Cooper Square

Cooper Square by Bond No 9 is a deeply masculine, sophisticated fougère with a strong boozy and woody character. It opens with a bold blend of cognac, juniper berries, and spicy aromatics, creating an instantly recognizable barbershop freshness with a sophisticated dark edge. The lavender and myrrh add a dry, herbal depth, while the cashmere wood and labdanum lend a creamy, slightly incense-like warmth. Over time, the fragrance evolves into a rich, resinous drydown of vetiver, musk, and amber, giving it an elegant, long-lasting presence. It’s not a light or casual scent—it carries a strong sillage and excellent longevity, making it ideal for cooler weather and formal occasions, though some find it too dense for daytime wear. The fragrance is highly character-driven and lean clearly toward the masculine, though some users note its appeal can extend to women with a strong preference for serious, intricate scents.
