What does Ginger (Perfume) smell like?

Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, and it is chosen mainly for leisure and everyday wear. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters read it as feminine, though a sizeable group finds it masculine.

The top opens with Sicilian red mandarin, ginger and bergamot, bright and lightly spicy. In the heart, mimosa and Kenyan geranium add a floral, green softness. The base settles on oakmoss and sandalwood, woody and slightly powdery, with sweet and oriental touches running through. Amouage Lyric Man and Acca Kappa Mimosa have a close profile.
