Perfume yourself in the decadence of nature with Origins Ginger Essence. The perfume feels light on the skin the fragrance is soft and airy with just a tickle of amazonian delight. It offers a refreshing uninhibited bouquet, and carries on a theme of natural products that LA2DAY has been covering in recent weeks.

Origins has it's philosophies deeply imbedded in the concept of nature. The flavors and fragrances of Ginger, fig and the popular motifs of Spring. Common notes amongst their line include Ginger, citrus flavors of lemon and orange.

The store is reminiscent of Aveda, that is to say there does appear to be a concerted effort to ease the mind and sooth the stress of your every day. The wood themes offer light reprieve from the tonnage of stores that litter their glass shelves with bright over bearing colors and options. Similar to Fresh, Origins has a more sparse aesthetic appear that is more relaxing then the daunting offerings.

The Ginger Essence comes in a 50ml. bottle. It is elegantly designed, the vivacious shapes sits well in hand and the shape is reminiscent of full bodied woman. I have the distinct impression that was the idea. The cap is solid and snaps firmly closed. Price wise, The Ginger Essence retails for $41, while the trendy Intensive Fragrance Rollerball retails for $16.50

Further details are available from the Origins site. The company boasts a full range of moisturizers, body washes, holistic and pedagogical treatments such as teas, candles and sensory therapies that clarify your mood and relax the senses.

Give your body a break, get back to basics, think Origins.
