Bryant Park
This is the most serene scent from the entire Bond #9 lineup. It's power is not as bold as Chinatown or Westside. It is more quiet and subtle.
The rose note is like a whisper in comparison to the bold rose of Westside. It is refreshing and quite pretty. The other notes are patchouli(tame and not overpowering), pink pepper, lily of the valley, rhubarb, raspberry and amber.
I think this will be my favorite Bond after Chinatown.
No offense to Westside or Fire Island.
Bryant Park will premiere at Olympus Fashion Week and be officially launched on March 1st 2007.
It will be available at all four Bond No. 9 stores in New York, countrywide at selected branches of Saks Fifth Avenue and internationally at Harvey Nichols, UK, Paris Gallery, U.A.E, and in Lane Crawford, Hong Kong.
Besides being sold in its 3.4 oz. artist-designed superstar bottle and box presentation ($185), 1.7oz travel size ($125) and by the ounce ($45), it will also be offered in 2-ounce basic spray flacons with gilt honeycomb cap ($40-$150) and in vintage/art bottles, featured in a wide variety of designs ($60 - $200).

That is seriously the most insanely gorgeous bottle. I love how Etro and Pucci inspired it is. I'm not sure if the scent is "me", but I'm DEFINITELY willing to find out!
Thanks so much for the review!!! I have been wanting information on this one and you have helped so much.
I need to try this! I'm absolutely obsessed with Chinatown right now though. I don't know if this could bump Chinatown out of the #1 spot on my list.
Mmmmm, sounds lovely! I can't wait to try it...
Saw this on InStyle this morning and thought you'd be interested =D

I am really looking forward to trying this one. It sounds so different from what I expected just from reading the notes. Sounds wonderful!
Griff: Not Nuits.
Nuits is holy grail status on you.
However...you will like this one. It is light and whispery.
Jennifer: I have a crush on that bottle.
It was inspired by Beauty Addict's shoes. True story.
She plans to blog about it soon.
Your welcome Anon!
It is lovely and worth sniffing.
Jen: I still have Chinatown as my #1. It is too unique and special to be knocked down. However...this is my #2.
Erika: Let us know what you think when you try it!
Thanks Jane! Great deal!
Tussah: I am stalling on using up my sample vial so you can get a whiff. It needs to stop snowing so we can get up there.

Interesting... I like some of the Bond no.9 fragrances, but I haven't purchased any yet. I wanted to wait until they made a wonderful fragrance named after one of my favorite places in Manhatten - and now they did! I really hope I'll love this one! Being a librarian, I should definitely own a fragrance named after the park where the beautiful NYC Library is located, and in the neighbourhood of my favorite NYC hotel - The Library Hotel :)
I'm a geek, I know :)
