Greenbriar (Cologne)

Caswell-Massey · 1984

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Caswell-Massey Greenbriar (Cologne) is a fresh men's fragrance that pairs bright citrus with a green, woody fougère structure. Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it leaves a quiet trail close to the skin. Most voters place it in leisure, business and daily wear, and fewer pick it for evenings or nights out. It opens with mandarin orange and neroli for a clean citrus lift. In the heart, oakmoss and sage turn it green and lightly spicy. The base of patchouli, musk and vetiver settles into a woody, earthy footing. Celine Parade (Eau de Parfum) and Estēe Lauder Lauder for Men (Cologne) have a close profile.

Lilac

7.8

Caswell-Massey · 2018

Fresh · Floral · Green

Caswell-Massey Lilac is a fresh, floral and green fragrance for women, pairing lilac with the coolness of leaf green. Taken as a whole, lilac and lily of the valley come forward, drawing a floral, gently sweet frame. Leaf green and bergamot zest keep that floral air bright and lively, adding a fruity shimmer. Musk, amber and suede sit in the background, softening the scent and settling it onto a smooth, lightly warm base. The result is a garden-like floral that stays light, with its sweetness kept in check.

Almond

7.4

Caswell-Massey · 2017

Fruity · Sweet · Synthetic

Caswell-Massey Almond is a unisex fragrance with a fruity, sweet, gourmand character, softened by creamy and powdery tones. Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are a first impression more than a firm verdict. There is nothing to say about preferred seasons or occasions. It opens with salty notes, then cherry and almond blossom come forward. In the base, sandalwood and tonka bean round off the sweetness and settle it into a creamy footing. Oriental and animal accords stay in the background and add a little warmth to the gourmand feel. Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal pour Homme Le Parfum and Rue Madam Cotton Vanilla have a similar profile.

VI / Number Six (Eau de Parfum)

Eau de Parfum

Caswell-Massey VI / Number Six Eau de Parfum is a fresh, citrusy unisex scent that opens on rosemary, bergamot and neroli. The top notes of rosemary, bergamot and neroli give it a bright, green start. At the heart, rose, clove and amber add a floral, lightly spiced warmth, and lavender with white musk soften the base and leave it clean. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it is noticed by those close to you without filling a room. The ratings rest on only a few votes, so they are best read with caution. It suits men and women alike and leans towards easy everyday wear. Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza and Lorenzo Villoresi Acqua di Colonia have a close profile.
