The review
Lime Basil & Mandarin scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Lime Basil & Mandarin.
Palermo Perfumes 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 $23 it costs 85% less than Lime Basil & Mandarin.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
