Bond No. 9’s Newest Fragrance: Andy Warhol Union Square

Nothing seems to wed the realms of beauty and art more aptly than Bond No. 9’s Andy Warhol collection.

After enjoying the successful launch of Andy Warhol Silver Factory, Bond No. 9 will soon be rolling out the anticipated second fragrance in its Warhol-inspired series: Andy Warhol Union Square.

Described as a fresh green floral that is “simultaneously cool and warm,” Union Square combines Lily of the Valley, blue freesia, white birchwood, amber, and sultry musks along with green stem notes

Bond No. 9 drew inspiration for its newest fragrance from the Union Square studio where Andy Warhol created his series of splashy Flowers silkscreen prints.

For the diehard Bond No. 9 collector, the perfumery put together the Flowers Portfolio ($1500), which features ten bottles that each carry a different design based on one of the Flowers prints.

Impractical? Yep. Lavish? Definitely. Buy the Portfolio set if you’re a truly avid fan of this fragrance…or have the beauty funds to display these bottles in what would quite possibly be the coolest powder room in the world ; )

Andy Warhol Union Square costs $195 (for 100ml or $135 for 50ml) and will be available on March 1st from Bond No. 9’s New York Boutiques, bondno9.com, and Saks.
