Tom Ford's answer to a hot summer's day is Mandarino di Amalfi, a brisk, refreshing, and aromatic citrus scent with an herbal twist. It opens with enormous brightness, as rich neroli dances with zesty lemons, black pepper, cool mint, tarragon and a dash of basil. The fragrant, slightly bitter oils from a green orange add a concentrated heft to the citrus blend, while herbal clary sage brings a shower-fresh cleanness with a lavender touch. Vetiver adds a quiet touch of woodiness to the background, and the whole thing is finished off with a floral musk.  It is an opening that is simultaneously green, herbal, and clean, but Mandarino di Amalfi has a beautiful floral heart. The orange blossom slowly blooms, dropping its velvet-soft petals over the green neroli, and muffling the herbs. As the clary sage fades away, the jasmine comes out to play. Soon, the crisp, aromatic scent turns softer, and the notes melt seamlessly into one, leaving a warmer fragrance of green citruses and discrete florals with a hint of fruitiness. Mandarino di Amalfi is an airy bouquet that sits lightly above your skin in a soft cloud of refreshing elegance. We think it's the perfect antidote to the summer heat.
