Street-vendor hot dogs? Taxi-cab exhaust? Foldable pepperoni pizza?
No, silly: Gramercy Park. New Haarlem. Wall Street.
Named for the address of its Manhattan headquarters (9 Bond St.), Bond No. 9 is a perfume brand that celebrates the neighborhoods of New York City.
Bond No. 9 launched with 18 scents honoring 18 neighborhoods in uptown, midtown and downtown Manhattan, including Park Avenue, Central Park, Broadway Nite and Chelsea Flowers.
While those first 18 scents were sold in clear bottles, subsequent bottles have featured various colored designs, including cherry blossoms on a fuchsia background for Chinatown; a sleek black-and-gold design for Wall Street, a scent for men; and an Andy Warhol design for Union Square.
The bottles themselves have become collectors’ items. Bond No. 9 has responded to the passion for collecting its bottles by issuing limited editions of some scents in special bottles, including a 200-bottle limited-edition Swarovski-crystal-studded version of its Bleecker St. scent. Next month, Bond No. 9 will issue its 35th scent, a spicy eau de perfume called Brooklyn.
by the way workforce 1 is they help u find a job
gross. what a sad idea. not enough you have to contend with the stench when you live here, you can now pay big bucks to get it all over your body. oh well. anything for a dollar.
The Special Edition for 2009 is the scent collection of Hunts Point Meat Market, Fulton Fish Marker along with Fresh Kills Landfill.

Great idea!! Hopefully they can sell off the entire Brooklyn smell to some country in the middle east, where it wouldn’t even be noticed
They are actually quite sucessful and their sales are doing well considering the economy. They have many scents under consideration. One is called “the Rebbe’s Tisch” and we were joking as to whether they would try to imitate the scent of warm chalah and chulent or the secnt of several hunderd sweaty chasidim crowded around the table and sitting in the grandstands on a hot humid summer shabbos evening.
these perfumes dont REALLY smell like the neighborhoods they are named after, dont worry-its just a marketing ploy! I bought one of their perfumes (called “union square”) and it smells just like any other perfume!!
