SAMPLE EXTRACTS
Chinatown (Bond. No. 9) ***** gourmand chypre
The endearingly plucky firm of Bond No. 9 has produced its first masterpiece … like a corner of a small French grocery in summer. A treasure in a beautiful bottle.

Hugo (Hugo Boss) ** unexciting lavender
Dull but competent … suggestive of a day filled with strategy meetings.

Gardenia (Chanel) * not gardenia
…a thoroughly unpleasant, loud airport-toilet floral.
