I love it. The magnolia is noticeable immediately and, together with this exquisite sapote, they create something very feminine and elegant with a touch of classic seduction, thanks to the subtle woods. The longevity isn’t what I’d want from a Byredo, but I’d buy it again. 8/10.

It wasn’t anything special to me. My favorite Byredo is Bal d’Afrique and it’s worth every penny. I was disappointed with Mojave Ghost: it smells nice, it’s a light magnolia with chikuzaapote (a Mexican fruit similar to a plum) and finishes with woody cedar. But it lasts very little, about 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.
Honestly, it didn’t blow my mind. My favorite Byredo is still Bal d’Afrique, which I think is worth every penny. With Mojave Ghost, I’m a bit disappointed: it smells nice—a light magnolia mixed with chichapote, that Mexican fruit similar to a plum, finishing with woody cedar. The longevity is pretty weak, lasting maybe 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. Bottom line, for me, it’s not worth paying 120 euros for.
This is like a fruitier, more acidic version of Bulgari’s Petit et Mamans. It’s very versatile, though not for evening wear. It projects an image of a serene woman, almost 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, because it’s all about personal taste. I prefer Gipsy Water from the same house, though I consider both of them overpriced.

Smells great without being overwhelming, but that powdery floral note (I guess magnolia, a flower I’ve never heard of) doesn’t speak to me. The trail is a personal bubble that lasts for hours on clothes, more than six or seven. Unisex? Forget it; this fragrance breaks the unisex rule; it’s very feminine through and through.
Mojave Ghost is a very fitting name for a perfume that should be exotic and mysterious, but at its core, 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 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 the ambroxan might be what gives the perfume weight and creaminess. I’ve tried the perfume in different seasons, and I think it performs best in spring and autumn (though it holds up well in summer too). It’s a leaning-feminine, daytime, and quite informal fragrance: a linear scent, very pretty and pleasant that, for a fruity-floral, has its original point: I’ve never smelled a quince perfume until today. However, it doesn’t excite me, and I don’t think it’s worth even a fraction of the cost. Edited 16/6/22: Well, right in the middle of summer, at 30 degrees with 11 sprays, I did manage to feel the dry-down. After about 4 hours of applying it, the fruity-floral aspect recedes and a powdery, musky sandalwood floats to the surface, which complements the previous phase very well. However, I still think the lack of projection from this perfume is ridiculous. Pleasant: 7/10 Interesting: 6/10 Versatile: 6/10 Original: 8/10
Mojave Ghost is a fitting name for something that should be exotic and mysterious, but at its core, it’s the ghost of an olfactory experience. On my skin, after 7 sprays, it opens with a subtle grapefruit (sapote is from the same family) and creamy magnolias, and that’s where it stays for its decent longevity (around 6 hours), though it has zero projection. The woods, musk, and violets never show up, though the ambroxan might give it some weight. I’ve tried it in different seasons; it works best in spring and autumn (it holds up okay in summer). It’s feminine, daytime, and informal: linear, pretty, and pleasant. I’ve never smelled a grapefruit perfume before; it has an original point, but it doesn’t excite me, and I don’t think it’s worth the price. Edited 6/16/22: In full summer at 30 degrees with 11 sprays, after 4 hours, a beautiful talc-sandalwood and musky note emerges. However, it still projects very little. 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; a fresh, dry sandalwood and a clean musk incorporate into my skin, although the note that keeps standing out on my skin is the violet. I understand why people compare it to Chanel EAU Tendre and Daisy, but those are fruitier and feel more like shampoo… in contrast, Mojave Ghost is more powdery and mature. It’s soft, light, charming, 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, plus as I said, the longevity isn’t good, so I wouldn’t buy it.

Pfffff, I have a decant someone gifted me, speaking based on that. Does it smell good? Yes. Would I buy it? No. Is it worth it? For me, a resounding no. It’s a fruity-floral scent; I detect a lot of fruit, 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 losing our minds with brands like Byredo. It doesn’t have good sillage or longevity; you’ll go through the bottle in two months just reapplying. I think this brand is pure marketing and aesthetics; they’ve gotten a lot of hype on social media and YouTube for this minimalist aesthetic being trendy, but it’s over. If I buy a perfume, I want sillage and longevity that match the price I’m paying. It hurts to be so critical, but prices keep rising while quality drops. They’re discontinuing excellent perfumes from the 90s and 2000s and bringing us this, which is just water with a touch of X. I won’t spend €150 on this; it has the quality of Zara x Jo Malone.

