Eyes Closed vs Mojave Ghost

Eyes Closed by Byredo is a polarizing fragrance that generates strong reactions from both admirers and detractors. While supporters praise its unique carrot cake and spicy composition, excellent performance, and compliment-generating qualities, detractors find the powdery, papery notes off-putting and compare it unfavorably to dated fragrances. Testing before purchase is strongly recommended.

Mojave Ghost is widely appreciated for its clean, bright, and ethereal scent profile, making it a favorite summer fragrance. However, the community is divided over longevity—the original EDP's weak skin performance frustrates many, though the newer Absolu version resolves this at the cost of losing some of the original's delicate character. Longevity varies significantly based on application method and individual nose blindness.
