I completely agree with you! Scent of Peace and Bleecker Street get great compliments, but Fragrantica and it’s cronies don’t give them enough credit. Just because we like something or think it’s synthetic, doesn’t mean the ladies like it or hate it. Nice review!
Mate, I've only just recently found you on youtube, about a week ago. I've got to say, I can't stop watching your videos. Such class, great knowledge and a fantastic delivery. You've got a fan in Australia. Keep up the great work.
I jumped on Scent of Peace after watching a few reviews. As soon as I opened the box, I knew there was something special about this house. I hope to add to the collection very soon.
Thanks to you Kevin I recently enter the Bond World. Started with Manhattan, Dubai Amber, Signature, and NY oud. Got candies(bon bon) for Chez Bond, NY Amber, Bleecker, Perfumista Ave, Chinatown, eau de Ny and Riverside. Also got my nose on and liked Coney Island, Soho, Scent of Peace M, and NY nights
I love Bond No. 9 fragrances... Compliment monsters, performance beasts, amazing smelling... Can go for hours! I wore BN9 Perfumista Avenue... Compliment beast, I have a sample, absolutely getting me a bottle soon. Thank you Mr. Samuels for raising my interest on such an amazing house.
Great Video my brother..and make sure to check out Tiff Benson she is pretty good as well. and Yes I wear colonge because women enjoy a great smelling man..
Great vid. I actually like a lotta Bond scents, but I don't own any. Another house that has a love/hate thing going on is Amouage. It's probably my favorite niche house... they always produce the most original, unorthodox and unique fragrances which might not suit everyone's tastes... which is fine by me.
I believe that you was born in a suit or God just blessed you with a little extra to wear them well. You can make a Preacher jealous. as always be blessed
I would give ANYTHING Kevin- just about anything to grab a bottle of the 2 highly coveted Bond No.9 fragrances [Andy Warhol Sunglasses& Bond No. 9 Warhol Montauk YELLOW BOX AND BOTTLE]………👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻..... My bucket list to own and use before I pass away.....
Kevin, great video, Bond No. 9 is one of the houses that i havent tried and think its because they have so nany fragrances that its hard to remember which is which but this video has given me some great ideas. I really like that suit! Is it Tom Ford?
I've tried a few from Bond but Harrods Oud Patchouli really stands out for me, and is one of my favourite fragrances. I've nearly used up my small decant though :( I've found them pretty difficult to sample here in the UK...
OMG YOU ARE THE FIRST MALE PERFUME REVIEWER THAT I WILL SUBSCRIBE ONLY BECAUSE YOU WEAR #BONDNO9 MY FAVORITE HOUSE! WHAT DO YOU THINK OF PERFUMISTA AVE? THINKING OF GETTING THAT NEXT.
I've owned it since it's release date and love it. It's a very bold brash rose that plays well year round, but especially in cooler (less than 70) locations. Enjoy!
I were NY Patchouli more in the warmer months because of the bright, citrusy almost grapefruit notes. I bought it, Sag, and Shelter tonight. Summer time bliss.
Kevin creed was my favorite House, but now it's Bond no9 and House of Oud. If you haven't tried House of Oud Kevin give it a try. Golden powder is my favorite.
Kevin, my man, great video, very useful as always. You seem to be into jazz, what´s the intro song? i know its a classic but can´t remember its name. Greetings from Argentina.
I dig your Bond perspective! I am curious...would you say that Manhattan’s performance is average for the group/house? 6-7 hours? Very good projection? Thank you for the time that you put into these videos. Keep it up!
Another great video!! Bleeker is my favorite... when I want to really make a statement I layer that with creed aventus..walstreet sits in my collection and I don't reach for it much.. bond patchouli is my least favorite I own.. I need something to layer it with Kevin lol..
Wall Street with Chez Bond or Signature. NYP with Chinatown or Andy to add sweetness. Or Jo Malone Red Rose to brighern up the rose water (another secret weapon I use this a lot) or Wild Bluebell for softness. Velvet Rose & Oud body oil is my favorite mix with NYP
NYP is a tricky one. Depends on what you are going for I settle most things down with Signature, brighten things up with Little Italy and blend with Chez Bond.
Out of all the bonds I have. My favorite is easily signature. I’m about to another a bottle. Sadly I can’t find a bottle of my other fave riverside dr.
awesome review i didnt know bond .9 is really strong niche fragrance wow , im interested to know if which one is the best gourmand scent Mr Kevin ? , new harlem or ilove new york for all ? i live in manila Philippines and is so hot here , which of them are good to use? and how about the best scent in bond .9 for a hot weather? , and being honest i enjoyed a lot of your reviews keep it up :D , i would be thankfull if you reply :) .
Check Chez Bond as it rivals Green Irish Tweed and I prefer the tea drydown. New Harrlem is great. New York Oud is my favorite, but not for blind buying. Bleecker Street is great, but don't pay inflated prices.
Your right about woman smelling different I love roja Dove fragrances I like creation e and creation r goodnight kiss but the middle east ones woman love like united Arab Emirates and sultanate of Oman Kuwait qatar also my most complimented fragrance is oud satin mood and I don't care for that to much no more so I would think a fragrance is incredible but it might not appeal to the opposite sex like that I think the best fragrance ever made is Diaghilev but I didn't get much compliments from women
On the song "Good Drank" with 2 Chainz, Quavo, and Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz second line of his verse "...Bond no. 9 is my favorite scent". Just FYI, lol, I don't think you really care about hiphop.
I have worn and sniffed many Bonds. As a woman, I do not like the house. I haven't heard anything about them other than all the men who love them but I don't. I thought I was the only one.
Gina Tabasso understandable nothing is ever 100% however I have to still say I've heard the above hundreds and hundreds of times. By the way which ones have you tried and what other fragrances do you like?
Nice to meet you! I have worn No. 9 and Bleecker Street. I sniffed about 20 in Harrod's. I am a fragrance junkie with thousands of fragrances. My favorite houses are Caron, Guerlain, Boadicea, Tauer, Annick Goutal and Serge Lutens. I love spice, leather, oud, smoke, incense and florals. I have many Middle Eastern fragrances from Lattafa and Rasasi, as well.
Dubai is more for you. Bond tends to be paradoical when making fragrance hence New York Oud red, oud, then a bright red plum. Dubai leands heavier, darker, and more rich.
Man you are speaking absolute facts. Manhattan was my first bond I like it for its uniqueness. My fiancé LOVES IT. When we have date nights that’s requested hands down over anything else don’t know why but if that’s what she likes im the one to give it to her. And I also have to add I blind bought New York oud due to seeing your vids and I’m not disappointed at all. I freakin love it. Great content keep doing what you do
I just bought that bond no 9 eau de ny for my wife based on the bottle presentation. I smelled it and hijacked that shit. It's unisex, but when I smelled it I'm like this is for a man clearly.
I can't stop watching this video... You show some fine jewels of perfumery, especially my 3 babies (Shelter, NY Oud, and Perfumista). My future BN9 buys are Signature (OH MY GOD!), NY Musk, Manhattan (Fly me to the mooooon!!!!), Wall Street and Bleecker. Buys for my GF... I just want to get her a 1,000 gallon bottle of Chinatown... IT SMELLS SO AMAZING ON HER! Creamy, seductive and very inviting. I do not know why people hate on this amazing house... Let them hate... more bottles remain for us BN9 lovers, right? Have a great night Mr. Samuels! And greetings from Puerto Rico.
