    What do reviewers say about No 6 by Raphael and Explorer?

    Citrus and smoke don't always share a bottle. Here, they take turns. Grapefruit leads bright and confident, then incense and cedar carry the drydown deep into the evening.No 6 by Raphael
    It's not trying to be the most interesting fragrance in the room. That's exactly why it works. Explorer is the scent of someone who showed up without needing to prove anything.Explorer
