Esprit de Bergamot

Take:
  • 5 Imperial fluid drachms oil of bergamot (finest, recent)
  • 1/2 fluid drachm oil of rose-geranium 
  • 1/2 fluid drachm oil of verbena
  • 2 fluid drachm essence of ambergris
  • 1 fluid drachms; essence of musk
  • 1 pint rectified spirit

Mix. Very fine.

For a second quality (usually called best),
1 quart of spirit (70 per cent.) is used; for a third quality, 3 to 4 pints at proof.
