Bond No. 9 New York Musk is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. New York Musk opens with Grapefruit Blossom and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Osmanthus, Lily, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. It lasts about 4 to 6 hours on skin, fills a room and is best in autumn and winter. Bond No. 9's New York Musk carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

New York Musk is a divisive masterpiece of musk and wood, striking some as a sophisticated, alluring skin scent, while others recoil from its animalic nature. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for those who dare to venture into bold musky territory.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the pyramid as published, not a timing claim. Each note's timing follows its listed tier, where it usually sits across many published pyramids (from ScentPrism) and its vapour pressure. A note comes through as the notes usually listed before it fade, judged from how other pyramids order the same pair. The thickness of a ribbon shows the note's share of what is left on the skin, which tracks how strongly it smells, because odour thresholds rise with vapour pressure. The shares come from how prominent wearers vote each note. It is a simple model, not a measurement.

About

Opens with an intriguing burst of sharp blackcurrant and delicate grapefruit blossom, quickly settling into a complex heart of powdery osmanthus, fresh lily, and a hint of warm nutmeg. The dry-down is dominated by a rich, earthy blend of vetiver, sandalwood, and patchouli, underpinned by a dominant, sometimes challenging, animalic musk. It's woody, floral, and unmistakably musky.
