Liberty Island

Bond No. 9 Liberty Island is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Liberty Island opens with Blackcurrant, Bergamot, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Marshmallow and Musk. Bond No. 9's Liberty Island carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

A truly divisive Bond No. 9 creation, Liberty Island is a fizzy citrus blast with a sometimes-there marshmallow sweetness. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent with patchy performance, leaving many wondering if it's worth the niche price tag.

Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, clean nature makes it suitable for casual and sport settings, with some finding it office-friendly due to its moderate sillage. However, its often-reported short longevity and inconsistent marshmallow note prevent it from being a strong contender for formal or intimate date nights.

About

Liberty Island opens with a vibrant, almost effervescent burst of mandarin and bergamot, underscored by the tart juiciness of blackcurrant. As the initial citrus sparkle settles, a clean white floral heart of jasmine and orange blossom emerges, lending a soft, almost shampoo-like freshness. The promised marshmallow base struggles to make a consistent appearance, often blending subtly with a clean musk, resulting in a light, fresh dry-down with hints of powdery sweetness.
