Good but overpriced for what it is

About five years ago, Luckyscent sent me samples of pretty much all 302 (just kidding, sort of) Mizensir fragrances for me to write the product descriptions. This was, as you might imagine, amazing for my wallet, as I got paid per description, but for my nose? Not so much. One more mediocre than the next, and though none of them were actively unpleasant (bar one or two) or even badly made, the overwhelming impression was of a Big Company (Firmenich in Alberto Morillas' case) perfumer who was lazily recycling ideas off the shelf where all the second rate, unaccepted briefs go to languish. I mean, he released 302 perfumes all at once. This is no Roudnitska, Daltroff, or Cellier. Big brand luxury 'masstige' is what he be selling here, which is all well and fine as long as you are aware of what you're buying into.

Eau de Gingembre is the sole standout for me - a fresh, gingery take on Eau Sauvage or even CK One (which Morillas also did). It is simple, well-built, pleasantly dry, and bracing, which is exactly what you want in a cologne. But is it worth the retail price of over 200 euros? No, not when you can get a comparably high quality, durable citrus cologne from Perris Monte Carlo (e.g., Bergamotto di Calabria, Cedro di Diamante, etc.) for 100 euros or so.

Saunaurlaub

Für mich riecht Eau de Gingembre wie ein Besuch in der Sauna. Im Opening überwiegt eine Note: Ingwer. Kein Wunder und bis dahin auch keine Überraschung. Nach einer gewissen Zeit mischt sich allerdings eine leicht holzige Note mit in den Duft und dort beginnt dann auch meine Assoziation mit Saunageruch.
Im Sommer ein absoluter Frischekick und an milderen Tagen ein super gute Laune Duft.

Second of two

An offensively chemically sprayed citrus-orange note with noticeable ginger ambitions zips around my nose, although it is more fruity than sharp. I spontaneously think (without being able to verify this now) of the respective openings of Dunhill's 'Icon' or '27 Février 1950' by Pozzo di Borgo. Both are quite decent fresheners at the front - however, gingerless. In any case, it is a respectable cologne-like freshness.

Some green aspects (probably) of Petitgrain struggle here, coming off slightly musty. And the notes of fig leaf and cypress initially irritate me more than they help. About two hours pass before I can at least check off the fig with some goodwill. Ultimately, however, it is a green remnant of some creamy base mood, which noticeably lacks the lab crutch. The remaining test-tube-like fresh (Hedion?)-veil does not quite suffice as support, although it knows how to convince in its own way. Compared to the one achieved so excellently in 'Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic' by Guerlain, it clearly has to settle for second place.

Anyway, I have been practically staring towards "bright woods," in the original "White wood," since the beginning. I was a bit apprehensive about them, but I am pleasantly surprised from late morning onward. It is almost spicy. As if the previously missing cypress decided not to interfere at the front but rather to help out at the back in defense. In any case, the wood does not come off as hardware store-like. The remaining freshness also contributes to this. It has developed a zesty twist and stubbornly holds on - albeit artificially - well into the afternoon.

The big plus is indeed this stability as it goes on. Even after eight hours, the wood is woody and not particle-board-like or stagnant. If a hint of aquatic is to be noted, it is subtle.

Conclusion: An inconspicuous, enduring fresh scent for warmer days. Asking 190 euros for 100ml is, of course, quite sporty.

I thank Kovex for the sample.

Ice Age for Everyday Life

Especially on days like today, we all look for that ONE fragrance that lightly accompanies us, cools us down, and simply helps us get through the day! And that’s exactly what Eau de Gingembre is.

It is citrusy-bitter, green, and woody-fresh, has a quite linear scent progression, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do: cool down! Here, one can clearly feel the experience and signature of master Alberto Morillas.

Just the opening is uncompromisingly invigorating and refreshes with bergamot, neroli, petitgrain, and especially ginger, so that you can really feel the coolness on your skin. The composition feels juicy, natural, cooling, and revitalizing.

The scent is particularly suitable in the height of summer for minimalists who want to smell the simplicity of nature in a perfume.

Decide for yourselves.

The Double Ray of Sunshine or The Art of Lightness and Simplicity

You spend quite some time here on Parfumo, researching, researching, and researching - and then, wait a moment, what is this, the bottle looks nice...aha...do I have or do I not have the brand. Wait, I love such scents or I have such a scent - what can I say: It is a wonderful pastime. I will soon celebrate my first anniversary here. What did I actually do before my time on Parfumo? Reading books, going to the cinema, meeting friends - I don't need any of that anymore. No, just a little joke, I still do all of that and very much enjoy it. But this year on Parfumo has been a happy one.

In this way, while passing the time, I came across this fragrance from Mizensir. How exactly, I can't even remember anymore.

Now I have a bottle of Eau de Gingembre in my possession. I find the bottle beautiful, very elegant, minimalist, and high-quality. Everything is just right here:
the cap, the spray head, the glass, and also the attached metal plate, which I think is indeed metal.

About the scent:
Ginger, neroli, and bergamot in the opening are rich, rich, rich. It is a refreshment that immediately brightens your mood when you spray this juicy, cologne-like scent that comes across almost like a fougère. And the fragrance immediately creates a remarkable sillage that is incredibly bright, fresh, and clean. In ticker terms, one would say: It packs a punch! After a few minutes, the cypress indeed comes through, which can be compared to fresh needles. In the drydown, a gentle symphony of woods joins in, perfectly balanced, bright, with the fresh-citrusy notes always accompanying, never overpowering.

The scent definitely bears similarities to "Dior Homme Cologne (2013) | Dior," which I love to spray on in the height of summer as a refreshing cold shower, as it not only smells wonderful but also lowers the perceived temperature by 7 degrees. However, the Dior does without woods, which is why the Mizensir earns an olfactory certification for the workday.

I can imagine that many people would smell this fragrance and say it smells good but is nothing special or even boring. However, I believe that there is a certain artistry in the lightness and simplicity. One must first manage to create a scent that is so light in the air, but also with endurance and beauty.
Eau de Gingembre radiates from my neck into the room and shines at me and everyone around me. A ray of sunshine in the double sense indeed.
