Gold Coast

by Michel Almairac

Bond No. 9 Gold Coast is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Michel Almairac. Gold Coast opens with Litchi, Red Apple, and Apricot, settles into a heart of Rose and Watermelon, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Vanilla. Bond No. 9's Gold Coast carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one is a divisive brew. For some, it's a classy, fruity-aquatic dream; for others, a harsh, synthetic nightmare. Definitely sample before you drop serious cash, its resemblance to other popular fragrances makes the price point a sticking one.

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual wear and certain office environments, particularly given its generally moderate to low projection. However, the price point and the potential for a synthetic edge mentioned by some reviewers might make it less ideal for formal settings where understated elegance is preferred.

About

Gold Coast opens with a zesty, juicy burst of litchi, red apple, and apricot, quickly introducing a fresh, watery essence. The heart blossoms with a clean rose and crisp watermelon, settling into a soft, musky cedar and a whisper of vanilla. It's designed to be a bright, effervescent concoction, but some find its aquatic and ozonic facets lean towards the synthetic, bordering on cleaning solution.
