The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

New Orleans by Bond No 9 was launched in 2009 and is a fragrance that captures the essence of the city's vibrant energy. Created by perfumer Laurice Rahmé, it opens with bright citrus and green notes like bergamot and violet leaf, which give way to a heart of white florals such as tuberose and lily-of-the-valley. The base notes are warm and spicy, featuring cinnamon, patchouli, amber, and sandalwood, creating an inviting and complex scent that is both fresh and comforting. New Orleans by Bond No 9 is a unisex fragrance that embodies the city's rich history and lively atmosphere.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to pulse points for a balanced experience. The fragrance's top notes are fleeting, so give it time to settle into its heart and base notes before heading out. This composition is best suited for daytime wear when the warmth of cinnamon and sandalwood can be fully appreciated without overpowering.
