My Vitamin D
How many sunny, warm days have we had between now and May 2021? I think I can count them on one hand. But every time I miss the warmth, every time I look forward to long nights, I have to sniff the Bergamot 22 bottle. It makes me hope for sunny days.
The prelude begins strongly citrusy, in my opinion almost a bit too much. But that settles quickly. It remains a pleasant note that is composed of the many citrus ingredients. In the background, I still notice a slight woody note, which is probably caused by the vetiver and cedar. To be honest, I don't smell a great change in the hours after. But then, it doesn't need to. I like it just the way it is. Above 20 degrees Celsius, it also comes to have a really solid staying power. The sillage is also perfectly fine for a citrusy scent. He is never penetrating, but is noticed by the fellow.
Le Labo picked me up with this perfume and brought me into the world of niche fragrances. For this I am really grateful

Balance in a bottle
For a long time, this fragrance didn't let me think straight. It was through boredom in the first Lockdown that I accidentally came across Le Labo. I've always been into minimalist, beautiful looking things. And there the brand with its appearance was made for me. For me it was clear, the next perfume you buy here. After some research, I was faced with the decision: Bergamot 22 or Santal 33? Due to the desire for summer and the anticipation of the coming warm nights, it became Le Labo's Bergamotte 22. Also a wonderful fragrance to which I will gladly write a review at a later date! Nevertheless, Santal 33 never really let me go. I even dreamt of this fragrance once (crazy, I know!).
Finally, about two weeks ago, curiosity got the better of me and I ordered the perfume blind. With a huge sense of anticipation, I unwrapped the package two days later and took the bottle out of the beautiful box. One spray on the left side of the neck, one on the right. The first association on my part was strolling through a boutique or a classy furniture store, because it just smelled so clean like leather. A little later, I picked up an herbaceous green note. I couldn't really make out the sandalwood though. Maybe I just have a wrong idea of how sandalwood should smell. All in all, the fragrance seems very balanced to me. Fits so wonderfully to me :)
Irritated I am, however, by durability and sillage. While others write here of several hours of endurance and powerful sillage, I can rather report a maximum of five hours and mediocre projection. Here's my question: how many sprays do you use? Also in view of the fact that your environment should perceive the scent.
