The review
Bleecker Street scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Bleecker Street.
The Essence Vault sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Bleecker Street's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $32 per 100ml it costs 93% less than Bleecker Street — the cheapest of 9 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Essence Vault publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Bond No. 9 Bleecker Street is violet leaf, bergamot and pink pepper at first, iris, jasmine and guaiac wood at its heart and musk, amber and cedar at the end. The Essence Vault set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top

Heart

Base

- cedar
Violet leaf and iris over smoky guaiac wood, the most quietly addictive Bond there is.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
