The fragrance, which has returned for the Christmas season, is described as sweet and warm, making it 'perfect' for winter. The 10ml version normally costs £25, but new TopCashback members who also are new LookFantastic shoppers can receive a £15 sign-up bonus with any purchase of £15 or more at LookFantastic, bringing the price down to £6.45 including delivery.
Existing LookFantastic customers who join TopCashback will get a slightly lower cashback rate, making the fragrance £8.12 including delivery. These prices include the standard £3.95 delivery charge, and cashback can take up to seven days to appear in accounts.
Fragrance profile and value
The Ginger Biscuit Cologne opens with ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon, then reveals a heart of sweet caramel before settling into a base of roasted hazelnuts, tonka bean and vanilla. A 10ml bottle provides roughly 100 to 150 sprays, which with daily use of two or three sprays should last one to two months.
Shoppers can also consider alternatives such as Marks and Spencer's Ginger Flower Eau De Parfum 100ml at £22.50, which combines ginger with sweet citrus and orange blossom, or Lush's Ginger Perfume at £85 for 100ml, a retro floral with a spicy, earthy kick.
Shopper reviews
The 100ml bottle of Ginger Biscuit Cologne has a 4.2 out of five star rating based on 46 reviews on the Jo Malone website. One shopper said: "I adore this fragrance. Definitely my favourite. It's sweet and warm - perfect for winter." Another praised its layers, writing: "When I first spray it, close your eyes and let yourself be immersed in the moment."
A third reviewer called it a "delicious fragrance" but wished it were not limited edition, while a two-star review said it was "very very sweet and overpowering, much more vanilla than ginger and warm spices." A three-star review noted the scent does not last long on the skin, and a five-star review described it as "the most delicious, sweet, slightly spiced, caramelly fragrance."
To claim the offer, shoppers need to sign up as a new member at TopCashback for free, search for LookFantastic on the site, click through and buy the item normally, and then receive £15 cashback when spending £15 or more.
