Well-blended, versatile, easy-to-wear, classy fresh/spicy blend
First wearing of Caswell-Massey Number Six (stylized with the roman numeral VI), a 2018 release that’s inspired by a much earlier creation purported to be crafted for none other than George Washington. This more modern creation features notes of bergamot, rosemary, neroli, lavender, musk, clove, and a resinous woody base. It has fresh, green, herbal, floral, citric elements that all blend together in a way that is reminiscent of other classic men’s fragrances while not being specifically a fougere, chypre, or amber.
It’s less dark and spicy than Oaire but a bit more interesting than 2571, in my opinion, fitting somewhere in between, perhaps making it the most useful of the three, with strong versatility, a good blend of gravitas and accessibility. Overall, it leans classic and is very nice, inoffensive but still interesting, not too dense or spicy, but still intriguing with each sniff. I think it’s a pretty great fragrance, and I’m left wondering I’ll want a bottle of this or Oaire after I finish the decants.
It’s EDP concentration and priced at $200 for 100ml, similar to other fragrances’ pricing, on the house website and a few other retailers’, and is available as part of the Legacy Discovery Set that I purchased, at $90 for 3 x 7.5ml.
