Beautiful, but not for the price

First and foremost, I love Greenwich Village. I don't get the BR540 vibes that others do: to me, Greenwich Village opens with a note of fresh fruits (the black currant and citrus are juicy, and the lychee is a nice addition). It mellows out over time to a really beautiful patchouli and oak moss, and the florals (I smell the jasmine the most) neither overpower nor get lost.

That said, Bond No. 9 is an expensive house. While Greenwich Village has great longevity on me (sillage is only so-so), it's still difficult for many to justify the cost. It's a beautiful fragrance, but very pricey. I'd recommend testing it first (buy a 1 ml sample, wear it numerous times). If you really love it, try to find it on a trusted discount site or from a trusted secondhand/souk/marketplace. I love mine intensely, and I bought a tester because even as much as I love it, I couldn't justify the price of getting it at retail.

Fresh Take on a Familiar DNA — Lovely, But Not Worth the Hype (or Price)

I quite like Greenwich Village, but it’s not a love for me. It was recommended as something with a similar vibe to Baccarat Rouge 540, and I do think if you like one you’ll like the other, but Greenwich Village is more fruity and fresh - I think it’s a more spring or summer appropriate interpretation of some of the BR540 DNA.

The suggested retail price of this fragrance is absolutely insane however, and I would never pay much more than $150 for a 100mL. The lasting power on my skin is ok, but not as long as some of its middle eastern inspired alternatives, which is kind of disappointing considering the price difference.

Overall, I think it’s a beautiful fragrance but it’s not one I must have or have to search out the best cheap alternative to. I enjoyed wearing it in the evening before bed most, so if I found a mini or small decant at a really good price I might pick it up again but for now I am happier with my other BR540-esque scent profiles.

He's a no-go

That was the opinion of my friend when she smelled Greenwich Village. I got Greenwich Village as a small bottling with a purchase in the souk. I have honestly never interested in this fragrance. So I did not know at all what to expect here.

Unfortunately, a lot of things await you after spraying it on, but nothing good. I smell here just BR 540 combined with a load of indefinable fruit notes. I must say here at this point I do not like BR 540 at all, but when I read the fragrance pyramid I would never guess a similarity here. Unfortunately, Greenwich Village is again significantly worse for me than BR 540 due to this really penetrating fruity note Greenwich Village seems so muddled and not balanced. In short I find it really awful. I just smell saffron and can not detect any other fragrance notes here except vanilla.

It really is a horrible scent to me. It could also have happened an accident in the laboratory and all fragrance notes have run each other.

Greenwich Village holds unfortunately also like glue, on the skin over 15 hours, longer I could not test it because I showered. On clothes Greenwich Village lasts through days and even a wash has not been able to remove the scent 100%.

I give the fragrance but still 4 points, because there are certainly BR 540 fans who like that rather than me.

Fruity-cooler Gutelauneduft

The first thought was fruity, cool makes good mood and fits somehow always to the Aufboostern. Clearly the Ambroxan is a dominant ingredient, but is well packaged and suppressed by the many fruits - well so it is pleasantly gentle. The development remains fruity and tasty, with the vanilla and praline topping just very tasty, to nibble on. I find that 99 out of 100 people can wear it and like it, is such a good mood companion. After about 1 hour it smells like a fruit variation impregnated with white chocolate. See him more in spring and summer, for the cool season he lacks warmth and depth. Bottle in the great green-turquoise is a dream, the price is real olala and unfortunately not suitable for every purse.

Best friend on the enemies list

I tried Greenwich Village based on a youtube recommendation. It was only roughly described, so beforehand I only had an idea of floral, aquatic but supposedly very special. It was said to be anything but normal, but a looker/smeller.
Ok, here we go: Tester ordered.
First spray: "Uhhh very nice. Fresh, fruity, floral, aquatic, special. What is Baccarat Rouge doing here? Hi! You are very welcome!" (Had never heard of the comparison before/wasn't influenced by it before)
After half an hour, the drydown slowly comes: somehow it stings in the head. It becomes unpleasantly pungent. "Uhhhm hello La Vie est Belle.... please go again!"
But no: she takes out her club and hits me over the head again and again until I give up, dazed and with a headache. I can't take any more. I'm dazed.
After hours of beating, my two friends Baccarat Rouge and Aqua-Seerose come waving by from time to time to check on me. But by this time I'm already knocked out.
