Laboratorio olfattivo bergamotto edc 100 ml is a citrus eau de cologne for men and women. Master perfumer jean-claude ellena, inspired by his love for italy, signs for laboratorio olfattivo una collection called viaggio in italia by jean-claude ellena, whose three stages are: mandarin, lemon, and bergamot, representations of the typically italian joy of living and good humor. Perfumes that are like a ray of sunshine in una a typically winter day. If other citrus fruits originated in china, bergamot, on the other hand, is italian. It’s a real shame not to know the author of its creation, the one who crossed a lemon tree with a bitter orange: he could have received the same homage as his colleague clément, who invented the clementine. Italian traders even sold bergamot to the chinese to flavor their second-rate tea, which they then resold to the english. I’m often asked if i have any olfactory preferences. I’ve always said no, wanting to hide the manipulations i exert on odors, given that the work of a perfumer is very similar to that of a magician. Well, yes, i do have preferences, and they vary according to my needs, my desires. I experience fleeting loves, but also strong and lasting loves, to the point that i’m very attached to bergamot. It’s about time i made this bond official. Jean-claude ellena
