Index: /llms.txt # Mojave Ghost Dupes 2026: 6 Picks Compared Six Mojave Ghost dupes and alternatives, from Nava Sol to Chance Eau Tendre, with the notes each keeps and drops. 10ML sells the original Byredo Mojave Ghost as a 3ml or 10ml decant to wear first. By [Victoria Frolova](https://10ml.com/authors/victoria-frolova) · Updated: 28 October 2026 · 9 min read **We sell only the originals.** Every perfume we sell is the authentic original, decanted from the perfume house’s own bottle. We buy our bottles from authorized EU distributors and directly from the brands, and 10ML decants every perfume itself. We never sell dupes, clones or inspired-by perfumes. This guide compares the dupes other houses make of Mojave Ghost, so you can choose, or wear the original first. [Or try the original from €15.93](https://10ml.com/perfumes/byredo-mojave-ghost) ## Quick answer The best Mojave Ghost dupe overall is Nava Sol by Rayhaan, which Parfumo voters find similar to both Mojave Ghost and its Absolu, and which is also the lowest-priced bottle we found. For a gentler take, one Fragrantica member finds Desert Glass by Oakcha lighter and airier. Want the real thing? Mojave Ghost is €45.81 for a 10ml decant at 10ML. You can try the original, [Mojave Ghost](https://10ml.com/perfumes/byredo-mojave-ghost), at 10ML as a 10 ml decant, before you choose a dupe. ## Prefer the original? **Mojave Ghost** · Byredo · Decanted from the original bottle - [3ml €15.93 · €5.31/ml](https://10ml.com/perfumes/byredo-mojave-ghost?size=3ml) - [10ml €45.81 · €4.58/ml](https://10ml.com/perfumes/byredo-mojave-ghost?size=10ml) The alternatives: €0.35–€0.82/ml in other shops, checked 1 October 2026 Mojave Ghost is a niche Byredo scent, and a full bottle at the house costs many times what a small decant does. That makes the original the sensible place to begin: a 3ml, around 60 sprays, is €15.93. If you came looking for [a small size to try](https://10ml.com/perfume-samples) before committing, that is it, filled from the original bottle. ## What does Mojave Ghost smell like? [Mojave Ghost](https://10ml.com/perfumes/byredo-mojave-ghost) by Byredo came out in 2014 and is listed as unisex. It opens on Jamaican naseberry, which brings a soft sweetness, with ambrette, a plant seed with a gentle musky tone. The heart is [magnolia](https://10ml.com/notes/magnolia), [violet](https://10ml.com/notes/violet) and [sandalwood](https://10ml.com/notes/sandalwood): pale flowers on a creamy wood. It settles on [cedarwood](https://10ml.com/notes/cedar), Chantilly [musk](https://10ml.com/notes/musk) and crisp amber. The listed accords are only woody, floral and musky, and that restraint is the point: a clean, quiet, skin-like scent where the fruit and flowers never shout. Byredo gives its own description on the [Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum page](https://www.byredo.com/eu_en/p/mojave-ghost-eau-de-parfum). ## Eau de Parfum or Absolu? 10ML sells the Eau de Parfum; the Absolu is not in its range now. Mojave Ghost Absolu arrived in 2024 as an Absolu de Parfum, and its note list follows the Eau de Parfum closely, with pear added to the top and vetiver added to the base. All but one of the Parfumo members who voted on the pair find the two very similar. Clone makers do not always say which one they followed, so the table shows a pick Parfumo voters have compared with each. **How the Eau de Parfum and the Absolu differ, with a pick to compare for each** | Version | Year | Scent profile | Pick to compare | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Eau de Parfum | 2014 | Naseberry and ambrette over magnolia, violet and sandalwood; cedarwood, musk and amber | Nava Sol | | Absolu de Parfum | 2024 | The same frame with pear on top and vetiver in the base | Petra Viola | ## Mojave Ghost alternatives compared Bottle prices in other shops, as checked 1 October 2026 Perfumes made and sold by other houses. 10ML does not sell them. | # | Alternative | Role | Basis of comparison | Source | Bottle price | Per ml | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Nava Sol (Rayhaan) | Best overall | Named source | [Source](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/rayhaan/nava-sol/vs/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum) | €34.99 (100 ml) | €0.35/ml | | 2 | Desert Glass (Oakcha) | Softer take | Named source | [Source](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Oakcha/Desert-Glass-92983.html) | €40.95 (50 ml) | €0.82/ml | | 3 | Petra Viola (Lattafa) | Sweeter take | Named source | [Source](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/Lattafa/petra-viola/vs/Byredo/mojave-ghost-absolu-de-parfum) | €49.32 (100 ml) | €0.49/ml | | 4 | Ghostbusters (Alexandria Fragrances) | Darker take | Named source | [Source](https://www.parfumo.com/Perfumes/Alexandria_Fragrances/ghostbusters/reviews/689263) | No EU price | — | | 5 | Musky Violet (Dossier) | Fresher take | Published