around Calabrian bergamot, black pepper, incense, amber, patchouli, musk and vetiver. It is genderless and leans fresh and bright up top, then warmer and skin-like as the amber and woods settle in. It suits people who want a clean, slightly smoky citrus scent rather than a sweet or heavy one. Against typical designer citrus fragrances it reads more artisanal and less sugary, and its ratings are strong.
