Limewood EDP
Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Hugo Reversed EDT
A solid, if short-lived, citrus-fresh punch, Hugo Reversed is the ultimate warm-weather grab-and-go. Don't expect miracles in longevity, but for the price, it's a no-brainer for those scorching hot days.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Limewood EDP
Limewood keeps the tart lime-and-basil contrast that makes Jo Malone's Lime Basil & Mandarin instantly recognisable, though the herbaceous thyme-iris nuance and clean patchouli-vetiver dry-down of the original are flattened into a simpler, more linear citrus-green wear.

Hugo Reversed
Seasons
Best For:
Spring
Summer
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Best For:
Casual
Sport
Also Works:
Office
Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile makes it suitable for office and casual wear, especially in warm weather. While many reviews note poor longevity and projection, this also means it won't overpower, making it ideal for the gym or quick errands.
Limewood
Seasons
Best For:
Spring
Summer
A zesty lime-basil citrus that thrives in warm weather; too thin and sharp to feel right in winter.
Occasions
Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office
Clean and versatile enough for the office and casual daily wear; too light for formal evenings.
