  You showered me with lullabies… Bergamote Soleil starts with a bitter sweetness, a blend of bergamot and orange, that transmits happiness, as if the perfume wanted to comfort you on a difficult day. In the transition, I clearly notice the lavender and a touch of spices, very subtle and balanced. Drying down, it delivers a pleasant earthiness, probably from the vetiver and oakmoss. Without any grand pretensions, it fits perfectly in the office and intermediate seasons, with that extra touch of naturalness we’ve come to expect. Its performance is medium/high, with good sillage and over 6 hours of longevity, making it ideal for work. In the end, I’ll never get tired of answering: What perfume are you wearing? Atelier… Atelier Cologne.

  Atelier delivers something in Bergamote Soleil that is as realistically citrusy as a fresh, fizzy drink, rejuvenating you and making your heart race. It surpasses Ermenegildo Zegna’s ACQUA DI BERGAMOTTO and Tom Ford’s VENETIAN BERGAMOT. No wonder it holds the 6th spot among the brand’s top ten: 10th Gold Leather, 9th Poivre Electrique, 8th Vanille Insensée, 7th Cedrat Enivrant, 6th Bergamote Soleil, 5th Musc Impérial, 4th Philtre Ceylan, 3rd Rose Anonyme, 2nd Santal Carmin, and 1st Café Tuberosa. CLÉMENTINE CALIFORNIA and ORANGE SANGUINE deserve special mention for their hyper-realism.

  Not much bergamot and a lot of field notes. Or few citrus and lots of aromatic. If the name is a mistake, it’s this one: it opens with a soft, comfortable green citrus, but then turns into orange, cardamom, lavender, and vetiver. There is bergamot, but not that bitter, scratchy, wet kind I love from green gels; here it’s soft, like an infusion, and fades into the background like a watercolor. Within minutes, it reminds me of Cartier Declaration, that classic love-hate fragrance. They share bitter orange, vetiver, and cardamom, plus jasmine, moss, and amber. It feels like a sporty, transparent version of Declaration. As it dries, it becomes a water between fougère and aromatic, thanks to the oakmoss, lavender, and that raw grassy vetiver. It’s a decent cologne, with echoes of Declaration and Guerlain’s L’Eau Boisée, and at first, it reminds me of that sweet Zara Home bergamot by Morillas that’s no longer around. I didn’t love it for those gelatinous notes, but Atelier Cologne has quality and naturalness; it’s challenging Acqua di Parma for its spot, which seems to be dropping in quality lately. P.S. It’s sold as unisex, but to me, it smells like a man’s scent. Normal sillage, average longevity.

  Alright, it smells good. At first, it reminds me of ADP Assoluta with that mix of bitter orange and bergamot, along with that typical fresh, slightly funky touch. You can tell it’s quality and it really wakes you up. After half an hour, the ambrette comes through, giving it a bit of a murky, musky vibe, but then it dries down to a sweet, balsamic amber with citrus lingering around. I’ve worn it for many hours; the projection isn’t amazing, but the quality-to-price ratio is solid.
