Our take

Bergamask keeps its note list short, bergamot and lemon at the top, lavender, orange blossom and lily of the valley at heart, musk, cedar and tonka underneath, each one given room to register before the next arrives. The citrus stays surprisingly bright, propped up by a musky, slightly powdery base rather than fading into typical cologne territory. Lavender gives the middle a clean, aromatic lift that keeps the composition feeling uncluttered.

It's remarkably tenacious, the kind that's hard to shift once it's settled in, and its presence carries into a room, easy for others to pick up before you say a word. Warm weather is where it performs best, and it works equally well for men and women who want a clean, citrus-forward scent with unusual staying power. Anyone who prefers something soft and skin-close should sample it first, since the projection here is anything but shy. The citrus never fully disappears, resurfacing faintly even once the woods and musk take hold. Long after the opening fades, the impression it leaves behind is sheets drying stiff on a line strung between lemon trees.
