The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Andy Warhol Union Square by Bond No 9 was launched in 2008 and is a Floral Green fragrance for women crafted by perfumer Stephen Nilsen. The composition opens with green grass and lily-of-the-valley, creating an immediate sense of freshness and vibrancy. This bright and airy opening gives way to the soft florals of freesia and birch, bringing warmth and depth. The base notes of musk and amber add a smoky and powdery finish that grounds the fragrance, making it feel both light and substantial.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points. The green and fresh top notes are bright but fleeting, so let the fragrance build with the warm floral heart and musky base for a lasting impression.
