The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2025 by Memoirs Of A Perfume Collector and crafted by Jean Claude Delville, New York is a fragrance that captures the dynamic spirit of one of the world's most vibrant cities. It opens with a fresh spicy blend of bergamot and pepper, elemi, and blue sage, evoking the sharp energy and bustling streets of Manhattan. The heart notes of cumin, sequoia, and musk bring a warm and earthy depth, reminiscent of the city’s diverse neighborhoods and their distinctive atmospheres. The base notes of incense, Indian oud, lichen, vetiver, cedarwood, labdanum, patchouli, amber, and sandalwood create an intriguing contrast between the smoky richness of urban landscapes and the serene calm of hidden green spaces.
Apply this fragrance in light layers to allow each note to unfold naturally. The fresh spicy opening is fleeting, so a second application after an hour will ensure you catch all nuances as it transitions into its rich base notes.
