Limes vs No 89

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.

No. 89 is a well-regarded classic fragrance that successfully bridges old-school sophistication with modern wearability, though its 'mature' character polarizes opinions. Most community members praise its quality and timelessness, while some find it too elderly-smelling, making it best suited for those who appreciate vintage British fragrances regardless of age.
