Super Bowl LIX is set, and Fragrance Fam is making its official call: The Philadelphia Eagles will defeat the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans at Caesars Superdome, locking in a 31-28 victory and preventing the first-ever NFL three-peat. Expect the Eagles to soar.
And who will be the hero of the night? Jalen Hurts.
That’s right—Fragrance Familia believes Hurts will take home the Super Bowl MVP, proving once again why he’s one of the most electrifying players in the league. And when the confetti falls and Philly fans flood the streets, there’s only one scent that will dominate the city in the months to come:
Lafayette Street by Bond No. 9 – Jalen Hurts' Favorite Cologne
Recently, Jalen Hurts revealed to GQ that his go-to fragrance is Bond No. 9’s Lafayette Street, a scent that matches his smooth, composed, and powerful presence both on and off the field. If he wins MVP, it’s almost guaranteed that Philly fans will want to smell like a champion—and this cologne is about to have a serious moment.
What Does Lafayette Street Smell Like?
This fragrance blends fresh, spicy, and woody elements into an ultra-masculine signature scent.
- Top Notes: Bergamot, coriander, and floral notes for a crisp, inviting opening.
- Middle Notes: Apple, ambroxan, and vanilla create a smooth, subtly sweet depth.
- Base Notes: Tonka bean, ambergris, and rich woods add warmth and long-lasting character.
Bond No. 9 describes Lafayette Street as a revival of classic NYC energy, inspired by the downtown streets that cut through Soho, Little Italy, and Chinatown. It’s a fragrance that’s bold, confident, and effortlessly stylish—just like Hurts leading the Eagles downfield.
But let’s be real: Lafayette Street isn’t cheap. With bottles ranging from $300 to $500, not every Eagles fan will want to make that kind of investment. In fact, most Bond No. 9 perfumes fall in this price range.
Luckily, Fragrance Fam has the perfect alternative.
A More Affordable Lafayette Street Clone: Dunhill Desire for Men
For those who want the smooth appeal of Jalen Hurts' favorite cologne without the high-end price tag, Dunhill Desire for Men is a great Lafayette Street dupe that captures similar vibes at a fraction of the cost.
Why is Dunhill Desire a Great Alternative?
- Top Notes: Apple, lemon, bergamot, and orange blossom deliver a crisp, fruity freshness.
- Middle Notes: Rose, teak wood, and patchouli add depth and masculinity.
- Base Notes: Vanilla and musk provide a warm, long-lasting finish that makes it a fantastic everyday wear.
Dunhill Desire shares Lafayette Street’s fruity-vanilla DNA with a rich, warm dry-down that makes it an excellent choice for fans who want a high-quality scent without the luxury price tag.
Final Call: Eagles, MVP Jalen Hurts, and a Philly Takeover of Lafayette Street
The countdown is on. If Philadelphia pulls off the upset and secures the Lombardi Trophy, expect Jalen Hurts’ Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street to skyrocket in demand. But if you’re looking for a more affordable way to channel Hurts' MVP energy, Fragrance Familia recommends Dunhill Desire as your go-to Lafayette Street dupe.
🏆 Eagles 31, Chiefs 28. Jalen Hurts, MVP. Lafayette Street, the scent of champions.
