Le Labo's Berg22 tops my list as well. It works like a charm in really hot south european climate. I mostly get cedar and vetiver in the drydown but its light and airy. Performance is decent.
Love your Nishane selections - Colognise is a great easy wear without being boring at all, one of my summer go-tos. I agree about Aqua do Parma’s Bergamote do Calabria fading into primarily woody notes - and it’s a pity because it fades fast! Still, yes, please do a video on the Blu Mediterranean series, there are so many wonderful fragrances in there. Also was glad to see Perris Monte Carlo in there - is it just me or do they not show up in your videos much? Either way, thanks for another great list!
Great list. Probably one of my favourite notes. I took a sample of the Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria on a recent trip to Italy - well matched but maybe a bit bland. In current London heatwave wearing Ô de Lancôme and also really enjoying Guerlain's Néroli Outrenoir - love bergamot with tea notes (although surprisingly not a fan of Earl Grey tea for drinking!)
Fantastic video, Sebastian! I love all things bergamot and Le Labo Bergamote 22 being one of my best/favorite bergamot fragrance in my collection. I know you have done few bergamot themed fragrances in the past and I sitll enjoy immensely when you do top 10 ior 20 bergamote fragrance countdown. BTW, you first introduced me to Nice Bergamote and when I got, I wasn't disappointed and love to wear it in hot scorching heat! Keep up the great work and thank you as always!! Cheers from your South Bay neighbor!
I love Jo Malone's Oud & Bergamot. Wulong Cha is great, too. I love bergamot as a top note but it usually burns out off my skin very quickly. My favorite fragrance that features bergamot as note is probably Creed's Aventus and Ormonde Jayne's Montabaco Verano.
Love Bergamot as a top note and dominant note. Essential Parfums Nice Bergamot, Creed Silver Mountain Water, and Le Labo Bergamot 22 are some of my favs with Bergamot. Have to get my nose on the others from this list.
Your videos are always timely and much appreciated! I recently discovered Dedcool Madonna Lilly and WOW its a gorgeous bergamot fragrance!! Doesn't list it but its 100% there... I would also enjoy your take on the Aqua Di Parma lines. I have and enjoy their almond frag. Take care!!
There are a few that I enjoy on this list but Bergamote Soleil is my favourite. Bergamot is not my favourite citrus note when it’s about dominant citrus fragrances I prefer orange and Grapefruit. But I love it as a supporting note though.
Fantastic choices for the hot summer and yes, I will be in California (SF to be exact from 21 to 25 Jul) ... not sure if I can have the honour to meet up with you :)?
Give me a bergamot scent any day of the year where I live. These are great options. Really curious for the Essential parfums nice bergamot. Thanks for the video sebastian.
Imo Creed's Original Vetiver is as much a bergamot fragrance as it is a vetiver fragrance. I smell bergamot strongly through the life of the fragrance on my skin. The vetiver just adds a smoky depth to the fragrance.
Le Labo' Bergamot 22, is my favourite summer scent! It lasts up to 18 hours on my skin i tried Nio (and Kobe) but i found the performance of both were weak on my skin compared to Le Labo. Nio went too powdery and a tad soapy for my liking.
Maybe watch this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eC_Ki1UWh24.html and try Balade Sauvage? Not identical they hint at one another to me! :)
Interesting you find the performance of the Aqua Allegoria & The Di Parma to supersede that of DHC. I get 6 hours consistently with DHC. But I suppose all skin types are diff.
