Smells like having a cup of tea in the middle of Sephora surrounded by teenagers spraying cheap designer perfumes. No wait, it's more like a cup of tea that someone has squirted a dollop of generic men's shower gel into. I wanted to try this perfume for the longest time and I'm thoroughly underwhelmed so far. It may even be a scrubber, it's starting to annoy me after 15 minutes.
Photorealistic tea with ginger cookies. The ginger adds a brightness to the darker tea notes that makes this a year round scent.
This is the perfect winter fragrance for me...evokes a mulled wine Christmas type of vibe... it's warm and comforting but sexy too. Another great fragrance from Serge Lutens... Five O'Clock Gingembre strikes such a careful and well observed balance of spice and sweetness, it's addictive. Anybody who likes The One by D&G should like this despite them smelling quite different I think they evoke a similar classy, soft mood. The ginger in the title might put some off and although it's prominent it's in a very refined way. To put it another way... it's more of the sweet (gingerbread) sense than the savory, in your face strength of root ginger. Perfectly unisex too, the woodiness comes out a little more on my skin but generally drys down with a cosy cinnamon sweetness. Gorgegous juice...I'm going to hammer this over the winter it has great sillage and the Longevity ain't bad either. Top marks Serge!
Strong, fiery ginger steeped in sticky, honeyed amber, wound with wisps of smoky lapsong souchang. Yet for all this deep, dusky luxuriance, it is surprisingly sheer...as if a silken scarf had been dipped in this concoction, and hung in a sunlit window to dry. The scent clings to the fabric and is lightly released as one knots and folds it about ones throat.
