The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2009 by Bond No 9, Andy Warhol Success is a Job in New York captures the essence of New York's energy and ambition. This Oriental Spicy fragrance opens with the warmth of cardamom, coriander, and nutmeg, evoking the bustling streets of Manhattan. The heart notes of mandarin orange, bergamot, plum, tuberose, jasmine, and iris create a lush floral-fruit bouquet that feels both vibrant and sophisticated. The base notes of vanilla, benzoin, patchouli, and pimento anchor this composition with an earthy sweetness, reminiscent of the city's enduring charm.
Apply this fragrance to your wrists and neck for an immediate burst of warm spice. The heart notes will bloom within half an hour, so give it time to settle before heading out. Best enjoyed during cooler evenings when its spicy warmth can truly shine.
