Crabtree & Evelyn West Indian Lime is a Cologne launched in 2007. West Indian Lime opens with Lemon, Lime, Orange Blossom, and Vetiver, settles into a heart of Nutmeg, Ginger, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Juniper. Crabtree & Evelyn's West Indian Lime carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a clean, classic lime scent that evokes nostalgia for a bygone era, with a divisive streak for some who find it a bit too old-school or even synthetic. If you find a vintage bottle for a good price, snap it up.

Scent Profile

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its fresh and clean citrus-aromatic profile, often described as a 'barbershop in a bottle,' makes it excellent for casual wear or after a workout. While it's light enough for the office, its moderate longevity and sillage mean it won't overwhelm, and reviewers often mention wearing it casually.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

It opens with a zesty burst of fresh lime and lemon, brightened by delicate orange blossom. As it settles, a clean, barbershop-esque blend of nutmeg, ginger, and coriander emerges, adding a subtle spicy warmth. The dry-down is a soft, woody embrace of juniper, sandalwood, and cedar, creating a refined and comforting finish that keeps the citrus zing alive.
