Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Fragrance EDT
A modern classic that balances powdery rose, creamy vanilla, and juicy peach in an ethereal, comforting mist. Ghost is timeless, soothing, and quietly magnetic-never loud, but always memorable.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Ghost - 870 EDP
No. 870 captures the soft rose-and-musk delicacy of the classic Ghost fragrance reasonably well up close, but it's noticeably quieter and shorter-lived than the original's mandarin-peach-sandalwood signature.

Season and Occasion Fit

The Fragrance

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

The powdery, musky rose and sweet vanilla-peach blend is airy enough for spring and fall but can be cozy in winter. Summer wear is possible if applied lightly, as it may become too sweet in high heat.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its soft, intimate sillage and comforting, powdery character make it ideal for office and casual wear, and it is romantic for dates. It's too understated for very formal events and not fresh enough for sport.

Ghost - 870

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Autumn

The soft rose-musk profile is gentle enough for spring and early autumn wear, without the fruity warmth or projection to make an impression in summer heat or winter cold.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Quiet and comfortable enough for the office and daytime casual wear; the romantic rose-musk character also suits a low-key date, but it lacks the presence for formal events.
