Bond No. 9 is synonymous with capturing the spirit of New York City, and Sag Harbor serves as a tranquil departure from the urban rush. Inspired by the quiet, historic village in the Hamptons, this fragrance aims to bottle the intersection of maritime air and lush, coastal gardens. Since its release, Sag Harbor has maintained a loyal following among those who appreciate aquatic-florals that lean towards the sophisticated rather than the overtly synthetic. It is a scent that feels both nostalgic and contemporary, designed for the individual who finds solace in the rhythm of the tides.
