Bond No. 9 Andy Warhol Lexington Avenue is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Claude Dir. Andy Warhol Lexington Avenue opens with Cypress, Cardamom, Star Anise, and Fennel, settles into a heart of Crème Brûlée, Iris, Peony, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Patchouli. Bond No. 9's Andy Warhol Lexington Avenue carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Lexington Avenue is a divisive gourmand. Some find it a warm, inviting embrace, while others are left cold by its fleeting nature and sometimes clashing notes. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with performance being a common sticking point.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for dates and casual wear without being overwhelming. The gourmand and spicy nature might be a bit much for a formal setting or an active sport environment, and while fine for office, it's not its best fit.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine stepping into a cosy, spiced bakery at Christmas. This fragrance opens with an aromatic burst of cypress, star anise, and cardamom, immediately setting a warm, slightly festive tone. It then melts into a creamy heart of crème brûlée and almond, balanced by the delicate floral touch of iris and peony. The journey settles into a comforting base of smooth sandalwood and earthy patchouli, leaving a subtly sweet and woody trail that evokes a sense of luxurious comfort.
