## Essence
Jasmin & Bergamote is a light green jasmine EDT that favors freshness and restraint over white-floral drama. It is jasmine for people who usually find jasmine too intense.
## Scent Profile
Mandarin, bergamot, and petitgrain give a brief citrus-green opening. The feeling is clean, lightly grassy, and bright.
Jasmine then becomes the focus, but remains watery and luminous rather than indolic or narcotic. It is a steady green-jasmine accord rather than a changing floral spectacle.
Cedar and sandalwood give the final stage a pale woody softness. Some skin finds watery-fruit or cucumber-like nuances, but the main effect stays clean jasmine.
## Performance
This EDT is intimate and modest, often fading within a few hours. Treat it as a warm-weather refresh scent and reapply if desired.
## Wearing Context
Spring, summer, errands, office days, and walks suit its quiet character. It leans feminine but remains easy for anyone who prefers a low-key floral trail.
## Comparisons & DNA
Notre Flore Jasmin is the more substantial in-house jasmine reference.
A La Nuit shows the heady jasmine style this fragrance deliberately avoids.
Light Aqua Allegoria scents offer similar fresh naturalistic context.
## Reception
It is liked for being pretty, balanced, and approachable. Simplicity, short wear, and its former price are the recurring reservations. Discontinuation made it more desirable to quiet-jasmine devotees.
## Versions & Reformulation
No reformulation is documented. The fragrance appeared as a 75 ml EDT and miniature, with matching bath and body products, before discontinuation.
## Acquisition Notes
It now requires old stock or resale. Citrus top notes can degrade with storage, so condition matters more than authenticity concerns.
