What does Bond No. 9 New York Flowers smell like?
Bond No. 9 New York Flowers opens with Mandarin; a heart of Tulip and Tuberose; drying down to Sandalwood, Amber and Iris, from notes Bond No. 9 (official) publishes. Those notes read as fruity, floral, powdery, amber, woody, the coarse families Bond No. 9 (official) cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.
What's the closest accessible alternative to New York Flowers?
We rank the "smells-like" alternatives to New York Flowers by how closely their cited accords match the original, cheapest first. A dupe is meant to evoke New York Flowers, not match its formula, and we say as much. If we can't verify a genuine match yet, we leave it off.
Is New York Flowers for men or women?
Bond No. 9 New York Flowers is listed as a women's fragrance by the retailer. That's a marketing label, not a rule: fragrance has no gender, and plenty of "women's" scents are worn by anyone. We show how it's sold and leave the wearing to you.

We rank them by how many of New York Flowers's cited notes they actually share, weighting rarer notes heavier than ubiquitous ones. Each is its own fragrance with real, sourced notes, not a copy of New York Flowers, and has its own page.

We list the genuine original first, always. Fragrance Hunter earns affiliate commissions on outbound links across the site, on both original bottles and accessible alternatives, at no cost to you. Because we earn the same either way, what pays us never sets the order we rank things in; the ranking answers to the cited accords, not a sponsor (how we pick, and how we earn). Accessible alternatives are imitations of a named original; related fragrances are independent houses' own creations that stand as originals in their own right. We label which is which, and never present an imitation as the original. Prices are indicative, set by the retailer, and change. Accords are coarse scent families cited from brand or retailer sources; an alternative evokes the profile, it is not the same formula.
