Renewal is in the air, and New York City has always been a hub of progress, innovation, and optimism. Few neighborhoods exemplify this spirit better than NoMad, one of the city’s oldest districts, which has continuously reinvented itself over generations. From periods of decline to revival, NoMad has transformed into a vibrant center of luxury hotels, restaurants, and residences, combining the charm of the Gilded Age with modern sophistication.
As Laurice Rahme, Bond No. 9’s founder, notes, "This fragrance celebrates NoMad's lifestyle and culture, but what it really and truly embodies is the past and present." Bond No. 9 NoMad Eau de Parfum captures this duality, reflecting the neighborhood’s evolution and enduring energy.
At the heart of the fragrance is a strong, sensual, and statement-making oud. Inspired by the nomads of the Orient, the oud is reimagined as what Rahme calls “Americanized Oud,” blending traditional richness with modern gourmand touches. Top notes of creamy pear and fresh black currant add an inviting, fruity warmth, creating a contemporary introduction to this iconic scent.
The floral heart of the fragrance is subtle yet captivating, seamlessly leading into the luxurious base. Amber provides depth and opulence, while sandalwood lends a smooth, sophisticated finish. This combination ensures longevity, giving NoMad Eau de Parfum the same lasting presence as the neighborhood it celebrates.
Bond No. 9 NoMad is ideal for those who appreciate fragrances that are both bold and refined. It is a modern interpretation of oud, infused with the vibrancy and resilience of New York City’s ever-evolving landscape.