I’ve finally figured out what it smells like: Plescent, the bug repellent from Farmacias Guadalajara. I suppose if you’re not from Mexico and don’t know this repellent, this perfume might seem nice to you. I’m out.
It doesn’t smell like Chance Eau Tendre; I don’t get that comparison. This perfume smells very experimental and has a bug-spray note that really bothers me. It smells like OFF and wet earth with leaves, I don’t know… like something that isn’t sexy. It has great sillage, but I’m not enjoying it. I don’t like the OFF smell!!
It’s soft, talcum-powdery, fresh… ethereal. It’s not meant to grab 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 2ml tester set. The Mojave Ghost fragrance is soft, subtle, and non-intrusive; it clings like a second skin, feels clean, and that’s on trend. Many reviews label it as bad because it’s not strong or long-lasting, but they don’t understand that’s the summer trend in hot countries: staying fresh and even sleeping 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 appears at 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 smelled it once, but it’s incredibly fresh and perfect for spring and summer. I’ll grab a bottle as soon as I can. Later on, the only downside is the terrible longevity considering the low price. Still, it’s amazing; on me, it smells like a summer downpour in a garden.
Mojave Ghost, and I’m hitting the streets again today… 🎶🎶🎤
Smells like talcum powder mixed with bug spray…
This smells like talcum powder mixed with mosquito repellent…
That’s what a luxury hotel smells like.
The perfume is nice… although honestly, nothing exotic or as different as I expected. A versatile daily creation, a bit juicy fruity, a touch of dusty floral, and some woody-musky undertones. Typical second-skin aroma, like a luxurious cream or cosmetic. However, the scent is quite simple and doesn’t offer anything new, which, combined with unacceptable performance on my skin (lasting about 4 hours with poor projection), means I’ll never consider buying it. I don’t get the hype, to be honest. For me, a total disappointment.
It smells clean, but the trail is very weak. Not worth the high price; there are better alternatives.
I’ve loved this perfume since I tried it because it’s unique. Months ago, I stayed at a 5-star hotel in Egypt. I remember how good it smelled, and it stuck with me. When I smelled Mojave Ghost, the luxury hotel immediately came back to me. It’s luxury, freshness, elegance, cleanliness, and exclusivity. I can’t identify the notes, but the combination is perfect. No other perfume is like this.
Mojave. Oh, Mojave. What incredible branding, such a beautiful name and concept: a ghost, a transparent impression in the desert at sunset. Well, that’s what I thought, but it’s another fragrance perfect for pairing with the classic white button-down 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 says nothing about me. It’s spotless, discreet, a dusty brushstroke of light. I like it, though it doesn’t excite me, and the price is a turn-off. Its personality feels too narrow given the sheer amount of characterful beasts in the niche perfume market. A very well-executed skin scent 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 Byredo does 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 because of the name but the price point. It’s a clean scent with a fruity opening and a floral, powdery, musky dry down. Someone told me it smells like high-end Dove soap, if that even exists, and I think they nailed it. Decent longevity for something so light, almost six hours. It lacks a sillage trail and stays very close to the skin, though it has those glorious moments when a breeze or movement carries it. It was a sample I enjoyed, but not enough to buy a bottle or a decant.
Subtle fragrance bought blind and I liked it. Given the longevity issues, I paired it with the moisturizer, which provides incredible comfort. The combination is a great experience. It lasted about 3 hours with plenty of sprays, then I couldn’t smell it anymore. I’ll see if people around me catch it. Subtle, fresh, and pleasant aroma. It’s not the crazy performance you’d expect for the price, but it definitely smells good.
Yesterday I went to Sephora in Montreal looking for Black Friday deals and stumbled upon a Byredo display by chance. The sales associate 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 mom. Guys, there’s not much to say here—it’s a 100% feminine perfume, nothing unisex.
I love it; I’d wear it every day. It’s a super special fragrance that feels completely unlike anything else.
Clean, simple, and pure with a molecular touch. The longevity and projection aren’t amazing, but it’s meant to be enjoyed up close, in your own personal bubble. A true beauty.
