Riverside Drive by Bond No. 9 is a woody-aquatic perfume for men and women. It has excellent projection and lasts more than 12 hours! It's also a fantastic casual fragrance that you can wear all year!

The top of this fragrance is very similar to Green Irish Tweed, Millesime Imperial and Silver Mountain Water by Creed. However, after a few minutes, it become it's own fragrance which is incredible! It starts out very strong and then turns into a sharp floral scent paired with a high quality pineapple that is not overly sour at all. The pineapple smooths out the violet and cucumber notes that blend with a minty, basil. The basil actually makes this scent very distinct and interesting.
As the cologne dries down to the heart, the fruit notes dry off, but the ozonic-aquatic notes stay present; making the scent smell very refreshing. There also is some cedar that is paired with a chic rose that blends into the base of this scent, leaving you with a blend of cedar, patchouli, and oakmoss.

Definitely smell this one out! It is kind of expensive so I recommend buying a sample of this off of my decants page: http://FragranceTalk.com/Decants

  • Great review! :) I like this one too! Smells like like a forest with a little river too me. Quite natural and woody but fresh at the same time! I did not experience it to last that long but i have a little left in my decant (but probably just enough for 2 or even 1 wearing) I was thinking about plaving an order to your site as you know ship international. Is it the same 5,95$ for international (paypal says yes)? :)

  • @Kruemel952 thanks! i am glad you like my review! :D yes, shipping internationally is also $5.95 :D

  • Cubby, i´ll got a sample after your video, i was disinterested, so, i saw this amazing review, and i changed my mind! Great buddy, regards from Rio, Brazil!

  • @MrFabioconde haha! glad you liked the video dude! Thanks so much!

  • I have to agree that Riverside Drive may be the best of the Bonds that I've tried. I think there is something about the pineapple note that makes for some great masculine fragrances. Aventus and Donna Karan Fuel Man are both great pineapple scents as well.

  • @bpwool Totally! Something about a well done pineapple makes a fragrance really stand out. There are many pineapple scents; however, that give off a terrible acidic vibe. :) But this one did a really good job of playing up the best parts of pineapple :D

see all

  • Would anyone recommend buying bond bottles from amazon? 1.7 for $120.....I don't want to get stuck with a fake

  • whats the name of the music thanks

  • nice one, cubby ! i checked this out some time ago, but was a lil unsure... it will be one to go back to and have grow on me like a lot of other scents.

  • Cubby, you have a knack here: in less than 3 minutes, you managed to make a fragrance undeniably appealing with your description of it, from top to drydown! Had I not already purchased this earlier today (I watched your video to reinforce my decision :), I would have bought it anyway based on your enthusiasm. You're incredible!
