Yikes, Very sharp first spray and the middle notes are way too soapy and not nearly floral enough, reminds me of irsh spring. A real miss by bond.

After smelling every citrus-floral perfume ever created, I've found my perfect one! New York Fling is a clean floral with just enough fizzy, sparkling citrus to keep it from smelling too soapy. The...

I guess I am a minority here, but I find New York Fling one of the most wearable Bond fragrances. It is not a masterpiece (therefore a 4 rating will suffice) but it is a lovely fragrance to...

This smelled greeny-citrusy at first, but dries down to something very NON-noticeable, ho-hum, whatever you want to call it. At least it isn't sweet or soapy at the end. Not worth the $$$, fo shizzle.

the opening notes are too harsh, but the dry down is wonderful: smells chic, modern and expensive, not fruity, not lemony-green, not sickeningly sweet, but very sophisticated. Give it some time...

This Bond scent is supposedly reminiscent of the YSL Rive Gauche of years ago(before reformalation). In my minds nose it is very simular. I bought this one in the 3.3oz bottle and I love it....

I love Bond #9, and I bought this after only smelling it in the bottle. Mistake. It smells nice on the front-end, but on me the spicy and pretty elements dried off and left me smelling like...

This must be one of the best citrusy-clean florals out there! It's perfect for the beginning of spring and I suppose perfect for almost any occasion. It starts off a bit strong and zesty but calms...

I hesitate to write about so many zingy, citrusy, energizing frags, 'cause they seem so much alike each another. I feel I'd have to take a decent amount of time to compare them with one another,...

I love this scent! It is pricey but definitely worth it. I guess perfumes have a lot to do with a person's PH. Some perfumes that smell good on my sister don't fit me and vice versa. New York...

I love this fragrance. No, it's not a sultry, sexy fragrance, but I don't always want to wear a fragrance that says "come hither". Sometimes I want to wear a fresh,feminine and sparkling fragrance...

Not a bad scent, but not worth the price tag, I will agree. I think it smells really powdery in the drydown on me. I really like the initial scent, but the topnotes fade too quickly and I am left...

This is a citrus blast! Includes a bit of floral, herbs and spices. Fades fast to a light orange. Nothing special for the price.

Take a can of sprite, throw in some cooking herbs (ie. sage, basil, a sprig of mint), and a bar of Lever 2000 soap --- mix it all together and Voila! "New York Fling" --- it's wearable, definitely...

Another underrated Bond scent that I love! This is light and fresh and "real" smelling, with freesia and bergamot. It is supposed to be New York's "champagne" scent... it definitely is. I love...

I am a huge fan of clean scents and New York Fling smells clean to me. It is a soapy green floral. I love the drydown of this scent it is soft, clean and a light floral. This is a scent that is...

This is a soapy, clean scent. As usual, totally adorable bottle and a good scent to try if you are giving a gift to someone who likes "clean" scent.

New York Fling started out promising -- a light, clean floral with a hint of citrus. When it dried down, it was merely clean, as in "soap." If I wanted to smell clean, I'd buy soap and save a...

New York Fling - my guess is that the name is possibly alluding to a wild one night stand which had consequences...the birth of twins. However, these twins were separated at birth, one taken to...
