New York Things

It's tough not to be in NYC for the summer.  But luckily there are just so many New York-centric things to surround myself around that it helps.

Bond No.9
Eau de Parfume has an amazingly aesthetic collection that happens to smell nice too.  It "has a dual mission: To restore artistry to perfumery, and to mark every New York neighborhood with a scent of its own. Each fragrance represents a specific downtown, midtown, or uptown locale or a city-wide sensibility. With new introductions in the coming seasons, Bond No. 9 infuses the island of Manhattan with scents."  Pretty cool concept! 

Above are Chinatown, High Line and Union Square scents. 

They also have candles, adorable travel size spritzers and of course limited editions. 


Absolut Brooklyn 

Infused with ginger and apple flavors and matched with a celeb, Spike Lee.  $50,000 will be donated to Habitat For Humanity's Project Bed-Stuy.  To learn more about the product, check out their facebook page.
