Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mojave Ghost Absolu Parfum
A divisive upgrade to a beloved classic. Mojave Ghost Absolu promises more depth and longevity, and for some, it delivers a richer, fruitier experience. For others, it loses the original's ethereal charm, becoming too syrupy or, tragically, a Ghost of its former self in performance.

Our Verdict - Mojave Phantom Absolu - 2583 EDP
Mojave Phantom Absolu is Perfume Parlour's dupe of Byredo's Mojave Ghost Absolu, matching its ambrette-magnolia-sandalwood-musk signature closely. It captures the airy, dry-down 'ghost' quality that made the original a cult favourite reasonably well, though it settles into a simpler, less nuanced musk than Byredo's naturals-forward original.

Its clean, floral-musky accords make it highly appropriate for office and casual wear. While some find its performance strong, many reviews cite short longevity, keeping its projection gentle enough for professional settings. Its subtle sweetness lends itself well to date nights without being overpowering.
