The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Essential Parfums, Nice Bergamote is a creation from perfumer Antoine Maisondieu. This Citrus Aromatic fragrance opens with a vibrant burst of bergamot, which contrasts beautifully against the soft white and yellow florals that emerge in its heart. The woody base adds depth and warmth, while subtle spicy notes lend an unexpected edge to the composition. Nice Bergamote captures the essence of haute perfumery with its balanced layers and refined character.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to the pulse points for a balanced experience. The bergamot top note is vibrant but fades quickly, so it's essential to let the fragrance develop over time to fully appreciate its nuanced layers.
