Bond No. 9 Wall Street is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2004, created by David Apel. Wall Street opens with Cucumber, settles into a heart of Caraway, Resins, Leather, and Lemon, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, and Ambergris. Bond No. 9's Wall Street carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Wall Street is a divisive aquatic-forward scent that smells of fresh cucumber, sea salt, and citrus. Its unique blend is either a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with many finding the drydown to be unpleasantly 'fishy' or 'wet dog' on skin, but a fresh, crisp, money-like scent on clothes. Don't blind buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual and sport settings, particularly in warm weather. However, the polarizing nature of its drydown means it might not be universally appreciated in formal or office environments, despite strong longevity.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Bitter Orange
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

This opens with a sharp, invigorating burst of citrus and cucumber, quickly joined by an oceanic salty seaweed note that gives it a unique marine character. As it settles, a clean, ozonic freshness emerges, underscored by subtle ambergris and musk. Some detect a slight metallic edge with nuances of pistachio and vetiver, adding a complex depth to its aquatic core. Expect a fresh, green, and highly individual scent journey from start to finish.
