Which Should You Buy?
Byredo's Mojave Ghost is the cult Scandi-cool sandalwood-violet-ambrette that wears like a powdered skin scent for people who hate strong perfume. EV's No. 60 chases the violet-sandalwood transparency well; what the dupe cannot fully replicate is the ambergris-dry-down halo.
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.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The powdery violet-sandalwood-musk profile works year-round with spring as the natural sweet spot; the quiet projection makes summer manageable too.
Occasions
The genuinely office-friendly niche signature - quiet enough not to disturb anyone, refined enough not to read cheap; the unisex character extends across most daytime settings.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
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.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Floral, Woody, Powdery accords and Sapodilla, Ambrette notes
