Soft · 3/9

Bergamot carries a soft olfactory strength. This measures its perceived dominance independent of concentration — a soft material blends gently and supports other notes rather than overpowering them.

About Bergamot in Perfumery

Bergamot belongs to the citrus family and functions as a top note — the bright first impression that greets the nose and then gently fades within the opening minutes. The first impression — fleeting and bright. It is a versatile material that perfumers reach for across many styles of composition.
