Bond No. 9 New York Sandalwood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. New York Sandalwood opens with Carrot Seeds, Iris, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Papyrus, Sandalwood, and Fig, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Oakmoss. Bond No. 9's New York Sandalwood carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive yet captivating, New York Sandalwood is a bold, malty take on sandalwood that demands patience. The opening can be abrasive, but the reward is a uniquely woody, earthy drydown. Definitely not for everyone, but those who appreciate its quirks will find a true gem.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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

The opening blasts off with an intriguing mix of earthy carrot seeds and spicy cardamom, underpinned by the distinctive powdery nuance of iris. This initial intensity mellows into a heart where rich, dry sandalwood takes centre stage, beautifully complemented by the green, slightly sweet lift of fig and the papery texture of papyrus. The journey concludes with a deep, comforting base of warm amber, soft musk, and the classic damp earthiness of oakmoss, creating a lasting, sophisticated trail.
