No.7 Wild Bergamot

Wild Bergamot opens with a vivid, juicy bergamot blast that defines the perfume's identity from the first breath: bright, slightly bitter, properly cologne-style. Behind the bergamot, apple and cassis add a fruity sweetness that keeps the opening from going austere - this is a brighter, more approachable take than a classical bergamot-cologne register. The heart turns aromatic and herbal: juniper gives a piney-resinous edge, basil adds green peppery lift, and bay rounds the middle with a warm-leaf depth. The base settles into a chypre-adjacent dry-down where oakmoss provides earthy, slightly green grounding, amber adds warmth, and a clean musk extends the trail. Projection is moderate and longevity around three to four hours, which most wearers find appropriate for a £16 EDP - this is a daily-spritz wear, not a signature scent. Reviewers reach for it as a summer bergamot signature, an after-sport refresh, and a clean office wear for warm months. It sits in the same modern aromatic-fruity-chypre lane as Atelier Cologne Bergamote Soleil and the lighter cousins of Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet, and is routinely cited as the Provenance line's freshest masculine-leaning unisex wear. For wearers who want bergamot freshness with herbal-mossy depth.
