I love it. The magnolia is noticeable immediately and, together with this exquisite chicozapote, they create something very feminine and elegant with a touch of classic seduction, thanks to the faint woods. The longevity isn’t what I’d want from a Byredo, but I’d buy it again. 8/10.
It didn’t seem anything special to me. My favourite Byredo is Bal d’Afrique and it’s worth every penny. With Mojave Ghost I was disappointed: it smells good, it’s a light magnolia with chicozapote (a Mexican fruit similar to a plum) and finishes with woody cedar. But it lasts a bit too short, like an hour on skin. They sell it as exotic and mysterious, but I don’t see anything special in it; it’s a light floral that doesn’t speak to me. For me, it’s not worth paying 120 euros.
Well, it wasn’t anything special. My favourite Byredo is Bal d’Afrique, and I think it’s worth every penny. With this Mojave Ghost, I’m a bit disappointed: it smells nice, a light magnolia with chicozapote, that Mexican fruit similar to a plum, finishing with woody cedar. The longevity is pretty poor, lasting at most an hour on skin. They sell it as something exotic inspired by the desert’s ghost flower, but I don’t see anything special in it; it’s just a light floral that doesn’t speak to me. In short, for me, it’s not worth paying 120 euros.
This is like a Petit et Mamans by Bulgari but fruitier and more acidic. It’s very versatile, though not for evening wear. It conveys the image of a serene woman, even a bit innocent and carefree, with no pretensions other than smelling good to herself. I don’t see it as unisex at all, which doesn’t mean a man can’t wear it, as tastes differ. I prefer Gipsy Water from the same house, although I consider that, like that one, this is also overpriced.
It’s like Bulgari’s Petit et Mamans but fruitier and sharper. It’s versatile, though not for evening. It conveys a serene, almost innocent woman, relaxed and with no pretensions other than smelling good for herself. I don’t see it as unisex, though tastes are colours. I prefer the Gipsy Water from the same house, although I consider that, like that one, this is overpriced.
Smells great without being overpowering, but that powdery floral note (I suppose magnolia, a flower I’ve never heard of) doesn’t speak to me. The trail is a personal bubble that lasts for eternity on clothes, more than six or seven hours. Unisex? Forget it; it breaks the unisex fragrance rule; this is very feminine to all intents and purposes.
Mojave Ghost is a fitting name for something that should be exotic and mysterious, but at heart it’s the ghost of an olfactory experience. On my skin, after 7 sprays, it opens with a subtle quince (the chicozapote is from the same family) and creamy magnolias, and that’s where it stays for its whole duration, decent (about 6 hours), although it projects nothing. The woods, musk and violets don’t even appear, although the ambroxan perhaps gives it weight. I’ve tested it in different seasons; it works best in spring and autumn (it holds up in summer). It’s feminine, daytime, informal: linear, pretty and pleasant. I’d never heard of a quince perfume, it has its original point, but it doesn’t excite me and I don’t think it’s worth the cost. Edited 16/6/22: In full summer at 30 degrees with 11 sprays, after 4 hours a powdery, musky sandalwood floats out, very pretty. However, it still projects very little. Pleasant: 7/10, Interesting: 6/10, Versatile: 6/10, Original: 8/10.
Mojave Ghost is a very fitting name for a perfume that should be exotic and mysterious, but at the bottom it’s just the ghost of an olfactory experience. On my skin, after 7 sprays, MG opens with a subtle aroma of quince (I discovered that chicozapote is from the same plant family) and creamy magnolias, and that’s where it stays throughout its duration which, despite projecting nothing at all, is quite decent (about 6 hours). The woods, musk, and violets, don’t even show up, although perhaps the ambroxan is what gives weight and creaminess to the perfume. I’ve tested the perfume in different seasons, and I think it performs better in spring and autumn (although it holds up well in summer too). It’s a perfume leaning towards the feminine, for daytime, and quite informal: a linear fragrance, very pretty and pleasant that, for being a floral-fruity, has its original point: I’ve never smelled a quince perfume until today. However, it doesn’t manage to excite me, and I don’t think it’s worth even a fraction of the cost. Edited 16/6/22: Well, in full summer, at 30 degrees and with 11 sprays, I did manage to feel the dry down. After about 4 hours of applying it, the floral-fruity aspect recedes and a very nice powdery and musky sandalwood floats to the surface, which complements the previous phase very well. However, I still think it’s ridiculous how little this perfume projects. Pleasant: 7/10 Interesting: 6/10 Versatile: 6/10 Original: 8/10
‘Mojave Ghost’ opens with a fruity accord, something that reminds me of pear, which I imagine is the chicozapote. It continues with magnolia and a very nice, light violet. The dry down is musky and woody, incorporating a fresh and dry sandalwood and a clean musk into my skin, although the note that keeps standing out on my skin is the violet. I understand why it’s compared to Chanel EAU Tendre and Daisy but those are more fruity, they feel more like a shampoo.. whereas Mojave Ghost is more powdery and grown-up. It’s soft, light, charming, talcum-powdery, slightly soapy, sweet but fresh, simple and pleasant. More feminine. Ideal for spring/summer. The sillage is soft and the longevity is scarce, about 3 hours on my skin. I love it but I don’t feel it’s a special enough aroma for the price it has, plus as I said the longevity isn’t good, so I wouldn’t buy it.

