What do reviewers say about Number Six and Hombre?
Some fragrances want to fill the room. Number Six doesn't need to. That's not a flaw, it's the whole point. For the person who'd rather be remembered than noticed, this is the wear-again bottle.Number Six
The woody base is creamier than expected, not the gritty vetiver of its supposed comparisons. Cedar and vetiver together here read smooth, almost sweet, in a way that makes you pause.Hombre
