Description
The scent, a seductive green floral that’s simultaneously cool and warm, is housed in the slim Bond No. 9 superstar flacon, this time displaying Warhol’s flowers as its surface design.
While most floral fragrances just hint at cool, and vice versa, this one is an ambi-sexual, daringly balanced mix of sweet and cool.
Sometimes the gentle scent of lily of the valley seems about to prevail, looped together with blue freesia, golden amber, and animal musk to enhance its sensuality.
At other times, crunchy green-stem notes and white birch wood are poised to turn this scent into one of pure, clean energy. But then the sweetness and the coolness merge, and stay merged.
And for the serious collector who desires complete Warhol series (Is there any other way to collect?): We present a Portfolio of ten different bottles. They are meant to be viewed as one, as Warhol intended for his Flowers.
Available in 50 and 100ml bottles. The perfume was created by Stephen Nilsen.

This one of my favorite perfume, when i mix it with another perfume it makes the smile nicer. Everybody asks me what i wear it is amazing. Can’t leave my collection without it and is long lasting. Very few peopke knows about it and doesn’t know that is truly very unique one. Maybe someone will say is blends with my skin yes, but who ever tried were anaxed. It is a must one for me, especially when mixing with ( i will kerp my secret), becomes more amazing.

I really like this one. Mainly because I have yet to find any other perfume that it reminds me of. Many don’t care for this fragrance but it really works for my chemistry. It’s a bit pricey but the longevity is really good.

Agree: shampoo abounds here and AW US does wear it well!
Agree: fresh with a hint of sweetness. Believe freesia might be the note that is makes some ill. Wood? What wood? A bit more would have helped its cause. Musk and amber keep it moving to dry down.
Agree: sillage strong and longevity solid!
Agree: price is a deterrent!
So what did we learn kids? Not the best Bond, (for me: Chinatown/ Nuits de Noho) and certainly not the worst Bond (Little Italy/ and there might be others!). There is a better Bond out there to shower (no pun intended, lol) your love (cash) on, just maybe not this one. But what do I know!
Yellow light: proceed with caution.

Watery sweet white florals, honeydew, roses. Harsh and cleanser-like at times yet intruiging. The birch keeps an otherwise floral scent interesting.
Brash.
Silage 9/10. Apply gently.

Very clean and pleasant floral, nothing too unique and in my opinion – not worth so much $$$ as I think you can find this kind of scent and quality in less expensive forms as well.
It opens with cold L-O-V and is being followed by sweet and a bit “fruity” freesia. I don’t get any woods or actually green notes, just those shy flowers with loads of musk. As I said before – it feels very clean and soapy. Would be a perfect office fragrance as it’s really not offensive.

Cool and sweet at the same time. There is nothing shy about this fragrance. There is certain similarity to Washington Square, but Washington Square is crisper and Union Square is more full-bodied. I am also comfortable with the dry down. The whole thing is so squeaky clean.

I agree that this is a really nice blend of floral green that a guy could enjoy. It’s not overly floral, not over sweet, and not exactly grassy. There is something squeaky clean and fresh about it too with a really nice woody musky undertone.

this is a nice floral green, i usually don’t like floral greens but this is just good enough for me,if it was cheaper i’d defenitly bought it for myself during spring

I didn’t have high hopes for this one, and put off trying it for a while. When I finally got around to it, I was pleasantly surprised by the dry green stem and tulip notes. I found myself coming back to it, and enjoying the soft dry layers beneath the florals. Perhaps it’s the note that they are calling freesia, but this scent reminds me of rhubarb much more than High Line.
The greatest surprise is that it stands up well to the NYC heat. So many scents can be sickening when the mercury hits 90, but this remains a delicate breeze of flowers and green. I’ve grown to love it with time.

So many shampoo/conditioner frags, and my hair is already so clean!!! Bond no 9 ANDY WARHOL UNION SQUARE fits squarely into this relatively new (twenty-first-century?) category and for that reason makes a perfect workplace scent, particularly for those attempting to evade the perfume police. The worst that anyone wearing this fragrance–which does not build-up and has a short lifespan and low sillage anyway–could be accused of is having recently showered.
For some reason, I like these fragrances. But I also love to bathe. This one has just a touch of woodiness in the drydown, but the squeaky clean musk dusted with light sterilized florals really dominates from start to finish–a rather short course, I hasten to add. Given the speed with which I drained my sample vial, I’d say that this is closer to cologne than edp.

I have a sample that I have tried at least 3 times. It smells fresh and just a little sweet, but it does not develop and it fades away fast. Too bad. It’s kind of sad when kankura gets sick when she smells it but it LASTS! Then sednon and brey love it.
