Earl Grey Natural (Accord)

I get the bergamot and black tea right away, and it actually smells like a proper cup of Earl Grey rather than a candle. Wore it to work and someone asked what I was drinking.

I wore this on a rainy Tuesday and it genuinely lifted my mood, like steeping a proper cup of tea without the mug. The dry-down keeps that soft citrus-tea quality going for hours instead of turning soapy on me.

The bergamot opens bright and slightly bitter, just like a freshly brewed cup, and it settles into that soft tea-and-citrus character within the first half hour. I've been wearing it on its own rather than layering, which surprised me since I bought it expecting to blend it with other things.
