Bergamotto di Calabria
Bergamotto di Calabria by Perris Monte Carlo is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier.

Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
- Sichuan Pepper Buzzy, citrus-tinged pepper. Tingles rather than burns.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
