Brooklyn
Brooklyn by Bond No. 9 is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. The house lists its notes as grapefruit, cardamom, cypress, geranium, juniper berry, cedarwood, leather and guaiac wood, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
