    I was given a sample and I liked Escale à Portofino, but I think its lack of uniqueness doesn't justify its price tag. There are far more enticing and complex summery, lemony scents in Dior's...

    Escale a Portofino opens with a blast of lemon. It's intense but probably not going to yield obnoxious sillage. As the scent dries down, it verges dangerously towards Pledge territory but a bit of...

    if you like the children's scent Givenchy Ptisenbon Tartine et Chocolat but find it does not last at all, you should try this. To me it has that same citrusy soft lotiony scent. But longer lasting.

    Beautiful cologne for summer, fresh, clean, soapy, not at all sweet, just like a summer breeze. The lasting power is pretty good. My favorite among the three escales.

    Portofino.. Italy... This is the fragrance I liked least out of the 3 Escales but I purchased it anyway. I found that burst of citrus refreshing and fitting for summer, however the citrus is a...

    I give this a 3 because it is not really unpleasant but is incredibly mediocre. It goes on strongly neroli/orange blossom (it is a soapy orange blossom not fresh blossom/ or sweet orange blossom)...

    A wonderful clear, green citrus, that mellows into mediteranean florals. Very uplifting and classy. Lovely for summer, but I also like to wear this in January for my post Christmas detox!

    I tried a sample and I have been using this EDT for a few days. It is the perfect summer scent: it smells of citron, orange blosson and a touch of bitter almond. Most importantly it is not...

    Escale a Portofino is a lovely burst of lemon and bergamot enhanced by citron. It reminds me quite a lot of 4711 but with far superior lasting power. It reminds me also of D & G Light Blue, not...

    Mmm, how wonderful!! Bergamot is one of my favorite notes. This is a truly refreshing and clean smell. Perfect for hot, humid summer. I really really like it from the beginning to the drydown. I...

    I'm really cravinga nice lemony, citrusy scent for warm summer days. This isn't the one. When I spray this on I feel like I'm wearing Pledge.

    I love this lemony burst of citrus for those hot, humid days in summer. I would love to try a lotion in this scent - one that is not too heavy and lingers on the skin, because unfortunately, this...

    Escale a Portofino is one of the best straight citrus perfumes out there for those people who love citrus perfumes. The lemon note is truly lovely, realistic and refreshing and persists throughout...

    This one does not work with my body chemistry. The initial spray smelled too strongly of citrus, old spice, and cigarettes. It's a shame, however I have sniffed this on others and it was so...

    This perfume leaves me with mixed feelings. The initial spritz is to die for - a bubbly blend of citrus that is uplifting and energizing. The almond note behind the citrus is a lovely balancing...
