The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019, Gold Coast Swarovski Couture Edition by Bond No 9 is a Floral fragrance that celebrates the vibrant and dynamic spirit of New York. Created by perfumer Michel Almairac, this scent opens with litchi, apricot, and red apple, bringing an immediate burst of tropical and fruity freshness. The heart notes of French rose and watermelon add a delicate floral touch, while cedar, vanilla, and musk create a warm and powdery base that grounds the composition in rich comfort.
One generous spray on pulse points is sufficient as this fragrance has a strong opening. The top notes are particularly bright and will fade after about two hours, but the powdery base notes will linger throughout the day, providing lasting warmth.
