So on my wet shaving safari on Saturday I found some after shave at Bath & Body Works called White Citrus. I liked it, but didn't actually buy it, but I like the idea of I guess a complex citrus with a dominant lime note. Anyone have any favorites that sound like that? Or I guess, smell like that?

I think I may have to check those out.
Royall Lymes, Pinaud Citrus Musk
Old Spice Lime from Shulton India or vintage. You may also try some of the various Bay Rums featuring citrus.
I quite enjoy Captain's Choice Lime Aftershave
Bootlegger's Bay Rum with Lime
Chanel pour Monsieur AS has a very nive citrus opening
+1 on Citrus Musk. This is my go to warm weather splash. I just wish the scent wasn't so fleeting.
St. Charles Shave Lime splash for me.

TOBS #74 Victorian Lime

Thanks (I think) for all the suggestions. I wish there was a way to smell them without buying a bottle of each.
I second TOBS #74 Victorian Lime for a good lime scent. Pinaud Citrus Musk is a favorite of mine that gets a lot of use (it's even good through the hair after a shower). I love the stuff. But to me, lime is not the prominent note. Lime is ever present, but it's always in the background. On application, it's strong in lemongrass and the lime is a base scent along with musk; a very nice and unique mix. As it dries down, the lemongrass eases up and the musk opens up, again with a nice lime in the background. This stuff is great! The only complaint is that it only lasts about 15 minutes, then fades to a barely perceptible clean sort of scent.
SCS Mediterranean Citrus is outstanding. There is some lemon, lime, maybe some floral and the slightest hint of menthol.
Castle Forbes Lime or T&H West Indies Lime should be added to the collection you're bound to end up with! 
No one mentioned Razorock Evil Eye aftershave wax yet? Great sweet lime scent, easy application, nice matte finish.
Very interested to try the expensive Trumper West Indian Lime Skin Food and the cheaper Stephan's island lime.

Captain's Choice Lime Aftershave is the best I've found so far. No lime candy scent like some...just smells like freshly squeezed lime and peel.
You know, I see the word wax, and I think thick, greasy mess on my already greasy face. Is this not the case?
