St. James of London - Zwarte Peper & Limoen - Eau de Cologne 50 ml

The black pepper comes through first, warm and spicy, then the lime cuts in crisp and clean—lasts a good six hours on my skin without being overwhelming.

The Persian lime note is bright and clean, not at all sugary, and it cuts through the pepper beautifully. I've been wearing it for a week now and the scent lasts a solid 5-6 hours on my skin, which is impressive for a cologne. This one's definitely earned a permanent spot in my rotation.

The peppercorn oil gives it a warm, spicy depth that keeps the lime from being too sweet, and it wears close to the skin for hours without shouting. I've gotten three compliments in one day wearing this to the office. The 50 ml bottle is perfect for my travel kit too.
