Which Should You Buy?
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.
Divisive, unique, and utterly intriguing. Most find this a compelling blend of sweet gourmand notes and fresh florals, but a vocal minority are left cold by what they perceive as an "oudy" darkness or even a "nail varnish" vibe. Try before you commit.
