Orto Parisi Bergamask is a Parfum launched in 2014, created by Alessandro Gualtieri. Bergamask opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Lavender, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Tonka Bean. Orto Parisi's Bergamask carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Bergamask is a nuclear citrus and musk bomb that ignites fierce debate. It's either an addictive, masterful blend of clean sweat and sharp bergamot, or a synthetic headache-inducing scrubber that never quits. This isn't for the faint of heart, or those sensitive to powerful musks.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Given its 'nuclear' projection and longevity, Bergamask is too much for an office setting, but perfect for making a bold statement on a date or for casual wear. The clean-but-dirty musk and citrus profile makes it surprisingly versatile for hot weather and active settings, yet its sheer power might overwhelm formal events.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

This is a riotous blast of bergamot and lemon up front, bright and almost photorealistic, like peeling an orange or lemon cake. As it settles, a clean, slightly powdery lavender and lily of the valley emerge, but the true star of the show is the muscular, animalic musk in the base. It gives a raw, sensual edge, complemented by a subtle cedar and tonka bean warmth that lingers for hours, often picking up a 'clean human sweat' or even a 'lemon cleaner' quality depending on who you ask.
