The story behind the bottle.
Hudson Yards by Bond No 9 was launched in 2014, capturing the essence of one of New York's most dynamic neighborhoods. Created by perfumer Aurélien Guichard, this fragrance opens with a vibrant blend of lily-of-the-valley and freesia, punctuated by pink pepper for an invigorating freshness. The heart is dominated by peony and Bulgarian rose, which are complemented by the subtle nuances of orange blossom and iris. The base notes settle into a musky and powdery finish that grounds the composition with a warm, comforting presence.
Apply two sprays for a balanced presence throughout the day. The fragrance blooms within an hour, so it's best to let it settle before heading out. Avoid heavy layering as the top notes are delicate and can quickly dissipate.
