Here's another thread that I had with the same question:

I now use: CF Lime and Myrsol.
Ogallala bay rum with limes and peppercorns is not a bad way to go. Plus the scent lasts for a bit
Clubman lime sec! No doubt about it!!!!
I am addicted to the Royall Lymes splash. After a shave on these hot & muggy days, it is bliss

So many to choose from! I have been pretty partial to Royall Lyme, but I also go to Citrocol, Old Spice Fresh Lime (Shulton India), and on the vintage side I really enjoy Avon Island Lime and Aqua Velva Frost Lime.
I like vintage Lime scents. They seem to have a more realistic lime scent. I love the vintage Old Spice Lime AS. English Leather also did a very nice Lime AS.

English Leather Lime was my all time favorite AS but it's way too pricey on eBay. Lime Sec is my current go to. I'm not a fan of Royall Lyme. Too sharp for my nose.

I'll let you know if I ever find one! Pinaud (clubman) Lime Sec starts out smelling like a real sweet lime lollipop, which I don't mind, but fades quickly into a sharp soapy scent. I don't get any lime with Royall Lime. St. Lucia Citrocol Lime is nice for the 3 minutes that it lasts.
Lime soaps are much easier, and smell great, but don't last either.
I do love Dominica Bay Rum with Lime, but it is a Bay Rum more than a lime.
My favorite is Saint Charles Shave Lime Splash.

It is not completely lime but SCS Bay Rum with a twist has some lime in it.

Well, I only have one lime-scented aftershave. I recently picked up the C&E West Indian Lime balm. It's not really a straight lime scent, but it's wonderfully smoothing and what fragrance there is seems to linger quite a while.

My favorite Lime aftershave is by far Acolado Glacial. Not only does it smell like fresh cut limes, it will freeze you like Osage Rub. I was in Aruba on business for two months and used it exclusively.
