Amazon Spring Deals Days has slashed the price of Ghost perfumes, some of which are more than half of their usual price, which is welcome news with Mother’s Day this Sunday. The Ghost fragrance range has been around for some time, and over the years, it’s become a go-to for my mum, who typically wears it as her day-to-day perfume, given its reasonably affordable price tag. When Mother’s Day rolls around, I know she’d be over the moon with a new bottle of her signature scent.
If your mum is anything like mine (or your step-mum, grandma, auntie, best friend or whoever you are treating this Mother’s Day), then the sale is a good chance to pick one of the Ghost fragrances at a fraction of their usual price.
The cost of fragrances varies depending on the scent you are buying. For example, the Ghost Sweetheart Forever perfume enjoys one of the biggest savings in the sale – it’s more than half price! The popular Ghost Orb of Night is 32% cheaper.
However, the Amazon Spring Deals Days sale lasts until March 30, and though a deal may be live now, it isn’t guaranteed to stay.
My mum wears a few different fragrances from the Ghost range, but the original Ghost The Fragrance is one of her favourites. It’s been a go-to gift for Mother’s Day, birthdays and Christmas for many years, so its status as a classic scent is not without merit.
The 50ml fragrance is currently more than half its usual price, on sale for just £20 (it usually retails for £44). That means it’s cheaper to buy than from Debenhams and Ghost, where the same-sized bottle retails for £35.20 and £44, respectively.
The perfume comes in a frosted glass bottle with a sleek, curved shape, which looks lovely displayed on a dressing table. The musky floral scent has notes of jasmine and peach, and I think it’s instantly recognisable (any time I smell it, I always think of my mum).
One of the biggest discounts is on the 50ml Ghost Sweetheart Forever, which is currently 55% cheaper. According to the price comparison website camelcamelcamel, the perfume is at the lowest price it has ever been on Amazon.
Though it usually retails for £44, as part of the sale, you can get it for £19.99. Interestingly, it’s not currently available to buy direct from the Ghost website. You can buy it from LookFantastic, though it is noticeably more expensive than on Amazon (it’s currently £40 for the 50ml bottle).
The perfume offers a sweet, floral scent with woody undertones and comes in a pretty pink-hued glass bottle, which would look lovely as a gift. The perfume has a 4.7-star rating from shoppers who have previously bought the perfume, with one commenter saying they love the smell. In a review, they wrote: “Love this perfume and definitely value for money. I only need one spray and [it] lasts all day!” [SIC]
According to Ghost, the Orb of Night perfume is one of the best-selling fragrances from the entire range. It’s probably most recognisable from its iconic crescent moon bottle in a shade of copper. The beautiful bottle makes it a great gift option, ideal for someone who likes to display their perfumes on their dressing table or shelf.
Like most Ghost fragrances, it is a soft scent with floral notes and hints of cherry and almond. As part of the Amazon deal, you can currently save 32%. The perfume, which usually retails for £27.62 on Amazon, is £18.72.
It’s considerably cheaper than buying it directly from Ghost, where a 75ml (the smallest size available) is currently £55.
However, this is a limited-time deal. A tracker bar on the Amazon deal page shows how many shoppers have snapped up the offer. Once the bar is completed, the discount could vanish or change.
