Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York Nights EDP
Bond No. 9 New York Nights is a confusing beast - a divisive gourmand that throws everything but the kitchen sink at you. You'll either get creamy banana bread dreams or nail polish remover. Not for the faint-hearted or those seeking linear perfection, but undoubtedly unique.
Statement
Our Verdict - New York Nights EDP
A dupe of Bond No. 9's New York Nights - the coffee-caramel gourmand finish is the standout match, though the white florals up top are thinner than the original's opulent bouquet.

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Also Works:
Casual

With significant sweetness and prominent caramel and coffee accords, this leans away from formal or office settings. Its strong sillage and 'date night' mentions in reviews highlight its suitability for intimate evening wear and casual outings, though some find it versatile enough for year-round wear.