Pfffff, I have a decant that was given to me, speaking based on that. Does it smell good? Yes. Would I buy it? No. Is it worth it? For me, it’s a resounding no. It’s a fruity and floral fragrance, I detect a lot of fruit in it, I imagine it’s chicozapote, even though it’s a fruit I’ve never smelled. It’s pleasant, correct, smells good but honestly, does anyone consider this perfume worth the price? I think we’re going crazy with brands like Byredo, it doesn’t have good sillage or longevity, you’ll finish the bottle in two months just by reapplying. I think this brand is pure marketing and aesthetics, lots of hype on social media and YouTube because this minimalist aesthetic is trendy, but it’s over. If I buy a perfume I want it to have sillage and longevity matching the price I’m paying, it hurts to be so critical but prices keep rising and quality is lower, they discontinue excellent perfumes from the 90s and 2000s and bring us this which is water with a touch of x, I won’t spend €150 on something like this, it has the quality of Zara x Jo Malone
Pfffff, I have a gifted decant. Does it smell good? Yes. Would I buy it? No. Is it worth it? For me, a resounding no. It’s fruity and floral, but I notice a fruit a lot, I imagine the chicozapote, although I’ve never heard of that fruit.

It doesn’t have a good trail or longevity; you’ll finish the bottle in two months reapplying.

I’ve finally figured out what it smells like, to Plescent, the insect repellent from Farmacias Guadalajara. I suppose if you’re not from Mexico and don’t know this repellent, this perfume might seem good to you. I pass.
It doesn’t smell like Chance Eau Tendre, I don’t understand the comparison. This perfume smells very experimental and has an insecticide note that bothers me a lot. It smells like OFF and wet earth with leaves, I don’t know… Like something that isn’t sexy. It has great sillage and I’m not enjoying it. I don’t like the OFF smell!!
It’s soft, talcum-powdery, fresh… ethereal. It’s not for attracting attention but it will make you feel good. They’re not the same but it reminds me of: Dior Grey New, Acqua Fresca, or Boticario Omnia Amethyste

From a tester set of 2ml. The Mojave Ghost fragrance is soft, subtle, not intrusive, adheres like a second skin, it’s clean and that’s the trend. Many reviews label it as poor because it’s not strong or long-lasting, without understanding that’s the trend for summer in hot countries: to stay fresh and even sleep without an annoying scent. Sometimes it’s a bit sweet-floral, but like all Byredo EDPs, it tells a story and transports you somewhere. It suddenly comes to your nose as if it wants to say something. It manages to convey that you’re in the Mojave Desert and speaks to you.🏜🗣🌿🌸

I’ve only heard of it once, but it’s incredibly fresh and perfect for spring and summer. As soon as I can get my hands on it, I’ll buy it. The only downside, after some time, is the terrible longevity considering the low price. Still, it’s amazing and to me it smells like a summer downpour in a garden
Mojave Ghost, and for the streets today I’m out again… 🎶🎶🎤
This smells like talcum powder with mosquito repellent…
Smells like talcum powder mixed with insect repellent…
That’s what a luxury hotel smells like.
The perfume is pretty… although the truth is, nothing exotic or as different as I expected. A versatile creation for daily wear, a bit juicy fruity, a bit powdery floral and something woody-musky. Typical second-skin aroma, like a luxurious cream or cosmetic. However, the scent is quite simple and tells me nothing new, which, combined with unacceptable performance on my skin (lasting about four hours with poor projection), means I’ll never consider buying it. I don’t understand the hype, to be honest. For me, a total disappointment.
Smells clean, but the trail is very scarce. Not worth it for such a high price; there are better alternatives.
I adore this perfume since I tried it because it’s unique. Months ago I went to Egypt and stayed at a five-star hotel. I remember how well it smelled and it stuck with me. Smelling Mojave Ghost immediately brought back the luxury hotel. It’s luxury, freshness, elegance, cleanliness and exclusivity. I can’t identify the notes but the overall effect is perfect. No other perfume is like this.
Mojave. Oh, Mojave. Incredible branding, a gorgeous name and concept: a ghost, a transparent impression in the desert as the sun sets. Well, that’s what I thought, but it’s another fragrance best compared to the basic white shirt that never fails. That oversized, elegant shirt that makes you look like a gallery owner in New York. In short: I look good, but it doesn’t say anything. It’s impeccably clean, discreet, a dusty brushstroke of light. I like it, though it doesn’t excite me, and the price puts me off. Its personality feels narrow given the wealth of characterful beasts in niche perfumery. A very achieved skin-scent effect that, with such an imposing name, could have offered more magic. Pretty, but not worth the price.
Another fragrance with little to say, sporting that crisp white shirt vibe that suits Byredo so well. It’s pretty, yes, but I expected more from such a powerful concept and name. I was hoping for something that would move me, take me to unknown places—not just by name but by price. It’s a clean scent with a fruity opening and a floral, powdery, musky development. Someone told me it smells like high-end Dove soap, if such a thing exists, and I think they were right. Decent longevity for something so light, almost six hours. It lacks a trail; it’s very skin-scented, though it has those glorious moments when it hits with an unexpected movement or breeze. I enjoyed the sample, but it’s not enough to buy a bottle or a decant.
Subtle fragrance bought blind and I liked it. Given the longevity issues, I applied the moisturiser which provides incredible comfort. The combination of both is a good experience. It lasted about three hours with plenty of sprays, then I couldn’t smell it anymore. I’ll see if my surroundings can detect it. Subtle, fresh and pleasant aroma. It’s not the madness one would expect for the price, but it certainly smells good.
I went to Sephora in Montreal yesterday looking for Black Friday deals and, by chance, came across a Byredo display. The assistant let me try several, including Mojave Ghost. It reminded me of Marc Jacobs Daisy: super delicate, subtle, floral and elegant. I had it in mind because I gifted it to my mother. Look, there’s not much to say here; it’s a 100% feminine perfume, nothing unisex.
I absolutely love it; I’d wear it every day. It’s a super special fragrance that has nothing in common with any other.
Clean, simple and pure, with a molecular touch. The longevity and projection aren’t spectacular, but it’s made to be enjoyed close to the skin, within your own bubble. A beauty.
