What does Spectre Ghost smell like?

Voters rate its longevity as strong and its sillage as good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, spring follows, and summer is the least chosen season. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and it also works for leisure time. Voters read it as more masculine.

Bergamot, green notes, pink pepper and ginger give it a fresh, spicy start. The heart holds Turkish rose, cardamom and blackcurrant. In the base, vanilla, patchouli, cedar and sandalwood sweeten it and settle into woody warmth. Benzoin and musk close it with a creamy softness. Nishane Ani and The Dua Brand Drowning in Vanilla have a close profile.
