The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2023 to honor the 20th anniversary of Bond No 9, New York Forever Limited Edition is an Oriental gourmand that encapsulates the city's enduring charm. Perfumer Domitille Michalon Bertier crafts a composition where fresh cinnamon and Indonesian patchouli create a vibrant top layer, while spicy-sweet vanilla and honeyed oriental notes form the heart. The base of musky labdanum, earthy moss, and amber leaves a lasting trace that evokes nostalgia for New York's lasting charm.
This fragrance has moderate longevity and sillage, so apply it to pulse points for optimal warmth. The top notes fade within an hour, but the base notes linger throughout the day, making it ideal for evening wear.
