Hawaiian Ginger

Watery GINGER-FLOWER & CANTALOUPE. Opens with a burst of melon with soft citrus nuances and dries down to a powdery, aquatic, fruity musk. Overall I get a gorgeous ginger-flower & cantaloupe-melon scent that doesn't turn on the skin as many melon scents do. The aquatic tones are not too much and I don't get a pool chemical vibe that sometimes happens with aquatic scents Beautifully blended, and above average performance for a body spray. Contrast to Good Energy Cosmopolitan: These are different, but there is a similar orange-y vibe. Good Energy has a more forward creaminess and gourmand quality. Good Energy outperforms. Contrast to Heiress Paris Hilton: These are different, but they have been compared and I can see why, although HG lacks the bubbly champagne quality in Heiress. But underneath there is a similar musky fruit vibe. Heiress outperforms. Contrast to Un Jardin Apres La Mousson Hermes: These are different but there is a similar vibe with soft ginger-flower (represented in Hawaiian ginger by ginger & orange blossom). UJALM outperforms although Hawaiian ginger has above average performance for a body spray. Overall: above average performance for a body spray, and a gorgeous representation of cantaloupe melon that stays true, this is the perfect scent to wear in summer heat. It's a love for for me. Enjoy!

I had this in middle/high school. I kept this in my gym locker and would always use it before/after gym class. I remember this used to be so potent, the entire locker room would smell like it. That wasn't an issue tho bc everyone loved it. In fact, a bunch of girls ended up getting it bc of that. I loved this and kept a bottle for years, until my mom threw/gave away my entire collection of 60+ fragrances when my parents sold their house (Yeah I know... Gut-wrenching. Blasphemy. The utter disrespect... I'm still mad about it). I haven't gotten around to replacing this, as I've opted for more "grown up" perfumes, but this still holds a very special place in my heart. In fact, all the Calgons do. They were the scents of my childhood and adolescence, and they will always remind me of those days.

I love this scent I wish it was stronger and would linger longer on my skin. Its a sweet clean scent that whisk's me away to a tropical island even on a rainy day! Its not to strong; I could spray half the bottle on my neck and not get overwhelmed. Even at first spritz there is not a strong crystallized ginger scent. Which is surprising because all the crystallized ginger candy that I have had are really strong. During the dry down the melon scent really come through. Till today i didnt know that melon was one of the notes. I sprayed the perfume and the body spray on today at 12:30pm ish and its 6:25pm now and I can still smell it lightly and mainly on my clothes. This scent is almost exactly like glade's Hawaiian ginger breeze. Which i also love!!!

Excellent for soothing and relaxing. I use to spray this in my son's hospital room so it wouldn't smell like a hospital and every person that would walk in would take note of how it created a little haven from the sterile smell of a hospital. It brings back bitter sweet memories. It is sweet and clean but not in a soapy way more like the smell of a fresh rain in a pineapple field. Love it!!

It is a very pretty scent. It is light, doesn't last long, but it is very nice. I always get compliments on it, from men and women. I usually wear it around the house, or when I am out and want to smell nice, but do not want to smell strong or grab attention. Seems it grabs attention anyway. And it is just a cheap little body spray!
