Bergamot (Spicy)

Bergamot is a small, pear-shaped citrus fruit produced in Italy. It is a cross between a pear lemon and a grapefruit. The fruit is sour, but the peel is used to produce an aromatic oil that is used in making the popular Earl Grey tea. It is also used in candy-making, as an aromatherapy to treat depression, as a digestive aid, as well as in many perfumes.

Bergamot is one of the more popular scents in both high end men's and women's fragrances. Bergamot awakens the heart and opens the spirit, offering a sweet, citrus (lemony), pepper-like aroma that is a joy to blend with. Try mixing it with masculine scents for that perfect cologne or with other natural fragrances such as lavender, sage, basil, green tea, grapefruit, and mandarin.
