Spectre Ghost is a competent and affordable alternative to Nishane Ani that captures much of the original's character, making it a solid dupe for the price. However, it falls short of being a true 1:1 replacement, as some users detect an unwanted patchouli note in the drydown and find the original superior in direct comparison. Community consensus suggests it's better appreciated as a standalone fragrance rather than a true clone.
