Demeter Fragrance Library Blood Lime is a Cologne launched in 2016. Blood Lime opens with Blood Orange and Lime. Demeter Fragrance Library's Blood Lime carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a fleeting blast of zesty citrus that vanishes quicker than your weekend plans. It's divisive, with some hailing its fresh brightness and others lambasting its artificiality and non-existent longevity. Don't expect a masterpiece; do expect a momentary pick-me-up.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Built on citrus, fresh spicy and conifer - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Given its extremely poor longevity and sillage, alongside its fresh, clean citrus profile, this is best suited for fleeting casual wear or a post-gym spritz. It's too weak for formal occasions or dates, but perfectly inoffensive for a quick refresh or an office environment where strong scents are unwelcome.

Ingredients and allergens

DENATURED ALCOHOL, CAPRYLIC/CAPRYC TRIGLYCERIDE, FRAGRANCE, WATER.

From a shop in the United Kingdom. Boxes sold in other countries can differ.

Lists change between batches and markets, so check the box of the bottle you have. "Parfum" covers substances the label does not name, and we highlight only the allergens we could match. If you have a diagnosed allergy, look for the name your clinic gave you on your own packaging.

About

Imagine slicing into a vibrant blood orange, its sweet-tart juice mingling with the sharp, green tang of fresh lime. That's your opening here: a brisk, effervescent burst of citrus. As it settles, a clean, almost soapy freshness emerges, underpinned by a subtle, unexpected hint of cool, aromatic conifer. It's a simple, straightforward scent, crisp and clean from start to finish, though its presence is notoriously short-lived.
