I Love New York Earth Day Bond No 9 for women

There's nothing green on "I love NY - Earth Day". All you get is a quite linear floral fragrance focused on the tuberose note.
If you enjoy this note, it may be your cup of tea, since "Earth Day" lasts a really long time and has almost no evolution.

I did a side by side comparison of I Love New York Earth Day and Carnal Flower, since both are powerful green tuberose fragrances. I Love New York Earth Day is more homogeneous, exceedingly smooth, and the green aspect here is sweeter and translucent, though the fragrance overall is declarative and a great projector.

Pronounced as it is, Earth day has zero sharp edges and rough spots. It's not even grounded next to Carnal Flower. It's more like a luminous tuberose liquid, or something that hovers in the air.I find it to be an extremely wearable floral with great longevity, but after a time, something subtly generic/synthetic-smelling emerges in the base, which makes me lean in favor of Carnal Flower's superior ingredients and crisp, articulated profile. Synthetic hues have no place in this particular green soliflore. Over time, the smooth elixir quality of Earth Day continues to sublimate into an ephemeral and relatively unremarkable state, while Carnal Flower retains its dimension and unwavering decisiveness.

Carnal flower is standing firmly planted on the ground: High heels, ballgown, and hand held way out in front of her to "yield". Carnal Flower is majestic as #&%@! She's compositionally layered and dynamic, multi-faceted, sweet, green, vibrant, sparkling, rich, and you can not sneak past her. She's right in the middle of the cross-walk, with textural green elements containing an almost mentholated tinge. She warns you that you better wear her before she wears you; a challenge you gladly accept. She is daring you to dodge her, to get around her, but you know you'll never succeed. Better just to surrender. Alright, Carnal Flower. Game over.. you win.

This is tuberose, but not "smack you in the forehead" tuberose. It is listed as a green floral but I don't get any sharp greenness. To me it seemed pretty linear, the tangy citrus disappears quickly and then it is soft tuberose. It reminds me of MK Gold with a drop of MJ Daisy. Moderate silage and lasting power.

I was so excited to try this as a blind buy. I am a lover of tuberose, with Fracas being a longtime staple in my fragrance wardrobe and Jo Malone, Vintage Gardenia, another white floral tuberose scent that has been an on and off love. So what happened to Earth Day? One tiny spray on each wrist and instant headache. So sad! I find it to be completely cloying, and after 2 hours, still cloying tuberose and overpowering. Maybe I need to wait for the drydown because I so want to smell the musk, oak moss and amber base with my beloved tuberose-but I dont have the patience and I need to treat my headache.

This is a beautiful green, floral fragrance and is amazingly long-lasting. I wore it 3 days ago and the smell is still on my shirt! Its one of my favourite Bond No 9. Highly recommended!

This scent is a beautiful green wet floral with a very prominent tuberose note that is wearable by both sexes and has great longevity.

It moves me in the sense that it is more complex and evolves more that some of the other Bonds from the I Love NY collection.

Thumbs up...!

Bond no 9 I LOVE NEW YORK EARTH DAY, to my surprise, is a big tuberose perfume. I think that someone in the marketing department must have mixed up the EARTH DAY and the MOTHERS, because this tuberose would have gone perfectly in the pink and that citrus floral would have been great in this green bottle. The problem is that many mothers prefer very floral, feminine perfumes, which EARTH DAY is, and some guys may have purchased EARTH DAY and been surprised to discover that it's a friend of FRACAS, while they might have been happier with the resinous citrus mixed with lighter florals in MOTHERS.

In any case, EARTH DAY smells very nice to me, because and only because: I Love Tuberose (not NY)! (-; As I find generally to be the case with Bond no 9, the longevity and sillage are excellent. The tuberose is greenish, but not in the sense of vegetal, as in FM CARNAL FLOWER, which I wore again recently and decided that I don't really like. The tuberose in EARTH DAY is unabashedly feminine: big, billowy, and intense, but a bit less diva-ish than FRACAS. I like this a lot, but it is really and truly a composition for tuberose lovers only!

Most of the Bonds I love blending for some reason I could put this in my top 5 stand alone Bonds. It is very green and the tuberose is almost medicinal in the opening. Immediately the medicinal goes away and it become a green semi-citrus tuberose fragrance with a lot of punch a little sweet from the tangerine and orange blossom. If I didnt' say it before I will say it again. The Bond event is on it's way and I may be getting a bottle of this.

I got some samples of this at a department store. It is definitely a crisp floral green, with a lot of florals and a little citrus. It's what I would describe as being "perfumy", with some very sharp notes.. However, it did last a while on my skin. Normally, I like Bond No. 9's. I don't find this one special or unique, though.
