Discovering the house ‘El Ganso’ was a huge hit. I started testing ‘Bravo Monsieur’ out of obligation and was surprised by its resemblance to Santal 33, which led me to explore more of the brand and this fragrance, Limoncello Season. Basically, it smells like biting into a lime dusted with sugar and ginger zest giving it a very mild spice, with an apple-like base similar to Y EDP. It’s fresh, with a sweet touch but not cloying, ideal for the heat, like eating lemon ice cream, and leaves you feeling clean thanks to the musk. Perfect for a beach date, a family dinner on a hot afternoon, or to feel energetic and classy. It reminds me of the feeling of Dior Homme Cologne without being as sharp. If you like citrus, buy it blind; if not, give it a try, because thanks to it I regained hope that citrus can be great and not smell like synthetic cleaner. Scent: 9/10, Longevity: 8/10 (lasts on clothes for days), Sillage: 8/10 (good for the first 4 hours, then drops but is still noticeable up to 8 hours when close). Occasion: Daytime, temperate to very hot climates, casual wear.
This is a really rich fragrance, reminiscent of Chanel Edition Blanche but without the creaminess. It sounds more like Mancera’s Lemon Line; the only difference is that Limoncello is less sweet. If you can get it for under $45, it’s worth it: it’s a sweet lemon without being cloying. If price isn’t an issue, I’d go for Lemon Line for better performance, but if you’re looking for something similar to Mancera on a budget, this is your option, even if you sacrifice a bit of longevity.
Smells like Mancera’s Lemon Line but fresher. It’s unisex, nothing about it being just for men; it smells super good on women too.
I give it an 8 for the scent: ideal for gifting. It’s easy to like, perfect for hot days, whether during the day or out at the club or beach at night; you’ll definitely get noticed. Smells like lemon with a powdery touch, similar to the tonka in Issey Miyake’s Perfumazo. Totally recommended.
Limoncello Season by El Ganso doesn’t hide its inspiration from the Italian liqueur of the same name, suitable for after-dinner use outdoors in summer. Limoncello was born in Capri, macerating Amalfi ‘sfusato’ lemon peels with sugared syrup. Here in Spain, there’s one in Yepes with anise and herbs, and in the Dominican Republic with rum and green lemons. But this fragrance recalls the liqueur by adding vanilla, spicy notes, and medicinal resin, without smelling like a mousetrap. It’s not the classic cloyed citrus type like Álvarez Gómez or Dior Homme Cologne; it comes out alcoholic, subtly fruity and sugary, with softening musk and a powdery touch, perhaps a hint of dusty rose. Due to its mild warmth, I place it in less scorching hours, for spring or summer afternoons. Its cap with blue, white, and yellow stripes reminds me of the Tyrrhenian Sea and white villages in the sun. It’s an original, natural fragrance, genderless and not generic, invigorating and relaxing, cheerful and festive. It has excellent value for money and performs well. In my opinion, very pleasant and well-executed. It’s also true that my bottle has been macerating for over a year and now it’s on fire. Go on, get me another one!
Limoncello Season by El Ganso doesn’t hide its inspiration from the Italian digestif ‘limoncello,’ perfect for lighting up after a summer outdoor meal, with flies testing your patience to the limit and ants adding to the chaos. Limoncello, as we know it, was born in a bar near Villa San Michele on Capri, with the classic grandmother’s recipe story, made by macerating Amalfi ‘sfusato’ lemon peels in alcohol, possibly mixed with other citrus like citron and tangerine, and sweetened with water syrup and tons of sugar, making it syrupy. There are other varieties in Italy, like those from Lake Garda or Sicily, and outside the country too, such as in California or the Dominican Republic, made with white rum or vodka and Persian green lemons. Here in Spain, one is produced in Yepes, Toledo, since the 60s, called ‘Limoncillo’ by Licores Caro, which includes anise and aromatic plants and has nothing to do with the Dominican mamoncillo, which has juicy pulp and dangerous seeds for kids. So, there are several limoncellos. But let’s get to the point. ‘Limoncello Season’ definitely recalls the liqueur: lemons with vanilla, spicy, aromatic notes, and a touch of medicinal phenolic resin (without smelling like horse sweat or a mousetrap). Let’s not be mistaken: despite its citrus-limoncello chords and that slight ozony marine touch (calone, watermelon, cucumber, bamboo), it’s not the common refreshing chilled citrus. It’s not the classic Álvarez Gómez, nor Dior Homme Cologne, or that style. It opens very alcoholic, subtly fruity and sugary, nothing scary, softly musky and powdery, perhaps with a dusty rose note and some floral hints. Due to its slight warmth, I place it in less scorching hours, more suitable for late spring, late afternoons, and summer nights. In fact, the box says ‘The sun is out,’ which I interpret as ‘the sun has come out’ or ‘the sun is done.’ Let it go and take a walk around the port to grab a drink on a terrace. Sorrento, Positano, Salerno, Amalfi… Its cap with blue, white, and yellow stripes mimics the colors of the Tyrrhenian Sea and its sun-drenched white villages. Cliffs, hills, white, yellowish, pink, and ochre houses, steep alleys, and lemon groves overflowing with vitamin C. A porch, pots with geraniums, a table with a checkered tablecloth, mussel soup, algae fritters, and seafood pizza, well washed down with Lacryma Christi wine. And don’t forget the limoncello. It’s a somewhat flat but original fragrance, quite natural, unisex without being generic, invigorating and relaxing at the same time, cheerful and festive. It has an excellent quality/price ratio, and so far, it seems to perform well, considering its citrus character that doesn’t fade until the very end. In my opinion, very pleasant and well-executed. Also true is that my Limoncello Season has been aging for over a year and now it’s on fire. So, hey, let’s do it again. Come on, get me another bottle.
