A nice clean, but sharp fragrance. A little to heady for me but I recommend to others.

Bond's new fragrance for Fall/Winter 2012 "Manhattan" has a lovely bottle...a gorgeous shimmering royal blue with red Bond stamps scattered all over.Saks description:

Notes of fresh coriander, corsican immortelle, spicy nutmeg, juicy Italian bergamot, gold saffron, gourmand gingerbread, cashmere wood, french genet, provence star jasmine, cistus flower, gourmand red plum, breches honey, rare agarwood, oriental musk, creamy sandalwood and suede.

I really wanted to love this as the notes seemed incredible, esp. the gingerbread. However I cannot get past a cigarette smoke type smell. A sales person from Saks also picked up the same thing I was detecting. It's really confusing and does not seem to last long on my skin either. On to try other Bond's!
