Fragrance Notes
Top: Grapefruit, Cardamom
Heart: Cypress Wood, Geranium Leaves, Juniper Berries
Base: Cedarwood, Leather, Guaiac Wood
Brooklyn opens with grapefruit and cardamom for a bright citrus-spice contrast before cypress, geranium leaves, and juniper berries make the heart greener and more aromatic. Cedarwood and guaiac wood give the drydown a dry woody framework while leather adds a darker, smoother edge. The freshness remains visible through the wear, but the fragrance gradually becomes more grounded and textured as the woods take over.
Bond No. 9 describes Brooklyn as a long-lasting woody-spicy scent inspired by the borough’s energetic, constantly reinventing character.

Summary
Summary
Bond No. 9 Brooklyn is a fresh woody-spicy Eau de Parfum that moves from grapefruit and cardamom into green aromatics, dry woods, and leather. Cypress, geranium leaves, and juniper berries give the heart a crisp evergreen character while cedarwood and guaiac wood make the drydown progressively drier. Leather adds depth without making the fragrance especially heavy or smoky. It suits shoppers who like bright aromatic openings but want more structure than a simple citrus freshie. The overall effect is energetic, urban, woody, and clean-edged.
