OUAI North Bondi is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. North Bondi opens with Apple Blossom, Bergamot, Lemon, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. OUAI's North Bondi carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This polarizing scent has folks divided: some call it the ultimate 'clean girl' fragrance, evoking fresh hair and sparkling citrus, while others find it cheap, screechy, and riddled with an unpleasant 'pencil shaving' or 'hairspray' note. A proper love-it-or-hate-it affair.

Its fresh and clean profile makes it ideal for casual wear, often described as a 'post-shower' scent. While some find it too sharp for office environments, its inoffensive nature generally allows for a decent office rating, though its sillage can be 'loud' initially. It's too light and casual for formal events.

About

North Bondi kicks off with a zesty splash of Italian lemon and bergamot, brightened by sweet apple blossom and juicy raspberry. The heart unfurls into a delicate floral bouquet of airy rose, powdery violet, and heady jasmine. It all settles into a soft, musky base underscored by creamy sandalwood and a touch of earthy patchouli, creating a scent that aims for sparkling freshness but can sometimes lean into a sharp, almost synthetic cleanliness.
