Super good citrus scent, but unfortunately short-lived
Many thanks to Oloroso for this addition. First, I must honestly say that I am not a fan of fresh citrus perfumes. Therefore, I am also not enthusiastic about "Cool Water" or "Photo," for example.
When I tested "Il Libro degli Agrumi - Bergamotto," I was very positively surprised. It is, as the name suggests, bergamot that surrounds my nose, but of the finest quality. Apart from the bergamot, which is exclusively indicated, I cannot detect anything else. It comes across very naturally and even put me, as an oriental fan, in a very positive mood.
As much as I like the scent itself, the sillage and longevity are quite disappointing. Both barely reach the average level. Some cheap drugstore products last longer, hhmmmm! What a shame, because this wonderful bergamot could have accompanied me for much longer. The bottle would have received 60% from me, but since that option does not exist, it’s only average.
CONCLUSION: A perfume that will surely find friends who love fresh citrus scents in their naturalness and are also willing to carry a travel spray for reapplication.

I've come to like citrus scents more since discovering Verveine Cédrat by Jeanne en Provence. The longevity is okay for citrus fragrances.

The Italians create wonderful citrus scents! The short longevity is normal for these colognes and speaks to their naturalness.

The longevity is terrible, but the scent is very authentic. Trophy+
