Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lafayette Street EDP
Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street is a divisive one, hyped by many as a mass-appealing, versatile masterpiece, but dismissed by others as overpriced and utterly generic. It's safe, sure, but whether it smells 'luxurious' or like cheap wet wipes depends entirely on your nose and your budget.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Lafayette Street Extrait
Pearl Fragrances copies Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street's juicy apple-and-vanilla-amber signature well, though the wood-forward drydown that reviewers say the original morphs into after 15 minutes comes through softer and less complex.
