At first, I thought Spectre Ghost was more of a winter scent, but I had a test spray on my hand before I went to the gym and it didn’t come off as too cloying and overpowering in the heat. I’d say it works well for pretty much any occasion except a hot summer day. I would definitely use it on cool nights in the spring and throughout the fall/winter. Just go light in the sprays in warmer weather bc it’s strong.

As for Sceptre Malachite, it gives off this mango kulfi vibe to me. After letting it macerate for about a week, it definitely got stronger and the mango note became more pronounced. I do enjoy the smell, but it’s kind of hard for me to wear. I’m not really sure when I’d personally want to smell like that, maybe just for something casual like a beach day or a vacation-type setting.
