The initial scent of our Bergamot is rich, sweet, fruity and remains so throughout. Middle notes are oily-herbaceous and somewhat balsamic. When the sweetness subsides a bit a tobacco-like, rich aroma can be detected.

The freshness of the top note is mainly due to terpenes and small amounts of citral and aliphatic aldehydes. Unlike other citrus oils Bergamot has a fixative effect when used in high concentrations. The odor is naturally well balanced through the presence of certain coumarin derivatives. Some of these components are odorless and non-volatile. The main chemical constituent of Bergamot is Linalylacetate.
