Sample DUA 22 Shades of Bergamot first for a fuller take on Bergamote 22’s citrus-and-wood direction. Choose Paris Corner Just Bergamot if you enjoy a brighter citrus opening and a more floral middle. Both offer recognizable connections, but the original’s balance of bitter grapefruit, soft florals and vetiver deserves a side-by-side test.
The reference is Le Labo Bergamote 22 Eau de Parfum, separate from the perfume oil. Bergamot and grapefruit meet petitgrain, gentle sweetness, musk and woods. The settled texture matters as much as the first citrus impression.
Shopping check, October 16, 2026: DUA’s button searches for plain 22 Shades of Bergamot; the maker currently lists a 34 ml Extrait de Parfum bottle. Just Bergamot uses Jomashop’s exact regular 100 ml EDP listing, labeled 3.38 oz. Listing identity was verified; current Jomashop stock was unconfirmed.

How we chose these fragrances
We compare opening, heart and drydown, giving most weight to direct comparisons by people familiar with Bergamote 22 EDP. Citrus bitterness, floral texture, sweetness, musk and the woody-vetiver finish inform resemblance. Shared notes and inspiration claims identify candidates but cannot establish closeness by themselves. Accounts without original familiarity can inform development and wear. Comparisons to scented lotion receive less weight than EDP comparisons. Scores and percentages are approximate editorial judgments, not measured formula matches or copied reviewer scores. Numerical longevity windows are provisional planning estimates for detectable skin wear, including a quieter finish. Usable timing is limited, some accounts concern older bottles, and general wear descriptions carry less weight than explicitly identified skin timing. Projection, clothing persistence, ratings, exercise conditions, layering and wash-off remain separate. A scent becoming quieter does not mean it has disappeared. Skin, application, bottle and conditions can produce shorter or longer results.
