Speedy review: GHOST Orb of Night edp, by GHOST...

 Possess the magic of nature’s most transformative moments: sundown and sunrise. Orb of Night breathes life into the new day.... 

The moon. The sun. Opposites in perfect harmony, sharing the canopy. Embracing their time to illuminate. Silent moments unveil the light. Romance is revealed in soft focus as the Orb of Night descends and a passionate sun rises once more. A time to escape and connect. The sky mesmerises. The depths of night quietly greet the possibilities of morning. Calm energy wraps the air, pure and all-consuming. Feel deeply. Let the warmth charge your soul.

An alluring cherry-almond flirts with a beating heart of treasured ethereal florals. Caramel melts upon a base of warm sandalwood signalling nocturnal riches. Intriguing orange blossom gently layers delicate white musk.

The original GHOST perfume is hands down my longest-term favourite fragrance and I've also really enjoyed several of the brand's other fragrances too, so knowing that this contains cherry notes was like a siren's song to me...

Speedy review: Ghost edt, by GHOST........

Understated, yet gloriously feminine and a true modern classic. 

Ghost the Fragrance is a seamless blend of cool elegance and unexpected warmth, timeless and pure. Silky top notes of Casablanca lily, white rose and Indian ambrette seed are heightened with smoked incense, jasmine and sandalwood. The base notes of spiced amber, musk and vanilla orchid give a relaxed intimacy.

This is one of those "I was sure that I'd already reviewed this" posts...

I bought a bottle of Ghost when it launched in my teens [the name alone interested me] and I still wear it now I'm in my 40s, so it is something that I feel deserves a shout out.
