Bond No. 9 Central Park South is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Central Park South opens with Currant Blossom and Grapefruit Blossom, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes. Bond No. 9's Central Park South carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This loud white floral powerhouse is surprisingly divisive. While some find it a gorgeous, clean, fresh delight, others are distinctly underwhelmed or even repulsed. Don't blind buy; this is one you need to test first.

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:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal

Its powerful sillage and exceptional longevity make it less suitable for office environments, where a more intimate scent is often preferred. However, its sophisticated floral character and impressive performance are ideal for dates, formal events, and general casual wear where you want to make a lasting impression.

About

Central Park South opens with a bright, crisp blend of grapefruit and currant blossom, lending an initial fruity-green freshness. The heart is a powerful white floral bouquet of jasmine and lily-of-the-valley, often perceived as tuberose-like in its intensity and creaminess. It settles into a soft, yet prominent woody base, adding depth and warmth to the radiant florals. Some even detect an unexpected pineapple note, adding to its unique profile.
