Madison Avenue Bond No 9 for women

"At Bond No. 9, we’re not just perfumers—we’re innovators. We introduced the world’s first city-centric, New York-centric fragrance collection. We created the first civic-minded eau de parfum (our beloved, best-selling Scent of Peace). For spring 2016, when we’ll all need a fresh new wardrobe, we’re debuting the first-ever shopping scent." The scent itself is a fresh chypre, that citrusy-woody-mossy fragrance breed that’s long been favored by fashionistas, and which, like all chypres, has its own uniquely haunting couture signature. Its sparkling fruit top notes—crisp apple, orange-y bergamot, tangy, raisin-like blackberry—will automatically raise your energy level. Then come the heart notes: a bouquet of roses as rich as silk charmeuse; jasmine with the shimmer of shantung; and magnolia as smooth as satin. And last but hardly least, the base notes, with enough long-lasting sillage to get you through to late afternoon: earthy patchouli; that creamy-nutty-sugary pastry confection, praline; and ambroxan—contemporary ambergris that’s regarded as a prism through which a perfume’s other facets can shine.

Celebrate NYC’s annual spring spectacle of blooms when flowers take center stage. New York Flowers honors not just the democracy of the city’s “public” botanicals but also celebrates the spirit of joy, renewal, and the natural wonders that each spring brings to our town. A celebratory scent that opens with sparkling notes, almost like popping the cork off of a bottle of champagne. Notes: Anjou Pear, Clementine, Kir Royale Accord, Rose de Grasse, Jasmine, Oriental, Iris New York Flowers arrives as 100ml Eau de Parfum.
