The thing about me is that mostly you want to stay on my good side. Here I am staying on everyone else’s good side today with Le Labo Bergamot 22. Beautiful sunshine in a bottle. Bright citrus and a drydown that smells mostly like vetiver. Decent sillage and projection, this oil lasts the whole day, and relatively inoffensive, dare I say even “office safe”.
I met a lady at the airport, and our flight was delayed by quite a bit. To kill some time, I pulled out the three perfume samples I had in my bag, and sprayed them directly on my skin, making notes on my phone as I went, thinking about what I was smelling.
This lady next to me says “I used to hate all perfume until I discovered Le Labo Bergamot 22.”
Let me tell you – kudos to this woman. She’d had a long day behind her, and a long night ahead of her, but she was in good spirits. Not happy, but ok with just accepting the situation for what it was and making the best of it. She was a grandmother and traveling alone for this leg. She was tired, we were all tired. But she was happy to chat with me, and we talked about perfume a bit.
Bergamot 22 would have suited her. It’s sunny and affable.
