About This Perfume
Bond No. 9 So New York comes across as Warm espresso with cocoa dust and plum. It opens with mirabelle plum, bergamot and osmanthus, moves into espresso, milk and patchouli and settles on cocoa powder, tonka bean and precious woods. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is easy to wear day or night. A good pick for date nights. Released in 2003.
Wearers report that it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for date nights.
- Sample first if: gourmand is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike sweet fragrances.
Around $360.

Scent notes for the picks
Look for sweet berry and lychee with soft vanilla in Greenwich Village (Eau de Parfum, 2019), starting with blackcurrant and lychee before musk, oakmoss and vanilla take over. Lafayette Street (Eau de Parfum, 2018) lands as fresh bergamot breeze with apple sweetness and cedar, opening on bergamot and coriander and drying down to ambergris, cedarwood and tonka bean. Count on sweet coffee and caramel with creamy florals from New York Nights (2017); gardenia and jasmine up top and caramel and coffee underneath.
If these picks suit you, floral perfumes and gourmand perfumes are good places to keep looking, and the brands page lists every house.
