      ‘Set beneath a sunlit canopy of lush tropical rainforest, the scent evokes an image of native citrus trees drawing life from nearby cascading fresh waterfalls. With its invigorating opening of Australian finger lime and coriander, Bohemian Lime mellows to reveal blissful grounding notes of vetiver, cedar wood and sandalwood. Bohemian Lime is a carefree fragrance for women and men and an ode to Byron Bay, Australia’s premier free-spirited tropical enclave and the place where the country first meets the sun.’ – Goldfield & Banks

      I wore Bohemian Lime alongside Pacific Rock Moss. Whereas the latter still stands out to me, Bohemian Lime is not as great as I wanted it to be.

      This all comes down to texture. I love the scent of lime and so do I in this fragrance. Sharp, zesty lime with the usual greener pairings and there is nothing wrong with that. As also quite often is the case, I find that texture-wise the green-lime combination is pushed to a airy, but harsher texture (likely in favor of performance), that I don’t love. This is something I also encounter in Amouage Search, Xerjoff Renaissance or Blackcliff Limewood. I haven’t tried any of them side by side, but it would not surprise me if I like Bohemian Lime most; it feels less aromatic. Still, for me, this could’ve been more watery and with a lighter base and I would gladly accept a shorter-lived wear in that case.

      Still, a good fragrance and a solid option for lime, although my favorite remains Guerlain Homme EDP and I prefer Pacific Rock Moss as a fresh Goldfield & Banks.