notes | [Source](https://dossier.co/products/musky-violet) | No EU price | — | | 6 | Chance Eau Tendre (Chanel) | Premium alternative | Named source | [Source](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum/vs/Chanel/Chance_Eau_Tendre_Eau_deToilette) | No EU price | — | ## Best overall: Nava Sol Nava Sol by Rayhaan leads because Parfumo ties it to both versions: every member who voted on [its comparison with the Eau de Parfum](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/rayhaan/nava-sol/vs/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum) finds the two similar, and so does every voter on [its comparison with the Absolu](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/rayhaan/nava-sol/vs/Byredo/mojave-ghost-absolu-de-parfum). The pyramid Parfumo lists for it is Mojave Ghost's own: sapote and ambrette, then sandalwood, magnolia and violet, then ambergris, musk and cedar. [One Parfumo member](https://www.parfumo.com/Perfumes/rayhaan/nava-sol/reviews/710938) says it clearly carries the Mojave Ghost DNA. The main difference is how little is documented. Nava Sol is a 2026 release, so owner feedback is still thin: the case rests on a small group of Parfumo voters and one member's comment, and Rayhaan's own page makes no comparison with Mojave Ghost. Rayhaan sells it from [its EU shop](https://rayhaanperfumes.eu/products/nava-sol), shipped from the Netherlands. It suits someone who already knows they like Mojave Ghost or the Absolu and wants a large bottle for everyday spraying at the lowest outlay in this guide. Basis: a named source, the Parfumo comparison votes and a member's comment there. ## Softer take: Desert Glass Desert Glass by Oakcha lists much of the original's frame. [Fragrantica](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Oakcha/Desert-Glass-92983.html) gives ambrette and sapodilla, then violet, sandalwood and magnolia, then ambergris and cedarwood, and on [Parfumo's comparison page](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/oakcha/desert-glass/vs/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum), 15 of 16 voting members rate it similar to Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum. The main difference is texture. One Fragrantica member finds it a lighter, more airy, soapy and gentle version of Mojave Ghost, and another remembers a similar DNA. The first member also suggests looking elsewhere for a closer likeness, so read it as a softened relative rather than a stand-in. It suits a wearer who wants Mojave Ghost's frame turned down further, in a cleaner, quieter version for close wear. Basis: a named source, two members on Fragrantica and the Parfumo comparison. ## Sweeter take: Petra Viola Petra Viola by Lattafa is a sweeter cousin, and it is compared with the Absolu rather than the Eau de Parfum. On [Parfumo's comparison with the Absolu](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/Lattafa/petra-viola/vs/Byredo/mojave-ghost-absolu-de-parfum), 9 of 15 voting members find the two similar. Its listed notes, raspberry and cotton candy among them, differ a lot from the original's. The main difference is the sugar at the start. [One Parfumo member](https://www.parfumo.com/Perfumes/Lattafa/petra-viola/reviews/700334) finds it opens as sugared raspberry and only turns woodier and muskier, towards the Absolu, as it settles; that member calls it an inspiration rather than a dupe. Another, on [Fragrantica](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Lattafa-Perfumes/Petra-Viola-136793.html), finds it has the Absolu's vibe, just sweeter. It suits someone who likes the Absolu's musky woods but would happily trade some of its restraint for a fruitier, candied opening. Basis: a named source, the Parfumo comparison and two members' comments. ## Darker take: Ghostbusters Ghostbusters by Alexandria Fragrances makes no secret of its target. [The house's product page](https://alexandriafragrances.com/products/ghostbusters-inspired-by-mojave-ghost-byredo) names Mojave Ghost as the inspiration and lists magnolia, violet, sapodilla and ambergris. Magnolia and violet are the shared flowers. The main difference is density. [One Parfumo member](https://www.parfumo.com/Perfumes/Alexandria_Fragrances/ghostbusters/reviews/689263) finds the smell spot on but denser than the airy original. [Another](https://www.parfumo.com/Perfumes/Alexandria_Fragrances/ghostbusters/reviews/653029), wearing both at once, finds it close but missing the original's brightness, like Mojave Ghost on a smoker's leather jacket. It suits someone who finds the original too sheer and wants the same flowers with more shadow underneath. Basis: a named source, two Parfumo members and the house's own list. ## Fresher take: Musky Violet Musky Violet by Dossier names Mojave Ghost as its inspiration on [its own page](https://dossier.co/products/musky-violet), and on [Parfumo's comparison