Details & care
What it is: A fragrance that surrounds your skin in an enticing aroma that's impossible to resist.
Fragrance story: Ancient Chinese tradition holds that where there's yin, there must be yang. And so the fragrant fire of spicy ginger is balanced by the refreshing zeal of bergamot, lemon and lime to create a sensuous synergy between warm and cool, energy and calm, tempest and tranquility.
How to use: Spray on all over as desired. Pay particular attention to pulse points on your neck, wrists and inside your elbows to enhance the fragrance's warming, sensual characteristics.

Perfect
Light, clean and crisp - and I have allergies, but this does not trigger them. Love this scent.

Ummmmm
I bought on the Nordstrom anniversary sale and really wanted to love this but when you spray it at first it smells like mosquito repellent. After it settles in the skin it smells sweeter like your brewing a tea.

No, it’s not the same
It’s not the same as it used to be. I say this because I still have one of the original bottles. Though the smell overall starts off the same, the original had a rich undertone which this one doesnt have. Plus the old one would last all day, and this is gone in 15 minutes. So sad.

Ginger skin scent
Nice light scent. But it isn't long-lasting (the fragrance from the roller ball version offered a few years back was better).

For r everyday use
Love this light, fresh scent. I wear it daily. Not over powering or strong. This is one of my all time favorite fragrances.

Perennial favorite.
I've worn Ginger Essence for over 30 years and it will always be my favorite. Within the last two weeks I had someone stop me while I was out shopping and tell me, "you smell amazing." It was the Ginger Essence! One strategic spritz on my body at the beginning of the day is all it takes, and I am very sensitive to scent overuse. This is truly the best.

Like I've just left the spa...
I've been searching for a light and clean scent that makes me feel like I've just left the spa. This reminds me of that post-massage/facial appointment after you've lathered on the resort spa's products. My boyfriend likes it too. Deducted 1 start for its staying power but the price point makes it a great product still. Can't wait to pair it with the matching body cream and wash :-)
