Everytime I wear it (I have a little sample) I feel good. This is definitely one of the best Bond fragrances.

It really acts as a sensual pick me upper. It is a definite arousal to the senses. The coffee in the fragrance keeps me so alert!

Sorry to be late to the party but I just woke up - it's about 7am here in Osaka... Ok - when I say gourmand, I refer to the use of vanilla and coffee, which does reminds one ever so slightly of Starbucks, and therefore, yes - it is foody. But, the inclusion of the lavender and cedar tone it down, and it isn't as sweet as say CSP's Vanille Mokha. The sillage is surprising, as I was expecting something along the lines of Angel, but instead got something a little more subtle. Geeeesh! How many times did I use the word "rich" in that review? I guess it's because you have to be "rich" to afford a bottle! LOL! Hi everyone! Sorry to be late to the party but I just woke up – it's about 7am here in Osaka…

I just got a sample of this and tried it for the first time yesterday. I gave it to Will to wear and by the time I left him at Union Square, where we part each morning, the coffee topnote was fading and I was wondering what the rest of it smelled like. Now you've told me. Thanks for the review! What a coincidence! I just got a sample of this and tried it for the first time yesterday.

It isn´t that easy to test them here because there´s only one perfumery that carries the line & they don´t send samples... Your description sounds very lovely indeed, the layering combinations seem to be great, too. As soon as I get a chance I´ll test it! One question: I hope it isn´t gourmand in the sense of foody?

I am not so mad about the drydown, but it is still oen of my favorite Bond No 9 perfumes. I absolutely adore the beginning of this scent, so rich and dark.