page](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/dossier/musky-violet/vs/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum), 10 of 13 voting members find it similar to Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum. Going by the lists, the shared ground is violet, musk, sandalwood and cedarwood. The main difference, on paper, is the top of the list. Dossier lists watermelon, green apple and peach on top, then [violet leaf](https://10ml.com/guides/violet-perfumes), iris, jasmine and rose, then musks, sandalwood, cedarwood and vetiver. There is no sapodilla on its list, and no ambrette or magnolia either. It suits someone who wants the violet-and-musk side of the Mojave Ghost idea and is curious about a different set of fruits up top. Basis: published notes only, so treat the resemblance as a reading of the note lists, not a proven match. ## Premium alternative: Chance Eau Tendre Chance Eau Tendre by Chanel is not a clone. It is a designer perfume that turns up when people look for Mojave Ghost alternatives, and it is the sideways step rather than a saving. On [Parfumo's comparison page](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum/vs/Chanel/Chance_Eau_Tendre_Eau_deToilette), just over half of the voting members find the Eau Tendre Eau de Toilette and Mojave Ghost similar. They share musk, amber and cedarwood. The main difference is the start. Eau Tendre opens on quince and grapefruit with hyacinth, jasmine and iris, where the original lists naseberry and ambrette, then magnolia and violet. In a [Fragrantica forum thread on perfumes similar to Mojave Ghost](https://www.fragrantica.com/board/viewtopic.php?id=323222), one member gets a similar vibe from it and would wear the two for the same occasions. It suits someone who wants a well-known designer scent in the same soft, musky lane and accepts that opinion is split close to half and half. Basis: a named source, the Parfumo comparison and the forum thread. ## Similar original perfumes we stock Original perfumes that share Mojave Ghost's soft musk, pale flowers and woods, each as a decant filled from the original bottle. | # | Perfume | Main notes | 3 ml | 10 ml | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | [Xerjoff Dama Bianca](https://10ml.com/perfumes/xerjoff-dama-bianca) | Violet, ambrette, sandalwood, cedarwood and white musk, with iris, lilac and a little vanilla. | €9.81 (€3.27/ml) | €29.25 (€2.93/ml) | | 2 | [Creed Love in White](https://10ml.com/perfumes/creed-love-in-white) | Magnolia, iris, rice and rose over sandalwood, cedarwood and musk, after an apple and apricot opening. | €14.85 (€4.95/ml) | €42.21 (€4.22/ml) | | 3 | [Initio Parfums Privés Power Self](https://10ml.com/perfumes/initio-parfums-prives-power-self) | Magnolia, osmanthus and white rose over Ambroxan, cedarwood and musk, lifted by pink pepper. | €11.25 (€3.75/ml) | €33.39 (€3.34/ml) | ## Where the clones leave the original's notes Mojave Ghost's top is unusual. Naseberry, listed elsewhere as sapodilla or sapote, is the note to watch, and the clones handle it in different ways. Desert Glass and Ghostbusters keep sapodilla on their lists; Musky Violet replaces it with watermelon, green apple and peach; Petra Viola goes to raspberry and cotton candy. Chance Eau Tendre was never aiming at it and opens on quince and grapefruit. The base is the other sticking point. The original pairs cedarwood and musk with a crisp amber, and several clones list ambergris there instead, or add vetiver. If the quiet, clean skin feel is what you love, that is where to pay attention when you compare. ## Clone bottle or a Mojave Ghost decant? Per ml, the three clones we could price in euros cost far less than the original in any size. A 10ml decant of Mojave Ghost is €45.81 (€4.58/ml), and a 30ml is see the product page. Ghostbusters and Musky Violet show no price in the table because we found no euro list price on the check date, and Chance Eau Tendre had no confirmed euro price either. Per decision, the picture flips. The 3ml costs less than any clone bottle we could price in euros. 10ML stocks the Eau de Parfum, so wear that version first and compare the clones against it. If you end up loving the original, the 30ml brings the per-ml rate down. Our [price per ml index](https://10ml.com/guides/perfume-price-per-ml-index) puts the numbers in context. ## Authentic perfumes in the same soft register Three originals from other houses share part of the musky, floral-woody feel. [Dama Bianca](https://10ml.com/perfumes/xerjoff-dama-bianca) by Xerjoff shares the most listed notes: violet, ambrette, sandalwood, cedarwood and white musk, with iris, kumquat, lime, jasmine, lilac and vanilla around them. [Love in White](https://10ml.com/perfumes/creed-love-in-white) by Creed sets magnolia, iris, rice and rose over sandalwood, cedarwood, musk and ambergris, after an apple, apricot and orange opening. [Power Self](https://10ml.com/perfumes/initio-parfums-prives-power-self) by Initio