Nutmeg in fragrances always catches my attention. While not always welcome in food, I love the spice even more in perfumes. It often radiates a pleasant, even erotic skin scent.
In Nutmeg & Ginger, however, ginger comes first, only slightly spicy, but quite sweet. More like sweetened ginger tea. I also smell lemon, not sour, but beautifully lemony with powdered sugar.
The nutmeg is subtle here, but in the most beautiful connection with the other notes.
What blows me away and comes completely unexpectedly is a wonderful creaminess. I once had a cream that smelled like this, but unfortunately, I can't recall the name and brand.
This scent is so different from what I expected. While ginger-heavy, it has such a creamy, delicately spicy aura that I am completely enchanted.
Here, a harmony like no other has emerged from fresh and citrusy notes combined with sweet and powdery nuances, which is simply fantastic.
Postscript: When I applied Nivea cream to my hands in the evening and then sniffed the scent again, I became aware of the great similarity.
It could therefore be the perfect Nivea scent.
