Eau Vitaminée Vibration Bergamote is the name Biotherm has given since 2026 to a juice already released: L'Eau by Lait Corporel, launched in 2015. The formula has not changed, only the name and the bottle have. It is a citrus composition of orange, mandarin and bergamot, over a heart of freesia and a base of cedar — a fragrance born from the skincare aisle as much as from perfumery.
Two pyramids circulate for this fragrance, and they do not say the same thing.
Biotherm, for Vibration Bergamote, announces top notes of bergamot and mandarin, a heart of ginger — sometimes phrased more vaguely as spices — and a base of white musk. This is the press kit pyramid, the one retailers repeat identically, in French as in German.
The other pyramid is that of L'Eau by Lait Corporel, of which this juice is the reissue: top notes of orange, mandarin and bergamot, a heart of freesia, a base of cedar. This is the one that circulated at the fragrance's release, in February 2015.
The INCI list settles the matter partly, and only partly. It explicitly names three citrus oils, bergamot, bitter orange and lemon, which supports the top notes of both versions. It also names a cinnamon bark oil, which gives real grounding to the word spices used by the house. But a regulatory list declares the fragrance under a single entry and discloses only substances subject to mandatory declaration: it can neither confirm nor rule out ginger, freesia, cedar or musk. To read more into it would be to credit it with a precision it does not have.
It is the 2015 pyramid that describes this bottle. The two terminal colorants and the UV filters common to both formulas establish that the juice is identical. What the house announces in 2026 is its statement, not a reading of the juice — and the gap between the two says something about how a fragrance is retold when it changes name.
On the skin, it is the 2015 structure that can be recognized. The opening is frankly citrus and unambiguous. The middle is floral and clear rather than sharp, which makes the announced ginger difficult to find. The end is dry and woody, short, with no claim to longevity. The perfumer, for their part, was never made public.
