The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Allegra Magnifying Bergamot Essence by Bvlgari is a striking Citrus fragrance that was launched in 2021. The composition opens with a vibrant burst of bergamot, which is amplified to create an intense freshness. This citrus note is then complemented by aromatic and spicy undertones, adding depth without overpowering the bright top notes. As it settles, subtle floral and sweet accords emerge, creating a warm and inviting backdrop that contrasts beautifully with the initial zesty impact.

How to wear it

Apply Allegra Magnifying Bergamot Essence lightly — the citrus and aromatic notes are designed to catch the light and sparkle close to your skin. The fragrance is best suited for daytime wear as its bright opening can be too invigorating for evening settings.
