Could be more bergamot
The fragrance label Essential Parfums has attracted extremely positive attention, at least with the release of Bois Imperial. If you compare it with the label's other creations, it is likely to have generated the most sales by a huge margin. Unfortunately, the other fragrances fall far behind, even if they at least don't receive bad reviews on average.
The situation is similar with Nice Bergamote, which stands in the shadow of Bois Imperial. After all, Antoine Maisondieu has also created some highly successful fragrances for other brands, but this "nice bergamot" is perhaps simply too well-behaved, too arbitrary, too unexciting and not innovative enough.
However, what you get here is what you get or could expect: a citrusy bergamot refresher with a clear impact with floral notes of jasmine and ylang-ylang. There is also a small hint of cedarwood and barely any tonka bean. That's about it.
You shouldn't expect an outstanding performance, as Nice Bergamote is too close to the body and too short-breathed for that.
In principle, one could assume that the entire creation is unisex, but I personally find the floral notes quite feminine and the core theme not fully served. I would definitely recommend a test before placing a blind order.
If you wear it, you have a spring-like, summery companion - but you have to ask yourself whether this is exactly what you want because there are so many alternatives. It's nicely made, but as we all know, that's unfortunately not always enough and the better is simply the enemy of the good.
