Bond No.9 Perfume Collection


I have a new fragrance obsession: Bond No.9 perfumes. Bond No.9 is a perfume boutique located at you guessed it, 9 Bond St in Manhattan, and has launched a collection of perfumes to pay homage to New York City, "To restore artistry to perfumery, and to mark every New York neighborhood with a scent of its own. Each fragrance represents a specific downtown, midtown, or uptown locale or a city-wide sensibility."

So each perfume is named after a street or an area of New York and tries to represent its essence in a fragrance. For example one of my favorites, Wall Street, is a cool "career scent" with notes of sea kale, cucumber, lavender, ambergris, vetiver - if you've heard of a power tie, this would be the perfume equivalent. Or Andy Warhol Lexington Avenue, is in a Warhol-esque illustrated bottle to depict two utterly feminine obsessions shoes and sexy perfume. Its notes are blue cypress, fennel, roasted almonds, pink peony, crème brulée, and sandalwood.

With over 34 different perfumes to choose from, each bottle and the scent inside is a work of art. Even the samples make a statement- they are wrapped up like bon bons in metallic paper. Such an amazing line of fragrances that make you feel sexy no matter what you're wearing!

To learn a a little more about the collection or to order some samples online, visit the Bond No.9 website.
