I've been on the hunt for the perfect "beach" perfume. I love Bobbi Brown Beach but the longevity just isn't there for me. I read reviews on Fire Island and bought it without trying it. I'm...

Fire Island smells like a suntan lotion (any brand) and clean laundry. I did not have the opportunity to try this scent beforehand, and because of the mixed reviews here I expected to either love...

So, here it is. I am definitely not as familiar with niche perfumes as many of the reviewers at MUA. I have tried a few different things from a few niche brands. Also, I don't really have a...

If you stay with me on this dreamy beach today, I'll hug you gently and I'll cover you with salty musky kisses under the brightest sun. You'll be fine and you won't bother the sweat coming from...

Unique. Warm. Sensual. Sexy. Fresh. Quite possibly is my new favorite from Bond over West Side. It's a unisex tuberose skin scent with clean musk at the dry down. After getting a sample I...

Price of this alone is prohibitive. I was also lucky enough to score a sample size of this. I do love tihs as a summer fragrance and it does in fact smell so much like Coppertone! But now that I...

Thankfully, I got a $4 sample of this and didn't invest the $$$$ that a full bottle costs. Yes, it does smell like Coppertone. But my question is, why not just buy a bottle of Coppertone for...

Aside from Chinatown, this is the only other Bond No.9 I've sampled so far. It isn't bad--it does smell like suntan lotion, but not like suntan lotion straight from the bottle. It has this odd...

When I graduated HS in the early 60's this is the suntan lotion I recall. For the Bond #9's this scent is tolerable, only for that reason. I abhor the other #9's. This then turns dirty smelling...

The notes in this are blended well but the predominant note that lingers aannnndddd lingers is cardamon, which is a very odd loud note in a beachy fragrance. I was expecting to adore this and I...

*cough* *cough* *sneeze* *cough* worst perfume I have ever tested in my life! It seems like some kind of chemical cleaner and made me sick to my stomach and set off my allergies. I feel like...

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Fire Island! Everytime I spray it on, I smile. This fragrance smells like beach and suntan oil. At first it is spicy but then it gets more soft. After a couple hours the smell of...

I like this scent. It has a suntan lotion/beachy smell. IMHO not worth the price tag so I wouldn't purchase a bottle. However, I have used all my free samples. It also has no staying power so I...

Well, probably one of the best Bond's I tried so far. And I do not like it that much (that say it all about the Bond's) Smells like summer; yes, the beach, a salty water note (but NOT aquatic,...

Ambre Solaire + Salt + Hint of Flower = Comforting beach scent. I like it. I don't think it's worth the price tag but still very pleasant.

I wish I could find a Bond to love, if for no other reason than I love the bottle. They do not seem to be terribly original in their formulas - I could achieve the same effect of this scent if I...

I've never been a fan of Bond No. 9's fragrances. Not because of the scents themselves, but because I think the whole conceit of the brand is gimmicky. Seriously, what's next? Madison Sq. Dog...
