New York Musk
New York Musk by Bond No. 9 is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. The house lists its notes as grapefruit, blackcurrant, osmanthus, lily, nutmeg, musk, patchouli, sandalwood and vetiver, 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.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Osmanthus Apricot-and-leather floral. Unusual, warm and very wearable.
- Lily A big, creamy, slightly spicy white flower. The kind that fills a room.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
