Hello,
My wife loves the smell of lime, so I was wondering if you had any recommendations for a clean, lime based perfume. She's not a fan of musky smells too.

Thanks!

One of my favorites is Jo Malone Sweet Lime and Cedar.
I think this might be just what your wife would like.

Comme des Garcons series 8 Lime is a fresh smelling lime and quite a good price.
Theres West Indian Lime by Crabtree & Evelyn and also one by Geo F Trumper called Extract of West Indian Limes which didn't smell bad at all when I tried a sample last year.

Ormonde Jayne Frangipani has a wonderful note of lime.

Tilleul by Parfum D'Orsay. A lovely linden/lime scent.

Okay, the Comte (in real life) was not really a perfumer, but this, I think, is one of Olivia Giacobetti's creations!
