Launched in 2014, J. Crew No. 57 by Arquiste is an homage to Peggy Guggenheim’s groundbreaking The Art of This Century gallery on the top floor of 30 West Fifty-seventh Street in NYC.

The fragrance was inspired by the curved oak walls of the gallery and the aromatic cocktails served there. It opens with a mouth-watering note of warm, deep whiskey, Ms. Guggenheims’ favourite tipple, that smells of sweet hay, honey and oak barrels. A note of cinnamon adds warmth and spiciness to the whiskey note, making it sensuous and alluring. I get whiffs of oakwood and cedarwood that give No. 57 a clean, sophisticated woodiness. Labdanum here is musky, warm and animalic and gives the impression of supple, worn leather. Its amber aspect links to a soft, creamy note of vanilla, making No. 57 a perfect mix.

The drydown is warm, woody and refined. This is the smell of being in a library – walls warmed by sunlight, leather wing chairs, and a drink on a side table. I want to cozy up in that chair.

Notes: aged whiskey, cinnamon bark, vanilla bean, labdanum oakwood, cedarwood.
