The review

On paper, Ravine Ginger is a strong bet if you want Ingenious Ginger for less.

French Avenue sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Ingenious Ginger's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $36 per 100ml it costs 82% less than Ingenious Ginger — the cheapest of 4 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Value9.1
Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength French Avenue publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on ginger and lemon, turns to cardamom and jasmine, and settles into cedar, musk and amber. That is the brief Ravine Ginger is working from.

Top

  • ginger
  • lemon

Heart

  • cardamom
  • jasmine

Base

  • cedar
  • musk
  • amber
Fiery ginger and citrus over light woods, energetic and clean.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 4 twins of Goldfield & Banks Ingenious Ginger we can price, Ravine Ginger is number 2 on price per 100ml.

  1. 01 French Avenue Ravine Ginger Eau De Perfum $36/100ml
  2. 02 French Avenue Ravine Ginger $36/100ml
  3. 03 HK Perfumes Groovy $89/100ml
  4. 04 Scentual Obsessions Ginger Obsession $140/100ml
