The review

On paper, Lima is a strong bet if you want Lime Basil & Mandarin for less.

Noted Aromas sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Lime Basil & Mandarin's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 per 100ml it costs 78% less than Lime Basil & Mandarin — the 2nd cheapest of 4 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Noted Aromas publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on lime, mandarin orange and bergamot, turns to basil, iris and lilac, and settles into patchouli and vetiver. That is the brief Lima is working from.

Top

  • lime
  • mandarin orange
  • bergamot

Heart

  • basil
  • iris
  • lilac

Base

  • patchouli
  • vetiver
Zesty lime cut with peppery basil, the crisp cologne every Jo Malone counter smells of.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 5 twins of Jo Malone London Lime Basil & Mandarin we can price, Lima is number 2 on price per 100ml.

  1. 01 The Essence Vault Lime, Basil and Mandarin $32/100ml
