Perfumes are all about dreams and the power of scent to bring them to life. At Bond No. 9, the New York-centric perfumery, our team has long dreamed of a neighborhood where everyone from executives, careerists, bon vivants, shopkeepers, taxi drivers, and even pizza delivery guys wore fragrance.
By 2013, for our 10th anniversary, we made that dream tangible with Perfumista Avenue, a parfum that celebrates the essence of New York. This imaginary thoroughfare embodies the elegance of the Upper East Side, the cultural sophistication of the Upper West, the high-voltage energy of Midtown, the bohemian spirit of Downtown, and the dynamic verve of Brooklyn and the outer boroughs.
Formulated for women who are stunning, bold, fearless, and daring, Perfumista Avenue blends orientalist, leather-tinged notes with a breathtakingly fresh rose. The scent opens with ultra-feminine rose layered with lush plum, followed by seductive animalic notes of honey, musk, musk-like amber, and earthy patchouli. The result is intoxicating, vibrant, and unforgettable, a true ode to the confident New York state of mind.
