noun, feminine/bɛʁ.ɡa.mɔt/plural: bergamotes
bergamot, a pear cultivar; bergamot, a citrus cultivar; the scent of such a citrus used in perfumery; a bonbon treated with such a perfume
Borrowed from Italian bergamotta, deemed a corruption of Ottoman Turkish بك آرمودی (beg armudu, literally “a lord's pear”), denoting originally a fattish kind of pear, whereafter the European word developed the sense of a fruit of a certain citrus cultivar in the late 17th century.
