Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Lafayette Street opens with Floral Notes, Bergamot, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Vanilla, Ambroxan, and Apple, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Tonka Bean, and Ambergris. Bond No. 9's Lafayette Street carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street is a divisive one, hyped by many as a mass-appealing, versatile masterpiece, but dismissed by others as overpriced and utterly generic. It's safe, sure, but whether it smells 'luxurious' or like cheap wet wipes depends entirely on your nose and your budget.

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.

About

Lafayette Street opens with a zingy burst of bergamot, uplifted by a whisper of floral coriander. This rapidly sweetens into a crisp, juicy apple heart, softened by creamy vanilla and a hint of warm ambroxan. The dry down settles into a woody ambergris base, laced with smooth tonka for a clean, albeit somewhat generic, finish.
