Inspiration: Bond No. 9 - Greenwich Village
Couldn't load pickup availability
Metropolis Green Valley Village by Emper is often compared with Greenwich Village by Bond No. 9 because of its lychee, cassis, florals, praline, musk and mossy base. The similarity is profile-based rather than exact, with mandarin and watery florals making Emper's version feel lighter through the middle. That airier water-floral phase is what keeps this from reading like a simple copy of the sweeter musky reference.
Top: lychee, cassis, mandarin
Middle: peony, water lily, jasmine
Base: praline, vanilla, musk, oakmoss
Lychee and cassis open juicy and bright with mandarin adding a fresh citrus lift. Peony, water lily and jasmine keep the middle airy before praline, vanilla, musk and oakmoss settle into a soft sweet finish with a faint green edge.
Metropolis Green Valley Village gives off about 2-4 feet of juicy fruit for the first two hours then eases into a softer musky bubble. Expect about 6-8 hours, with praline, vanilla and oakmoss lingering close after the lychee fades.
Spring, summer and early fall are the natural seasons for Green Valley Village, especially from daytime into a warm evening. Brunch, shopping, vacations, casual dates and outdoor social plans all suit its airy fruit-and-floral style. The lychee, peony and praline give it a slight feminine lean.
