Rayhaan did it again. I really don’t know how they drop banger after banger. This right here is amazing so far and I know after letting it sit it’s gonna basically be a 1:1. Ima call it right now to be over 90% similar to the OG, and it projects and this bottle is fresh. I have the Og and I love it so now I can use this one any time instead of killing my Og because it is expensive. I can say Whole heartedly so far with this new bottle if you don’t have the bread for the OG and you like it enuff, you can definitely cop this for the fraction of the price you will love it the same. Somebody like me has to have both. 🤣

Go to the store and try on Byredo Mojave Ghost Absolu, And if you like that sent this is exactly that just $300 cheaper and it will last longer. I have bought and returned a lot of dupes that don’t come close to the scent they are copying but this one is a very close 1 to 1.

I love it. Haven't smelled the original and because of it, i'm planning to buy it! Highly recommend for those who wanted freshies scent!

This is definitely a feminine fragrance, nothing masculine about it. Heavy on the sweet pear, like canned Dole Pears in a sweet syrup. Reminds me a bit of Blue Talisman/Legacy Maison Asrar, but where Legacy is Pear and Citrus (leans masculine) this is sweet Pear and Flowers (leans feminine). Not sure what to make of it and may need time to mature to achieve a deeper scent. It's not a hard pass, but you should try to get your hands on the OG/sample first. I can wear feminine/ unisex scents but this might lean to far into women's perfume territory. Would not recommend blind buying like I did.

First impression: This fragrance feels very unique. I never smell another fragrance like this before. When I was a kid, I used to buy some Lollipop with watermelon and bubblegum flavor that just reminds me of. It is not a bad smell, just unique, which I enjoy. However, I work in a closed space, and I don't know if people around me will enjoy this. I don't think it is better than Cedrus Blanc but still good.

if this is what the real thing smells like then everyones insane. idc this is so mid. I want my money back

Welp, I’m definitely in the minority bc I can’t with this one...this is a prime example of looking at notes & the scent family of a fragrance & thinking it will be for you & finding its not (& a reminder that you can’t judge a fragrance by either the notes or scent family alone or that there’s no guarantee you’ll enjoy a fragrance based off either 😭😂!). Also, a reminder to not go based off of smelling a fragrance in the air, from the atomizer, on paper or fabric—putting the fragrance to your skin is essential to know what it’s going to smell like on you. You could spray on your clothing (which at least is like a blank canvas that can give you the true essence of the fragrance itself or maybe if it doesn’t interact with your skin how you want or enjoyably, but you still enjoy the fragrance & want to wear it, but not on skin), but if you’re like what I imagine most people to be like, you want to put your fragrance on your skin at least a little! I haven’t smelled either Mojave Ghost or Mojave Ghost Absolu & have no frame of reference for comparison, but if this is as close of a “dupe” as I’ve heard/read, at least I don’t feel as though I’m missing out & that’s a chunk of change to put towards another fragrance or fragrances (but now I really want to smell them to see if & where there are differences etc. & if I would actually enjoy either or both of them, but then again, maybe better off leaving well enough alone & accept my sentiments on this as a pass on them & remain none the wiser 😅😂...they’re not exactly within my budget!). I will say if you enjoy this, then you’re getting your money’s worth bc she has staying power! I’ve washed my hand several times & she’s holding strong (I mean she’s definitely faded, but she’s still there)! WHY IS IT THE ONES YOU WANT TO SCRUB OFF REFUSE TO GO & HAVE THE LASTING POWER OF DOUBLE DOSING VIAGRA?!?! 😩🤣🤣🤣 I just got her today, so can’t speak to sillage or projection & while I think she’s more on the strong moderate side, she’s definitely got longevity. I’m relieved I only sprayed my hand bc I can only imagine the scent bubble & knowing the longevity is there (at least on my skin), I would be trying to cope with it for quite sometime waiting for her to dissipate! It’s literally been hours since I sprayed my hand & washed my hands multiple times) & I’m still getting wafts even though she’s faded beyond a skin scent... I wish I could give a clear deciphered picture of what I’m getting from her, but idk if I can... She’s kind of giving a hairspray-esque vibe. I briefly became optimistic bc I swore I got almost a citrusy vibe & thought maybe if I patiently waited things would evolve pleasantly for me, but it was fast & fleeting. I don’t get pear 🍐, but an off putting stale, chalky, synthetic/chemical sweetness (that I can’t put my finger on, identify or attribute to any specific note) & (to me) unfortunately, it’s a sickeningly cloying characteristic. I can’t say for certain, but believe it might be the chemical notes meant to replicate sapodilla & violet along with the ambrette & ambergris all mixed together in the composition that my senses aren’t vibing with & appreciating. I’m not getting what my idea of a “clean” or musk fragrance is either & I’ve gotten the sense that this is supposed to give a calming, peaceful vibe, but I’m not getting that either. All I can describe it as is a mishmash of synthetic chemical notes that don’t create a cohesive pleasant scent. I guess it leans feminine more than masculine, but I wouldn’t (of my own volition) put this on anyone... The best comparison in fragrance I can offer is (& I am NOT saying they’re 1:1 or even that similar, but very loosely reminiscent or in the same realm in SOME ways) is a bug repellent that was mixed with notes to try to cover the bug spray chemicals to make it more palatable, in the beginning a touch of potpourri with a a couple drops of Qissa Gala in the mix (disclaimer this is the fragrance that it SLIGHTLY echoed reminiscent of to me—while I don’t love Qissa Gala, I also don’t dislike or “hate” it, but I have to be in the mood—which is rare & make a deliberate choice/intent to wear & it is very distantly reminiscent in parts to me at least from the beginning to the middle & idk why & then that slight reminiscent similarity ends). Qissa Gala is a sweet, white floral powdery fragrance to me—which I can’t say I get from Nava Sol, but there’s something in both of them that remind me (temporarily) or are slightly similar to one another??? PS if you love this fragrance, I’m not at all trying to be an a**hole! It’s just not for me, but am HAPPY for those who love or even enjoy it...I’m bummed & perplexed why I’m not feeling the same way as so many seem to about it...

The smell is pretty linear from the first spritz to after an hour later. It's a clean girl smell with a hint of powder from the violet. I'd say this smell perfect for spring / summer. Definitely daytime. My husband said it smells a bit like room freshener, to which I kind of agree 😂. Bu t I personally love the scent. Its feminine, its gentle, and clean smelling perfume.

Loving the presentation on this. I haven't smelled it yet, so we'll have to wait and see. But when i first saw the note pyramid, my heart jumped a little bit. i was hoping it would be a recreation of Narciso Rodriguez for him EDP intense. God i miss that DNA. They don't make these types of fragrances anymore. Plz Rayhaan make a clone of it 🥺

10/10 from the first spray. I can see how it leans feminine but a guy can definitely pull it off. A sweet citrus almost candy-like but it's not overly sweet. Summer night scent recommended, date night for sure. Moderate projection and sillage. This is definitely a great pick up. Will test longevity and report back soon.

Just got this in and 🤮 its definitely not for men. And I couldn't see any woman under the age of 68 wearing this. Its pretty disgusting. I wonder how many clone houses are paying Neeb from Aromatix. Cuz as per his words this was amazing. I dont know what he is smelling but its rancid.

Spot on dupe for MG, I didn’t think it could be too strong... but this is definitely inching on too strong for me 🤣 this is everything I wanted Petra viola to be.
