Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bleecker Street EDP

This one is a divisive but celebrated green-fruity freshie. Some find it a masterful, unique blend perfect for spring, while others dismiss it as synthetic, weak, and wildly overpriced. Many highlight the green, violet leaf, and blueberry notes, with a recurring comparison to certain Creed fragrances.

Our Verdict - Emerald Street EDP

Emerald Street is Alexandria UK's dupe of Bond No. 9's Bleecker Street, chasing its tart violet-leaf-and-blueberry opening over an oakmoss-cedar base. The fruity green top note lands close, but the mossy suede drydown that gives the original its polish is thinner and shorter here.

Its fresh, clean profile makes it suitable for casual and sport settings, with some finding it versatile enough for dates. However, its often-reported moderate projection and sillage, combined with its distinct green and blueberry character, make it less ideal for formal events or a quiet office.
