Another great EO from Soapgoods. It is very strong, so a little goes a long way. It blends well with lemongrass in my hot process soap. Just sniffing the bottle helps relieve my allergies and gives a mood lift. If you want a sweet smell, you'll need to blend it with another EO.

I was expecting something close to the scent of ginger root with this oil, but as others have noted, it is very strong. Almost overpowering. It has a very warm, earthy scent...not sweet at all. And a tiny amount goes a LONG way!

I guess I am too used to industrial products with sweet, light ginger scents. This was the real thing and it took me off guard. I will have to mix it with other e.o.'s for a scent I like.

Agreed, very strong, but ginger usually is. Goes really nicely with hinoki. Has a nice full bodied, understated spice. I ordered a tiny size as I won't use this too often but making bath salts of it. Loved it.

Very strong aroma. Make sure to dilute well. I do love the scent of ginger, but this was very strong unless well diluted.

A nice scent, but as others mentioned, very strong! A little really goes a long way. Blends nicely with citrus scents.

Extremely potent....I can only use a tiny bit because it is so overpowering

Not my particular favorite smell, but some of my customers really like ginger.
