L'Occitane Bergamot Tea: Good Stuff

“Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.” - Jean Luc Picard

Bergamot tea reminds me of Jean Luc Picard. Picard is, without a doubt, my favorite Star Fleet captain. Add this to the fact that I’m on a tea fragrance bender and you can imagine what I did the evening the L’Occitane sample of Bergamot Tea arrived. Yep, I ordered it.

L’Occitane Bergamot Tea is delightfully refreshing. If you’re looking for a dry, hesperedic, slightly woody and spicy tea scent, this is good stuff.

Longevity is decent if you apply like a cologne and don’t mind re-applying once or twice throughout the day. The bottle cap is chintzy; mine got stuck on the second use. A pair of tweezers remedied the situation.

I also purchased the little perfume solid. I don’t recommend it, it’s less potent than the EDT.

Bergamot Tea is quite nice. I’m pleased.

3.4 oz bottle of EDT is $46 from L’Occitane

Top Notes: Bergamot from Calabria, Mandarin, Cardamom, and Grapefruit
