Gin & Tonic

To say that this is a light scent would be an understatement. It's very pleasant, no question about that. It's fresh, aquatic, the Gin note is present (just a tiny bit), and you can detect a twist of lime in there. The scent is neither feminine or masculine. Anyone could wear this in my opinion. It really is a great sent, but like others have stated, there is absolutely no staying power on this at all. It also sits fairly close to the skin. This is not one that will radiate outward very far from your body. It would be good for layering with similarly scented products, or if you just want a burst of a fresh scent as a pick-me-up. I picked this up at Marshall's for $6.99, and it's definitely worth it given the limited staying power.

Gin&Tonic smells like the real thing when smelling from the bottle or paper (Gin&Tonic with lime wedge). However, on me, it has the Gin&Tonic smell as background, with a dash of floral hint, like those from a typical ivory soap, and I find Gin&Tonic quite nice to wear if you want something has the cleaness of Pure Soap also by Demeter, but with a little bit fresh and refreshing twist.

Gin & tonic is my THANG!! This very much does smell like high quality gin (no Tanqueray is not high quality) with a nice fresh tonic such as Fever Tree with a tiny hint of lime. Many Demeter fragrances disappear quickly but this one actually last for a bit. I think this is a very precise replication of what a good gin & tonic tastes like. Light, fresh, clean and wearable.

it suits for women and men. And a nice scent for day wear which is fresh and wake you up. But after you wear it for a day the lime note become weird that smells like glue and sweeter. I prefer this in summer afternoon with this cool and refreshing scent. But you need to re-apply to make sure no it still smelling fresh lime.

Fresh lime with a prominent bitter gin note, perfect for hot summer days and makes a refreshing change from the countless sweet fruity perfumes out there. I can almost imagine drinking this. Downsides are it doesn't last long at all, and leaves an oily residue on my skin long after the scent has faded.

Gin & tonic is one of my favorite cocktails, and this one doesn't smell like gin & tonic at all. Having said that I still like its smell, it's fresh, soapy, clean, bubbly and up-lifting. Too bad, just like other Demeter fragrances, the silage & longevity are really poor.

It doesn't smell anything like gin, well not the type I drink anyway. I totally get the watery lime notes, they are definitely there, but not really the gin. It's nice and fresh, very much a cologne smell. Lasts about 3-4 hours, definitely no longer. Pretty good.

Juniper, chalk and a touch of lime. I enjoyed this one when I had it, but it wasn't quite as effervescent as Gingerale. It doesn't have the bitterness of quinine or the acidity of citrus, and the pine is soft, but it feels like a cool cotton sheet on a hot day.

The perfect light summer fragrance. The initial scent is punchy tonic and juniper, with a lovely zesty tonic note in the dry down. Sillage is low to moderate (depending on how liberal you are with spraying!) and longevity on me was 3-4 hours.

I really like this. I mostly get the watery notes and lime with a sharpness from the gin. However it has NO staying power (maybe 10 minutes). I would like a real perfume brand to make this.

As others have pointed out this has poor performance and I usually layer it with another citrus type fragrance that also is weak and they work well together.

It's a light one, really smell like the drink just a hint of sweeter taste, little bit more female ish.

I love a good gin & tonic if I’m in the mood for a cocktail. This scent smells closer to a generic men’s cologne to me, though. The lime in the beginning smells amazing and fresh, but lasts for about two seconds. Not horrible, but could be better.

They gifted me a full size bottle of this with my purchase and I'm very thankful. Smells like a gin and tonic, but a cheap dive-bar one. Heavy gin notes. Gin and tonic is my favorite drink but not sure I want to smell like one.

bought this for my boyfriend and it’s just okay, the opening is too cytrusy but then it gets more soda like, def a nice cologne for a hot day, refreshing but not in a tacky way. but the lasting power is quite disappointing.

It's exactly what it says on the tin. I don't know what to make of it, very realistic.

Smells exactly like a Gin & Tonic when first sprayed and disappears immediately.

Bought this on a whim, as I love G&T's and was wondering if a fragrance could ever smell similar. The answer: yes, but for all of 30 seconds. This fragrance smells exactly like a G&T in the open, but that very quickly dissipates and what remains is a somewhat soapy scent which also disappears in around 5 minutes. Longevity: non existent. Sillage: you have to have the olfactory senses of a bloodhound to be able to smell this beyond your skin. Would be a nice buy for a lark, but not worth the price - I've picked up bottles of designer fragrances for the same price that are far better quality.

Soapy aquatic lime zest. There’s a dryness that could relate to dry gin, but nobody would know it’s “gin and tonic” without being told. Surprised there’s no juniper, since it’s the most recognizable flavor in gin. Not sweet. Thick and soapy sunscreen vibes. Mediocre, generic, shampoo. Doesn’t feel high end. Decent strength/duration.

I was hoping to get more juniper/gin notes out of this. Unfortunately it mostly smells like calone -- generic fresh "male" scent. Way too much of that to be unisex I think, and not enough like the gin and tonic name. Disappointed in this one; Demeter is usually very accurate with their notes.
