Bond No.9 Governors Island Eau de parfum – An Enchanted Forest Escape in a Bottle
Lose yourself in the rich, mystical woods of Bond No.9 Governors Island, now available in a 5 ml sample from Scents Angel. Inspired by New York’s secluded island paradise just minutes away from Manhattan’s bustle, this unisex fragrance is both serene and intensely seductive. It captures the essence of nature, privacy, and wild elegance in one unforgettable scent.
Bond No.9 has long been known for creating fragrances that embody the soul of New York City’s neighborhoods, and Governors Island is no exception. This composition takes you to a lush, wooded retreat filled with ancient trees, mossy trails, and a sense of timelessness. Warm, smoky, and slightly resinous, this scent speaks to the adventurer in all of us—the one craving stillness and depth beyond city lights.
🪵 Scent Profile – Smoky. Resinous. Alluring.
-
Top Note: Incense
-
Heart Notes: Cedarwood, Vetiver
-
Base Notes: Ambroxan, White Musk, Resinous Labdanum
Bond No.9 Governors Island opens with an aromatic cloud of incense—mysterious and instantly meditative. The scent is cool yet smoldering, like walking into an old forest chapel hidden deep in the woods. Soon, the heart reveals a commanding cedarwood paired with earthy vetiver, evoking tree bark, sun-warmed timber, and the quiet power of nature. These heart notes add both structure and raw elegance to the fragrance.
The base is where Governors Island truly settles into its signature magic. Ambroxan delivers smooth, slightly salty warmth, while labdanum—a deep, resinous note—wraps the skin in a balsamic, leathery hug. White musk gives the whole composition a clean finish, like a breath of cool air at dusk. The result? A sensual, long-lasting scent that feels modern, natural, and deeply personal.
🌲 Who Is It For?
-
Perfect for lovers of woody, resinous, or incense-based fragrances
-
Designed for both men and women who enjoy unisex scents with complexity
-
Ideal for those who seek grounding, comforting fragrances that evolve throughout the day
Bond No.9 Governors Island is for the urban soul seeking moments of stillness and grounding. Whether you’re walking through the park at dawn or hosting a fireside gathering at night, this fragrance lends an air of mystery and confidence. It’s an intimate scent, never loud, but always memorable.
🕰️ Longevity, Sillage & Performance
-
Longevity: 8+ hours – exceptional staying power that clings beautifully to skin and fabric
-
Sillage: Moderate to strong – leaves a smoky, resinous trail without being overpowering
-
Projection: Medium – just enough to captivate without overwhelming
This fragrance shines in cooler months—think crisp fall mornings and cold winter nights—but can also provide a warming contrast on breezy spring evenings. Ideal for evening wear, special occasions, or even reflective solo moments when you want to be transported.
🎯 Why Try the 5 ml Sample?
At Scents Angel, we understand that choosing a fragrance is deeply personal. That’s why we offer this stunning scent in a 5 ml sample, decanted directly from the original Bond No.9 bottle. Experience the luxurious, full-bodied complexity of Governors Island without the full-size commitment. It’s the perfect size to test on your skin, layer with other scents, or bring with you for on-the-go wear.
Our hand-poured atomizers are compact, high-quality, and made for exploration. This way, you can try multiple niche fragrances before you find the one that speaks to your soul.
🎁 When to Wear It
Bond No.9 Governors Island is a mood. Wear it when you want to feel grounded yet powerful. It’s excellent for nighttime outings, intimate gatherings, and anytime you want to feel connected to nature while living in the heart of the city. It's also a favorite for layering, adding depth and texture to brighter or more citrus-forward scents.
🌟 A New York Secret, Bottled
While it’s inspired by a tranquil island in New York Harbor, Governors Island isn’t just about a physical place—it’s about a mindset. It represents the idea of escaping the noise, reconnecting with yourself, and finding serenity in the unexpected. Bond No.9 takes that story and turns it into a scent that resonates on the skin and in the heart.
