Smells like generic soap. No gingerbread scent at all. Does not lather either. Over priced and overrated.

I received this as a Christmas gift after coveting it for years. I really like it! I've only ever used it as a shower gel, but it lathers well, smells great, rinses clean and doesn't dry out my...

I loved using this scent around the holidays, it's warm & comforting. It reminds me of freshly baked gingerbread cookies straight from the oven, yum!

PROS: Delicious, comforting scent. Reminds me more of actual ginger than gingerbread. Not a masculine or feminine scent. Decent suds. CONS: Not very moisturizing (but not drying either.) ...

I don't understand the negative reviews. The Gingerbread Man works well as a shower gel, for me (I've never tried it as a bubble bath). I received this as a gift several years ago, and out it...

This 3-in-1 smelt just as bad as it did in the bottle than when I used it on my skin in the shower. I would NOT use this on my hair unless I wanted to dry it out. It did horribly for a bubble bath,...

This is exactly like ginger ale in scent. In no way does it smell like gingerbread. But I still like it. The scent is refreshing and the product works well. It doesn't dry out my skin, which is a...

I agree that it's a pricey item, but I really like the light/airy scent, and how soft it makes my skin feel. I've been using Philosophy bath/shower gels for about 18 months, and I think it's worth...

As other reviewers have commented this does not have a gingerbread scent. I find the fragrance similar to Origin's Ginger which I like very much. However, this 3-in-1 is very watery and not creamy...

UPDATE: I've used up about 1/2 the bottle now and I've changed my mind about the scent. Its still definitely ginger ale, but it has an after scent that is a mild, clean floral that I'm really...

I used it because it came with my Gingerbread Man suitcase set last holiday season, but I didn't love it. It has a decent spicy, sort of citrusy scent which was great for fall, but that's about as...

I like the refreshing ginger ale scent, but it ended up being too drying for my skin.

I like the scent (this and the scrub, but for some reason, the souffle seems different to me...horrible, actually). I've only used it as a shower gel, not as bubble bath, and I have to use a lot to...

Although I don't think the product smells much like gingerbread, I do enjoy the scent. I found it to be a mild ginger/citrus smell.
