If Brooklyn has a scent, what does Fresno smell like?
A company called Bond No. 9 is putting out a new fragrance called Brooklyn. I never thought of that New York borough as conjuring up delicate and enticing scents -- of grapefruit, cardamom, cypress, cedar and leather -- let alone in this 100 milliliter, graffiti-marked bottle at a $220 price tag.
But it got me wondering ... What would a fragrance called Fresno smell like? And what would the bottle look like?


Comments:
Fresno (the scent) should smell like orange blossoms in April and the bottle should look like either the old Water Tower, the City Hall, or maybe the top of the Tower Theater ~ It wouldn't surprise me if someone actually came up with that!

Fresno would smell like water evaporating off of hot asphalt on a warm summer day. The bottle should definately look like the Fresno Water Tower.

I agree it would look like the water tower and it would smell of a combination of fog, sweat, aqua net, and broken dreams.
