Ghost perfume on sale for £28

Christmas is well on its way, and whether you’re shopping for presents for a fragrance enthusiast or looking for a new signature scent for the new year, it’s not too late to save on a designer fragrance. A popular perfume by Ghost is on sale at Amazon, and shoppers can get it for less than £30.

The online retailer has slashed the price of a 75ml bottle of Ghost Orb of Night Eau de Parfum by nearly half, dropping the price from £55 to £28.29, reports Essex Live. This is cheaper than at The Perfume Shop, where a 30ml bottle costs £30 – meaning beauty enthusiasts can secure more than double the quantity for nearly the same price through Amazon’s offer.

Orb of Night is a sweet perfume, combining top notes of dark fruit, mandarin, almond and bergamot, with a floral heart of jasmine, freesia, orange blossom and ylang-ylang, and earthier base notes of sandalwood, white musk, roasted tonka and ambergris.

Presented in the brand’s distinctive crescent moon bottle, this fragrance would look pretty on a dressing table or shelf, and is unmistakably Ghost. If you’re already a fan of this scent, this is a great opportunity to stock up; the scent could also work for many age groups. It’s great for lovers of sweeter, fruitier scents, but the earthier base notes give it a more sophisticated edge.

If you are considering getting it as a Christmas gift for someone, Amazon guarantees delivery by December 25 if you order today. As of December 17, they say that if you order today, it should arrive five days before Christmas. 

Ghost Orb of Night has some loyal fans online, with many saying it attracts compliments. One said: “Love this perfume, it’s my all-time favourite and everyone compliments it.”

“Gorgeous perfume.” another review said. “I get plenty of compliments when wearing it, will definitely buy again.”

Another five-star review said: “I’m a big fan of Ghost perfumes and this is my umpteenth one. Great smell, just right for autumn and winter, a lovely warm scent. Lasts for days on clothes.”

Others thought it would make a great gift, with one shopper saying: “Some time ago I received a sample and was taken by how beautiful it smelt, I then found this on Amazon at an amazing price and great size, and I ordered it. I was so pleased with my purchase, I ended up buying thrrr more to put away as presents for Christmas.”

However, some people found the perfume to be “a little too sweet-smelling” for their taste, with others noting that the scent did not last as long as they would have liked. One review read: “I usually love Ghost, but this wasn’t for me. Scent didn’t last very long.”

As with every fragrance, shoppers unfamiliar with a scent should always try it in-store before committing to a full bottle.
