Eau de New York

by Vera Vanore

Bond No. 9 Eau de New York is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2004, created by Vera Vanore. Eau de New York opens with Petitgrain, Green, Rainwater, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Basil, Lemon Verbena, Jasmine, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Woody, Oakmoss, and Musk. Bond No. 9's Eau de New York carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one is a properly divisive freshie. Some adore its sparkling, bright neroli and petitgrain, hailing it as an amped-up, long-lasting summer dream. Others find it sharp, synthetic, or reminiscent of cleaning products. You'll either love its potent zing or be desperate to scrub it off.

Its potent projection and strong citrus-green accords push it out of formal and some office settings, as many found it a bit too loud. However, its fresh, invigorating nature makes it perfect for casual wear, especially in warmer weather, where its longevity shines.

About

Eau de New York bursts open with a vibrant, almost effervescent shock of citrus, dominated by sharp grapefruit and bergamot, with petitgrain adding a green, slightly bitter edge. Beneath this initial sparkle, a fresh garden emerges, where lemon verbena and delicate white florals like jasmine and lily intertwine with herbaceous basil. As it settles, a clean, earthy foundation of vetiver, oakmoss, and a subtle musk provides a sophisticated warmth, preventing it from floating away entirely.
