My love of citrus...
In the summer or on a warm spring day, I love nothing more than to wear a citrus based perfume. Bergamot is usually crisp and refreshing when the weather is hot. When I first sprayed Fleurs d'Ombre Bergamote onto my skin I could mainly get the bitter orange, which was very sour and sharp. But quite quickly this morphed into a extremely sweet lemon fragrance. I was hoping that the oakmoss or patchouli would give this more depth, but unfortunately it remained extremely linear. The overall impression is of powdered lemon sherbet, very sweet with a slight tang. If there had been more depth to it, I think I would have enjoyed it more, but it became too sweet for me in the warm weather.
