This ghost haunts my wardrobe

I tried Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum and although it smells heavenly to me, the scent faded after 2 hours. I guess it lives up to its name. Like a ghost. And at this price, I just can't justify buying it. Besides, my craving for this dusty, fruity iris scent was then fulfilled by Sonic Flower (which unfortunately also has minimal longevity).

But I still sometimes had to think of Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum. And wished it had a better H/S. So when I saw that Byredo had released an Absolu de Parfum version, I was curious. I read reviews online and saw that the majority of people preferred the new version. Many said that it has a much better H/S than the original. And I can confirm that.

Mojave Ghost Absolu de Parfum is 90% identical to the OG Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum. Powdery, dusty, woody and fruity. But here the fruitiness and woodiness are even stronger.

In the first 2 hours, I can't really tell the difference between this one and the original. Dustiness from the iris and ambrette, as transparent as a veil. With splashes of foamy, fruity shampoo. In the drydown, Mojave Ghost Absolu de Parfum becomes more fruity and woody. I can clearly recognize the cedar wood in the drydown. The iris ambrette veil has almost disappeared, but it is still there and lingers only slightly.

The H/S of this Mojave Ghost Absolu de Parfum and the OG Mojave Ghost Eau de Parfum are like night and day. Mojave Ghost Absolu de Parfum has a loud sillage and lasts forever on my winter coat. My wardrobe smells like Mojave Ghost Absolu de Parfum for a few weeks.

This time the ghost won't go away! You have to be careful when you spray this on! Otherwise you might need an exorcism hahaha. I can definitely say that I'm very happy to have Mojave Ghost Absolu de Parfum in my collection, and it's here to stay.
