DUBAI JADE

Iconic cities are often centuries in the making - except for the few that rise almost overnight. Dubai, the world’s first true 21st-century megalopolis, emerged boldly from the Arabian desert, transforming within just a decade or two into a global powerhouse. Much like New York, Dubai today thrives as a bustling port of call, an international trading hub, and a magnet for tourism, finance, and luxury real estate. Its skyline, a shimmering blend of steel and glass, towers above record-breaking shopping malls, opulent hotels, and destination spas.

And just as Dubai admires the pulse of New York, Bond No. 9 has long crafted scents that reflect both cities’ cosmopolitan energy. The Bond No. 9 Dubai Collection honors the spice, incense, and heritage of the Levant and Greater Middle East while layering in contemporary New York botanicals. Each fragrance arrives in the signature gold-patterned bottle, adorned with interlacing Arabic starbursts and a colored archway—a beckoning doorway into its aromatic world.

While Dubai Emerald explores depth and contrast with saffron, hyssop, aldehydes, and a heart of rose, patchouli, and oud, Dubai Jade shifts into a more vibrant, crystalline register.

Dubai Jade is vivid and high-energy, blending sparkling florals with slow-burning incense and glowing aromatics. It opens with nuanced wood-violet leaves, a bright hit of tart raspberry, and a warm whisper of cumin. This leads into a luminous floral heart—rose, lily, and jasmine—freshened further by the clean, crisp presence of cedarwood.

As it settles, the fragrance deepens into a sumptuous base: resinous amber paired with its botanical counterpart, ambrette; sensual musk; incense-rich oud; and a final touch of smoky, leather-like birch tar. The effect is layered, modern, and evocative—an aromatic “jade glow” that balances brightness and mystery, East and West, nature and luxury.
