Lexington Avenue is a Creme Brulee fragrance… It’s yummy. That being said, I wish it projects better, but it’s not. The opening is very lovely, however, for an edp, this doesn’t last very long, and it projects well only for about 2 hours and then it turns into a skin scent.

This is a beautiful sweet, spicy and aromatic fragrance. I have a thing for star anise why I find it very appealing. The silllage is moderate and the longevity too. But actually I’m more of a flower girl so I think that a full bottle would be much more than I ever could finish.

I’m sitting here wrapped up in sweaters and blankets, cozy as can be, sipping my cardamom chai and wearing Lexington Avenue. The opening notes of Lexington Avenue smell like cardamom chai. Very nice. Soft to moderate sillage. Dries down to a warm spicy sandalwood skin scent.

I think this one is wierd. It has some kind of mentholated note in the beginning.
Smells sort of like a fresh leather bag. It is a tad sweet, a tad spicy, and a tad aromatic.
4 sprays and it is still soft and subtle, which I don’t mind.

It’s like a demeter fragrance it doesn’t last at all but for one minute you get to smell carnival goodies. 200.00 dollars a bottle is too much for this fast fading fragrance but it does smell wonderful

spicy woods and shiny, shiny boots of leather…I get this incredible leather note which is not listed but is there… unisex really. The bottle is okay with me!

This smells so much like Murder Ballad Blues perfume oil by Arcana, which I love so much I want to marry it! MBB is a warm blackberry on the vine scent. Smells like bike rides on hot summer nights. Lexington is close but the price is too much when something even better is a tiny fraction of the cost.

Beautiful perfume!!! Why the bottle is so ugly and doesn’t suit the scent is beyond my comprehension , it was better when it had all the little shoes. Now the black and white is not good as it doesn’t suit the creamy spicy sweet scent !
Lexington Ave is basically a spicier version of Chinatown. In fact they are very similar to my nose. If you have and love Chinatown this would be a save blind buy in my opinion. The same sweetness and the same cardamom yet lexington ave is with a touch of “belle opium” by YSL the one in the purple bottle.
The creme brûlée is phantastic in here and the anis is incredible eatable 😉 this is definitely a gourmand all the way. I also love the almonds.
A little more winter than summer!
As china town is very feminine and men should stay away from it THiS one is definitely the same feel BUT nice on a man as well. It’s very unisex. But a little more on the feminine side as well, in my opinion. And my husband thinks so too.

This is not a review, but as there seems to be confusion, I just wanted to clarify. This is the same perfume as the Andy Warhol Lexington Avenue with the shoes on it. Bond had a contract with the Andy Warhol Foundation but it expired, thus Bond had to remove Andy Warhol’s name and art from all of their bottles, therefore forcing them to change the packaging. This is the same juice as the shoe bottle. All the other Andy Warhol Bond perfumes also had packaging changes with, as far as I know, no change in formulation (I can’t be 100% sure of that- it looks like the notes on Success have changed in Fragrantica- but Bond says the scent is the same!). Andy Warhol (the bottle with his face on it) has been discontinued, but the rest carry on with new designs and no Andy Warhol in the name.

Wasn’t really digging this. It reminded me of some sort of food or an ingredient used in burgers like a cooking oil. It’s quality, and it stays on for a while. But, not my cup of tea. I know people that like it, and I respect that. It’s warm & spicy, a bit gourmand but not all the way gourmand. Try it.

LOVE it! Wow! The only problem on me… it doesn’t seem to have any staying power. I spray it on, deeply inhale this divine creation… and poof! It vaporizes! I love it so much, I might get it anyway… Gorgeous creation for those of us who love a creamy spice…

Nice bottle. Hated the fragrance – vague, watery, bland, anonymous. Soak yourself in it and you get…. a faint whisper from afar of… is that, snuffle, snuff, snooffle… cold cream soap? Eh?!
Look at the list of notes that were allegedly in this fragrance, this should be spicy, creamy, woody, rich and complex but it is just a vague soapy nothing.
This was my first Bond No 9 purchase. At £130 a bottle is it worth shelling out on another? I like the sound of Bond No 9 New Haarlem but I am going to have to forget all about Lexington before I take another punt.
It’s fortunate Kilian is usually very good or I might begin to think Americans can’t make good fragrances.

I love this scent but the bottle is sooo bad! Why did they not try to make it somewhat similar to the old bottle, as they did with Success? I don’t understand this bottle. I don’t like it at all. I know they were trying to get away from the girly shoes so that men would buy it, but this bottle is now the complete opposite and why would any woman want it? The scent to me is slightly more feminine than masculine anyways, although still very much unisex. Anyways, the scent is amazing. It’s creamy and rich, a bit gourmand and yummy, and great sillage and projection. I love the crème brulee note and the slightly manly cypress/woody note. Delicious. I just ordered this, but thank goodness I scored the old bottle! Thank you to the SAs who scoured the country trying to find me one of the last “shoe bottles” in existence! This bottle is just so bad!
