About

Lime & Basil by The Perfume Edit is a crisp and invigorating blend dominated by the zestiness of lime and the aromatic depth of basil. These two primary notes are supported by subtle hints of bergamot and a gentle woody base, creating a fragrance that evokes a lively stroll through a citrus grove spilling into an herb garden.
