Bustling and purposeful by day, New York reveals its most seductive side after dark. As night falls, the city becomes a study in contrast and confidence, where gourmet restaurants, unspeakably elegant clubs, world-class theatre, and intimate late-night tête-à-têtes define the rhythm of Manhattan evenings.
Manhattan Body Silk captures this nocturnal allure in a luxuriously lightweight formula that leaves skin softly scented and irresistibly smooth. Inspired by the deep midnight blue skies above the city, this Body Silk reflects the glow of the billion-kilowatt skyline below. That unmistakable blue, coveted by cities around the world, is mirrored in a fragrance experience inspired highlighting Bond No. 9's Manhattan at its most sensual.
Manhattan refers to the slender centerpiece island set between a vast continent on one side and a boundless ocean on the other. When New York is spoken of, Manhattan is often what is meant.
The name traces back to Mannahatta, “island of many hills,” given by its indigenous inhabitants, members of the Algonquin Lenape Indian tribe. When Dutch and English sailors arrived in 1609, they encountered a landscape rich in forests, wildlife, and natural beauty, all within 16 navigable miles.
This Body Silk reflects that original harmony between nature and refinement, blending fragrance and skincare into a sensorial ritual that feels both indulgent and effortless.
A diverse wave of settlers once transformed Mannahatta into a free-spirited trading mecca, laying the foundation for what would become the world’s most influential city. Today, Manhattan remains a symbol of confidence, individuality, and modern elegance.
Manhattan Body Silk is designed to be worn alone for a soft, intimate fragrance impression or layered with the Manhattan Eau de Parfum to enhance longevity and depth. The result is skin that feels silky, luminous, and subtly perfumed with the essence of New York after dark.