Parfums Prives is magnolia, osmanthus and white rose over Ambroxan, cedarwood and musk, with pink pepper on top. For more of the house, see [the best Byredo perfumes](https://10ml.com/guides/best-byredo-perfumes), and for the base material, [white musk perfumes](https://10ml.com/guides/white-musk-perfumes). For more soft violet and musk, see our guide to [powdery perfumes](https://10ml.com/guides/powdery-perfumes). ## How to test a dupe Musky, quiet scents are hard to judge on yourself, because musk can slip out of your own attention while people near you still notice it. So test Mojave Ghost and any clone on different days, on skin rather than a card, and check three moments: the naseberry and ambrette at the start, the magnolia and violet once it has settled, and the cedarwood and musk in the evening. If you can, ask someone close to you which one they notice more. A 3ml of [Mojave Ghost](https://10ml.com/perfumes/byredo-mojave-ghost) is enough for that comparison. Should the original win, move up to a 10ml decant (around 200 sprays) for regular wear, or a 30ml (around 600) if it becomes your signature. Read [how decants are filled](https://10ml.com/guides/what-is-a-perfume-decant) and [why a blind buy is avoidable](https://10ml.com/guides/blind-buy-alternative), and if you like the creamy-wood side of this scent, our [Le Labo Santal dupes guide](https://10ml.com/guides/santal-33-dupes) is the natural next stop. ## Clone or original? What to know first ### Can I try Mojave Ghost in a small size before spending on a dupe? Yes: 10ML sells it as a 3ml decant filled from the original bottle, around 60 sprays, for €15.93. That costs less than any clone bottle we could price in euros, and 10ml and 30ml decants follow if you love it. ### Why is Nava Sol the Mojave Ghost dupe we put first? Every Parfumo member who voted on its comparisons with Mojave Ghost and with the Absolu finds them similar, a member there says it clearly carries the Mojave Ghost DNA, and it is the lowest-priced bottle we found. It is a 2026 release, so there is little owner feedback yet. ### Is any of these clones a near match for Mojave Ghost? No source we found makes that case without dissent, so we single none out. Desert Glass and Ghostbusters each have members who find them similar, but both are described as different in weight: Desert Glass lighter, Ghostbusters denser. ### Should I compare the clones with Mojave Ghost or the Absolu? It depends on the clone. Parfumo voters link Nava Sol to both versions, and Petra Viola to the Absolu. The Absolu adds pear and vetiver to the same frame, but 10ML stocks the Eau de Parfum, so compare the clones against that version first. ### How do Mojave Ghost clones compare per ml with a decant? Every clone we could price in euros costs far less per ml. A 10ml decant of Mojave Ghost is €45.81 (€4.58/ml), so a clone wins on volume once you know the style suits you. ### Is Chance Eau Tendre a real alternative to Mojave Ghost? For some people. It is a designer perfume, not a clone, and just over half of the Parfumo members who voted find the two similar. They share musk, amber and cedarwood, but Eau Tendre opens on quince and grapefruit. ### How long does Mojave Ghost stay with you once sprayed? It varies with skin, weather and how much you apply, so we do not promise a figure. A 3ml lets you see how it behaves on you across a few ordinary days. ### Is Mojave Ghost worth it over a clone? Try the original in a 3ml first. At €15.93 it gives around 60 sprays to learn what a clone has to match, and you can then judge whether a clone bottle covers what you want from it. ### Does 10ML sell dupes? No. 10ML sells only original perfumes. We buy our bottles from authorized EU distributors and directly from the brands, and 10ML decants every perfume itself. The dupes in this guide are other houses’ perfumes, and we don’t sell them. You can wear the original first from €15.93. ## Sources - [Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum (Byredo)](https://www.byredo.com/eu_en/p/mojave-ghost-eau-de-parfum) - [Nava Sol vs Mojave Ghost (Parfumo comparison)](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/rayhaan/nava-sol/vs/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum) - [Desert Glass by Oakcha (Fragrantica)](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Oakcha/Desert-Glass-92983.html) - [Petra Viola vs Mojave Ghost Absolu (Parfumo comparison)](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/Lattafa/petra-viola/vs/Byredo/mojave-ghost-absolu-de-parfum) - [Ghostbusters member write-up (Parfumo)](https://www.parfumo.com/Perfumes/Alexandria_Fragrances/ghostbusters/reviews/653029) - [Musky Violet (Dossier)](https://dossier.co/products/musky-violet) - [Mojave Ghost vs Chance Eau Tendre (Parfumo comparison)](https://www.parfumo.com/compare/Byredo/Mojave_Ghost_Eau_de_Parfum/vs/Chanel/Chance_Eau_Tendre_Eau_deToilette) - [Perfumes similar to Mojave Ghost?
