Great fragrance with incorrect name
Yesterday I received my blind buy Bergamask. I am always very excited about fragrances from Alessandro Gualtieri, but so far none of his fragrances have managed to land in my collection permanently, or to get beyond a bottling. My hope was that Bergamask could do just that. My problem with Alessandro Gualtieri fragrances until now was often this extreme synthetic or even a very strong animalic.
I would like to go now briefly on my opinion of the name Bergamask, because I find this not well chosen. A fresh component there is of course in Bergamask, but I find this has almost nothing in common with a bergamot except to trigger a feeling of freshness. Here I can only say the name just does not fit at all.
Bergamask is for me a synthetic fragrance, who does not like that should already take the legs in hand and run, because the synthetic is omnipresent here. I think that Bergamask also contains natural substances such as orange oil, which also creates this feeling of freshness, but this orange note never really appears. I am of the opinion here that orange oil was used for the fresh top note. After about 10 minutes, the fresh already increasingly retreats and gives the stage to the synthetic. I am 100% sure that a lot of Javanol is used here, which is supposed to create a woody smell, especially the smell of sandalwood. The next very dominant note is clearly musk, which has also been used in excess here. After a little over an hour, Bergamask is a sandalwood and musk bomb with occasional fresh breezes, which come out ever so slightly from the top note.
I've always felt with Bergamask that, like Fantomas, Alessandro Gualtieri has deliberately made the fragrance synthetically unhinged, that the scent keeps bouncing around between notes but never finds a proper progression. Bergamask is the complete opposite of Roja, for example, where the separation of top note, heart note and base note has top priority, as well as the gentle sliding into each other of the different levels. Bergmask is planned chaos in the bottle, there is simply no structure here except for a briefly normal-looking top note. Bergamask is fascinating dissonance in a flacon a fragrance without rules and typical structure.
I oscillate with Bergamaks permanently between extreme fascination and hatred, sometimes blows me again a breath of Bergamask where I think to myself just madly great and already 20 minutes later I think at the next breath Bergamask igitt, wash off immediately. It is a fragrance, which permanently roller coaster rides with the sensations of the wearer.
Bergamask has definitely now earned a place in my collection, because this fragrance manages to fascinate and excite me like hardly any other fragrance. Previously, I have experienced it with no perfume that my impressions change so much when wearing. Alone already therefore I would like to own Bergamask.
Bergamask is for me, nevertheless, the most accessible fragrance of Orto Parisi, it is not so difficult to like this, or to wear.
The durability is really extreme like all fragrances of the brand, this is of course also due to the synthetic, which was used here generously. I can smell Bergamask without problems 16 hours on my skin. The silage I find with a little over an arm's length even relatively weak for the brand, which is not bad for me. Bergamask holds this silage for about 9-10 hours before the fragrance then slowly becomes skin tight.
As a tip: Washes after spraying Bergamask the hands otherwise you have constantly the smell of the metal lid on the hands and smells this again and again. Therefore, there is from me also 3 points deduction for the bottle, because I find this somewhat annoying.
