Our take

What does Mojave Ghost smell like?

Released in 2014 and composed by Jérôme Epinette, Mojave Ghost draws on the ghost flower that grows in the Mojave Desert, a symbol of resilience. Far from arid, the fragrance is soft and airy. The opening pairs fruity sapodilla, musky ambrette and nesberry for a tender, slightly sweet start. The heart blends violet, creamy magnolia and sandalwood in a powdery, silky softness. Chantilly musk, cedar and ambergris in the base leave a clean, woody, almost transparent trace. Mojave Ghost is a skin scent, subtle and close-wearing, revealing its finesse up close.

When to wear it

Ideal for everyday wear, at the office or during the day. It suits those who love discreet, elegant, genderless scents.

VerdictA delicate, refined floral musk, though its discretion will frustrate anyone wanting sillage.

It belongs to the Floral, Woody family. Mojave Ghost is one of 6 creations by Byredo in our encyclopedia.
