About This Perfume
Fire Island by Bond No 9 is a Oriental fragrance for women and men. Fire Island was launched in 2006. The nose behind this fragrance is Michel Almairac. The fragrance features Tuberose, Neroli, White Musk, Patchouli and Cardamom. The warm, golden-yellow colored bottle carries a sun in its middle, indicating that this is a fragrance dedicated to beach, laying the clothes aside and giving up to the sun rays. Near New York, about 90 km away from the center of the city, there is the Fire Island where the New Yorkers spend their weekends enjoying beaches and vacation. Dedicated to the sun, this perfume warms us with sweet spicy cardamom and ozone. The heart is made of fresh sweet neroli and white musk, and the base is formed of musk, leather, honey, sensual tuberose and patchouli. Michael Almairac is the creator of this oriental unisex perfume. It has been on the market since 2006 and it is available in 50 and 100 ml bottles.
