Best on ChatGPT (avg #4.0), weakest on Perplexity (#11.0)

Buyers4.31,131 ratings

Owners love the elegant, clean scent profile and its non-overpowering nature, but are sharply divided by poor longevity—lasting only minutes to a couple hours—which many feel unjustifiable at $100+.

Brand claims1/2 true2 promises checked

Ellis Brooklyn Myth's scent profile claim is well-supported—buyers genuinely love its clean, elegant, non-overpowering character. However, the 'Long Lasting' specification is materially contradicted by widespread buyer reports of poor longevity (15 minutes to 2 hours), which is a critical gap at the $100+ price point. Other claims about ingredients, certifications, and notes remain unverified by the available review data.

All sides but one land high — Holds up — with one check: the longevity claim is overstated.

The verdict

What the panel makes of it.

Myth ranks third among clean perfumes but struggles with a critical longevity gap: while buyers praise its elegant, understated scent, the fragrance typically lasts 15 minutes to two hours, a significant shortfall for a $86–$115 purchase that marketing claims is long-lasting.

In their words

This fragrance has a soft light smell. Not over powering! It is an elegant and pleasant scent, perfect for the day to day or something to wear to a special event, this fragrance is sure to please. I've been looking for this type of scent for a long time. I received this product complimentary from Ellis Brooklyn

Ecrum · verified purchase · bluemercury.com

I truly love the smell of this perfume. It's unique and I could wear it to both formal and casual events. My issue is that the scent wears off so fast - only 15-20 minutes after putting it on. I thought maybe it was just me so I asked others if they can smell my perfume 20 minutes after spraying and all said no.
