Very Citrusy, as to be expected, this is the best bergamot I have had, love this oil. Its sorta strange to get such a high quality oil from a store specializing in soap but im not complaining.

I am a big citrus fan, making soaps nothing beats the traditional citrus clean scent, your lemon, lime, orange and bergamot are all top notch.
