Madison Square Park Bond No.9 EDP Spray 3.3 oz.

Chinatown is my inaugural Bond No. 9 fragrance, and I am completely obsessed! I went without perfume for years after COVID lockdown and have been searching for something new all this time. I took a chance based on reviews and am so thrilled I dared to do so. My scent has always been in the fresh category. Chinatown is perfect... it's fresh with a unique twist in all the best way. Not sure how exactly to describe. It's definitely fresh and clean but with a level of intoxication I've not experienced before. I just want to bathe in this fragrance all the time... it's this amazing. As for price, well yes.. it's expensive... even at Amazon $. However, if you can swing the $, try it. The fragrance is high quality, so you don't need much. This bottle will last for a long time as it's the large size. The packaging was pristine. Amazon packed it well to protect this expensive purchase. I definitely received a new bottle as it came with the clear film intact and unopened on the outer layer of the perfume box itself. The inside packaging was perfect. Also, I had to pump several times to get the first spritz out so another clue that it was new and unused. Since I haven't been to the store to sniff there, I can't speak to comparing authenticity. This fragrance lasts and smells divine, so if it's a knock off, it's a phenomenal one... ha! I'm really pleased I took a leap of faith and finally pulled the plug on making this purchase. If you're like me and don't have time to go to brick and mortar locations to sniff in person and fresh is your thing, take a chance on Chinatown. I seriously don't think you'll be disappointed. I'm a die hard Bond No. 9 fan for life now!