Incredible perfume. At first, when I applied it, I didn’t notice anything and thought the atomizer was terrible, but once it dried down, this fragrance is unbelievable—you get noticed wherever you go, and it smells amazing.
It’s a fragrance that instantly captivates lovers of quality citrus. Upon application, you feel fresh, clean, and full of energy, but unfortunately, its longevity fades in 4-5 hours, and the sillage is almost non-existent; very few people have noticed it. If you’re looking for longevity and compliments, this isn’t for you, but if you want to feel fresh and clean, it’s a great option at an accessible price.
I absolutely love fragrances from this brand; I already own three. Limoncello doesn’t hide anything—it delivers that fresh lemonade scent from start to finish, highlighting watery, acidic, sweet, and, as usual, a powdery softness. On the opening, I notice sharp lime, juicy green apple, and a hint of spice (ginger). As it dries down, it becomes sweeter but softer, with a blend of rose and apple that makes me feel fresh, like just after a shower. A lemon base transports you to a summer vacation day. The downside, as is typical of El Ganso, is the weak sillage; it stays as a lotion for your own delight (very relaxing). Lasts about 4-6 hours. Yes, an accessible price.
My jaw is on the floor and my mind is in the clouds. How did I make such a fool of myself? I tested this fragrance months ago and loved it, but in the end, I went with another. Today, with the heat, I passed by a store, saw it, bought it without testing because I already knew it and liked it a lot. 40€ for 100ml. As soon as I got in the car and sprayed it on my wrist, I couldn’t wait any longer. The smell is wonderful, very well made. I wish Nio by Xerjoff had gone in this direction; truly, a very beautiful scent. But it only lasted 30 minutes, the time it took me to get home. I have my nose pressed against my skin and I can’t smell it anymore. Someone said it’s expensive, I am. Although I have over 80 niche fragrances that cost a fortune, paying 40 euros for 30 minutes of existence seems like an insult to me. I can tolerate if it doesn’t project, but if it doesn’t smell at all, it’s like selling you water. Avoid it at all costs. What a pity.
My jaw dropped and my mind went blank. How did I make such a huge mistake? I tried this fragrance months ago and absolutely loved it, but in the end, I went with something else. Today, with the heat on, I walked into a store, saw it, and bought it without even testing it because I already knew it and liked it. 40€ for 100ml. As soon as I got in the car, I sprayed it on my hand—I couldn’t wait any longer. The scent is AMAZING, very well crafted. Mind what I’m saying: I wish Nio by Xerjoff had gone in this direction. Truly, a beautiful scent. But it lasted only 30 minutes, just enough to get home. I’m right up against my skin and I can’t smell it anymore. See, someone said it’s expensive? That’s me. Even though I own over 80 niche fragrances that cost a fortune, paying 40 euros for 30 minutes of existence feels like an insult. I can handle it not projecting, but if it doesn’t last, it’s like selling me water. Avoid it at all costs. What a shame.
Yes… but no. It’s not bad, but I just can’t find its point. Maybe I had high expectations or lacked understanding of what it’s trying to convey. Beyond imitating the Italian liqueur, it feels overly synthetic, a bit harsh. I think it’s the vanilla that screams its presence on top of the lemon. Other components are noticeable, but they’re buried under that gummy vanilla-lemon layer. I don’t find it fresh beyond the initial burst. It lasts hours but stays right on the skin. Opening my mind, perhaps that imprint is intentional and well-studied. Limoncello is a digestif—served ice-cold with ice to balance the sugar with the lemon’s acidity, giving a refreshing mouthfeel without quenching thirst; it’s sweet and has 30-35% alcohol. It’s a spirit drink of sugar and alcohol with a strong lemon aroma. Maybe Limoncello Season isn’t meant to refresh in the heat, but rather to complement joyful, relaxed moments—enjoying the sun, company, and a good drink after a meal.
Limoncello Season by El Ganso: It carries its classic DNA but is an extraordinary fragrance—fresh, classy, and clean. It’s luminous and sparkling. I perceive it as totally masculine; the blend of citrus, herbal notes, and musk is excellent, offering the versatility of being fresh without losing sophistication. For me, it’s a resounding yes. If you’re looking for something all-rounder, I’d say with eyes closed that this is it. In terms of scent, price, and performance, it’s a ‘Must’. Fantastic, reliable, and enjoyable. Scent: 8. Projection: 2 hours, solid. Longevity: 6-7 hours. Recommended.

