I love the sweet spiciness and used to wear this all the time, but once Origins introduced a perfume version of GloomAway (yummy grapefruit!), I've been hooked on that.

This is a fabulous scent! I was skeptical at first but now I can't get enough of it. Not really sweet and not really a kitchen smell, but oh so, delicious! Love it!
Fresh, gingerale/lemonade scent. Not as ginger-y as I hoped it might be, on the other hand, I'm a sucker for citrus scents, so I love it anyway. I would wear this to work in the summer. It's uplifting, light and fizzy. UPDATE: I bought a bottle of this and I love it more and more as I wear it.... I'm really diggin' this!!! So summery and refreshing. I'll be wearing it a lot!!!!
Another one of my favorite scents, I love the smell of ginger. It's especially nice to wear in the summer, it's very refreshing on a hot day. I don't find this scent over powering at all and it lasts all day on me.
I really wanted to love this but *sigh* I don't. I thought that it would smell like the body lotion (with lots of citrusy undertones) but it only does for about 5 minutes, then it changes on me. After a while it started to smell a bit like gingery sunscreen if that makes any sense. Lasting power is pretty poor, so I won't be repurchasing. Sadly, afte I purchased this of course, I found that The Thymes Ginger Milk cologne smells like the Origins lotion, so I'll be buying that one as soon as this is used up!

Like the scent but I have the regular version and like the others have said the scent DOES NOT last !!!! After an hour or so this doesnt even smell on me. If I ever buy this again I will get the intensified version for sure....
This is my everyday fragrance. I love it - not overpowering, but very pretty. I only use the Intensified version, as the regular one doesn't last very long at all. This is my HG fragrance...not cheap, but not so expensive that i would hesitate to wear it when i am just hanging around the house :)
This reminds me a bit of Demeter's Gingerale. It's pretty, soft, and sparkly! I love the idea of the ginger jar shape, too -- too cute! I got it on eBay, so it didn't cost too much. I would buy again.
i've only tested in-store, but me and my friend instantly fell for this refreshing fragrance. it's not so gingery, it's got some citrus-fruity note that embraces the spicy kick of ginger. this is one of those kinds that i could wear this almost for any occation. it won't take over one's personality like some perfumes do. very subtle but firm. i want to get this for this coming spring!
Hmmmmm, I still haven't made up my mind about this. I adore ginger so thought that this would be perfect for me and, to be fair, it smelled wonderful when I gave it a pre-purchase spray. But, I quickly realised that it reminded me of something that I couldn't quite put my finger on. Then it hit me: cola. On me, this smells like pure cola. This is now all I can think about when I wear it. So, even though it is still quite pleasant (although, as mentioned by others, not longlasting), I just don't think I can come to terms with smelling like a soft drink. Pity. (This review refers to the "Intensified" version)
