Lime aftershaves with longevity

[doctordial]

Can anyone suggest a lime aftershave that has some staying power? I have Royall Lyme which I like very much, but it doesn't last long. I also have Stirling lime which won't even let you get out of the door before it's gone. Stirlings MITA has SOME staying power and I get compliments on it.

So far, the longest lasting one I have found is vintage Avon Island Lime.

Citrus scents in aftershaves don't tend to last very long, unfortunately. You could try an EDT like Guerlain Homme L'Eau de Boisee.

Agree with others above. Lime is an AWESOME scent...it just does not last all that long. Clubman Citrus Musk lasts longer than some...but not 100% lime. I also like to add Clubman Lime Sec to other aftershaves to give them a Lime-iness. An example is adding some Lime Sec to Fine Platinum....kind of a cool combo for me.

I have two aftershaves I would consider to be lime heavy if not completely lime. Gabels Drops of Lime...that doesn't last long. Black Ship Grooming Black Beard is a very lime forward Bay Rum...it's mentholated. That has some legs, but I still wouldn't consider it edt or cologne strength. I do smell it throughout the day though. Several hours at least. The Bay Rum in it really takes a back seat to the lime, so it might work for you.

BION, I find Pinaud lime to be longest-lasting of my various lime aftershaves!
albeit, it's labeled as a cologne, but priced/packed as aftershave.

Bootlegger's Lime Bay Rum. Lots of wonderful lime and lasts a very long time.

Island Lime is about the best one out there. While supplies last......

Avon Island Lime x3.

Pinaud Lime Sec does smell synthetic next to it - though better than no lime at all!

Why not create your own? Perfumers alcohol, distilled water, castor oil or glycerine, Lime essential oil. Perhaps another EO to add something such as Bergamot...

PAA Bay Rums and Fine American Blend seem to last for me.

Pinaud Lime Sec. Cheap and it lasts for the greater part of the day.

This is my experience as well. My favourite citrus fragrance is Acqua di Parma Bergamotto di Calabria.

Wonderful. I also love Colonia.

Taylor makes a pretty nice lime: Original 74 (I'm pretty sure).

Acqua di Parma Colonia was first introduced in 1916 and today it is still the exact same formula.

Since then it has been one of the finest Italian Signature fragrances.
It is my Signature fragrance, Sir.
