What does Ginger smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of ratings is small, so these figures are tentative. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine.

The top holds orange, mandarin orange, petitgrain, pink pepper and ginger, so citrus and spice sit side by side. In the heart, pomegranate, red berries and magnolia add a fruity sweetness. The base of musk, tonka bean and benzoin leaves a soft, powdery floor. Heidi Klum Shine and Gritti Puro have a close profile.
