Fresh, semi-tart, floral--easily enjoyable
Sampling Perris Monte Carlo Bergamotto di Calabria (from the Italy collection), the tartest of the three entries I’ve tried from this house, albeit with some restraint, like Cedro di Diamante, of which it is reminiscent in its citrus dominance (bergamot, to Cedro’s lemon), with pepper, woods, iris, and musk. BDC is also laden with orange blossom, orange flower, petitgrain, and jasmine, so there’s a hearty floral component to it that is maybe not so present in Cedro, which lands in slightly sweeter territory. Bergamotto is more to the floral side, with the bergamot less dominant in it than lemon in Cedro. Overall, it’s well rounded, an easily likable fresh scent for the warmer weather, especially.
Bergamotto di Calabria is priced at $190 for 100ml and is sold through Indigo Perfumery, Luckyscent, and several department stores in the US. As with the other entries I’ve tried (Cedro di Diamante and Arancia di Sicilia), I regard this as good value, as the fragrance offers some intrigue but is quite pleasant and versatile. Still, Arancia is my favorite of the three, but Cedro and Bergamotto are both nice, as well.
