What does Black Ginger (Cologne) smell like?
The scent reads as a single whole rather than a layered pyramid. The sharp, peppery side of black ginger deepens with eastern spices, while ginger flower adds a soft floral touch. A fresh, citrusy feel leads, and fruity and powdery touches take the edge off the oriental spice, with a slightly synthetic brightness sitting in the background. Kenzo KenzoKi Blissful Ginger Fizz and Hermès Tutti Twilly d'Hermès have a close profile.
