Laboratorio Olfattivo Limone is a Cologne launched in 2021, created by Jean-Claude Ellena. Limone opens with Lemon, Petitgrain, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Musk. Laboratorio Olfattivo's Limone carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

A beautiful, transparent lemon, masterfully crafted by Ellena, but utterly fleeting. This 'parfum cologne' means what it says: it's a fleeting olfactory whisper, perfect for a quick, energising burst, but don't expect it to last.

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

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and transparent citrus profile makes it ideal for casual wear and daily use. The extremely poor longevity and sillage mean it's unobtrusive for the office but disappears too quickly for a date or formal event, where more presence is desired.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Limone opens with an incredibly realistic, zesty lemon that's bright, tart, and uplifting. A green, slightly bitter petitgrain note quickly emerges, bringing a leafy, natural citrus grove feel. Underneath, a subtle musk provides a clean, airy base, with a hint of spicy ginger adding a touch of sparkling complexity to this otherwise pure citrus experience.
