Sumo de Lima

I was worried lime would read cheap or candy-like, but this is the real thing — tart peel, a little bitter, nothing sugary. It stays bright for hours instead of vanishing in ten minutes like most citrus scents I've tried. Genuinely the most artistic citrus fragrance I own.

The lime here smells like you just cut one open on a hot day, zesty and bright rather than candy-sweet. It fades into something softer after an hour or so, which I actually liked. Easily the most realistic citrus I've worn.

I've tried a lot of lime scents that end up smelling like candy or cleaning spray, but this one actually keeps that bitter rind edge. It fades into something warmer after an hour, which I didn't expect from a citrus. Genuinely wearable without being sharp.
