Hailey Bieber may be known for her clean girl aesthetic, but one of her favorite perfumes is the antithesis of the trend. Although most of the Rhode founder’s perfume collection consists of soft, girly fragrances, Bond No.9 West Side couldn’t be any more different, which is one of the reasons why it’s a winning scent for any and everyone.
Bond No.9 West Side feels like a full-bodied, melodious symphony that’s layered, striking, and unlike most perfumes. “I like it because it’s not a super girly scent,” Bieber previously told Harper’s Bazaar of the unisex perfume. The fragrance beautifully plays upon light and dark energies. The delicate opening is reminiscent of a springtime bouquet with hints of rose, ylang-ylang and peony. The dry down brings a sultrier aura to the forefront thanks to a mix of sandalwood, vanilla, amber and deep musks.

This truly is one of those scents that works for men and women. In fact, Bieber stole hers from a boy. “The reason I know about the scent is because a boy had been using it, and I was like, ‘I like this for myself.’” She didn’t divulge whether it was her husband, Justin Bieber, who wore West Side, but from that day forward, she claimed the scent as her signature.
If you like the idea of wearing the same scent as your significant other, West Side is a worthy contender — and makes for a wonderful gift. The vibrant bottle, with its statement-making star shape, bright red hue and graffiti-like music note insignia would look amazing on your vanity, as well as your husband’s. And although gifting can feel overwhelming, you truly can’t go wrong with a fragrance.
You don’t need to worry if you aren’t close to a Bond No. 9 store, either. This is one of those scents that is always a winner, even when you blind buy. Dozens of reviews mention how they took a gamble by purchasing this without smelling it, and none of them were disappointed. Many even say it’s a “major compliment getter.”
Knock out holiday shopping for your S.O. a little early this year by purchasing the Bond No.9 West Side Perfume. Just a forewarning — you’ll probably end up wanting a bottle for yourself too!
