Limes vs Shalimar Eau de Parfum

The community has mixed feelings about Floris fragrances, particularly 'Limes' and the Floris brand generally. While appreciated for their traditional, sophisticated character that appeals to older collectors and those seeking classic scents, the brand is criticized for weak longevity and performance, with most fragrances lasting only 1-3 hours. The brand is underrepresented in the subreddit's discussions.

Shalimar is celebrated by the r/fragrance community as a landmark fragrance that deserves recognition despite its age, praised for its sensual character and impressive performance. The community appreciates it as a historic female-marketed perfume that breaks the mold of contemporary fragrances, with strong longevity and a beautiful evolution throughout wear.
