Rêverie de Bergamote is less about the fresh and airy side of bergamot we’re used to in most perfumes, and more celebrates the rich and rindy dirtiness of the citrus fruit. Vibrant bursts of bergamot are joined by gentle hints of rindy orange and green, herbal additions of basil, artemisia, rosemary and lavender. From here a rich and heady geranium adds to the array of sharp citruses and herbs, before settling into an aromatic and leathery base. I pick up a subtle hint of cumin, which seems to have been used just to elevate the dirty rindy nature of the bergamot. A base of earthy Vetiver and patchouli are joined by moss and woods to create a gorgeously masculine base. This is a scent which I really enjoyed discovering, it takes you on a journey and offers up a different take to bergamot which we usually don’t get to see in most perfumes. If you’re a true lover of bergamot this is a must try.
