Fragrance is a personal decision, subjective to preference and scent note of choice. Some signature perfumes, encased in their chic glass bottles are owned by everyone (think: the decades-adored Chanel No. 5) . How about something different?
The Post Wanted team has given Bond No. 9 a golden stamp of approval for its luxe, alluring scents that are always housed in the loveliest of bottles. Its new springtime fragrance, Greenpoint, is labeled “a breath of fresh air” from the brand, and it couldn’t be more accurate.
Its fresh spring-y scent is inspired by one of the outer borough’s most spirited destinations. As an edgy maritime neighborhood with a slightly industrial, bohemian vibe, Bond No. 9’s Greenpoint fragrance is a fresh, classic and bold unisex spring scent to wear year-round.
With a bergamot top note, creamy floral center and woodsy flair, Greenpoint is also topped with marine notes to give a nod to this cool coastal community.
Mimicking its namesake, Bond No. 9 Greenpoint is a classic scent with modern twists, much ado to the brilliant collaboration with Mane Master Perfumer Claude Dir.
Bond No. 9 Greenpoint opens with a fresh, juicy pear (talk about refreshing!) and vibrant, citrusy bergamot zest. Also incorporated into the perfume is the unexpected addition of spicy pimento leaf.
Similarly, the heart of the fragrance is a traditional floral with the essence of rose, a creamy magnolia accord and sultry star jasmine. The bottom notes blend elegant, woodsy blonde cedar, earthy tree moss, sea amber and rich, grounding musk.
That said, Greenpoint is a fresh, classic and dynamic unisex spring scent that’s versatile for other seasons as well. It doubles as bedroom decor, too, as it’ll look stunning on your perfume tray. Plus, it’ll offer a pop of color.
The new Bond No. 9 Greenpoint Fragrance is a splurge, but one worth making. Bonus points if you live in Brooklyn, but otherwise, know that it’ll evoke the feel of a neighborhood that’ll welcome spring like no other.
