Greenpoint
Greenpoint by Bond No. 9 is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. The house lists its notes as pear, cardamom, bergamot, pimento, rose, magnolia, jasmine, marine accord, cedarwood, oakmoss, ambergris, vetiver and musk, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Pear Crisp, watery and green-sweet. Clean and modern.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pimento Allspice — clove, cinnamon and nutmeg at once. Hot and rounded.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Magnolia Lemony white floral. Bright and clean rather than heavy.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Marine Accord Generic 'ocean' — salt, air and water. Clean and uncomplicated.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
