Citrus Woody Aromatic Brilliance: Le Labo Bergamote 22 Eau de Parfum
Immerse yourself in the dazzling, radiant fusion of sparkling bergamot-citrus zest with delicate petitgrain floral greenness and warm amber-musk sensuality, evoking effortless sophistication and sunny confidence in Le Labo Bergamote 22 Eau de Parfum, launched in 2006 as a woody aromatic unisex fragrance—expertly crafted by Daphné Bugey to blend vibrant citrus top notes, subtle floral heart, and rich woody-amber base. Frequently hailed as a modern classic and one of the best bergamot-dominant scents (often praised for its clean, bright "your skin but better" citrus with musky depth and massive versatility), it's celebrated for its prominent bergamot bitterness, grapefruit tang, and amber-musk sweetness—balancing juicy citrus lift with green herbal nuance and cozy, virile warmth in a fresh yet addictive composition.
This brilliant elixir opens with a vibrant, effervescent surge of bergamot, grapefruit, and petitgrain for crisp, citrusy radiance that's fresh and invigorating, then evolves into a heart of orange blossom (neroli) and subtle spices (like nutmeg) for delicate floral-aromatic layers that feel polished and intriguing, finally anchoring in a base of vetiver, cedarwood, amber, and musk for smooth, woody-amber warmth with luxurious diffusion and lingering sensuality. It’s citrusy yet musky, fresh yet sensual, bright yet grounded—like zesty bergamot-grapefruit sparkle over petitgrain greenness, enveloped in amber-musk radiance that lingers as an addictive, sophisticated aura of everyday elegance.
It bursts with bergamot-grapefruit—zesty, bitter, and strikingly luminous with vibrant energy. The heart unveils petitgrain and orange blossom, crafting a refined, floral-green core that’s balanced, subtle, and captivating. It dries down to a luxurious, lingering amber-musk embrace—warm, woody, and skin-like—creating an enduring, magnetic trail that’s unisex, radiant, and endlessly appealing.

Frequently regarded as a standout in Le Labo's Classic Collection—bergamot-citrus dominant, petitgrain-green, amber-musk iconic, with a strikingly fresh yet sensual vibe—Bergamote 22 is described as uniting a bright citrus opening, subtle floral heart, and warm woody-amber base (often praised as a "sunny citrus glow," versatile yet refined, with zesty lift and cozy depth). It’s a versatile all-season star (ideal for spring/summer daytime freshness or year-round sophistication, perfect from casual confidence to refined occasions) that consistently draws compliments for its distinctive projection, elegant sillage, and irresistible clean charisma.
Performance excels as an Eau de Parfum: 8-12+ hours longevity (evolves beautifully from citrus burst to musky-amber finish), moderate to strong projection (creates a noticeable yet intimate bubble), and exceptional staying power for its category—transitioning seamlessly into a lingering sensual embrace. Fragrance lovers rave about its premium-quality composition, masterful bergamot synergy, and effortless luxury, though some note its musky dominance over pure citrus in drydown (excellent as a compliment magnet and signature freshie)—perfect for anyone seeking elevated citrus scents with woody-amber depth and radiant sensuality.
