Glam up your winter
with Bond No. 9
Most anyone who ever visited New York comes back enthralled by a city that seems to take over your mind and spirit: difficult to describe, but nearly as exciting to look back on as to experience in the moment itself. It was only a matter of time before someone took this feeling to materialize it – we’re just glad it happened in the form of Bond No. 9. Created as an homage to New York, Bond No. 9 – with headquarters at 9 Bond Street in Soho – is a collection of scents that capture specific elements of the effervescent city.

Home fragrances: Scandinavian style
Swedish brand Byredo is well-known, but only in certain circles. As a company, Byredo quickly gathered a loyal following among fashion insiders and lovers of unexpected luxury. Its home fragrances are subtle but surprising, and its scented candles are many a fashionista’s favourite gift. Infuse your home with a little bit of Scandinavian chic, then.

Traditional ‘hippie’ fragrances
heavily laced with patchouli
If the word hippie only conjures up images of wild flower childs in your mind, perhaps you haven’t heard of Heely yet. James Heely set out to create a rose perfume that didn’t just smell like rose water. It would have to let you dream about India, the warmth of the sun, and beautiful tanned people with long, shiny hair. That’s where Hippie Rose comes in: a scent that has nothing to do with traditional ‘hippie’ fragrances heavily laced with patchouli. It is a fresh scent of moss and bergamot, rose, musk and amber: mild and light as a summer breeze. Even if you don’t listen to Jim Morrison, you’ll appreciate this take on hippie love.