Blind buy success! What a delight for hot weather. It starts sparkling with lemon and lots of musk, plus a touch of vanilla that adds sweetness. As it dries down, the lemon fades and it becomes musky-vanillic, reminiscent of lemon feet but not cloying; it stays fresh. Perfect for hot days. I tested it for two weeks and was surprised: the first two hours are addictive. Then it fades, and by the fifth hour it’s barely noticeable. It doesn’t last long, but at this price, reapplying doesn’t hurt. Suitable for any age, unisex (slightly masculine), and best for daytime wear in spring/summer with sun. Highly recommended.
Successful blind buy! What a delight for hot weather. It starts with a sparkling lemon sensation with a strong musk base and a touch of vanilla that gives it a slight sweetness. As it dries down, it loses that lemon spark and transforms into something musky-vanillic; it reminds me of a lemon foot, but don’t worry, it’s not cloying, it tends to be fresh. That makes it ideal for hot days; I’ve tested it for two weeks and I’m surprised, the bursts during the first two hours are addictive. Then the projection drops quite a bit, becoming almost imperceptible by the fifth hour. It’s not very long-lasting, but given its price, it doesn’t hurt to reapply. I see it for any age, unisex (slightly masculine), and daytime use in spring/summer with strong sun. Highly recommended.
Smells great, like a little lemon with sugar. The downside is it doesn’t last long for me, barely over 3 hours and then it’s gone. I use it mostly for walking around the house; it makes me feel revitalized.
Build a monument to Ramón Monegal! He has personality; it’s a creamy citrus with a nod to Italian liquor. Anyone who smells it will think it’s a designer fragrance worth 70-80 euros, yet it costs half that. It could last longer, but hitting 4 hours at this price is normal. He deserves an 8/10.
It could easily be the little cousin of AH Blanche Edition. Considering the price, this fragrance is a fantastic option to enjoy during hot weather, like a lemon cake just taken out of the fridge.
I’d bathe in this beautiful fragrance; if it lasted longer, it would be one of the best in the world. I don’t feel it resembles Chanel’s AHEB, simply because it has no need to resemble anything, because it already IS very good.
It’s an extraordinary scent, a sweet that isn’t cloying and is impossible to dislike. If you like citrus and fresh perfumes, this is a perfect option. It opens with a perfect citrus burst and turns vanilla-like. The problem is its weak projection, less than 2 hours unless you have a high-thrower’s arm, and its longevity is around 5 hours before fading to skin scent. You need to reapply after that time.
I fell for the positive comments, bought it, and it doesn’t convince me. The El Ganso brand smells more like LGBTQ+ than masculine.
Actually, it didn’t seem sweet to me. Without knowing it was sour lime, it gave me that ice lemonade palette vibe, with that characteristic sweet and sour touch of these frozen treats. It’s a type of “artificial” lemon, not synthetic, but the result of combining it with other things like in the palette; it even made me think of a frozen lemon margarita (I haven’t tried limoncello). It’s like a sweet lemon, but the sweetness tames the sourness, making the citrus more approachable, noble, and fresher than in other fragrances where the bergamot is realistic. Overall, it exceeded my expectations: I thought of it as a cold lemon pie or tart, but it’s more of a sour lemonade with lots of ice and a hint of alcohol. It’s a very cold scent, ideal for high heat; probably my next purchase.
Spectacular 👌 I don’t have much to say. El Ganso has very affordable and spot-on fragrances; all the ones I own from the line get compliments. Bravo, Monsieur. My favorites: After Game, Friday Edition, Sunday Mood, Part Time Hero. Sometimes we think the fragrance isn’t there, but other people can smell it, and that’s important.
Citrus, sweet, and a bit creamy, reminding me of the dry-down of Malibu Party in the Bay, but with a much softer lemon. It shares similarities with the Blanche edition from P/D. It’s masculine and versatile, incredibly photorealistic with commercial limoncellos, though I would have liked a colder touch to round it out like a prepared limoncello rather than straight from the bottle. At a very good price, with balanced ingredients and a simple but beautiful bottle (the cap is a hit), it’s a great option to gift because in MX I haven’t seen anyone own fragrances from El Ganso. (8.5/10).
What a beast of a fragrance, ladies and gentlemen, pure brutality
Citrus opening with clean, well-integrated lime and lemon. What makes it unique is that it avoids the fleeting nature of citrus: soon it wraps in something creamy and crisp, giving it an unexpected formality, evoking a lighter, sunnier version of Dior Sauvage EDT. Ideal for daily wear or work: it brings light and order without being intrusive. Note: the atomizer shoots a thin stream, so you need to hold it back and aim well. In summary: an interesting proposal in the fresh world, with a controlled and elegant tone.
So rich lemon, I want it
