From Victoria Beckham - "When David and I first met, we kept our relationship under wraps. This was when I was in the Spice Girls, when we were enormously successful all around the world, and David was playing for Manchester United. In 1997, we decided to take a trip to Portofino. I remember the light, I remember how the hotel smelled and how exciting that time was. I remember it all like it was yesterday."
Fragrantica - "This is a wealthy, young woman on holiday somewhere by the Mediterranean Sea. The scent is fresh, and citrusy but also woody and unique. Reminds me of an elegant lady, wearing a lot of white clothes, linen and silk."
Fragrantica - "This really reminds me of Aventus, for men, which I love, even the opening to me is heavy on pineapple just like Aventus but I have to say I think it’s very good, very long lasting, classy, unisex and has great sillage. Plus it’s cheaper than Aventus and much better than the latest offerings from Creed. "
Fragrantica - "I don't often rave about a new perfume but this one is definitely worth raving about! It's pricey but very high quality. I was never a VB fan before but bravo to her for bringing out a perfume of this quality and versatility! I will definitely repurchase."
Fragrantica - "It is the perfect vacation scent. It's fresh, sweet, and creamy, but not too strong - very pleasant. It's different from Bal D'Afrique, which is sharper; Portofino '97 is more mellow and relaxing. Great for a holidays."
