Bergamotto

Monotheme fragrances have a special place in my heart, not only are they great value but they deliver the goods too. These orange bottle ones are not just one note, rather a perfect compliment to bring out the featured note. Here it's bergamot and a great representation it is, lovely fresh opening with a touch of woods and white florals, and even a tiny hint of vanilla in the drydown. This is not particularly long lasting, but you get a couple of hours of really well crafted fragrance.

I received this perfume as a gift from a friend and I simply loved it. It's my favorite everyday perfume. I wasn't familiar with the brand and I've never seen it in Ireland. I want to try other scents.

It's inexpensive and summery, doesn't last very long because it is made entirely of top note. But enjoyable all the same

This is my first Monotheme perfume. Not surprisingly for a perfume with one note and the name Bergamotto, it smells of Bergamot and pretty much only Bergamot. Is there a moment of florals in there? Not sure whether that's my imagination at work or not. I'd say it projects moderately for the first half hour or so and then settles to a skin scent. I find it lasts between 4 and 5 hours on me. It's a nice cologne and suitable for any time of day or year. It's a good refresher. I'd say it's reasonable value for its price and I rather like the bottle design. If you're looking for a Bergamot cologne with a little more complexity but with the same gentility and elegance, I'd suggest you try The Different Company's Bergamote which is a Jean-Claude Ellena creation. Simple bergamot. Lovely and fresh.

Amazing, fresh and bittery citrusy bergamot scent, no longevity whatsoever. Top notes, I get it. Still. Maybe on clothes you can catch a glimpse after a few hours, but that's all. I still like it, it's an instant mood-booster after taking a shower. Probably not gonna repurchase it, but inspired enough to look for something similar, but with better performance.
