West Indian Lime
by Crabtree & Evelyn

This is a lime fragrance without the sharp zest.It is a more restrained and nicely formulated variant on the the citrus theme. The opening is still a lush,green and refreshing experience, but it feels more like a proper cologne than some lime based curio. It dries down into a light woody citrus, with a delicate floral garnish, and it is very deftly done. Sadly, as is the way with many fragrances of this type, its brevity is its one big flaw. The delightful accords, so lovingly created, dwindle inside about four hours. Nevertheless, for the pleasure it gave me, I still give it a thumbs up.

I have fallen head over heals for this cologne! It reminds me of days gone by, it has maturity and freshness. I think a way I would describe this cologne is that it is for men, not boys! It is not about in your face "here I am" but more, "I am here but am not shouting about it!"

The fragrance starts of very limey but give it an hour and the complexity really starts to shine through, there are subtle layers of spice and fruit but not sweet! This fragrance has depth and improves throughout the day, it changes it's charector subtly which I love.

I would say this cologne could be worn for any occasion and is suitible for a man who knows himself and has nothing to prove to the world, a man who has maturity but spice as well!

This scent is actually quite good. It starts off with a strong lime accord but the dry down smells to me completely different - a sweet somewhat familiar and unique scent that lasts all day. I would definetly recommend this as an every day 'not sure what to wear this will do' type scent. Fresh, easy but distinctive and more interesting than your normal citrus fragrance.
