For Mother’s Day 2008, Bond No. 9 is wrapping dazzling Swarovski crystals all over some of their celebrated fragrances.

My favorite of them is Bryant Park, with rose at the core creating a sensuous feel of femininity and a sense of warmth together with amber.

Bryant Park
Top notes: Lily of the Valley, rhubarb, pink pepper
Middle notes: rose, patchouli
Base notes: raspberry, amber

The unique Bleecker street combines gourmand and woody notes, while Nuits de Noho has a distinct aura of maturity and sophistication.

Bleecker Street
Top notes: violet leaves, cassis, thyme
Middle notes: jasmine, cedarwood, cinnamon
Base notes: oakmoss, suede, patchouli, amber, vanilla

Nuits de Noho
Top notes: bergamot, mandarin, pineapple leaves
Middle notes: jasmine, rosewood
Base notes: creamy vanilla, sheer patchouli, grey musk

Meanwhile, the Swarovski Stars Bon Bon Collection features all the three aforementioned fragrances plus Eau de New York (in white crystals), a cheerful symphony of fresh and vibrant notes. A nice scent to greet the upcoming summer.
