Re-released with new notes
The lush website now lists "A blend of zippy ginger, bergamot and Sicilian red mandarin oils...Then come softer floral notes of mimosa absolute and Kenyan geranium oil... Final touches of grounding oakmoss and soothing sandalwood"

Fresh ginger and citrus without being one dimensional thanks to the earthy sandalwood and oakmoss. I made my purchase in summer specifically looking for something to replace BBW's now discontinued White tea and Ginger in my collection and it 100% satisfies that spa-like/refreshing itch.

They only sell it in the largest bottles since it's now part of their black label collection

Ginger
Ginger is the classic from Lush and has not much to do with ginger.
The scent is a sea of flowers and quite heavy and soapy. The sillage is strong. Many find this fragrance too floral and feel overwhelmed by it.

It is a classic because it comes from a "good old time" when women were still women. When used sparingly, it also has a clean-soapy and fresh quality.

Here too, the Lush musk base is present, which gives the flowers a certain sweetness based on bitter juniper berry.

I preferred the namesake perfumed soap. The scent is too strongly concentrated for me, although it is basically great.

I fell in love with the shower gel, which weirdly helps with muscle pain. Now I enjoy the herbal aromatic spicy EDP. Comforting & unisex.

A little, but juicy, soft ginger at the start, then a herbal-floral, green soapiness emerges. Old school vibes.

A highly concentrated, warming ginger-spice-flower mix. The scent is something special, but opinions will definitely differ.

Just re-released in the Lush Kitchen. I ordered it again, a lovely, old-fashioned, full ladies' scent.

Ginger (mainly), juniper, and mimosa combined in a vintage, slightly soapy, moderately sweet, typically rich Lush scent.
