Surprising
I had a pleasant time in this yesterday.
My motivation in purchasing this six months ago was to serve as an aftershave, having used 4711 in the same manner.
So in referencing 4711 to this, I expected Lime and Nutmeg to act the same in hold as well citrus freshness.
And it does.
However, I have been pleasantly surprise with the stronger hold than perceived as well as a sweeter/musky depth it emits.
There's a little more than nutmeg in this! The nutmeg couldn't be the only note providing such sweet musk. ( I love nutmeg btw)
Is it Tonka perhaps? The sweetness is mild but it's there.
Yet, the sweetness never takes away from the lime, the exceptional lime, in this. It's a bitter lime, familiar, maybe it's the bitterness that is adding to the sweeter tones I'm experiencing.
Another surprise with Lime and Nutmeg ...is that it reminds me of a favorite fragrance I use to love, from Bath and Body Works called 'Coconut, Lime, Verbena'. It's the sweet musk I wasn't anticipating in Lime and Nutmeg that gives me those vibes.
(BTW: there is no coconut in Lime and Nutmeg)
Due to deeper base note, this hold more like a light-ish toilette, than a cologne. It's not a pronounce fragrance or anything, but the lime and sweet musk still exist close to the skin well after 4 hours, unlike famous colognes such as Guerlain Eau De Imperiale and Fleurs De Cedrat, ...or ..well...4711.
Lime and Nutmeg is a pleasant surprise that I can't stop sniffing and surprisingly, can't stop applying, although multiple time a day, but less than 4711
