Was it really the gardener
Gin and tonic with salt at the golf club
the grass is short the spice is hot
Gentleman without beard in fine thread cuts soapy herbs from the moss.

Yatagan has described it very nicely in his own way - the good guy has a lot of head start
i have to think of 007 here Sean
Connery golf scene forest meadow spring all tipsy. and drink gin and of course have no beard in the herb bed lies a bar of curd soap next to a damp ashtray but a mysterious oriental sneaks in and wants to talk about aftershave. the gardener cuts the conifers bare
who has found the glove?

that should be British and vintage
i think it's well made, especially the opening is heavenly citrusy herbal bright boozy like in the rich man's club cold smoke and
good distinguished mood hint of caraway neat nutmeg hardly cinnamon stays green and it's spring here I think in a few years I'll be ready for it the original must be monster

Thanks Schoibskr for the testing opportunity.

Classic English Barbershop...
This is a review of the vintage juice from Crown Perfumery, not the Anglia reissue...

I get a primary mixture of lime, basil and clove, with nutmeg and cinnamon playing a strong supporting role as well. I really do not get any lemon, as is suggested from the pyramid above, nor vetiver in the base. That said, oakmoss is definitely there to wind things down, coupling with the lime and spice mixture late in the scent's development until the very end.

Spiced Limes is a relatively linear scent that has tremendous staying power, strength and projection. This stuff is so potent that I wouldn't dare wearing more than one spray to the office for fear of being sent home. That said, it is great smelling and highly recommended. One of the best from the now defunct Crown Perfumery. If the Anglia re-issue is true to the Crown release, folks are in for an inexpensive treat. If not, vintage Crown juice is still available on eBay for silly money the last time I checked. One of the best values around, and the longest lasting lime scent I have tried to date by far. 4 out of 5 stars.
