    I find amtico scratches really easily, I can't see it lasting very long before it looks worn

    Interesting.
    It's certainly meant to have one of the thickest wear layers around.

    Spacia parquet

    My ~25 year old Amtico doesn't nor did my mother's. You put a top dressing on it though, not leave it bare.
    Having said that, it is possible to scratch any vinyl floor with a sharp edge.

    A top dressing? I didn't know that.
