Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ingenious Ginger EDP
This one's a proper crowd-pleaser for sure, though a few don't get the hype. Expect a fizzy ginger ale opening that settles into a creamy vanilla dream. Brilliant for summer, versatile enough for year-round wear.

Our Verdict - Innovative Spice EDP
Innovative Spice chases Goldfield & Banks' Ingenious Ginger - a fizzy ginger-flower-and-citrus opening over a soft magnolia-jasmine heart and warm amber base. The dupe renders the resinous amber simpler and the longevity shorter, but the bright, unisex citrus-floral character is recognisable.
