Nice Bergamote Extrait

Nice Bergamote Extrait by Essential Parfums is an unisex extrait de parfum in the niche price tier. The house lists its notes as bergamot, bitter orange, pink pepper, black pepper, jasmine, sambac jasmine, ylang-ylang, rose, cedarwood, amber, brown sugar and patchouli, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Listed notes

Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Bitter Orange Marmalade without the sugar. Sour and slightly medicinal.
Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Sambac Jasmine Greener, more tea-like jasmine. Less indolic than grandiflorum.
Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
Brown Sugar Molasses-rich sweetness. Warmer and deeper than white sugar.
Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
