Mojave Ghost by Byredo is a pale, woody floral built around desert flowers. Naseberry and ambrette open it soft and slightly musky rather than sweet. Magnolia and violet take the heart, with sandalwood underneath keeping it smooth rather than powdery. The base settles into cedarwood, musk and a crisp amber, dry and a little dusty. It arrived in 2014 and reads unisex on skin, suiting anyone who wants a floral that stays quiet rather than loud. Voters keep it for spring, through the day and into the office. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, and the sillage vote settles on moderate as well. A 3ml decant is enough to wear it through a spring working week before you decide.

The community verdict
Jamaican naseberry and ambrette start Mojave Ghost with a soft fruity note before magnolia, violet and sandalwood come through. Most find its staying power and projection moderate. Its airy woody floral character suits spring days and the office, with autumn another option.

The house
More from Byredo
Byredo was founded in Stockholm in 2006 by Ben Gorham, and its perfumes have a spare, Scandinavian clarity. Musk and sandalwood sit under most of them, with violet, blackcurrant and pink pepper for colour and aldehydes for a clean, airy lift. Bal d'Afrique Absolu and the original Bal d'Afrique lead the way, the second a bright mix of citrus, flowers and woods. Gypsy Water is fresh and aromatic over soft woods. Blanche is crisp and pale, all aldehydes, flowers and musk. Mojave Ghost sits between them, woody and floral with a musky finish.
