Description
The collection of By Request Floris adds a new fragrance Bergamotto Positano which arrives on the market in May 2015 as limited edition. The new edition was announced as ‘the fragrance whose heart provides warm Mediterranean sea breezes, sunny notes and glittery sea waves’. The fragrance is a citrus-marine composition which highlights beauty of nature and flavors of the coast by mixing aromatic herbs with sunny citruses and sea water salt.
“True summer citrus-marine fragrance with dance of the wind passing through coastal lemon trees, by gathering strength and self-esteem of spices and ambers under umbrella-shaped tree tops on steep cliffs of the coast”. The composition provides a union of fresh bergamot, mandarin and warm sea aromas in top notes of the composition, blending them with cheerful accords of heart, created of orange blossom cuddling with soft, creamy vanilla by providing a fuscous character. Base notes of wood, amber, ambrette and ginger create sensual warmth reminding us of Mediterranean nights.
The fragrance arrives as 100ml Eau de Parfum limited edition and belongs to the collection By Request. It is available on the official website priced at 160 pounds for 100ml EDP.

I think this is the perfume that has been based on Meghan and Harry’s royal wedding day.
This perfumerie will be making a bespoke perfume for the couple, in May 2018.

This perfume went on, and stayed for hours, like the honeydew melon scented candle from the Yankee Candle Co., a very waxy, bathroom cleaning solution smell. It was quite nauseating, and could almost not be washed off. It most certainly did not smell of bergamot or orange flower, both of which I am well acquainted with in their natural and extracted forms. As to the other ingredients, well, good luck noticing those.
It would be one thing if it didn’t smell quite like what it’s supposed to, but still smelled great, but to me, at least, no. And on top of that, it was $235.00!

It’s a lovely fresh aquatic smell.. If I was to make a comparison, to me it’s a cross between CK Be and CK One.. kind of like an amalgamation of the two. I like the smell a lot.
As previously mentioned though, it is a fresh aquatic/citrus scent.. so performance is poor, even though it is a parfum. Would be really interested to know what it is about this genre of fragrance that ruins longevity and projection.

Super-lovely smell, and I’m not a fan of citruses (I usually find them too boring)! Longevity is, of course, a problem for this type of smell…

Definitely a fragrance for women, very sweet and with vanilla being the dominant note. The bergamot is very weak. Not for men.

one of our favorite new citrus releases is this one by Floris. an underrated house worthy of discovery. a truly unique release for summer time wear…

One thing people need to know, is that citrus based formulas such as this, bergamote 22, L’hummanist, etc. are not going to project like monsters and last 12+ hours, so if you’re waiting on one, you’re going to be waiting forever.
The bergamote here is not piercingly sharp. It’s consistent, not dull but sharp. It’s very natural smelling as well. I have santal from this house as well, another great fragrance. I do enjoy the offerings from this house and I think for the price, I have to go ahead and pick this one up too.
9/10
Check it out!!

This is a citrus based fragrance that actually looks like it may have some potential.. I love Floris Santal, so I definitely would love to try this..
