Lime & Nutmeg is a limited seasonal fragrance from the 4711 Acqua Colonia line, created by Geza Schön — the very avant-garde perfumer behind the cult Escentric Molecules line. The composition is deliberately minimalist: just two notes built on contrast. Juicy, sweet-sour lime gives a sparkling, tonic opening — bright and invigorating, like a sunny day by the sea. It is countered by nutmeg — spicy, warm, with an aphrodisiac character, which gradually comes to the fore and leaves a woody-spicy, enveloping trail. The development is very smooth: the freshness of lime remains a constant background, while the spice of nutmeg adds depth without heaviness.

How to wear
Ideal for spring and summer, especially in hot weather. Wear it in the daytime — to work, when travelling, on sweltering days or as a refreshing aftershave. Thanks to its light concentration it can be applied generously to the pulse points. Complete the look with light summer fabrics. The fragrance will underline your vigour, subtle taste and interest in unconventional, conceptual readings of classic cologne — unisex, for those who love simple yet thoughtful compositions from visionary authors.
