HerbGirl Report post Posted December 24, 2014 Gingerbread with red musk, patchouli, ylang ylang and myrrh. Imagine a patchouli-lite Lust where the ylang ylang is candied and the red musk is sugared. Add a shot of gingerbread and that is what the dry down smells like to me. In the bottle i smelled fresh Lust and a hint of gingerbread but once on, i had to keep sniffing (puzzled) because it doesn't smell like Lust to me...it smells gorgeous - perfumey gingerbread - but it doesn't smell like my beloved Lust. Huh. I cannot wait to see what some age does here, this should be some ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zankoku_zen Report post Posted January 15, 2015 Musky gingerbread with a touch of myrrh. I think there's a teensy bit of patchouli. Actually the musk, myrrh and patch emphasize the vanilla aspect of the gingerbread. After about an hour, I get a touch of the ylang ylang. This one is a fairly sexy Gingerbread. It's like realizing that the girl wearing that goofy Santa Claus outfit at a party is seriously smoking hot. Or two Gingerbread cookies getting it on. You get the picture. Good throw, and good wearlength. Musky, sexy, gingerbread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dottie_doom Report post Posted January 26, 2015 I have to admit that I have not yet tried the GC Lust but man oh man am I in love with Gingerbread Lust! I was hesitant at first because Patchouli and I have somewhat of a fickle relationship (sometimes my skin really does not like it). In Gingerbread Lust the patchouli is not overpowering and blends nicely with the other notes. Ordered a decant and ended up getting a bottle because I loved it so much. I agree with the above review, it's musky, sexy gingerbread! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cherrycherry Report post Posted January 29, 2015 I bet Nigella Lawson smells like this when she's baking gingerbread. Sex in a bottle, baby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
agirlnamedfury Report post Posted February 20, 2015 I haven't tried Lust itself, but this Gingerbread Lust is definitely yummy. I've tried almost all of the Yule gingerbread scents now and this is definitely one of the better ones, I think my second favorite next to Gingerbread Sin which was insta-love. This actually isn't as much of a "sexy" scent as I thought it would be, it's more just warm and comforting. The spice is very mellow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
milo Report post Posted July 19, 2015 I love Lust, and I keeo meaning to buy a full bottle. This is the gingerbread spices at first. Dries to a cinnamon heavy gingerbread. Theres a bitbof musk and slight floral. I must have issues with cinnamon though, as my eyes and hands are burning. This ones just a bit too spicy.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Bird Report post Posted August 4, 2016 Cinnamony gingerbread with an undertone of Lust's perfumey ylang ylang muskiness, like someone dropped a spice cookie into a sharp perfume. I don't really get the red musk, patch or myrrh, but the cinnamon is overpowering in most of the Gingerbread scents on my skin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
