Testing Ingenious Ginger and Sunset Hour

Ingenious Ginger by Goldfield & Banks AustraliaGoldfield & Banks AustraliaIngenious Ginger4.3115 ratings

Ingenious Ginger is really good. I get the hype. Has a bright, fizzy citrus and spicy ginger opening. I also get some watery fruit, a bit like apple juice, as well as a mildly sweet, warm and cozy scent. It's probably the vanilla and musks but it smells like a bowl of freshly steamed white rice. Very smooth and well blended and not in your face, but it doesn't need to be. It's really lovely and weirdly addictive! I'm going to need a larger decant or full bottle for either me or the husband as this is something I want to have in my life. 10/10

I had higher hopes for Sunset Hour as I love tropical perfumes. On me, it just smells like soapy, sickly sweet tropical fruit punch. It's not *terrible* but definitely not FBW for me. 6/10

    I’ve been on the fence about picking up a sample of Ingenious Ginger, but now I have to!

      I kept hearing about it so I was curious. I'm glad I tried it. It's a really smooth, cozy and easy to wear rendition of the citrus and ginger DNA. Totally unisex too, I think!
