This is a good Lime scent that does hold up in soap. Use with other citruses like Grapefruit. Has a good solid depth.

This oil smells like green citrus, it is clean and sharp. It’s very invigorating and perfumed. It’s fresh, but still dense; not as light as other citrus. It is more on the acidic side of citrus zest that on the sweet one although you can still feel that velvety sweetness of lime. I love it, and like some others said, it’s really near to the real fruit.

This smells exactly like a real lime. No fake, chemical smelling lime, just true lime. This is a great one to use for soapmaking - good on its own or blended with lavender or eucalyptus. It is sweet and refreshing and soaps with this essential oil in them always sell out very quickly.

Citrus does not usually hold up in cp soap, but I have found that this essential oil does. It is great for a refreshing morning blend or with cypress for a men's product. Will buy again.

Fresh limes! Smell really really good, citrusy and crispy lime.

I like that this lime is crisp and fresh, like a real lime as opposed to some others I've tried which can be cloying and sweet. I use lime eo in aftershave and cp soap and am impressed with the quality of this oil. Oh, and it's affordable too. Bonus!

This lime is fun and great to add for adults or children alike; therefore, you can't go wrong!

Sorry I had to, margarita anyone because this EO has spunk, very zingy refreshing and a top seller in my products.

Great crisp Lime scent. It reminds me a lot of the hardy scent in the peeling of a lime. Yes citrus, but also the rough earthy smell that you get when you cut limes fresh. Use a little more than normal to get that scent to come out in CP soaps.

i use this with a blend of other EO's to make a room spray. i use it when i need a mood lifter and energy boost when i'm on the treadmill. the smell is wonderful and fresh and sometimes i put four drops on a piece of cotton then throw it in the dryer with my clothes. give a fantastic scent to the clothes when they are dry. This is a true EO.no oily residue left behind on blotting paper.
