There is something intriguing about Bergamask that has made me try it maybe ten times.
But I finally resign: we will not be lovers. It triggers a kindergarden memory in me, more specifically the scent of plasticine that I think sticks with the musk.
It is far too waxy, as if the stop motion crew of Aardman spilled a hot cup of Earl Grey Tea over the entire film set. Bergamot and tea over plasticine.
I can see what Gualtieri is trying to do, because the impression of “dirty” and “corporal” that he seeks is not off the mark. But as happens quite often with modern aromachemicals, the petrochemical connotations are too strong and synthetic in an off-putting way for me.
