Whether you’re in the office, out with friends, or on a romantic evening, there’s a Ghost scent that promises quality and allure at a price that surprises.

6 Popular Ghost Perfumes for Women
From the spicy floral Mystical Dream to the deep and mysterious Orb of Night, here is my take on six stand-out Ghost perfumes.
1. Mystical Dream Eau de Parfum

Review
Feminine doesn’t have to mean gentle; Mystical Dream is a punchy, fresh, and slightly spicy scent that exudes feminine sensuality.
Opening with warm black pepper, blackcurrant, and zesty orange, Mystical Dream melts into a white floral heart of mostly tuberose.
As this scent settles, earthy patchouli moves in and is lifted by a whisper of tonka bean and vanilla.
Top Notes:
Blackcurrant, Orange, Black Pepper
Mid Notes:
Jasmine, Orange Flower, Tuberose
Base Notes:
Tinka Bean, Vanilla, Patchouli
Seasons & Longevity
An ideal autumn scent; it’s sensual, warm, and complex without being too musky or rich. You can get a solid 5+ hours of wear from one application.


2. Orb of Night Eau de Parfum

Review
Orb of Night is a relatively new fragrance from Ghost (2021), but it has already gathered a cult following, as it’s similar to Good Girl by Carolina Herrera.
Delicious aromas of sweet cherry, almond, bergamot, and mandarin are bolstered by a bouquet of pretty white flowers.
Smooth caramel soon creeps in, with musk and wood in the background. It’s sweet, complex, and feminine.
Top Notes:
Mandarin, Cherry, Almond, Bergamot
Mid Notes:
Orange Blossom, Freesia, Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine
Base Notes:
Sandalwood, Caramel, White Musk, Ambergris
Seasons & Longevity
I recommend Orb of Night for dressy autumn and winter evening wear, and it should last you an impressive 6+ hours.


3. Sweetheart Eau de Toilette

Review
Sweetheart is a perennial favourite of mine for dates and daytime events. It’s gentle and sweet but not immature. Perfect for bright and breezy days.
With notes of green apple, lemon zest, pineapple and spearmint, Sweetheart has a surprisingly zesty and effervescent start.
A floral bouquet of white flowers slowly lets sweet, smoky base notes such as caramel, patchouli, and sandalwood bleed through.
Top Notes:
Green Apple, Lemon Zest, Pineapple, Spearmint
Mid Notes:
Heliotrope, Jasmine, Rose, Lily-of-the-Valley
Base Notes:
Sandalwood, Caramel, Vetiver, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Oakmoss, Patchouli
Seasons & Longevity
Wear Sweetheart from spring to autumn, especially in the day, and you will surely turn heads. Downside: expect only 3 hours of wear.


4. Deep Night Eau de Toilette

Review
Deep Night is in my permanent rotation, so I may be biased when I say this is one of the sexiest, classiest perfumes on this list. It’s rich, alluring, and complex.
Indian rose and belle-de-nuit flower create a heavenly start with smoky edges that slowly melts to reveal exotic moonflower and peach.
For me, it’s the sweet vanilla and smooth wood aromas in the base that make this Deep Night so moreish.
Top Notes:
Indian Rose, Belle-de-Nuit Flower
Mid Notes:
Woodsy Notes, Peach, Night blooming Cereus (Moon Flower)
Base Notes:
Vanilla Orchid, Precious Wood, Musk, Amber
Seasons & Longevity
Wear Deep Night on cold winter and autumn nights when dressed to impress! This potent scent will last you 6+ hours, especially the wood and vanilla.


5. Ghost The Fragrance Eau de Toilette

Review
Sometimes, you simply want a light, airy, classically feminine rose scent, and Ghost the Fragrance is very much that perfume.
Aromas of powdery, fresh white rose and lily are soothed by smoked woods and sweet, musky vanilla; the result is timelessly gorgeous.
Top Notes:
White Lily, White Rose, Indian Ambrette Seed
Mid Notes:
Jasmine, Incense, Sandalwood
Base Notes:
Amber, Musk, Vanilla
Seasons & Longevity
Wear it on bright, airy days during any season to get the best results and expect around 4+ hours of noticeable scent.


6. Ghost Dream Eau de Parfum

Review
Sweet, powdery scents are mature and timeless. While they are not for everyone, they do add an elegant flair to any ensemble.
Ghost Dream is incredibly feminine, opening with fragrant aromas of rose supported by orange flower and aquatic notes.
It melts to a heart of violet and jasmine before the woody notes, musk, and smoky patchouli come to the fore.
Top Notes:
Rose, Maroccan Orange Flower, Aquaflora Note
Mid Notes:
Jasmine, Violet
Base Notes:
Woody Notes, Ambroxan, Musk, Patchouli
Seasons & Longevity
Ghost Dream is the perfect springtime scent, and while it’s a daytime perfume on paper, it does well in the evenings, too. I like it for first dates because it’s light, bright, and doesn’t take itself too seriously.



Sheree’s Top Pick

Orb of Night Eau de Parfum
My top pick is Orb of Night Eau de Parfum, as the caramel, cherry, and almond are cosy and soothing. Also, similar to the rather fabulous Good Girl by Carolina Herrera.
