Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ginger Biscuit Cologne
Ginger Biscuit is Jo Malone's take on a festive classic, delivering photorealistic gourmand comfort. While its ephemeral nature might leave some wanting more, especially for the price, the sheer deliciousness and cosy vibe make it a holiday hit for many.
Statement
Our Verdict - Ginger Babe Eau de Parfum
A divisive take on the candied ginger trend, Ginger Babe delivers a punchy spicy opening that settles into a comforting gourmand. It's not for everyone, with some finding the initial blast too sharp or reminiscent of shaving cream, but many adore its cosy, festive warmth.

Its intimate sillage and delicious gourmand profile make it perfect for casual wear and close encounters like dates. The lack of projection and strong festive accords mean it's less suited for formal events or the office, where subtlety and a more versatile scent might be preferred. It's too sweet for sport.
