Mojave Ghost
Mojave Ghost by Byredo is an unisex eau de parfum from 2014 in the luxury price tier. It opens with ambrette seed and naseberry, moves into magnolia, sandalwood and violet and dries down to cedarwood, musk and vetiver. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
- Naseberry A tropical fruit that tastes like brown sugar and pear. Soft, malty and mellow.
Heart
- Magnolia Lemony white floral. Bright and clean rather than heavy.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
