Read more about Bergamote 22 ▾
Bergamote 22 is a Woody Aromatic fragrance from the American house Le Labo, released in 2006 and signed by perfumer Daphné Bugey. This fragrance for men and women presents bergamot in a fresh, clean style with a soft woody-musky base. It is one of the house’s most famous and widely worn fragrances.
The Story of Le Labo and Bergamote 22
Le Labo was founded in New York in 2006 and is known for naming its fragrances after the main ingredient followed by a number indicating how many ingredients are in the formula, so 22 means the fragrance is built from twenty-two ingredients. Bergamote 22 was one of the house’s first fragrances and over time became one of its most popular, thanks to its simplicity and elegance.
How Bergamote 22 Evolves
This fragrance doesn’t follow a classic pyramid but relies on ingredients that appear together in harmony: Bergamot is the star, alongside Grapefruit, Petitgrain and Orange Blossom, so you feel a bright citrus freshness from the very first spray. Over time, Vetiver, Cedarwood and Musk emerge, followed by a soft touch of Vanilla and Amber that gives the skin a clean, lasting warmth.
Bergamot: The Most Elegant Citrus
Bergamot is an Italian citrus fruit whose oil is extracted from the peel. Its scent is softer and more complex than lemon, with a light floral touch, which is why it is one of the most widely used ingredients in luxury perfumery. If you love orange blossom, read our article on neroli fragrances.

Tips for Wearing Bergamote 22
- Spray on your pulse points: the neck, behind the ears and the inner wrists. Body heat helps release the scent gradually.
- Don’t rub your wrists together after spraying. Rubbing breaks the top notes and changes the balance of the opening.
- Two to three sprays are enough for most occasions. Add one spray on your clothes if you want it to last longer.
- Moisturize your skin with an unscented cream before spraying. Moisturized skin holds fragrance longer.
- Try the fragrance on your skin and wait half an hour before judging it, as the base reveals the composition’s true character.
How to Care for Your Fragrance
Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity, ideally in its box inside a cupboard, not in the bathroom or the car. Close the cap tightly after each use to limit the oils’ exposure to air, as these factors are what most change a scent over time.
