NY Secret Gardens
NY Secret Gardens by Bond No. 9 is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. The house lists its notes as pear, clementine, blackcurrant, ivy, rose, tuberose, jasmine, amber, iris 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.
- Clementine Small, sweet and a bit candied. Very easy to wear.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Ivy Cool, damp and shaded. Green without being sweet.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
