SHAMELESS INDULGENCE

AS SUMMER approaches, scents should get lighter and more zesty. So I love Tom Ford Neroli Portofino Eau De Parfum Decanter.

At £330 for a huge 250ml, from SpaceNK and department stores nationwide, it is, admittedly, a real indulgence — but the scent and the eye-catching bottle are truly unique.

Inspired by the Italian Riviera, it is like a spritz of summer in a bottle. The bright citrus notes come through instantly, and are underpinned by amber undertones and delicate floral touches, which stay fresh throughout the day.

It’s in a keep-for ever decanter that should take pride of place on your dressing table. If you can’t stretch to that, try the 50ml bottle (although at £145, it makes the decanter seem good value), the lighter Acqua Eau de Toilette (£95 for 50ml), or shower gel (£42 for 150ml).
