I've got the No. 74 Original which might also serve for summer use, is the Lime similar but with.... lime?

Hart, I don't recall ever having used the original and can't comment on it. The No. 74 Victoria Lime has been a regular summer splash.

Talking about real Eau de Cologne, my favorite one is classic 4711.

How does the Lime Sec compare to the Citrus Musk?

The Lime has a more robust scent/bite IMO,,,,,,,,,,,,the Citrus Mush is more subdued,,,,, love them both. I am guessing that the Lime remains active a bit longer,,, I have never measured the time so to speak.

This one very often since it is a new addition to the lot.



I also use a lot of Mugler Cologne and quite often Fahrenheit.

When you use the clubman cologne's do you use them as an after splash as well? Or do you use the original then after it wears off use the cologne?

I only put the cologne on after witch hazel,,, it's one or the other,,,I don't double up.

Thanks, I used it for the first time today loved the smell not as good post splash as the original....
