The story behind the bottle.
Bond Number One by Bond No 9, launched in 2024 and crafted by Vincent Schaller, is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that embodies the spirit of New York through its innovative composition. The scent opens with bright citrus notes from bergamot, mingling seamlessly with the soft floralcy of ylang-ylang and jasmine. As it settles, the warmth of vanilla and musk envelops the wearer, creating an intimate cocoon of comfort. Tonka bean adds a sweet, powdery depth that contrasts beautifully against the clean crispness of cashmere wood and patchouli.
Apply Bond Number One with two sprays for optimal wear. The citrus top notes are fleeting but vibrant, while the vanilla and musky base develops gradually over time. Best worn during cooler evenings when its warmth feels most comforting.
