I know, my dear Watson, that you share my love of all that is bizarre and outside the conventions and humdrum routine of everyday life.
Tweed and crisp linen, lime-tinged aftershave, the sleek steel and oil of a well-cared for service revolver, and the echo of a Jezail bullet shell.
It was on a bitterly cold and frosty morning during the winter of ‘97 that I was awakened by a tugging at my shoulder. It was Holmes. The candle in his hand shone upon his eager, stooping face and told me at a glance that something was amiss.
“Come, Watson, come!” he cried. “The game is afoot. Not a word! Into your clothes and come!”
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
The End of All Things: empty white musk and mint seeped with solemn lavender, doleful patchouli and vetiver, scythe-sharp yuzu and lime, with geranium bourbon, white sandalwood and calla lily.
A midnight scent, evoking images of flickering golden firelight reflecting off the sheen of glistening skin and the jerking shadows of bodies suffused with spiritual ecstasy. A deep, powerful, resonant blend of myrrh, patchouli, vetiver, lime, vanilla, pine, almond and clove.
A living electrical battery, Volt plays the wiseass clown for his teammates, using humor to mask his awkwardness and his need for acceptance.
Leather with a shock of eucalyptus, green mint, elemi, ravintsara and lime.
Ancient, fossilized amber resins, ritual incense, witching herbs, and scorched linen enveloped in a darkly glowing halo of cinders and smoke.
Proceeds from the sale of this scent are helping to fund Burned! Librarians tell a new colleague of the book that burned so many, using motion graphic animation for the true tale-within-a-tale, in this overdue dark comedic film where the witches get to burn back. A little Princess Bride, a dash of Drunk History, all to reclaim the narrative.

I have bought this multiple times and it is just such a manly scent and pairs delightfully with Sherlock (go figure). I’m horrible at picking out scents, but it almost smells like an aftershave with hints of lime and idk, just old-timeyness. Unfortunately, I’m out and have been on the waitlist for a very long time (Maybe I just missed the window?). I really hope it hasn’t been discontinued

This is a very clean and sharp scent. The lime is there but when mixed with the linen smell it turns into a soapy scent with a hint of citrus. Again, very fresh and clean. I like it.

This was a freebie and happily so! I tried it on both myself and my husband. On me the lime notes were predominant: line, lime flower, sexy aftershave and a scent like skin rubbing on steel. On my husband it was almost straight to the metallic notes with only a memory of the other scents.

I was most excited about this imp out of my order (Sherlock was unavailable) and it didn’t disappoint in the least. I first detected lime with a hint of metallic sweetness to it. My husband wanted to smell it as well and his reaction was, “Pepsi. Smells like Pepsi.” I forced him to wear some because he wasn’t too keen on the others I ordered and the perfume dried down on him oak first and finished with baby powder. He said he could see my point but he liked it anyway. I love it and it makes me feel a little closer to one of my favorite story lines of all time. Excellent job!

Ooh, lime and… I swear, pine! That must be the tobacco mixing with the lime. It’s a very pretty masculine scent.

Fresh from the imp, this is like a pleasantly old-fashioned men’s cologne. On my skin, tobacco asserts itself, and maybe just a tinge of gunpowder; I would not be surprised if Dr. Watson’s coat smelled like this.
Now, I have no particular occasion to smell like Dr. Watson’s coat, so I can’t see myself with a larger size of this scent; HOWEVER,layered with the Sherlock Holmes scent (which I reviewed a little less enthusiastically), you get something that must smell very much like the parlor at 221 B Baker Street. For that reason, I bumped it up from a 3 to a 4 (and I might just put a dab of each on and trot out the Jeremy Brett-Sherlock Holmes DVDs for a marathon.)
