I Love New York for Her Bond No. 9 2011

Very helpful Review
Love at Third Sight. Happy Ending in Seven Acts.
1. Act: At Mrs. First's bathroom: Expectantly, she sprays for the very first time. She scrunches her face. The top note is far too artificial for her: A somewhat fruity note, but undifferentiated, not the promised blueberry, but an association of slightly sour and also slightly sharp cherry pit aroma flour. Not uninteresting, but ultimately not convincing; the leather accord in the course of time doesn't help anymore. Disappointed, she sets the sample aside. She only doesn't pass it on immediately because she wants to let her friend test a Bond No. 9 as well.
2. Act: Months later. At Mrs. First's home. While she is looking for another fragrance, Mrs. First comes across the sample I Love NY for Her. She remembers wanting to show it to her friend and packs it in her bag for their next meeting.
3. Act: At her friend's place. Both Mrs. First and Mrs. V. spray the fragrance on. Mrs. V. says, wow, that's artificial and so intense. Mrs. First can only agree. She doesn't smell blueberry again, but this time she notices the beautiful undertone of leather earlier. Mrs. V. soon washes off the fragrance, while Mrs. First keeps it on all evening; it becomes more and more leather, and she likes it better and better.
4. Act: A few days later at Mrs. First's home. She thinks, oh, she can use up the little remainder of I Love NY for Her, the heart and base notes were quite nice, and now she feels like a leather scent. This time, the sour-sharp artificial cherry pit aroma of the top note seems to fade noticeably faster; she smells hints of leather again earlier. Mrs. First smiles in anticipation. As with both previous tests, she cannot distinguish the heart and base notes. They are simply the finest, soft, slightly spicy, natural suede in her nose. In this respect, I Love NY for Her has a nearly linear, quite simple progression for her: As the top note slowly recedes, the leather accord takes over, which, she senses, consists primarily of a very finely tuned composition of patchouli, rose, and sandalwood without being able to smell the components separately. She savors the fine scent with pleasure. For well over 9 hours, she feels wrapped in the finest suede. She feels comfortable and stretches out.
5. Act: The next day, in the bathroom. Mrs. First looks at the empty sprayer. She furrows her brow: Too bad, the sample is all gone. She tries to hold it in such a way that the very last bit somehow gets into the rising tube and pumps: A wheezing remnant weakly sprays out. Ah, nice, it's enough for a very light reminder of the beautiful scent. Mrs. First smiles. She no longer finds the top note that artificial. Furthermore, it only remains prominent for about the first 40 minutes out of well over 9 hours.
6. Act: Another day later. Mrs. First sits at her desk. She researches on the computer where she can still get this discontinued fragrance....
7. Act: Yesterday. Mrs. First receives a package. Expectantly, she opens it, pulls out a small pink bottle, and sprays - ah....
Conclusion: In the search for lovers, Bond No. 9 gave up too soon with I Love NY for Her. The lead time is longer when it only sparks on the third glance.

Aerosol greetings!
I feel the same way, especially with Bond and Montale; their scents often get criticized for their artificial opening. However, their true beauty reveals itself later. So, patience is key and a big hug! ;-)
