Nice Bergamot 100 ml + 150 ml RefillFloral Citrus Eau de Parfum

The Nice Bergamote duo by Essential Parfums brings together the 100 ml refillable spray bottle and its 150 ml refill — that's 250 ml in total of the citrusy, floral, and woody eau de parfum created by Antoine Maisondieu.

The perfumer takes center stage

Essential Parfums is a Paris-based house founded in 2018 by Géraldine Archambault, which turns the usual logic on its head: the perfumer's name is on the bottle, and the creation takes precedence over the packaging. Its philosophy can be summed up in one sentence: "simplicity as the ultimate luxury". Each perfumer is given the same brief: create a unisex fragrance centered around an inspiring natural raw material — in this case, bergamot. Its formulas are vegan and contain between 86 and 93% ingredients of natural origin.

An opening of Italian bergamot

Italian bergamot opens alone — zesty, luminous, slightly floral. A single top note, where most citrus fragrances pile on four or five.

A heart of jasmine and Comorian ylang-ylang

Jasmine brings its carnal whiteness, while Comorian ylang-ylang brings its sunny, creamy facets. Two flowers, and nothing else.

A base of cedar and Venezuelan tonka bean

Cedar brings its dry woodiness, and Venezuelan tonka bean an almond-like sweetness that retains the freshness.

The house's approach

Keep the bottle, refill it. This duo brings together 250 ml with a single spray bottle: you buy the object once, and then the perfume. It is the same logic that runs through the entire house — lighten the container to invest in the contents — and it makes perfect sense for a fresh fragrance that you spray generously in the warmer months.

For whom, and for which occasions?

The obvious choice for those who already know the fragrance and want to enjoy it for a long time, or as a complete gift set. The fragrance is at its best from spring to summer, at the office or on vacation.
