Pros & Cons
- ✅ Inspired by the unscented flowers of Australian Native Ginger, this is a fresh, sparkling ginger cocktail that is fruity, dry, and so fizzy that I am tempted to drink it.
- ✅ It's energizing and upbeat, but so summer-stylish that it almost cries out for well-cut linen trousers and some fly shades.
- ✅ Fresh without edgy, sharp without piercing, floral without heady, and just this side of tropical, this is everything a ginger scent should be.
- ✅ A verve-y, aromatic, sophisticated scent that lives up to its name.
- ✅ Fresh, sparkling, and so fizzy that I am tempted to drink it.
- ✅ Smells like sunshine bottled – bright, tropical, and uplifting.
- ✅ Energizing and upbeat, but so summer-stylish that it almost cries out for well-cut linen trousers and some fly shades.
- ❌ Projection is moderate and it won't satisfy those expecting strong ginger spice.
- ❌ If you want a bold, spicy ginger scent, this isn't it.
- ❌ Some may find the vanilla dry-down slightly sweet.
