Nicholas Charles Fragrances Oud & Bergamot is an Eau de Parfum. Oud & Bergamot opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Cedar, and dries down to a base of Musk and Oud. Nicholas Charles Fragrances's Oud & Bergamot carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Oud & Bergamot dupes Jo Malone's understated citrus-oud pairing - the bergamot opening is bright and true, but the dupe's musk-oud base is softer than the Cologne Intense concentration's noticeably stronger real-world performance.

About

This take on Oud & Bergamot opens with a vibrant, sparkling bergamot that captures Jo Malone's signature clean, citrus freshness convincingly. Cedar wood and orange blossom carry the heart, giving a refined, understated woody-floral warmth that mirrors the original's restrained elegance. Oud and musk finish things off with a soft, smooth base rather than the deeper, more resinous oud found in the designer version's Cologne Intense strength. Jo Malone's Oud & Bergamot Cologne Intense was specifically formulated to have more staying power than the brand's standard colognes, and that extra performance is the main thing missing here - this dupe settles into a gentle skin scent sooner than the original's noticeably stronger sillage. As a fresh, versatile everyday woody-citrus at a fraction of the price, though, it's a pleasant and wearable alternative.
