The smell of the barely ripe lemons is intoxicating and lively and mixes with the purity of the air. Eau de Thé & Gingembre transcribes this sensation of freshness. It is a cologne with sparkling citrus fruits enhanced with a floral heart and a spicy note of ginger. Its bright scent is ideal for me for hot summer days."
