We knew we had a winner when one of our favorite bloggers named Chinatown by Bond No. 9 the favored scent of all of her friends. Most people have their own signature scents, but this one is the overall favorite of the Bond No. 9 bunch (and the company, based in Manhattan, makes a lot of scents, all named after neighborhoods in New York). It's so popular we bought it ourselves and overwhelmingly agree it's GORGEOUS.
We stopped by the Bond No. 9 counter in Saks on Fifth Avenue and asked about their best sellers. Chinatown came out the winner followed by a new favorite: The Scent of Peace, which, after a sniff, we also had to buy. It's become the one we wear every day (Chinatown is more for night, we feel).

New York Times article.
