Latest Reviews of Imperial Lime
This fragrance smells of lime, clary sage, musk, and a little bit of oakmoss. The lime note in this is far better than the candied lemon note masquerading as 'lime' in Anglia Spiced Lime. The opening reminds me a bit of Taylor of Old Bond Street's Victorian Lime cologne. This fragrance has soft projection; in 2 hours the lime and clary sage disappear, and it becomes a soft musk. Overall it's an ok lime cologne but I prefer Taylor of Old Bond Street's.3.5/5
I really like Imperial Lime. It's not particularly commercial and is a bit old-fashioned. Very clean lime peel scent and it lasts for about 5 hours on me. Think Edwardian barber shop in St. James's.

Very close to Taylor's Victorian Limes(both are related to The Royal Yacht Club cologne) of which the Anglia rendition has a tad more Grapefruit. Very fresh and one of the finest "Lime" colognes I've had the pleasure of wearing.
