Origins Ginger Essence Sensuous Skin Scent Eau de Toilette Review

The Ginger Essence fragrance was rumoured to be discontinued for nearly a year. Luckily, Origins was just updating it. Here’s everything you need to know about its renovation…


This Fragrance Smells Like…

Citrus and spice. It’s the perfect blend of fresh and spicy. It’s zingy and bright, which is down to the citrus notes of bergamot, lemon and lime. The fragrance is balanced with ginger, which warms everything up and gives the composition a more sensual edge.


What’s The Story Behind This Scent?

It’s inspired by the ancient Chinese tradition that when there’s yin, there must be yang, which is what the spicy and freshness allude to.


You Will Love This If…

If you want a fragrance that’ll put a spring in your step, this is it. Ginger Essence has a bright, lively energy that’s contagious. Equally, if you love the smell of ginger, you’ll love this!


This Perfume Smells Similar To:

Ginger Essence is very unique! There’s no fragrance I could compare it to, but it does remind me a little bit of ginger ale.


Is Ginger Essence Unisex?

Yes, men and women will both enjoy this fragrance.


What’s The Longevity Like?

This fragrance lasts a little less than the typical Eau de Toilette – I reached for a top-up spritz at around four hours.


What’s Special About The Bottle?

Ginger Essence’s bottle reminds me of the 2000s. The glass bottle has a frosted look and gold accents. For a unisex fragrance, I’d say it has a traditionally feminine bottle.
