Perfumes with lime
Lime smells sharp, sour, green and slightly sweet, a citrus greener, juicier and more tropical than lemon that recalls a fresh wedge of lime in a cocktail glass. It comes from the fruit of Citrus aurantiifolia and related lime species, with Mexico and Peru among the main producers.
Cold-pressed lime oil smells fresh and peely, while distilled lime oil is sweeter and closer to lime soda. Lime sits almost always among the top notes. It pairs well with mint, basil, bergamot, ginger, coconut, vetiver and musk, and it gives summery compositions a crisp, zesty opening.
lime appears in 3,542 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue and is used mostly as a top note.
