Bergamot E.O FCF (Season 2025)
Eleonora Scalseggi has this to say “Bergamot Essential Oil is for many a very important staple of perfumery, and with good reason. It is classy, versatile, aromatically bitter, sparkling, deeply refreshing and never cloying, so much so that some say it is one of the rare aromatics that can blend pretty much with everything.
The one and only drawback of this oil seems to be the natural occurrence of highly photosensitising furocoumarines in its chemistry, which make it unsuitable for skin cosmetics and perfumes if you are going to expose the skin to the sun afterwards. Here is where a FCF ( furocoumarines free) bergamot essential oil shines: it does retain all the crisp elegance of the oil, but it can be used with much lower restrictions. It is safer and more stable and is moreover as clear as water, ideal if you don’t want your perfume juice to have a strong colour (and potentially stain clothes).
Another unmissable product in the perfumer’s organ, obtained from super fresh Calabrian bergamot from one of the best bergamot manufacturers in the world of citrus essential oils.”

This was the reason I ordered from hermitage, I needed a bergamot that would shine. Adam put it so high up, and all the others I have tried (fcf free) just weren’t cutting it. I bought a lot other stuff, and I a glad I did. And this was just as superb as Adam said: bergamot w elements of citron sweet, petit grain floral, and sparkle. It lifts a bit later, so a late top, just a very pretty reliable bergamot( which is in every single formula)

I love bergamot. This one is wonderful and it is great that it is fcf. The scent is bright and fresh and can be combined with almost any other fragrance.

Oh yes, this is up there! Sometimes I struggle with bergamot, it lacks something or is too soapy or old fashioned. This runs rings around any bergamot fcf I’ve ever come across, lively, sparkley and pretty wow actually!

Fantastic bergamot. Smells cleaner than average, and still has that deep and broad citrus characteristic of bergamot. Very pleasing.

I now understand why bergamot is such a staple of perfumery.
I tend to use this one in basically everything which is not ideal for some top notes diversity, but it feels just so right.
Quite surprised it’s so ahead of other bergamot eo i tried considering it has been rectified.

Most complete Bergamot that I have ever experienced. It is very clean and complex at the same time, with many subtle nuances.
If I could, that’s the only Bergamot I would ever use

Among the Hermitage Citrus collection, this is one of my all time favorites. As a Bergamot addict and someone who cannot live without this particular aromatic, upon receiving Hermitage’s Italian variety, I had to discard all Bergamot previously acquired. It is Bergamot on steroids.

This is not just an essential oil. It is stand-alone perfume that I am happy wearing on its own. I can imagine a Hermes cologne modeled solely on this oil. It is simply so good. It has a citrus character which is deep and multifaceted. I wouldn’t be surprised if I was told other citrus oil had been added to it. It also has a subtle floral dimension.

Invest in Adam. I’m serious! Invest in his philosophy, in his passion for beauty and in his best essences. All he sends me is luxury and really strong energy. Thank you, Adam. This bergamot really took my breath away. Excellent as always!

Bergamot is my favorite citrus, and this is the best bergamot I’ve tried. Enough said! More sparkle and complex floral touches than other citruses. This also lasts longer than most bergamot oils while also having a cleaner scent profile, which makes me suspect many others have been diluted or adulterated…
I got both the yellow 2021 / green 2022 batches, and prefer the green one despite expecting the opposite. It’s got more classic zingy bergamot character. The yellow batch comes across more restrained and not as vibrant, with a slight rose/geranium feel to it. But it all depends on the blend you’re going for.

Wildly more vivid and fresh than any bergamot I have ever used, like all the citrus at Hermitage. Will be using this for an Autumn Chypre, and maybe a moody rose.

This stuff has carried me in making most of my citrus colognes. There’s bergamot then there is BERGAMOT. This one is supreme & has that sharp citrusy profile, somewhat spicy yet endlessly refreshing lemon, slightly bitter, Adam nailed the description. Top tier for citrus lovers like me.
