    Portrait of a lady .
    With my eyes closed, I was guessing an Oud & Rose combination enhanced with Musk.
    I've heard a lot about it, so maybe that's why I'm disappointed.
    An elegant perfume with nicely matched notes, balanced, with a real olfactory dimension.
    But what saddens me is that I feel like I've smelled it before... many times before.
    A Cypriot Rose, aromatic and woody.
    The spicy Patchouli gives it an exotic aspect, like a Cambodian or Laotian Oud.
    A Rose raised by a trio Musk, Blackcurrant and Raspberry omnipresent.
    I have ghostly and chypre scents of Coriander, Ambrette, Styrax, Mugwort and Chamomile.
    Released in 2010 this is a precursor, but it reminds me of so many others:
    - "Rose & White Musk Absolute" Jo Malone
    - "Rose Exaltante" Mizensir
    - "White Patchouli" Tom Ford
    - "Cafe Rose" Tom Ford
    - Rose Oud" Nicolai Parfumeur
    - etc...
    7,5/10

    "It does feel similar to POAL and then does not" love hearing you saying that......lol. I think that porpora is more wearable from a masculine point of view or maybe more unisex. Somewhat surprised that its not the 1st runner up to POAL. Paolo will be sad to hear that.....just joking

    Eden Perfumes also has an alternative for Portrait of a Lady as well (they call it Portrait of a Woman). And it's vegan and cruelty free.
    I have it and like it, I would say it has a stronger incense but a more toned down patchouli compared to the current version of POAL. The rose is the same to my nose. I prefer the Eden one because I like incense more than patchouli, also it's much cheaper (you can buy 30 ml for 24 pounds). It has good longevity (lasts all day) and leaves a trail behind you.

    The line between fragrance enthusiasm and an addiction is blurry. With so much fragrance in your collection, you might have crossed that line without knowing it.
