Considerably Less Demonic than the Angel of Darkness
There can be no denying that Bond no 9 NUITS DE NOHO is very ANGELesque, which is *not* to say angelic, and I hasten to add that Bond's shadowy stalker is considerably less demonic than the original dark ANGEL.
Still, the fault-lines are pretty easy to predict: if you love ANGEL, you will love NUITS DE NOHO. If you abhor ANGEL all the way down to the finish, then you will equally abhor NUITS. However, there is a glimmer of hope for one category of ANGEL haters here: NUITS DE NOHO does not have any of ANGEL's strident purple opening. Basically, the creator of this fragrance cut through all of that repulsive moldy white bread smattered with grape jelly and offered up only the ANGEL drydown.
I find that I rather like this perfume, what was never true for ANGEL. The big plus for me is the emphasis on the white florals (big jasmine). There is something luscious and wonderful about this syrupy white floral patchouli perfume.
