The Muhavea confertiflora (also known as Desert Ghost Flower) is a rare plant that blooms on hard ground. In a desert environment the ghostly flower cannot produce nectar but it manages to keep its magnificent beauty, blooming yearly and mimicking the bee's suitor with its petals, attracting male bees by deceit.
This impressive and almost human behavior, along with its story of survival, inspired the creation of the Mojave Ghost fragrance. Mojave Ghost is a breathtaking composition for men and women alike. The aroma is so harmoniously balanced, no dominant notes are present, nor sharp floral tones nor suffocating sweetness. These chords seem to interwind with each other, creating an aromatic, beautiful and soft scent. Perfect for early spring, summer and autumn with a trail that may be perceived from arm's length.
The fragrance starts to unfold with a unique ambrette with a musk undertone, evoking the role of its honey pear. In the heart of the composition a stream of smooth magnolia, delicate violet and daring sandalwood swirls. Concluding with an ambre nuance, grey ambre and white cedarwood. All these together offering our skin the wilderness of the Mojave Ghost visual.
A remarkable, ethereal, light yet sophisticated scent that is a like “second skin”, perfect for everyday use. Might be unstable - subdued in cold, evolving in heat. Very beautiful! Unique. In my personal opinion, one of the best from Byredo.
