Bergamot, the key flavor in Earl Grey tea and a popular note in cologne, was named after Bergamo, Italy, though it is mainly produced in the south. Its bright, uplifting scent promotes relaxation and a positive mood. Ideal for diffusing at home or work, it also helps balance oily skin and supports a clear complexion.
