Also good without citrus refreshment
In such hot temperatures of over 30 degrees, as this weekend, classic citrus fragrances are the best olfactory refreshment. Who now expects exactly this with the name Rêverie de Bergamote (Bergamot Dreaming) and the yellow bottle, might be quite disappointed, because the new fragrance by Miller Harris does not manage that. But while with some perfumes the stated fragrance notes are rather misleading, I find them here - with small exceptions - quite coherent.
The bergamot is present here right at the beginning in a juicy-sour form, but immediately it becomes clear that a fairly classic fougère accord has also been incorporated: Lavender contributes an aromatic and subtly powdery side and the woody-mossy base provides a tart and stereotypically masculine foundation. There is, thankfully, an almost complete lack of the usual coumarin sweetness here - at least it is only slightly perceptible. The green notes are just accessories for me and I can't make out leather at all. The latter I would also not have felt as fitting to it.
Thus, Rêverie de Bergamote is overall pretty quickly characterized by a warm-spicy-woody melange and has thereby perhaps also something dreamy about it. Definitely, it is in my opinion classic and natural held and seems rather mature, but not old-fashioned. Anyway, the slightly soapy impact of the fougère accord doesn't particularly stand out here. And while the fragrance initially even projects quite strongly, it becomes softer and quieter with time, but is perceptible long enough.
As a typical summer fragrance, I would therefore not classify him, but as best suited for spring and autumn, but he is absolutely wearable all year round, because he does not become cloyingly sultry at high temperatures and conveys enough warmth to find use even in winter.
