Bond No. 9 My New York is a unisex scent that builds ginger, pink pepper and rose into a sweet, woody, resinous whole.
Skunky's take: Sleeps by day, goes out at night; very skunk of it.

What does My New York smell like?
Both its longevity and its sillage are rated strong, and most voters score each of them high. It reads as unisex, and with no season or occasion votes it isn't tied to any particular use. The number of votes is small, so this picture is only a rough guide.
Ginger, pink pepper and elemi resin open it with a spicy lift. In the heart, papyrus, rose and rose absolute bring the floral side, softened by what surrounds it. Patchouli, sandalwood and cashmeran settle the scent onto a sweet, woody, earthy base.
