The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Broadway Nite by Bond No 9 was launched in 2003 and was crafted by the renowned perfumer Maurice Roucel. This Floral fragrance for women captures the vibrant essence of a New York night, with an aldehydic opening that hints at the city's sophistication and charm. The composition is built around powdery notes, rich vanilla, and subtle violets, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The heart blooms with rose and iris, adding depth and complexity to the fragrance, while the base offers a comforting embrace of floral and vanillic warmth.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a warm embrace that lasts throughout the evening. The powdery and aldehydic notes are most prominent in the first hour, so layering lightly can help maintain the balance between sophistication and warmth.
